Trigger's Guiltless Breakfast Tacos

by Trigger Mortis, Assassination City Roller Derby

The best thing about these tacos (besides the yumminess) is that they are salt and butter free, so you can happily swish your sassy butt around practice, knowing you didn't add any cellulite to it this morning.

Best Derby Dogs Photo Contest

Here at Derbylife, we're very pro-dog. Em Dash got a puppy in October, and Mercy Less just adopted a puppy in the last week! We've met a lot of great derby dogs in our day, and this is a fun contest meant to celebrate all the fabulous dogs of derby. (Don't worry, cat lovers, we'll get to you next!)

We've gotten a ton of submissions, and have barely been able to keep up with them all, so we've closed submissions. We'll get the voting up within the next week. Check back for voting later!

To start us off, here's one of Em Dash and Schlitz of Gotham Girls Roller Derby:


Six Reasons Derby Hangovers Are Better than the Other Kind

By Maul E. Mayhem #666

1.) Waking up with barely faded permanent marker on my biceps can be covered with sleeved shirt

VS.

Waking up fully clothed in bed (or fully naked somewhere inappropriate) with a suicidal feeling of guilt and regret that can’t be covered with *anything*

2.) You just had the derby night of your life, great people, etc. and you are jonesing for MORE but realize it's Monday and it's time for work, reality, school whatever… blah.

The Derby Crush

By Evada Perón

Let’s just put it out there…not once in my life have I ever questioned my sexuality. Just as I am sure many of you out there can attest to, at a young age, I knew what I liked.

However, nothing gets under your skin like a solid “derby crush.” If you haven’t experienced the derby crush…well then my friend – you have not lived.

In my short derby life I have had many a crush on many a derby skater. They have ranged from skaters I was absolutely terrified of to skaters I absolutely wanted to make-out with. How does this happen?

Agony Auntie Terror Answers Your Questions!

Dear Auntie Terror,

I keep spending all my beer money on wheels, many of which I don't like, and it's having an impact on my pub time.

Can you give me an “idiot’s guide” to wheels? No matter how many times the specs are explained to me, I just can't remember what’s slick/grippy/narrow/small etc.

Thanks,

Not As Drunk As I Want To Be
