Bring On the Weekend! Bring On the Batman!

Our hearts go out to the victims of the midnight shooting in Colorado and their families. (People)

Happy Friday!  Do you have your tickets ready for the premiere of "The Dark Knight Rises" this weekend?  Or have you already seen it at a midnight opening, you lucky ducks?  I won't be seeing it for a few days, which means it's time to avoid the internet again (I won't be spoiled!).  

If you're in a Batman mood, take a trip down memory lane with this real-time review of Joel Schumacher's opus "Batman & Robin."  It's much better if you read this article instead of attempting to watch it yourself... well, better for you, at least.  (Pajiba)

Speaking of superheroes, these amazing retro art posters capture my favorite team, the X-Men, in eye-popping colors.   Who wouldn't want a "BAMF!" poster for their wall?? (Etsy)

Molecule, a new store in NYC, sells tap water.  That's it.  Just specially filtered, $2.50 for a 16-ounce bottle, tap water.  Choice quote from the article - "I think you'll have people who will start becoming water connoisseurs."  Uh.  Even if you add electrolytes and vitamins, it's just WATER.  Sheesh!  (WSJ)

Don't Wake Me Up If I'm Dreaming...

Good morning!  Happy Friday!  Stop sleeping at work and get ready for links!

One of our sisters over at Persephone Magazine has a great op ed on how you're never too old to conquer your dreams.  It's a pretty inspiring read.  (Persephone Mag)

Speaking of inspirational, this photo spread of "Bodies We Want" might have you recommitting to your fitness goals.  Or, it might just send you to your bunk.  NSFW for some tasteful nudity.  (ESPN Mag)

Feel Kind Of Tingly, Like When I Climb The Rope In Gym Class

Pinky McLadybits

Yo - Metric Jenn here; Pinky had an intro where she apologized for being crap at links. Well, I'm here to say that she's being too modest. She is cool and funny and better at links than I could ever be, as evidenced by the incredible compilation below. So you all are going to shut up, click on every one of these links and LIKE IT. Because I say so. And I'm smart and pretty. Prettier than Pinky, but that's a story for another day.

Let's start with a trip down memory lane. Here is an article about The Ren & Stimpy Show. Oh, Billy West. YOU RULE. (Split Sider)

May The Luck (And Alcoholic Tolerance) Of The Irish Be With You!

St. Patrick's Day is the yearly celebration of the day before the worst hangover of your life.  Let's get the party started with some not at all puke-inducing green cocktails.  (Matador Network)

And after you tie on a feedbag of bad decisions, and then inevitably wake up promising the gods to never drink again, pamper your tummy with this (really delicious looking) Hangover Casserole.  (Chicago Tribune)

In honor of the yearly bracket frenzy inspired by March Madness, Bleacher Report gives us the Bracket...Bracket.  (Bleacher Report)
