this week's issue of new york magazine offers us an insightful list on 12 ways to remake your boring old self.

2. Shoot your friend in the face
3. Make as many sex tapes as possible
4. Be Gay
5. Adopt an Ethiopian lovechild

7. Cut your hair like Mick Mars and get on the Cobrasnake
8. Regularly go into rehab
9. Grow a moustache
10. Stop eating

12. Get a STD test

but one of their "commenters" also had a nice list:

1. Cancel subscription to New York magazine
2. Replace roomate's psychotropic medication with Velamints
3. File restraining order against parents
4. Hang around Time Warner Center in assless chaps
5. If you're not a celebrity, hire a publicist. If you are a celebrity, fire your publicist. If you are a publicist, kill yourself.
6. Bring a transvestite hooker to your family's seder
7. Challenge Kimora Lee Simmons to a crazy-off
8. Answer a craigslist ad and propose to the person in the very first email. Even if they're just selling a table or something.
