The Hell with the Beatles, Today is Danny DeVito Day!

Danny DeVito has immediately just become my favorite celebrity using twitter. Oh, and good news, he’s got facebook, too! And he’s also completely shirtless in both places, natch. (Gordon and the Whale)

Aww, even though Zach Galifianakis is now famous, he’s still doing his cute little “Between Two Ferns” web series. Here he is with Charlize Theron. (Popoholic)

Wanna know why all us girls hate Megan Fox so much? This is why. This is why right here. Now stop asking. (Webster’s)

Who wants to win a Beatles lithograph? You do, that’s who. (Agent Bedhead)

Apparently C-3PO had a double life completely independent of the Star Wars films, and here is a glimpse into it. (Topless Robot)

If you enjoy A&E programming about totally fucked-up people such as “Intervention” and “Obsessed” — you are going to love “Hoarders.” I haven’t seen it yet, but it looks A-MAH-ZING. (Warming Glow)

Here’s a bunch of people being lame by trying to recreate the printer smash scene in Office Space, which will probably make you like the movie less from here forward just by watching them. (mental floss)

This is the best review of Enemy of the State that has ever existed. Hell, this is the best review of anything that has ever existed. (Funny Junk)

Here’s a fantastic review of a short story collection, Reasons for and Advantages of Breathing, by Lydia Peelle. (Second Pass)

Katherine Heigl has taken a temporary leave of “Grey’s Anatomy” and not surprisingly her castmates are singing “Ding dong, the witch is dead.” (Celebitchy)

I saw Crank 2 for the second time last night at a club in Philly showing it on a large screen, so when this review of the Blu-Ray calls it a “patchwork of stupidity” I think what the reviewer really meant was a patchwork of awesome. (Rope of Silicon)

Here’s an article that laments the loss of the “craft” in porn, back in the olden days when people used to actually care enough to make an effort. (Gunaxin)

And now, a gallery of the most dangerous squirrels on earth. (Holy Taco)

This is the most amazing thing ever: Al Franken draws the United States freehand. How many smarmy, flag-bandying conservatives do you think could do the same? Thanks to Cindy!

you are going to love “Hoarders.” I haven’t seen it yet, but it looks A-MAH-ZING.

Oh boy. There are many "Hoarders" lovers around here. It just takes them a while to comment because they have to sift through the piles of newspapers, dead cats, and rotting pumpkins to find their computers.

Posted by: branded at September 9, 2009 1:19 PM

Wait - how are we able to see Al Franken on the radio?

Posted by: Three-nineteen at September 9, 2009 1:21 PM

Oh, Charlize Theron. You're going to make me love you. Now talk about the sweat on your thighs again. Slowly.

Re: porn.

Porn stars can't act. This is why they're in porn in the first place -- they're lesbians, not thespians. I don't want to see Lexington Steele and Katie Morgan acting any more than want to see Jack Nicholson and Kathy Bates fucking.

Ok, that Enemy of the State review was freakin' genius. Reviews "set to music"? I think that needs to become a diversion thread pronto!

Ohhh you have no clue just how A-MAH-ZING it is. I happened upon this little gem and there was a lady that hoarded food. Keeping rotting pumpkins and squash for years in your living room? Eating yogurt that has been expired for over 2 years? Sure, that doesn't make you crazy at all lady.

And the cats...the fucking cats! I want to make a bet that there is at least one, if not multiple, cats in each of the hoarders houses featured. What is it with crazy people and their cats? I don't get it.

Posted by: ashes at September 9, 2009 1:30 PM

'Hoarders' is like crack. I can't look away. Even though sometimes the houses are so gross with rotting food and animal carcasses(!) it kind of makes me a bit sick. Tip - don't watch this show while you eat.

Posted by: Jeni at September 9, 2009 1:36 PM

Oh God. Just wait til Snuggiepants and Lainey hear about Hoarders. Those two are OBSESSED. They're gonna start hoarding episodes of Hoarders and then go on TV about their hoarding.

I am so glad I don't get A&E. I'd never stop watching.

Oh, Megan Fox. She just won't stop, will she? Just another attempt at getting people to exclaim "Oh you don't look like a hippo! you're gorgeous! perfect!". I mean, come on. Every 9th grade girls knows that stupid trick. And grew out of it by 10th grade. Except for Megan Fox. Because she's an idiot and an attention whore.

I managed to catch one episode of Hoarders, and it was pretty interesting. And I HATE "reality" shows.

