A recent LIFE slideshow listed the ways that New Yorkers are able to spot a tourist — from how slow they walk to how they gawk at celebrities. As a person who is planning on making a trip to the other coast this year, I felt a little miffed (codeword for annoyed as s***), because […]
I mean, to be fair, imagine if your job consisted of driving around in a a 1920s box truck with pungent gas fumes poisoning your blood stream while constantly listening to a high-pitched broken radio playing carousel music over and over and over and your “clients” were small, grubby children who handed you handfuls of […]
Rewind to a few months ago: the OBC team was thinking about a massive overhaul. A site rebranding, if you will, that would freshen the site’s look and feel and resolidify us as the #1 casual dating site in the world. Then we remembered one of the most fun, entertaining projects we’ve ever released: The […]
There was a distinct line at my elementary school between the kids who loved Sim City and the kids who loved Oregon Trail. I’ll be honest: I was a Sim City type of girl. Building towns and then watching them crumble at the hands of your hideously inept governing skills… it was AWESOME. However, I […]
Let me make this clear: I am terrified of the ocean. Oh, I’ll go in it, and paddle around and pretend to love the monstrous waves and the disgusting seaweed and the very real possibility of jellyfish stings and then a hot lifeguard peeing on my leg (that really happens, right?), but by god I […]
Good news for everyone at OBC! post-sex reading and strawberries. img @ momlogic When a Princeton lab group read up about a study showing that stressful, unpleasant situations could actually inhibit brain growth, they had a question: what about stressful but pleasant situations, like say, sex? So they rustled up some sexually active, booty-call-lovin’ rodents […]
In the rat race of life we are often forced to make sacrifices: style for comfort, convenience for price, taste for not-dying-of-fat-cancer… it can all be pretty depressing when you really think about it. However, the makers of Porsche understand your plight to have it all, though, and have finally combined two usually mutually-exclusive adjectives: […]
There are many awesome things about Sweden. I could probably have had entire post based on the awesomeness: meatballs, Ikea, globalized health care, hot chicks basically everywhere, and now, this can’t-look-away video of a cop being… well… very un-cop-like. While on our side of the Atlantic there are Roided-out dudes with little-man complexes, punching chicks […]
An argument broke out between another BCU staffer and yours truly when we came upon this hilarious headline on BuzzFeed.com. While you know we all have the maturity levels of 12-year-olds, we also want you to know that we enjoy very sophisticated, intelligent debates on the state of the American economy, war strategy, and if […]
It’s been a whole 3 years since President and Founder of OBC, Moses Brown, released his hilarious (and poignant) Booty Call Commandments, but their message has stuck around and reminded us every day of the rules of a great booty call! So when the OBC team decided on a huge overhaul of the site’s look […]
