As Rusty mentioned yesterday, the season premiere of “Intervention” was on last night, and although I have not seen it yet it sounds like the best “Intervention” ever! And here I thought they’d never top Allison. (IBBB)

Speaking of must-see TV, just a friendly reminder that the most important television event of the century is happening later this week. That is all. (Warming Glow)

Alec Baldwin is considering retiring after “30 Rock” ends its run (Nooooooo!), and here are the reasons he should not. (The Playlist)

It’s pictures like this that make me totally heart the internet. (Unreality)

This is the most IN SANE thing I ever ever seen, even for Japan. Three words: fluorescent, tube, and fighting. Thanks, Badalamenti! (Geekologie)

Remember how I recently mentioned that The Evil Dead was coming back to theaters? Well now they’ve got some dates and a shiny new poster. (Bloody Disgusting)

There’s some video game called “Dragon’s Age: Origins” (which has never blipped my radar since it doesn’t have the world “Mario” in the title) that has a bona fide gay sex scene in it. (DListed)

“Good Morning America” has thankfully come to their senses and booted Chris Brown off their show, who they booked after cutting loose Adam Lambert — since that was such a great message to send and all. (Celebitchy)

Speaking of Adam Lambert, he says he used to have self esteem issues over his weight when he was younger. I knew it! I so called that he was a former Fat Kid. (Litelysalted)

Silk has rolled out their new holiday-themed Pumpkin Spice soy milk, which sounds like it would be delicious with coffee. Or possibly rum. (Impulsive Buy)

Ha ha! Jared Fogle got fat again! Unless he’s just retaining water weight from the eleventy million grams of sodium from his last Subway sandwich. (Celebslam)

Yikes, this is terrifying. Dita Von Teese and Victoria Beckham have apparently totally effed their feet up from wearing high heels. And that’s why I never wear anything besides ballet flats. (Agent Bedhead)

Here’s a list of the 7 Greatest Unnaturally Mutated Film Characters, but if you ask me it doesn’t count because it neglects to mention Belial from Basket Case. (Topless Robot)

Jude Law and Sienna Miller are back together, which really isn’t surprising because I think they’ve both just worked back to the “L” and “M” sections of Hollywood ass. (Yeeeah!)

I promised Jeremy I’d help out a good friend of his who has a song submitted in a contest for “new holidays classics.” And when have I ever passed up helping someone cheat to win a contest? So please help by voting #4, “CTA X-Mas Train” by The Snow Angels! (Chicago Tribune)

Today’s clip is destined to go down in internet history with Dramatic Chipmunk and Chocolate Rain, and also made me pee my pants a little. I give you, Surprised Kitty:

Oh, Intervention was amazing. Not only was she a complete drugface, she was crazypants too. Who the hell is allergic to the "electromagnetism" given off by flowers and grass? I loved every minute.

Also, my sister wears heels constantly and has managed to jack up her feet even worse than they should be, given the fact that all the women in our family have hideous feet.

Apropos of nothing there's a Brimstone marathon on Chiller, right now. Damn that was good television.


OT: Jude Law should get tested, immediately.

Posted by: BarbadoSlim at December 1, 2009 1:14 PM

Three things:

For those who couldn't read my flyer on Facebook, go to baked4you.blogspot.com

Speaking of games, does anyone know if you can buy games on sd cards? Or an easy way to download games to save on an sd card? It's a Christmas thing.

Finally, I wish I could see the surprised kitty here at work. Instead, I'll have to settle for disgruntled co-worker. Entertaining, yes. Light-hearted entertainment? Not so much.

(I heart gp.....just sayin')

Posted by: dammitjanet at December 1, 2009 1:17 PM

As long as Alec Baldwin stays until the end of 30 Rock, I'm good. I think his contract runs out next year and I'm crossing my fingers that the show goes longer than that. Hopefully with him on it.

That Intervention chick was stone cold fuck nuts. Anyone who expresses surprise that they lost some teeth from the drugs, while acknowledging that it says ON THE BOX that you can loose your teeth, is not right.