Anyway, it's both unusual and sad because the stories did not have uplifting endings. People's houses did not get clean and stay clean. They continued to live in denial. And the families! Oh, the families. On the show I saw, this woman's daughter said, "It's the stuff or me," and her mother said (almost literally in so many words), "I choose the stuff."

I saw the commercial for the episode with the guy who keeps his dog's hair and felt even sadder. I mean, I don't want my dog to die. Like, really really don't want him to die, ever. So I can kind of see where that particular brand of crazy is coming from. (No, I'm not there yet, and please God don't ever let me get close.)

I love that Danny Devito is only following his three costars from It's Always Sunny... and Schwarzenegger.

Posted by: jM at September 9, 2009 2:05 PM

I want to see the Death Match between the OCD Hoarders and the OCD Neat Freaks.

I LOVED the Niecey Nash show and the British Lady show where they go in and clean some damn slob's house. LOVED.

I want a violent version where the Cute Gay Contractor who won't allow a tampon in his house GOES OFF on the Cat Lady's Bomb Shelter. And cleans that stuff UP. And has a breakdown during. And so does the Cat Lady.

God I love to clean!

Posted by: Stacy D at September 9, 2009 2:19 PM

Lainey and Snuggie both already watch Hoarders. We use it to kill the warm fuzzies after Intervention.

I watched Horders over the weekend and became instantly addicted. I was so happy that there were people out there crazier than me. It also prompted me to stay up until midnight cleaning my already clean house. I'm also trying to figure out what else I can purge from my apartment.

Posted by: DoubleH at September 9, 2009 2:32 PM

Okay Hoarders is great to watch, but exactly in that car-wreck-you-can't-turn-away-from way.

At least Clean House (((GOD I love Niecy Nash. Love her with a vengeance!))) got to the bottom of issues and left the people and the houses in a better state.

Hoarders has only had two endings you could call happy in the four episodes I've watched. Thats eight hoarders and two happy endings. Even Intervention has a better ratio than that!

And as far as the craft of porn, well, that started to go out back in the eighties, which leads us to the contemporary 'Gonzo' category, which rather refreshingly does away with any pretext in favor of a style made popular by amateur porn and sex tapes. I'm down with that. Watching pornstars try to 'act' for five minutes is painful and takes time away from the business...at...hand...(i realized the awful joke in that statement as i was typing it)

Hoarders is quite a ride. I happened upon it for the first episode and have been hooked ever since. Some of y'all might remember a little TLC show called Clean Sweep, where a cluttered house gets made over and the occupants have a bitchin' yard sale. That show was Hoarders Light. Gross factor aside, it is really quite fascinating to learn about the disorder and compulsion to hoard. And (perhaps TMI) notice a little twinge of it in oneself. Why exactly, do I still have that broken _____ from 1987? Why have I kept the_____ that will never be used again? I actually have no problem ditching stuff, I just don't get around to it. I had both a Great Aunt (hoarder)and an Ex-Mother-in Law (compulsive QVC shopper) who had the house-with-rabbit-trails through-the-mountains-of-stuff,as well as a neighbor with 14 cats, and I remember that whenever I consider if I need that ______ that has caught my eye. If I don't know exactly where to put it or what to do with it I will not buy it.

If there has been an episode of Hoarders that featured an animal case yet, I haven't seen it. Sure, a few pets here and there, (food lady had a small cat collection), but no 1/2 buried school bus full of dogs yet. I'm already in danger of someday becoming that 'strange lady who lives on the corner', I don't need to add hoarder to the mix.

Huh, I wonder if The Duggars could be considered Child Hoarders. I mean, Damn,that's a lot of kids.

Posted by: Lindsey with an 'e' at September 9, 2009 2:41 PM

I'm still amazed at how people have fallen for Megan Fox.

If there's a more obvious tranny out there I've yet to see it.

Posted by: BarbadoSlim at September 9, 2009 2:50 PM

Oh, Megan Fox, listen up. We all know you want to be the next Angelina Jolie, but it's stuff like this that makes it clear you will never approach that. You are, to put it in terms you'd understand, the fart to her windmill, the egg to her McMuffin,the Rob Schneider to her Adam Sandler, the Matchbox 20 to her "any band that's not Maatchbox 20."

It's just the way things are, and as long as you keep, well, acting like Megan Fox, it will never change.

Please stop sucking so badly,

George

after being able to read the article on porn (sometimes you can get certain sites through my network's blocker), I do have to admit that sometimes its a little too 'amateur', maybe a bit too 'sterile', and lacks some of that old school atmosphere...but what are you gonna do?

