Apparently, "Famewhore" Is Now A Viable Career Choice

Because apparently people really love watching a famewhoring ex-politician talk about Alaska, Sarah Palin’s new show was the most watched premiere ever on TLC with 5 million viewers. Which sort of makes sense, because TLC viewers love clown car vaginas and the mentally ill. But seriously, I hate you all. (Evil Beet)

You know what? Why the hell not, let’s throw another Sarah Palin story in here because clearly I want you all to become suicidal today: ‘Refudiate’ is the Oxford Dictionary’s word of the year. Congratulations: you picked a word that was created by accident on Twitter as your word of the year. (Deus Ex Malcontent)

A found footage film from a camera’s perspective inside the helmets of three astronauts? And a climax more boneheaded than Skyline? Dark Moon is still in the script stage, but if we boo loud enough, maybe we can kill it before it goes into production. (News in Film)

Having already covered zombies, cops and aliens, Edgar Wright and Simon Pegg’s next movie is going to be about a post-apocalyptic wasteland. I can totally see this being awesome. (The Flickcast)

So last week, Taylor Momsen pretty much told the world that the only reason she was acting out was because her mom basically sold her into Hollywood child slavery. Well, now we have video proof: a three-year-old Taylor Momsen in a Shake ‘N Bake commercial. All of a sudden, those ads took a really dark and depressing turn, didn’t they? (popbytes)

After the Eagles thrashed … thrashed … the District of Columbia Native Americans last night, Andy Reid had a few words to say, some words that ended with, “How’s my ass taste?” (UglyFours)

So apparently some people think that there’s a gay subtext in the new Harry Potter trailer between Dumbledore and Harry, and look! They even edited a trailer to make it more apparent. To be honest, I always thought at least one of the twins had to be gay, so the Dumbledore thing? SHOCKED. Shocked I say. (Screen Junkies)

The first images of Spiderman: Turn Off The Dark have arrived and HOLY SHIT. I take back everything bad I said about it; between the gayness of the costumes and the fact that they’re fucking catapulting the actors around the stage, this is gonna be fucking sweet. (Topless Robot)

Just because they can at this point, San Francisco is considering banning parents from having their children circumcised. I really couldn’t care either way; my parents had mine cut off, and the only downside about it so far is that I can’t do scenes that require uncut models. (Zelda Lily)

Oh goodie, Mel Gibson and Oksana Gregorieva are in court now, with Mel saying that Oksana shook their baby and that he only ever hit her with an open palm. I think my soul just threw up a little bit. (Yeeeah!)

Want to make sure your child’s next birthday party is as emotionally scarring as humanly possible? Well, have I got the pinata for you … (Dangerous Minds)

Because dressing up as people who don’t exist on days other than Halloween is apparently tons of fun, here are 30 people who take cosplaying waaaaaaaay too seriously. I’m sorry, but when you craft full on wings for yourself, it is time you get an actual hobby. (Unreality)

Here’s a look at what would happen if Ikea made instruction manuals for everything. I’m sorry, but is anybody else weirded out by the little Ikea people? WHY ARE YOU SO BOXY?! (College Humor)

Another dog video? Yes, yes it is, because shut up, dogs are cute and I still need to make it up to you guys for the Jurassic Bark reference from yesterday, so let’s all watch this amazing dog who can do pretty much everything ever.

Excellent video. That's one smart dog.

Posted by: Jadine at November 16, 2010 12:12 PM

I've already seen that dog video, and all I can say is, there are a lot of owners turning to their dogs and saying, "Are you defective or something?"

(Not really, I love my dog!!!)

Posted by: MM at November 16, 2010 12:19 PM

and that he only ever hit her with an open palm.

WOW. Well, that makes it all just fine, doesn't it?

Posted by: Anna von Beav at November 16, 2010 12:19 PM

ok I'm bored and going to take the bait...

Yes because you must be mentally ill to be a christian and have children. You must be mentally ill to be patriotic want nothing but the best for the country. More articles I read here the more I'm convinced you get all of your opiniions from The Huffington post.

