An Interview with Joe of "Dappered"

An Interview with Joe of “Dappered”

One of my favorite websites on the entire internet is Dappered. Admittedly a huge reason why Electrogent exists, I’ve lurked around on Dappered for over a year now and the group of people over there always put out great content day after day. Interested in the process by which a guy says “I’m going to...
Dr. Pepper 10 Fails to Appeal to Men

Dr. Pepper 10 Fails to Appeal to Men

I’m sure you’ve seen this commercial: some guy in the jungle tells you to drink some Dr. Pepper 10 and reminds you that it’s “not for women.” Now, I don’t like to get too sensitive about pop culture’s appeal to the generic male. I do, however, want to point out how badly Dr. Pepper failed...

As American as Adultery

As American as Adultery

The expression “as American as apple pie” needs an update in modern American politics, particularly during this election season. Has adultery become the new apple pie? Given recent developments, I’m sure most people are familiar with Herman Cain suspending his campaign due to the numerous allegations of infidelity and sexual harassment. What I find most troubling/interesting...
Pin-ups for Ron Paul?

Pin-ups for Ron Paul?

Pin-ups for Ron Paul is a group of women who sell calendars to support Ron Paul’s campaign. The photos consist of various visual puns, such as a woman with a large bar of chocolate with the word ‘government’ etched in it, demonstrating her support of “taking a bite out of big government.” Another photo features a women...
Movie Review: "Hesher"

Movie Review: “Hesher”

In perhaps the most surprisingly good movie I’ve seen all year, Joseph Gordon-Levitt plays Hesher: a violent, stoically-angry, pyromaniac, womanizing degenerate with a good heart who comes across a boy named T.J., who is recently grieving the loss of his mother in a car wreck. Hesher becomes the boy’s satanic guardian angel–responsible for both his...
American Crew Product Reviews

American Crew Product Reviews

Recently, the nice folks over at American Crew mailed me a huge box of their newest hair care products. They included everything from hair loss products to hair styling products, all for me to test out. I’ve already begun using a few of the products, and the reviews are in the works. I expect these reviews...
J.Crew v. Timex: The Field Watch

J.Crew v. Timex: The Field Watch

Now, I love J.Crew just as much as the next person. They are a great source for timeless, good quality clothing that will last a significant amount of time. However, because I pinch every penny when it comes to buying clothing, I often use J.Crew as a source of inspiration, rather than a source of...
Introducing Electrogent Version 2.0

Introducing Electrogent Version 2.0

When I started this website just three months ago, I had no idea it what it would become. I’m still not entirely sure what’s around the corner for this website. My only goal here is/was to create regular content and let the rest of the details work themselves out. After multiple companies mailed me products,...
