GQ recently interviewed Bill Murray, for like the third time in his entire career. And you know what I learned? Bill Murray is the biggest, suavest, OH (original hipstah’) you will never meet.*
What makes Bill Murray so hip, at such an old age?
It probably begins with his ‘fuck everyone’ attitude he seems to keep at all times. Or it may do with the fact he loves Williamsburg, even though most celebrities live in LA/Hollywood. And the urban legend that he shows up at random Williamsburg parties. Or maybe this stunt he pulled at SXSW earlier this year:
He loves Indie film producers (like Wes Anderson). And he has a secret 800 number to call him and send him movie ideas. He has no agent, only himself and his super secret sexy hotline.
Either way, the man will continue to be adored by hipsters everywhere. Even if he doesn’t have plans to be Peter Venkman in a Ghostbusters 3.
*Although supposedly another urban legend, this will happen: You will meet him in a brief encounter, alone on a Williamsburg street. He will come from behind, saying “guess who!” while simultaneously covering your eyes. You will turn around, and be shocked to see actor slash comedian Bill Murray, not your non-boyfriend boyfriend Eric. With a gleam in his eye he will utter “No one will ever believe you” and disappear into the sketchily hip Williamsburg night, never to be seen by you again.
His response to this accusation in an interview will be the following:
[long pause] I know. I know, I know, I know. I’ve heard about that from a lot of people. A lot of people. I don’t know what to say. There’s probably a really appropriate thing to say. Something exactly and just perfectly right. [long beat, and then he breaks into a huge grin] But by God, it sounds crazy, doesn’t it? Just so crazy and unlikely and unusual?
That lovable jokester bastard. Make a Rushmore 2 plz. Thanks,

Old Jews Go Gaga
Whats the deal with old jews loving Lady Gaga? My mother… Larry King… That rabbi… It’s kind of sick. I’m grossed out. I know all we do it blog about old jewish ppl, but this draws the line. I feel like Im a smut peddler with all the bad videos we’ve been showing recently. I swear after the holidays we won’t have two of these videos in the same day.