Posted by: BigTodd at November 16, 2010 12:24 PM

There are nine supervillains in the Spider-Man musical. One is an original, The Swiss Miss, who may be a drag queen. There are at least 3 Spider-Man stunt doubles for lead actor Reeve Carney. Two of them have been injured on the job learning the stunts. And Spidey will not be singing onstage in a pair of tights, so no ridiculous sock-BAM! action sequences ala the Superman musical.

Suck it, haters, this will be the bestest show since LoveMusik and will run at least twice as long.

Posted by: Robert at November 16, 2010 12:26 PM

So Mel was protecting their baby? That's one possible explanation. Anyone care to guess the real reason for hitting her? (Don't worry, it's multiple choice):

There was a bug on her face.

He thought she was unconscious.

One of his hands was busy and he REALLY needed to applaud something.

She was hysterical.

He was aiming for her ass because she's a dirty commie who likes to be spanked.

Bitch was talkin' shit.

He's a worthless fuckstain smeared across the human race who can't keep his racist, xenophobic, mysoginistic hands to himself.

Posted by: Kballs at November 16, 2010 12:29 PM

@BigTodd:

No, dumbshit. The point wasn't to call Christians mentally ill or... or anything that you're un-thought out blathering alluded to.

The point he was making was that TLC features the Duggars show and Hoarders. Hence, a joke about clown car vaginas and the mentally ill. HENCE, TLC viewers love...


Oh, fuck it. I don't know why I bother.

(Thank you Tommy for understanding how a joke works, and for taking the time to read into its true intention. You get a cookie! - JF)

Posted by: Perfect Tommy at November 16, 2010 12:30 PM

Ah, crap. I shouldn't have called you dumbshit. I take back that part.

'pologies.

Posted by: Perfect Tommy at November 16, 2010 12:31 PM

OHMYGOD THAT DOG IS ADORABLE I WANT HEEEEEEM!

Posted by: Anna von Beav at November 16, 2010 12:35 PM

I've seen much, MUCH more impressive cosplayers than the people in that link, so if you're going to be all "you take your harmless hobby far too seriously" you should really do your research.

Posted by: Todd at November 16, 2010 12:37 PM

YAY COOKIE!

Posted by: Perfect Tommy at November 16, 2010 12:38 PM

Don't feed them Perfect Tommy. If you feed them they come back.

Posted by: PaddyDog at November 16, 2010 12:38 PM

Ah, Perfect Tommy, you and your 'pologetic ways...

Posted by: schmerpes at November 16, 2010 12:38 PM

@Todd, I really don't think he's saying what you think he's saying. He's talking about two different groups of shows - the one featuring the Duggars and the show or shows that feature mental illness type situations, like Hoarders or intervention type shows (note - I don't get TLC and am not overly familiar with their programming so I don't know if those shows are actually on TLC. These were just used as examples). Really, you need to try and not be so offended at every little thing, especially when you are the one misreading the OP.

Posted by: elsie at November 16, 2010 12:39 PM

ok I'm bored and going to take the bait...

Is "taking the bait" a euphemism? I feel like it should be if it isn't already. Regardless, you've clearly and frequently mastered it, BigTodd. So, kudos. That takes stamina.

Posted by: branded at November 16, 2010 12:40 PM

Well, Dumbledore was gay according to Rowling so anything is possible.

Posted by: TylerDFC at November 16, 2010 12:40 PM

Kballs,

Can I get you a cookie or perhaps something stronger? Even grading on a KBallsCurve, your posts would seem to suggest that this is a paricularly bilious day for you. Maybe you should go look at the Cobie Smulders pictures again.

How can I help?

Kisses,
Mrs. Julien

Posted by: Mrs. Julien at November 16, 2010 12:42 PM

I am so showing this video to my dogs. From now on the lazy bastards are gonna earn their keep.

Posted by: Villain's minion at November 16, 2010 12:45 PM

The best part about the video is that the dog is clearly loving every second of it! You know, that's actually brilliant. Delegate all the menial tasks that you hate to your dog, who will get them done for you AND have a ball doing it! I need to get on this with my dogs while I still can...

Posted by: AnnArrogance at November 16, 2010 12:45 PM

Diagon Alley = Diagonally = Not straight.

IT'S TURNING THE KIDS GAY!!!