What was the ultimate outcome for Fentanyl Woman? I saw everything but the last blip about her being diagnosed as delusional (shocking revelation, I'm sure) because TiVo was changing channels and I couldn't get to the remote fast enough.

I think the mental health problems had to be even more serious than the drug habit, and she was sucking down fentanyl like it was oxygen, so that's saying something. I really hope her family got some help, at least, because I'm skeptical that there was much anybody could do for her.

While we're on the subject of going against all credibility in contests (not that I haven't started movements that have invalidated votes from pure influx of "I vote for Robert's book" ballots when specifically instructed not to), allow me to shamelessly plug the horror short story writing contest I run each month that just started again today. The site's all shiny and spiffy since I used web design to get through some horrible news last night.

Three hours searching through hex-code to match the site to the blog and I still need to fix the header image. Too small on a widescreen monitor, too big on a standard monitor. Sigh. Some day.

Yes, I voted for the song. I'm pretty sure with the 3000+ vote margin it's going to win.

Posted by: Robert at December 1, 2009 1:34 PM

So lemme see, some stripper that got pissed on by Marilyn Manson and an anorexic brit are suffering from self-inflicted foot deformities.

Nope, not seeing what the problem is.

Posted by: BarbadoSlim at December 1, 2009 1:40 PM

Sir, you should show some respect for Dita Von Teese. Women willing to get micturated upon by creepy dudes -- and, really, if you get your rocks off by pissing on women, you're almost certainly creepy -- are among the rarest treasures in the world.

Posted by: Tracer Bullet at December 1, 2009 1:47 PM

And now I have an irrational fear of fluorescent lights. Add that to side-by-side duplexes and decorative sidewalks.

Also, hello. You guys seem just neurotic and self-loathing enough to be entertaining!

Posted by: lolux at December 1, 2009 1:54 PM

Add that to side-by-side duplexes and decorative sidewalks.

I fucking hate duplexes. Let's make out.

-SHRED-

ohgodWHY!! the pain . ..

Posted by: Lauren at December 1, 2009 2:10 PM

OK, so you're not supposed to put florescent light bulbs in the garbage because they contain MERCURY. If you break one, you have to get out of your house and have a HASMAT team show up immediately. And yet these idiots are breaking florescent lights over each other's heads. Forget the blood and glass. These assholes are going to die of mercury poisoning long before lockjaw or pus sets in.

Posted by: BWeaves at December 1, 2009 2:15 PM

I did not see Intervention, but I saw the header pic and thought....She is kinda hot.


Now that I know about her I want her even more.

Re: Jersey Shores--I'm so glad I'm me, I'm so glad I'm me, I'm so so so GLAD I'm not a vapid famewhore with no interest in anything other than looks and tans and hiking my fake boobs up to my chin.

Whenever I see stuff like florescent tube fighting, I wonder what aliens would think of us if they saw it. Would they destroy us immediately out of fear, or pity? We're supposed to be evolved now, people, we're past the point of having to whack each other with sharp things! Hell, if it was personal, I could maybe understand it, but just for sport (and money, I assume)? What if that shit gets in your eye?

Gee, wearing heels all the time is bad for your feet? Who knew. If you've got bitchin' legs, you don't need disfiguring shoes to show them off. My mom and grandma always wore heels, and the results were scarring to behold; my grandma had to slit her shoes all the way around to make room for her bunions, and my mom now shares a similar fate, with feet that spread so much they looked webbed, and toes that cross over on themselves, and big toes that point 90 degrees away from the foot. Which is why I pamper the hell out of my feet and avoid heels like the plague.

Surprised Kitty is one of the cutest goddamned things I've ever seen. Makes my cats look like a pile of puke. Oh, what, like they're going to read this? They've only got access to dial-up from home, they don't have the patience for that.

Posted by: DeadBessie at December 1, 2009 2:26 PM

Hm. I have fucking fantastic feet and I LOVE my oh-so-high heels. The again I'm 5'7" in flats and have really good posture, So I wouldn't wear a 6" platform heel in the first place. I'd look like a tranny. Maybe these little waifs should take it down a smidge since it seems they just can't handle it.
Skinny bitches.

