The alley in Bethnal Green, London, where The Libertines' song 'Up The Bracket' was filmed that has become a place of pilgrimage for Libertines fans. It is graffittied with many Libertines lyrics and is close to Carl Barât and Pete Doherty's former flat on Teesdale Street.

Up The Bracket Alley, the origin of one of the greatest songs ever, is at Hare Row, Tower Hamlets, E2.

Holmdel Bracket

A traditional annual contest held and organized by the students of Holmdel High School in New Jersey without the supervision of staff members (who are aware). Every year around early spring, the upperclassmen guys brainstorm the hottest girls in the school (usually consisting of a female teacher or two) and create a bracket. Likewise, the upperclassmen girls get together and come up with the best looking guys. Ongoing for approximately a month, multiple "contestants" are eliminated weekly based on who's hotter than who and this is determined by hearing out the students' opinions. This bracket is posted and updated on a website and the website is taken down at the end of the contest. There are typically loads of kids carrying a printed copy with them in school and sharing it with their friends, but the staff stays on the lookout and if they catch you with the bracket in your hand, you automatically get a detention. In the end, you're virtually crowned best looking girl and guy of the school, but you don't win anything except an ego boost.

Did you see who moved up on the holmdel bracket this week?

If i start making 10% more, it'll be in higher tax bracket and bring home the same amount so fuck it.
