I once won a two-year subscription to New York Magazine for sending in a parody of Bret Easton Ellis' "Less Than Zero" writing. And I am not being modest when I say he is not tough to parody.
So I was both horrified and secretly thrilled to see he has a sequel to that book coming out, "Imperial Bedrooms," and that the excerpt published in Esquire sounds exactly like a continuation of the original.
I'm an entertainment editor at MSNBC.com, and have maintained Pop Culture Junk Mail since August, 1999. The New York Times called the site "one of the best places to explore pop culture online," and Entertainment Weekly included it on their Top 100 Web Sites list. If you like weird food, strange products, and 1970s and 1980s nostalgia, PCJM is your home away from home.
I have a brand new BOOK, written with Brian Bellmont. "Whatever Happened to Pudding Pops? The Lost Toys, Tastes and Trends of the '70s and '80s." Buy it online, and follow our retro reminiscing on our GenXtinct blog,Facebook, and Twitter.
