Slate V will... help you find the best video produced elsewhere on the Web. Our feature "Did You See This?" will sift and sort the ocean of content already out there and show you the most compelling and exotic videos online. If we do this well, you won't have to wait for that hip friend to e-mail you the link to the latest must-see "water cooler" clip. By putting these Web-video gems all in one place, we hope to help you indulge the voyeur within—and to enable you to waste your time more efficiently.Are you excited about "Slate V," which is --- we're told, in decidedly unhip language -- "an ordered universe of video, in which all the content has the irreverent wit, sharp intelligence, and counterintuitive insights that have been the hallmarks of Slate the magazine for the past 11 years."
ADDED: I watched this video, with Dear Prudence responding to a letter written by a woman who didn't like her boyfriend's dog. It was cutely put together with animation illustrating the problems -- like the sound the dog makes when she's licking herself -- but there was nothing "counterintuitive" about telling the woman she's got to put up with it or she'll lose her boyfriend! I'd have told the woman not to sleep overnight with her boyfriend. That dog is annoying her the most during the night. Just pleasantly breeze out of there after you've had your fun and let him spend the night with the dog. Shake things up. Or here's another idea, when the dog licks herself, lick yourself. Give him something to think about.

Is the recover time shorter for a hip friend replacement than a hip replacement?
That should be recovery time.
"Or here's another idea, when the dog licks herself, lick yourself."
And then lick your boyfriend, sniff him, chew up his new white shoes, shake off dander and loose hair from head to toe, and dribble little drops of urine on the bed. He does let you on the bed, right?
I think Emily Yoffe is wonderful and very funny. Her and Klaus's presence almost make up for the presence of that waste of space that is Dalia Lithwick on Slate.
Ann, I think you would make an awesome advice columnist! I think your suggestion to just not spend the night is perfect.
Slate sucks because it doesn't show vegetable porn.
Or videos of Ann knocking back a glass of wine while watching American Idol.
Boy, are they lame.
Sounds about as "hip" as when I was 15 and my friend's parents came downstairs to the rec room and tried to dance at the party.

This sounds every bit as hip as paying one of the cool kids to be your friend.
Seriously, what are they thinking? Mind you, if I were in charge of product placement marketing, I'd LOVE for a bunch of folks to fall for this. Captive audience. I'd pay Slate V big bucks...
I agree with Patca. Most MSM folks are middle-aged and that means they ain't hip in the least. Weren't they the company that employed Michael Kinsley forever? Talk about an unhip replacement.
Maxine?
Is there anyone home?
Have you come down with keyboard turrettes?
I thought blogs were where those of use decidedly UN-hip people who communicate with the written word could, well, communicate. Leave the videos for those who communicate in images. Never the twain shall meet.
the Ask Your Doctor About Tequila video is very funny. Thanks hip friend Ms. Slate V.
The piece about Hillary Clinton's image was less than nothing, on par with Entertainment Tonight.
And John Dickerson...Slate's political correspondent...what are his credentials, other than being handsome?

He covered politics for Time Magazine for a long time. His qualification for writing about politics is... that he's written a lot about politics.
In short, he's a blogger, only he gets paid.
...Miz Althouse, your advice sounds like the perfect solution. That is, the perfect advice for someone who wants to spend their dotage watching American Idol all alone while getting smashed on wine from a box.
However, the litigants take issue with the safety stance, given their allegation that DePuy began receiving adverse reaction reports as far back as 2007, but waited three years to pull the trigger on the Hip Replacement Recall. One attorney representing Tennessee residents on a DePuy lawsuit indicated he has clients who have had DePuy hips replaced as soon as a year or two following original surgery. For those having yet to require revision surgery, the stress and worry associated with living with a recalled implanted device and fearing the worst make for a very stressful time.
I initially thought that this blog post is about hip replacement surgery such as DePuy Pinnacle Hip Replacement but I was wrong.
i don't get it how hip friend replacement has something to do with
depuy hip recall
Interesting blog you have here. Thank you so much for this. I do wonder what makes friendly hip replacement differ from the usual hip replacement. pinnacle metal toxicity
I thought that the word unhip is relatively new, but I found out that it dates back to 1935. Whooa that's pretty hip for the unhip word.
I needed the help of a hip replacement lawyer recently. It is a funny coincidence, that I found the word unhip by searching about this.
Cheers.
