Random News of the Week, Featuring Action Bronson, Grimes, and the Creepiest Radiohead Tattoo Ever

We see a lot of really random shit every week. Deciding what to post and what to ignore is a constant balancing act that requires much skill, judgment, and discretion. Sometimes it depends on how drunk we are or how trollish we're feeling. Instead of simply letting these things pass us by, we decided to keep track of them and gather them all together for this post, which we'll do weekly, maybe. These are the kinds of things P&P writers email each other like, "ROFL omg WOW." Welcome to the party.

Nothing says "forever" quite like tattooing a portrait of a loved one on your body. Usually it's pretty tacky, but Wiz Khalifa and Amber Rose are cute and your argument is invalid #wizandamber4ever

Tyler, The Creator meets a heated toilet. In OFWGKTA, there is no such thing as "taking something too far."

Despite this being probably the most awful tattoo in the history of ever, you have to admit that it's pretty creative. Nonetheless, this will probably haunt your dreams for the next while. Sorry.

It means more coming from one of hip-hop's biggest stoners.

The MTV Movie Awards are known for bringing unlikely celebrities together. Case in point: Samuel L. Jackson, Jamie Foxx and Macklemore. The three were caught backstage, where they posed for a picture together that Jackson posted it onto his Twitter with the caption "Poppin some tags w/Macklemore & Jamie!!!" So, now that he's in a picture with Macklemore, Samuel L. Jackson's finally made it, right?

"Before we came to the 10 [songs on "The 20/20 Experience"] that he wanted and the two bonus tracks, we had over 30, 40 tracks," says Harmon. "So I think he's going to go in, and we're going to take some of the stuff that we've already done, and of course create more music at the same time."

Time magazine published their annual Time 100 List this week, and while there are some expected names, like coverboy Jay-Z, wife Beyonce and recent collaborator Justin Timberlake, there are some pleasantly surprising additions as well. Joining the group this year are Frank Ocean and Miguel, who both had phenomenal 2012s.

For each individual on the list, Time asked a friend or colleague to pen a note about what makes this person truly influential. Mayor Bloomberg spoke about Jay-Z and Stevie Wonder spoke about Justin Timberlake. Take a look below though to see what John Legend wrote about Frank Ocean, as well as what critic Douglas Wolk wrote about Miguel:

John Legend On Frank Ocean:

How fitting that he released his “declaration” on Independence Day. I think Frank’s career will be defined by his fearlessness and his artistic freedom. He has the talent, the ability and the brilliance to have an impact for a long time. He will follow his muse wherever it goes — he’s not the kind of artist to adhere to everyone else’s schedule. That’s what makes him special.

Douglas Wolk on Miguel:

What has nourished that tradition over the past 70 years, though — what has kept it not just alive but thriving — is what makes Miguel’s recent music so special: constant innovation, formal daring, unexpected sources of inspiration, and emotional directness.

Action bringing more of that gritty NYC flavor.

Daft Punk have taken advantage of every kind of marketing angle imaginable for their HIGHLY anticipated upcoming album, Random Access Memories. Most interestingly though, is their use of new social media app Vine to announce the tracklist for the record. It may have only been a few seconds but lord was it effective. Who knew you could use Vine for things besides watching a day in the life of Riff Raff?