Posted by: superasente at November 16, 2010 12:51 PM

No by equating the Palins(Christians, son with downs) to the "Vagina clown cars" Duggars(Christians), Jones(quints by suprise also Christians)& Gosselins(alleged Christians) and to shows like hoarders the insult was real, and unfounded. otherwise why the need for a second story involving her to make everyone "suicidal". As a father of 11 I take great offense to these referances.

Oh and did you see Rangel was found guilty of ethic violations? Anyone wanna bet they don't do anything to him?

Posted by: BigTodd at November 16, 2010 12:57 PM

Yeah, that dog is cute doing all those tricks and all, but the downside is that it's a Russell terrier, which means you just know that all of these tricks cover about one-quarter of the time it spends relentlessly bugging its master to PLAY PLAY PLAY TELL ME TO DO SOMETHING I WANT TO DO SOMETHING OR PLAY PLAY PLAY (pause to ask for poop) PLAY PLAY I WANT TO DO SOMETHING TELL ME WHAT TO DO TELL MEEEEEEE TELL MEEEEEEE (pause for nap) I WANT TO DO SOMETHING AGAIN LET'S DO THAT THING I LIKE AGAIN AND AGAIN AND AGAIN AND AGAIN AND AGAIN PLAY PLAY PLAY AGAIN WALKIES WALKIES (pause for food) TELL ME WHAT TO DOOOOOOOOO.

Lovely dogs, but you have to have the right level of OCD to match theirs. Give me big and dumb any day.

Posted by: mightygodking at November 16, 2010 12:59 PM

Well if they do anything to Rangle, I'm sure they can get Gerald Ford to pardon him.

Posted by: Mrs. Julien at November 16, 2010 1:00 PM

HOLD THE PHONE! Jeremy does porn?! And it almost seems like he's proud of it!

Phew. OK. Needed my daily reminder.

(I only mention it because it's an easy joke at my own expense. And now you know. - JF)

Having already covered zombies, cops and aliens, Edgar Wright and Simon Pegg’s next movie is going to be about a post-apocalyptic wasteland.

So did you even read the article or just the title? He wasn't confirming but denying that rumor. And to think I prematurely cried tears of joy. For shame! Also, Paul is to Greg Mottola's credit and not a Wright/Pegg collabo.

Posted by: ThunderSacTriumph at November 16, 2010 1:02 PM

The joke was already explained to you, BigTodd. Read into it whatever you want, it won't change the actual intention.

Posted by: Paultera at November 16, 2010 1:04 PM

Mrs. Julien,

I've been sick for over a week and have become quite hornery. And when I get hornery, my sarcasm tips into "heartless commentary" territory. It's an unfortunate side-effect of being so oustandingly, awesomely, revolutionarily hilarious.

But now I'm nervous. Does my last post make it seem like I DON'T despise Mel Gibson? Because I do. I really, really do. Especially because he's using his kid as an excuse for his disgusting behavior. And there's some guilt there because he was one of my favorite actors in '90s and now he's shitting all over those great memories of enjoying his movies.

P.S. You mentioned cookies. Do you have some? I would like a cook---wait a minute. You're placating me, aren't you? Damn you.

Posted by: Kballs at November 16, 2010 1:04 PM

So this Dark Moon, will it have an ending similar to the short story "Forms of Things Unknown" by C.S. Lewis? Because that was kinda out there, but in a good way.

Must...resist urge... to make joke about BigTroll having 11 kids...must...resist....

Posted by: MelBivDevoe at November 16, 2010 1:09 PM

The Palin family is just proving that the developmentally disabled are as good as the rest of us at everything, including being drama queens and attention whores. Britney can't do it all by herself.

You people expect the developmentally disabled to act like cute, humble stereotypes like in a Sean Penn movie? That shit ain't gonna fly anymore. The developmentally disabled can serve as a governor (for a couple years), run for president and inspire a developmentally disabled political movement. And Sarah Palin is their developmentally disabled leader. It's progress. Stop trying to harsh their buzz. The upside is, more plentiful supplies of chocolate pudding for everyone. Who doesn't love pudding?

Posted by: Slash at November 16, 2010 1:10 PM

Paultera, yes the joke was explained, though it did'nt need to be I understood the intent. I'm just really bored and was good all day yesterday, just trying to get something started, now if you don't mind...>:)

Posted by: BigTodd at November 16, 2010 1:11 PM

Holy Crap Big Todd.

