This dude—and now submissions—present excavated files from old computers and comment on them. Mostly stuff people wrote in high school that they now make fun of. Good times.

"The Playboy Interview: Sean Combs"- Playboy →
A pretty fascinating character. Marty is one of his favorite movies, and that didn’t surprise me at all, partly because of what he’s changed about our perception of rappers.

“It’s a Wonderful Life is a terrifying, asphyxiating story about growing up and relinquishing your dreams, of seeing your father driven to the grave before his time, of living among bitter, small-minded people. It is a story of being trapped, of compromising, of watching others move ahead and away, of becoming so filled with rage that you verbally abuse your children, their teacher and your...
