"Jezebel, for instance, can count on internet-reared 20-somethings hanging on its every rant." Really? Our every rant? Thanks, AdAge! Too bad it's in the context of being compared to former NY Post gossipeuse Liz Smith. More »

So another totally real and independent "tipster" has directed us to WowOWow.com today, this time to a slideshow of "Legendarily Leggy 40+ Women." "These women may be over the hill," she writes, "but their legs are definitely not." Um! 40 is hardly over-the-hill, and we're not sure we love these slideshows that break women down into their component parts (there's a tits edition too). We also can't sign off on WowOWow(owowwwooow)'s choice of leggy ladies. Cindy McCain in her weird yellow raincoat? Ann Coulter!?!?!? What's Ann doing with her hands here anyway? Thoughts? More »

WowOWow is like Jezebel for women who actually know what a literal douchebag looks like. And it can be kinda infuriating! One post today is an elegy to the "ladykiller." ("Most lacked money, status, stability and looks. Italian poet and adventurer Gabriele D'Annunzio, the celebrated 'Don Juan' of the fin de siecle, was short, 'ugly' and usually poor, but the queenpins of Europe fainted at his feet.") Um, we are pretty sure those dudes still roam the earth. Then there is this thing about how Hillary Clinton reminds the author of this one time she got dumped for a less-intelligent young thing and she couldn't let it go and spent the next five years writing "articles, nominally on other topics, but really about him and the way he dumped me." Um, and this pertains to Hillary... ah whatever. I figure if I can't think of a good way to piss you guys off today, you might as well check them out. [WoWoW] More »

If you didn't know how old you were, how old would you feel? This is not a trick question, but one posed by WoWoWow, the website targeted at old ladies, ha ha ha. Columnist Peggy Noonan says she feels 37; gossip Liz Smith feels 28; Joan Juliet Buck says 11 — she works at Vogue so go fig — and my answer is obviously "not old enough" because for eight years now I have been unburdened by the desire to lie about my age, which is why I'm glad there are old comment-whores like Stella Lazar still on the lookout for blogger cons. "I like the age I am — in 25 days I will be 71 — NONE OF YOU WOULD ADMIT YOUR AGES — you all live in outer-space!," she wrote on the website, adding snarkily, "And, looking at your illustration with this question I think you are living in the last millenium — it looks dated and terrible as do your photographs which are so retouched and most of them look like wax figures from Tussauds." For the record, Peggy is 58, Liz Smith is 85, Joan Juliet Buck is in her sixties (I think), and I am 29 with the attention span of a four-year-old, the liver of a Korean War veteran and the musical taste of a late-blooming teenager.
