Sometimes…we do this thing where we speak in GIFs. You recall a commercial or a scene from a television show or a movie and nothing seems more appropriate when chatting with a friend than to recall it with one of these.
This happened tonight in the car with Veronica and I straight up at the end of my story just went… “Ja feel?”
She hasn’t seen 21 Jump Street yet; that’s okay. I am glad I can rely on Giphy to help me find this gem again.
The number of projects and new start-ups that I post about on Yow Yow! are more than I can count. With four years under my belt, I’ve lost count. Yesterday, however, the paper trail that is searching on the internet led me back to a website that I used to go to for all of my new music needs. I posted about Indie Shuffle in Feb 2012. Today, I was led back to the website having not visited it for awhile because a DJ that I previously worked with became connected with the founder on LinkedIn. Being the curious person that I am, I visited that page only to discover that he was the founder and when I went to the About page of Indie Shuffle, I found my original posting of Indie Shuffle on this blog! Still with me? I don’t have that tool that allows me to see other websites that link back to Yow Yow!
…I should probably get on that. But thanks Indie Shuffle! The feeling of love is mutual.
Nothing excites me more than when I have the opportunity to stumble upon a new and refreshing blog. Our former Yow Yow! interviewee Molly Young was recently featured on Sunday Routine – a blog that gives us a peek into the Sunday routine of New Yorkers – and of course we had to feature it.
Check out her post here.
For a fun little surprise Google Image “Atari Breakout” to play this old school game.
Thanks Google, you are so sweet.
Throwback…Tuesday? BuzzFeed compiled some vintage photographs from Saved By The Bell back in the day of the cast behind the scenes. It’s a little strange to be looking at these because back when I was a kid all I ever saw them as were the characters they played. When you’re a character for that many years and that many seasons though, sometimes you just get stuck.

We’ve all heard the stories that it costs an arm and a leg to live in New York City, but that’s just an expression. Until now or at least if you knew someone that lived over there, here are a series of photographs of crappy apartments in the city and what they cost. This prized room above with intricate tiles? $500 in Brighton Beach, Brooklyn.

I haven’t dabbled in the Vine app yet, but the person who created this “Ryan Gosling Won’t Eat His Cereal” series is kind of…someone we want to be friends with.
Something that really excites me about these posts every week (and I’ll only say it one time and one time only) is that if there is ever an inappropriate title, I will try to disguise it in the best way I know how. Now you know my secret! Some friends of mine have recently been telling me that these Thought Catalog roundups are a favorite of theirs on Yow Yow! because not only are they interesting reads written by 20-somethings, but they also help my friends find perspective in their own lives. And hey! They help me too so I’m glad that we are all mutually benefiting from this. Have a wonderful rest of your weekend everyone!
PS I also forgot to mention last week that when I select these posts, I also like to choose ones that are kind of controversial. You’ll know it when you read it!
I saw this post last night being passed around on Twitter by my dear friend Kathryn!
And so much more…here!