11 kids?

Are you sure you aren't just angling for a show on TLC yourself?

And if the answer is no, you should probably reconsider. From what I understand from my limited TV watching, having lots o babies is a reality TV goldmine.

Posted by: nix at November 16, 2010 1:11 PM

KBalls

1. Mr. Julien and I made cookies last night, so I do technically have some, but not the technology to get one to you. It was a sincere offer and not meant to placate. Conversely, the Cobie Smulders reference was blatant pandering.

2. The venom for Mel Gibson was clear and well-deserved. Your guilt over your past admiration is merely part of the glorious embittering that is the aging process. Sadly, it embiggens none of us.

3. re: It's an unfortunate side-effect of being so oustandingly, awesomely, revolutionarily hilarious.

Just how much medication are you taking? Are you washing it down with Chivas?

4. I hope you feel better soon.

Posted by: Mrs. Julien at November 16, 2010 1:12 PM

Pretty sure BigTodd only comes to argue.

Posted by: Jadine at November 16, 2010 1:14 PM

Slash, it was Vice President to begin with people in Alaska did'nt want her to run because they did'nt want to lose her. And your right people who want congress to do their job and respect the constiutiion are mentelly ill.

Posted by: BigTodd at November 16, 2010 1:15 PM

nix, nope not planning a show, God's plan just worked out that way.

Jadine, no not really, just works out that sometimes, in this case I beleave I made it clear that is what I am doing

Posted by: BigTodd at November 16, 2010 1:18 PM

There's a reason his name isn't Big Head Todd.

Unless you're a foster parent, you should stop around 6. Beyond that those kids are going to State Schools if they're lucky enough to even graduate high school.

Posted by: bananapanda at November 16, 2010 1:23 PM

people in Alaska did'nt want her to run because they did'nt want to lose her.

One of the mostmost brainwashed thing you've said before and that's saying a lot.

And for fuck's sake, man. Learn how to use an apostrophe.

Posted by: Paultera at November 16, 2010 1:26 PM

Aaaaand, I'll just throw a typo in there so you don't feel lonely. Yeah. That's what I did.

Posted by: Paultera at November 16, 2010 1:35 PM

bananapanda, the kids were home schooled until high school then went to charter school, one is starting grad school, another 2 have ba's, another graduating high school w/ an asc, so I think they are doing just fine thank you.

Paultera, this is from friends and family that lived in Alaska. And as some who has worked on a security detail with her, gotta say she is so nice. Unlike some others I've had to work for, Mrs Clinton you know who I'm talking about, *cough*BITCH*cough*

Posted by: BigTodd at November 16, 2010 1:38 PM

and before anyone else says it, the wife handles grammer not I.

Posted by: BigTodd at November 16, 2010 1:45 PM

11 pregnancies and the grammar. I think BigTodd's wife is one busy woman.

Posted by: Jadine at November 16, 2010 1:53 PM

LOL yes she is. She is a shining example of a great woman. That's not to say every woman has to have 11 kids to be a great woman. Woman that go to work and want no kids are great too. She is happy to be a housewife it's what she wanted to be all her life and I work my ass off to make sure she can be.

Posted by: BigTodd at November 16, 2010 2:04 PM

I just hope that dog doesn't empty the dishwasher as well. Between that vid and the dog yesterday still waiting for his dead owner...I'm glad I don't have dogs. Too much heartbreak, too much desire to please. My kitties like me well enough, but when I die, at least they'll be able to deal.

Monkey Pinata is terrifying. And apparently Mel is a gentle wife beater. What a guy.

Posted by: DeadBessie at November 16, 2010 2:23 PM

I might be interested in Sarah Palin's show if she were doing the Michael Palin thing and focusing on Alaska. It seems like an fascinating place. Her family, not so much. My own family takes up plenty of time. I don't need to see yet another show about some random person's family.

And seriously guys, don't make me do this. I hate doing this. But lay off BigTodd for the number of kids he has. Did he use your wife or girlfriend's uterus? I highly doubt it. (Though if we were talking about Kballs, I could believe he impregnated via awesome commentary.) Lay off the guy for that. Find other things to bitch at him about.

