Skid Row (Foultone/Marathon of Dope)
Nobody can claim Brandon born MC Pip Skid (Pat Skene) is getting soft in his old age. Angry, frustrated and unsure about the future, Skene’s self-deprecating take on life as a disenfranchised 30-something doesn’t pull any punches.

Chatroulette Bingo/Drinking Game Only around a few months, Chatroulette has taken the web by storm. While the appeal of the face-to-face video chat is that you never know who you are going to be connected to, there are a few typical users that you are bound to run into if you spend any time on the site.
