Oh, April Fools Day. The one day of year when hipsters and tweens alike can come together to enjoy cheep jokes about Justin Bieber (which the teen idol is in on).

Pot Smoking, knee shooting, studio trashing. Watch carefully for TV on the Radio’s Dave Sitek and Yeah Yeah Yeahs’ Nick Zinner who appear as Raaaaaaaandy’s backing band. More

In his debut book, Aziz Ansari teams with NYU sociologist Eric Klineberg for a sociological overview/research project on how technology is changing the way we seek out love and communicate with potential/current partners. And of course, it is humorous.