Posted by: stardust at November 16, 2010 2:28 PM

I think "taking the bait" means "completely miss the point and start an internet fight because it's FUNSIES WHEE I'M ANONYMOUS YOU CAN'T SEEEE MEEEEE!"

(Well, unless you count the fact we have everyone's email and IP Address. We don't actually do anything with them; for the most part, it's really only meant to make sure you guys aren't fucking with the system or spamming or anything like that, so all in all it's actually kinda useless information... But we still know who you all are, dammit! - JF)

Posted by: Kballs at November 16, 2010 2:39 PM

Argh, stardust, the ...Herculean.... effort required to acquiesce... to your request... is giving... me a... migraine.

But ok.

Posted by: Rykker at November 16, 2010 2:40 PM

I am not making fun of BigTodd for having 11 children. I only have one and that's enough for me. I can't fathom trying to raise that many. It would take a lot of hard work and a lot of money. Kudos to them both. It doesn't matter how many children anyone has. We're all different and that is what makes life so interesting.

That is all.

Posted by: stopthemadness aka Angry Black Lady at November 16, 2010 2:52 PM

stardust, my wife gave birth to them, we had them together, it takes 2

Jadine, it does'nt cost as much the experts say. We make do without some of the material things people always covet. and yes it does take a lot of time but would'nt trade for the world.

Julie, I beleave I've stated many time here that I was bored and was trying to pick a fight in a bid to entertain myself. how can I be anymore clear... you have a wonderful gift of stating the obvious.

Posted by: BigTodd at November 16, 2010 2:54 PM

Someone please stop me! I don't know why I'm doing this. Arghhh! Take this keyboard away from me...Don't feed. MUST NOT FEED....ohhh cookies!

In Alaska the big story is Sarah Palin's strength- or more precisely lack thereof- only 15% of her home state Republicans say she's their pick to be President, putting her behind Huckabee at 17% and Gingrich and Romney at 16%. When you see that lack of support for Palin in the state Joe Miller's apparent loss in the state's Senate election begins to look more and more understandable. It's clear at this point that Palin is a lot more popular in the rest of the country than she is in her home state.

For clarity's sake, BigTodd, you can simply say, "I'm trolling," or, "I'm the Resident Pajiba Troll (TM Pookie 2009)." It will help everyone understand your intentions with no confusion about the purpose of your comments.

Posted by: Kballs at November 16, 2010 3:10 PM

oh scully polls mean shit, I can find a poll that supports anything I want. Plus it helps if you go to site that has leanings towards what you want to beleave...


Posted by: BigTodd at November 16, 2010 3:13 PM

Because apparently people really love watching a famewhoring ex-politician talk about Alaska,

Famewhore has always been a viable career choice. Indeed, famewhore is totally interweb-proof. It's the future!

‘Refudiate’ is the Oxford Dictionary’s word of the year. Congratulations: you picked a word that was created by accident on Twitter as your word of the year.

Irregardless of what you may think, language evolves, or more precisely devolves. (See what I did there?) I for one, welcome our crepuscular-language overlords whether they be lycans, sparkley vamps or lip-chewing ingenues. Are we not men? We are devo!

So apparently some people think that there’s a gay subtext ... between Dumbledore and Harry

Subtext? I don't think that word means what you think it means.

Oh goodie, Mel Gibson and Oksana Gregorieva are in court now, with Mel saying .. that he only ever hit her with an open palm.

Now, I get it. Mel Gibson is anti-semetic because he's a fundamentalist Muslim.. See, the open hand ain't nothing. He coulda used a stick & still been within the law.

Posted by: BierceAmbrose at November 16, 2010 3:13 PM

Kballs, I don't beleave that is an effective description since I selectively troll, I've posted elsewhere on the site, I do find it funny that even though I state up front what I'm doing when I'm doing and people still get bent out of shape

Posted by: BigTodd at November 16, 2010 3:17 PM

I miss the simple days of race wars, orgies, and multi-tentacled deities battling for control of the site. I miss when a kerfuffle only occurred when a crazy person like me would defend an awful film for being merely mediocre, not alternate-dimension opening awful as the reviewer claimed. Won't someone please bring back the magical sparkle of Godtopus glitter that once made this a meeting place for twisted minds to unite for discussion of all things media? Pwease?

