Frank Ocean - Thinkin Bout You
Since Frank Ocean cleaned up 2012 with my favorite album and favorite song (of all time, no less), I’m posting another song of his. I’ve already posted Pyramids, and Zach has tossed up Lost, so I’m bringing you something else tonight. Luckily, I could post just about anything off of his unbelievable piece of work, channel ORANGE. If you haven’t listened to him yet, I’m not sure what you’ve been waiting for, but hey, here’s your chance to fix it. I’m sure that my numerous mentions of him tonight won’t be the only ones you see this week as each of us posts our music wrap-ups of 2012. Here’s to you, Frank, my top artist of the past year.
Enjoy!

(Indeed, the threat of public outrage was quite real following Friday’s shooting, with even the official Mass Effect page catching the anger of Facebook users after they identified a dubious connection to someone who was originally misrepresented as the shooter.) The NRA has also gone silent on Twitter, with the company’s last tweet appearing on the morning of December 14th, which notified followers of “10 days of NRA giveaways.
HA. The NRA are retarded

As the year comes to a close, and the possible end of the world approaches (thanks a lot ancient Mayans!) I have begun to think about maybe one of the most interesting trends that came out of this past year: facial hair.
Just take…