Also: I don't know much about Al Franken and I'm not sure I would agree with much of his politics, but DAMN! As an artist I'm jealous.

Also also: Zack Galifiniakis is great

Posted by: VinKong at September 9, 2009 3:01 PM

I'm going to print out that Enemy of the State review, fold it into a little origami heart and then lovingly place it into a Build-A-Bear Workshop unicorn so I can snuggle with it every night.

Posted by: Pinky McLadybits (aka Dangle McGee) at September 9, 2009 3:01 PM

Yeah, I saw Al do that on Letterman once. It is impressive.

Also

BEATLES!!!

I dont hate Megan Fox. I realise i might be in a minority here, especially amongst the girls, but I love her. She's outspoken, funny, i personally think she CAN act, she's a little bit insane...plus, honestly, the bitch is hot enough that if my boyfriend cheated on me with her, I wouldnt even be mad. I'd ask how it was, and if he could give me her number so I could indulge my sapphic side.

I say all luck to her.

Posted by: Nadine at September 9, 2009 3:38 PM

I don't hate Megan Fox. She's dumb. What a shock. She's an extremely thin person who still thinks she's overweight, so, not unlike many millions of women in the U.S. Not sure what the big deal is. Just ignore her, she'll go away eventually.

And I have no interest in watching anything about hoarding. That shit is sad and disgusting. Just wanted to share that thought.

Posted by: Slash at September 9, 2009 3:38 PM

Wait. Danny DeVito is on Twitter. Aaaand...following. Danny DeVito Day indeed!

Posted by: Kiddo at September 9, 2009 4:10 PM

I watched the most recent episode of Hoarders where the woman had a house full of rotting food?

It made me want to empty out my pantry, refrigerator and freezer of all food products and start completely from scratch. It made me want to scrub the house with bleach, ammonia and lye. Then follow that up with an exorcism and a group prayer with all of my neighbors holding hands around the house and singing "I'll Fly Away" at the top of our lungs. Then I wanted to shower for six continuous hours while being scrubbed from head to toe by the guy from the first episode of Obsessed. Did you see how clean his fucking house was? That man is to be admired.

These shows make my eyeballs feel dirty.

Posted by: greer at September 9, 2009 6:41 PM

That Netflix review is the greatest thing since the "Three Wolves" t-shirt review on Amazon.com.

I love Clean House. It makes me feel better about my clutter. But Hoarders? I don't know if I could watch that level of mess.

Posted by: MelBivDevoe at September 9, 2009 7:48 PM

Has anyone got a link to a version of that Al Franken video where the speed hasn't been ramped up and you can hear what he's saying? I'd like to see that.

Posted by: Dill The Devil at September 9, 2009 9:44 PM

I...I can't stop thinking of hybrid reality shows now.

Gordon Ramsay had this show on BBC America where he would make over restaurants in the UK. Now I don't watch any of his new shows but that old one was the Uber. I'll never forget one show where he went into the fridges and made those dirty biches clean every millimeter including the MOLDY rubber seal around the door.

It was...like watching your favorite team get a TOUCHDOWN, because if there's one thing I can't handle it's dirty fridges, like when that rubber seal is all caked with what-all, and when people gots drips and coffee grounds all over the freezer drawer.

If I could have orgasmed, I would have, I was like, "YES! YES! And you MAKE FOOD from there? Clean that! Make him BLEACH that bitch!"

So Gordon Ramsay is going to HUMILIATE the dumb fuck hoarders into realizing that in the real fucking world their precious treasures are garbage and they need to grow the fuck up and stop being a problem for someone else to deal with when they die.

And clean refrigerators are nice.

Hoarders. *gags* Just reading these descriptions is making me sick. I believe that seeing something in your own imagination will always be more terrifying than seeing it with your own eyes, but this shit may end that real quick. I'm not sure I could deal with it.

I do like to hear that it motivates cleaning, I may watch it some day just for that.

Posted by: Mick J at September 10, 2009 12:15 AM

The lady friend took me to see Crank 2 at the cheap seats.

I paid the piper a few months later when she cashed that IOU and made me accompany her to Twilight.

All things being equal, I think it was a fair trade, because I was shitcanned when we went to Twilight. Spent more time peeing than watching sparkly, sharp-teethed emo vamps.

I loaded this page yesterday when it was first posted, then I had to leave in a hurry and have just now gotten home to look at it.

So, uh. FAKE FIRST.
