Pajiba Love

Ryan Reynolds isn’t dating Scarlett Johnasson. He’s just lulling her into a false sense of comfort so he can kill her. (Celebitchy)

AB is feeling kinda hostile; she has a “Pete-a-Palooza”™ in the works. Close your eyes before you click. (Agent Bedhead)

Evil Beet — you know common sense will get you in trouble. People just don’t appreciate or understand logic. (Evil Beet) Fuck it; A twofer: Ms. Beet’s take on the Emily Gould debacle. (Evil Beet)

It’s naked Tuesday. Take off your clothes and stay awhile. (QuizLaw)

Remember the time Bruce Li fought a gorilla? Relive the magic. (Popoholic)

Dear God — the Carlson wit is hereditary. Check it: Peter O’Toole eats Marcia Gay Harden. (The Insider)

Is anyone else endlessly annoyed by Christopher Hitchens? And here I thought a chain-smoking drunk would never make me bristle. (Slate)

You know, Pajiba is gonna vote for Obama. We’re linguistic cousins — a Letterman punchline in the making: “Pajiba, meet Obama. Obama, meet Pajiba.” Oh, and he was on the Big Show last night. The video, after the jump.

I barely made it through two paragraphs of that Hitchens piece. Oy.

And they have apparently yanked those Obama clips, guys. FYI.

Thanks Vermillion -- I found another. So, it's up, until it gets yanked, too.

First Robert Rodriguez, now Ryan Reynolds.
Who knew there was a silent "r" in jackass?

Jesus wept.

Christopher Hitchens? Yes. I am. Annoyed, that is.

But what about *you*?

God, that piece reads like a high-school paper.

I remember when I could stand Hitchens. No, wait- I can't.

I am in high school and I take offense to that.

But what do you except from Hitchens? He hates Mother Teresa. And although I'm not positive, he probably hates baby polar bears as well.

An open letter to Christopher Hitchens:

how dare you call yourself a professional and write an article talking about the current YOU generation, while alluding to the already inherent trend from the early 20th century? nice tight focus, you must have skipped the lecture on how not to cite subjective evidence when trying to prove a real sociological point. your abstractions are obvious, lame, and completely unconvincing and cliche. your hairbrained symbolism read like the epistolic ranting of a 13 year old girl's diary entry. also, you are a plagiarist, Time Magazine already made this point with equal facility in their recent Person of the Year Issue. jackass. i hate the fact that some witless high school and daresay college journalism or english teacher, in the guise of their hipness to navigate a blog, will probably print this article up and use it as an example for persuasive prose. you ought to be ashamed of yourself, sir.

"i hate the fact that some witless high school and daresay college journalism or english teacher."

If it's any consolation, Brandt, I don't know any fellow English profs who would give Hitchins the time of day in their classroom. I certainly wouldn't. Even his "Why Orwell Matters" is kind of...substandard; his most "scholarly" work gets a 'meh' rating over this way.

(That's not to say that someone WON'T use it...but hopefully odds are against it.)