I do believe that every one of those Jersey Shore guys is a raving Queen. Now, there is nothing at all wrong with being a raving Queen, but these dudes are pretending to be straight, which is just silly.
You are a Queen if:

1) You wax your eyebrows into dramatic shapes. There is manscaping and then there is Diva.

2) You spend more than 30 minutes in front of the mirror before you leave the house, not including careful shaving routines for the hirsute gents out there. Do what you gotta do.

3)If you use more than 2 hair products at the same time.
a) If you cannot leave the house without said hair products.

4)If you have to be prettier than any woman you date.

5) If you man-tan to the point that the palms of your hands are the only part of your body that is your natural color.

BWeaves, I thought that about the mercury too. But the amount in a tube is pretty tiny. HAZMAT ran a program here at U of M a while back and made a big deal out of collecting all the mercury-laden light fixtures on campus, and I think it amounted to about a gram's worth of mercury. I'm not saying you should go ahead and suck on a florescent tube, just that the splintered glass is more likely to slit an artery and kill you before the mercury does.

What was really terrifying was that every time they dug new ground on campus for construction, they'd bring us dirt samples to check for mercury contamination, and we'd find some nearly every time. Here's a handy tip--if you can see more mercury globules than dirt, it's freakin' contaminated. And this was happening EVERYWHERE on campus. In places where they'd have no reason to find mercury.

There was also tons of the stuff in sink traps in labs, particularly in the dental school. Way to follow disposal procedures, dickweeds. It's a wonder the water supply isn't saturated with the stuff and we haven't become a nation of mutated retards...actually, that explains a lot.

Posted by: DeadBessie at December 1, 2009 2:44 PM

DeadBessie.
The amount of heavy metals in our bodies is frightening. If people only knew... Lead, Mercury, Arsenic, even Iron. It is ubiquitous.

Posted by: Lindsey with an 'e' at December 1, 2009 2:48 PM

If one of you guys makes me a GIF of surprised kitty for christmas i will seriously adopt you and feed you candy for ever and ever and ever

Alec Baldwin is considering retiring after “30 Rock” ends its run (Nooooooo!), and here are the reasons he should not.

If he does retire, he could devote his spare time to finding a way to fix that part of his brain that allows you to care about people.

Posted by: George at December 1, 2009 3:02 PM

LindsEy, that reminds of a sci-fi story I read a while back, about the last remaining humans who lived on the moon and couldn't get back to Earth because the moon lacked the metals to make spaceships. So they ate plants that took up the trace metals from the dirt, and then they made a soup out of your corpse after you died from heavy metal poisoning, which everyone then ate to concentrate the metals in their bodies. The circle of life!

Posted by: DeadBessie at December 1, 2009 3:05 PM

I bet the Seth Rogen and Paul Rudd characters from The 40 Year Old Virgin would LOVE the Japanese fluorescent tube fights.

Posted by: figgy at December 1, 2009 3:23 PM

If he does retire, he could devote his spare time to finding a way to fix that part of his brain that allows you to care about people.

No way. That would detract from his sex appeal.
Attractive things about Alec Baldwin (a list by esme):
-His voice
-His hair
-His body (he's just big boned, damnit!)
-The way he moves
-The way he speaks
-His sense of humor
-He's powerful enough to totally dominate you
-He's cooler than you and he knows it
-If you ever tried to get close to him he'd smash a mercury-filled fluorescent lightbulb on your head and run for the hills (or to Japan, whatever)

Posted by: esme at December 1, 2009 3:32 PM

Sooo, there were plants on the moon that somehow sucked the non-existent metals, and the best smelting process these folks could come up with was via anthropophagism?. Wow that is a fucked up book.

Posted by: Lindsey with an 'e' at December 1, 2009 3:33 PM

There’s some video game called “Dragon’s Age: Origins” (which has never blipped my radar since it doesn’t have the world “Mario” in the title) that has a bona fide gay sex scene in it.