Posted by: Robert at November 16, 2010 3:20 PM

Oh, sorry, not you Jadine. I agree with you - if everyone were the same this world would be pretty damn boring. As for me, my planned uterine limit is two rugrats. If Mr. Stardust and I decide we want more then we'll adopt or foster. I'll deal with tiny feet jammed in my ribs once more after this kid. After that, no more sharing my body.

Posted by: stardust at November 16, 2010 3:22 PM

BigTodd,

I still stand by the definition since you "troll" more often than not, but whatever. I'm all about brevity.

And stating your intentions up front does not preclude people from getting "bent out of shape" because most folks don't like being taunted and manipulated for another's enjoyment. It's the same argument as those who say, "Yeah, but I'm entitled to my opinion," which is absolutely true. Unfortunately for the opinion holder's sense of unassailability, everyone else has the right to respond to it.

Posted by: Kballs at November 16, 2010 3:26 PM

most folks don't like being taunted and manipulated for another's enjoyment.

Which is precisely why he does it, so I doubt that point will matter to him at all.

Posted by: Rykker at November 16, 2010 3:31 PM

Robert, I miss those days too.

Posted by: Jadine at November 16, 2010 3:37 PM

well allow me to retort Kballs,

the times that I have chosen to "troll" it is about issues, people, and things that I find important. I put a line in the sand which if crossed I'll take someone to task. There are many occasion on here that I let someone's personal opinion pass regardless of how arsine I think it is. The topic is Pajiba love, and many are quick to tell me there are many people of different views on here. So surely there are other people that have love for the Palin's and the tea party. Why are we not then represented in the Pajiba love? I am a bigger geek than most and love joining in on conversations about movies and such. If you don't like me "trolling" about politics then keep this a strict movie/TV show site. If political topics come up I will comment. It will piss someone off. I'll probably giggle as it happens.

Posted by: BigTodd at November 16, 2010 3:48 PM

BigTodd,

Whether or not you state up front that you're trolling or trying to entertain yourself or whatever, you can't expect people to not get a bit bent out of shape when your purpose is to do just that. You state regurgitated talking points as fact and possess (in MY own opinion) a frankly primitive view on the world.

You fully have your right to those views, as narrow as we all think they are. But if you're really that bored, do some research on the things you believe.

Maybe try a website on grammar, punctuation and the like. It will certainly help you be taken at least a little bit more seriously if you can communicate like someone with a higher than 8th grade education. I'm not ripping on you here, I'm stating this because it is a FACT. The things a person believes are given more consideration when they can SPELL believe.

Posted by: Paultera at November 16, 2010 4:00 PM

That dog is going to turn into a blimp with all those treats.

Posted by: max at November 16, 2010 4:03 PM

Oh, and there's plenty of people that have love for the Palins. But most of them don't know how to work the internet.

Posted by: Paultera at November 16, 2010 4:03 PM

But you GO OUT OF YOUR WAY to piss people off. If you can't understand the distinction between carrying on a conversation with someone about different viewpoints and intentionally provoking people, I can't help you.

And before you use the "people attack me for my views" argument again, take a look around at people like PaddyDog and Yossarian whose opinions are questioned and attacked farily often and they don't treat everyone like they're playpieces in some childish flame war designed to entertain a party of one. People single you out because you single yourself out. And if you get called some nasty names along the way, well, some people have less patience for trolling than others.

None of this is meant to change your behavior. I'm just trying to clearly describe the personae you've created here at Pajiba. Unfortunately for comment sections on the internet, you are what you write.

Posted by: Kballs at November 16, 2010 4:12 PM

Paultera, you mean like how you get your talking points from huffington post? how would that be any better? is it better because more people agree with you? oh no it's better because I'm always careful with my grammer and spelling. I've made fun of myself for this. This truelly seems to be trouble with this country at the moment people only want to hear statements that support their world view. I can be guilty of this as well. Now where is were you tell me you want to hear other opinions but can't take the grammer and spelling. you are using that as a crutch to deflect anything I say.

Posted by: BigTodd at November 16, 2010 4:19 PM

Kballs,
that is your preceptions most of the stuff I write are responses to what someone else has said, just like what is going on now. Am I in a flame war with you? I think not. This is what I call a conversation not even a spirited one. Hell it's not a flame war into I call someone a fucktard.