/puts on video game nerd hat

So basically, BioWare, having skirted by Jack Thompson et al with the love scenes in Mass Effect, decided "Hey, let's really give them something to freak out about."

Seriously, I expected Jeremy Feist to pop up in that video and say "Hi, guys!", it was that blatantly homosexual.

/takes off video game nerd hat

Posted by: Smoking Crater (formerly Vermillion) at December 1, 2009 4:09 PM

P.S. The worst part of that Dragon Age scene?

After your character expresses a desire for a real relationship, the elf dude basically says "I got what I wanted. You do whatever the hell you want."

It is just so sad.

Posted by: Smoking Crater (formerly Vermillion) at December 1, 2009 4:11 PM

KITTY!!!

That just reminds me of this.

Posted by: Tra at December 1, 2009 4:20 PM

You played it too, Verm? That Elf Dude was such a bitch to me. I got ambushed and he turned on me in a second. Fuck him.
Well, actually I never actually fucked the Elf but I felt like Tracy Jordan the way I was gettin' Morrigan pregnant.

Posted by: Optimus Rhyme at December 1, 2009 4:31 PM

"I got what I wanted. You do whatever the hell you want."

Huh. That is what usually what I say.

"Put yo' clothes on Bitch, and make me a sammich on your way out."

Is that wrong?

You're a phagism.

@ L w/ an E:

Wearing the 6" platform tranny shoes is a heck of lot easier on the tootsies
(if one can actually walk around in them w/o spraining an ankle or chucking
off a curb).
It's the stiletto-y, super-high, pointy toe mondo heels that have done the
number on Dita and Posh's feets. That and rotating the closet racks a bit for
flats and kicks. Variety girlies!

Posted by: Ms MoMo at December 1, 2009 5:21 PM

JDW:

Well, strictly speaking I am sometimes a little bit androphagist, but mostly as a light garnish.

Posted by: Lindsey with an 'e' at December 1, 2009 5:38 PM

Yeah Momo. I still don't feel sorry for them. :-}

Posted by: Lindsey with an 'e' at December 1, 2009 5:43 PM

My hubby's 2nd grade teacher used to have a glass jar with mercury in it, and she would pour a little into each of their hands and let them play with it, BARE HANDED. You know some got absorbed through their skin, and a lot got dropped on the ground and ended up between the floor boards for the rest of the school year and eternity. I'm sure some was eaten, too.

Of course, hubby also made model rockets and once decided to make his own liquid rocket fuel. I don't remember what he mixed up (this was the 1950's), but he set himself on fire. Frankly, I'm amazed he survived childhood.

Posted by: BWeaves at December 1, 2009 6:15 PM

Tra, that graph is 100% correct.

I can't stop watching the Surprised Kitty clip. It's been a very long day.

Posted by: MelBivDevoe at December 1, 2009 6:48 PM

I don't feel an ounce of pity for Dita Von Teese or Posh. There is such a thing as stacked heels. And toe pads. And lower heels. And platforms. Look into it, bitches. I'm on my feet in heels for at least 4 hours a day and mine are just fine. Guess I'm just a tougher broad than they are.

Posted by: stardust at December 1, 2009 8:03 PM

Sorry to not be up on the current culture characters. Who exactly is that in
the trenchcoat, standing behind the Twiddlelighters? I'm so in need of a giggle.
Let me in on the tee hee.

Posted by: Ms MoMo at December 2, 2009 1:22 AM

MoMo, I believe it is Blade
http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0120611/

A Vampire hunter. Like Buffy, only darker.

Posted by: Lindsey with an 'e' at December 2, 2009 1:43 AM

...that is a fucked up book.

I don't read any other kind.

BWeaves, one of the lab guys I worked with remembered having a dentist who did the exact same thing as your hubby's teacher. Every time he went in for a teeth cleaning he got to play with the mercury blob beforehand. He always thought it was weird that he'd feel so slow and stupid the rest of the afternoon, but chalked it up to the gas.