Okay, this is pissing me off. How does one, single, loony person trying to get a ridiculous measure on the ballot suddenly mean "San Francisco" is considering banning circumcisions? It's such a convenient, and lazy, way to lump all of us San Franciscans together because we're "so wacky" out here and we all agree with each other all the time. Give me a fucking break. If someone was trying to get a "shit eating" measure on the ballot in Chicago, would you then exclaim "Chicago wants you to eat shit!"? Of course not. The SF Chronicle had a short article about it....under their "Junk Legislation" section. The recent election has shown that San Franciscans have actually shifted towards a more moderate stance on issues. This still has to get on the ballot and then has to voted on. Yeah, not going to pass.

Not everyone is crazy here. Get the fuck over it.

I wonder what PETA thinks of this video?

I'm not using it as a crutch, I was pointing out that you should try to educate yourself if you are that bored and the fact that you would be taken slightly more seriously if you did. Yes, bad grammar drives me nuts. I horrible at math though. You're welcome to berate my algebra skills.

I don't get my talking points from anywhere, this is my point. I base my opinions on what I've learned from thousands of different areas. Be it news, life experiences, etc. I know you think I don't have an open mind because you're set in your ways but I was once very much like you.

On 9/11 the news showed me, along with the rest of the world, people dancing in the streets in celebration of killing thousands of Americans. It angered me. I wanted us to just lay bombs on every square inch of the middle east.

When I was 18 I voted against gay marriage because, although I didn't have anything against gays, there was still the lingering teachings of my close-minded elders.

You know my opinions on gays and Muslims now and it's quite different. I overcame all that. I did my own research and kept my mind open. My beliefs are formed from listening to all angles and making an educated decision. Maybe you think that yours are as well but being that every point you have has been spit out word for word by liars and manipulators, I can tell you that you need to listen outside of that for a while.

I learned and changed. I hope that you do as well one day.

heehee. Had too!

My views are also based on my life. My reading of history books. reading the news on both fox and huffington post. my views have also changed actually but more the other direction. I've become more conservative as I get older.

See, BigTodd, the issue is that while oatmeal is a more comforting breakfast food due to its inherent warmth and range of choices for toppings, cold cereal is still superior for its simplicity and quick preparation time (which leaves more time in the rest of the day for curb-stomping party clowns). And while most orangutans do support putting Frosted Flakes into the water instead of fluoride, the zebras will never go for it. At least, not until the next epidemic of lupus.

that's what i hate about THEY. THEY're always doing stuff-- to circumcised penii and to uncircumcised penii. to tea party people who aren't even tea partiers! or teabaggers! they are just 24 Hour Party People who like tea! But They don't like it. They think They have all the power. And to the racists? The racists don't deserve to be be treated this way by They. They is an asshole!

I SAY WE RISE UP! LET US LOOK THEY IN THE EYE! LET US SAY TO THEY "NOT TODAY"!

Posted by: Rykker at November 16, 2010 6:17 PM

MelBivDevoe,
On Dark Moon, the ending isn't as coherent as Lewis' "Forms of Things Unknown." In fact, given simply the premise, the astronauts encountering another life form seems like an obvious element, especially considering the anomalies they're aware of at the start of the mission and become increasingly frightened of over the course of the story.

It's the execution of the rushed, ridiculous conclusion. It has more in common with James Cameron's The Abyss than anything else, but without the sort of contemplative, thought-provoking finish or, you know, character development. And the way it's tied back to Earth...

If I just told you, you'd think "wow, that's a terrible twist" (almost Shyamalanian) but I'd be glossing over how truly terrible the writing is to reach that climax. Feel free to email me, though, I'll spoil away.

The similar-sounding script, Apollo 18, is much better for a variety of reasons, but most of all because the screenwriters seem to have a direction in mind from the start.

How many of those 5 million who watched Palin's show were comedy writers? I'm guessing the Daily Show and The Colbert Report alone had to have at least a dozen writers each watching and dissecting that show.

It's good of you to come right out and admit this, BigJed. It shows self-awareness and personal growth of which I, quite frankly, did not think you were capable.
