Gaga The Fashionista! - The Sperm Hat

Oh Gaga.  According to TMZ, Lady Gaga emerged from a London hotel on Wednesday wearing what appeared to be a hot pink sperm hat on her head.  What will she think of next?  With all due respect, she probably doesn't come up with these ridiculous outfits, she just promotes them. :-)

I'll let the Gaga fans correct me.

Poster of the Week - Issue No. 35 - Ineptitude

Continuing alphabetically, I bring you this week's poster, "Ineptitude".

The Good Christian Bieber Turns Psychosocial

Don't you just love when good Christian boys turn out to be little monsters?  Justin Bieber gave the paparazzi the finger (oh, I mean TWO), while leaving a restaurant in London with some hot girl.  Oh, I'm not sure, but is that Selena Gomez?  Perfect time for some "Psychosocial Baby", don't you think?

Snoopy Does The Shuffle!

Just when you think you've heard and seen it all; Out comes Snoopy dancing to LMFAO's "Party Rock Anthem".  Yes, you read that right, Snoopy gets down and dirty with his friend, Woodstock.  And he even gets Charlie Brown to join midway through the song.  But it doesn't stop there!   Surprise guests come on board and get down with Snoopy and the gang!

And I thought the Halloween House, the Ohio University Marching Band, and the Hamsters had it all down.  I was wrong!

Little Munchkin Passes Away

Slover seen on right

Who doesn't know of The Wizard of Oz ?  It's impossible not to know about it.  We watched it as children, and as adults.  Hell, Ryan even got me the 70th Anniversary Blu-ray gift box for Christmas last year.

Well, unbeknownst to me, Karl Slover, one of only four surviving little people who played the Munchkins in the movie died this past Tuesday. :-(  He was 93.

The four-foot-five Slover, one of the shortest men in the movie, portrayed not only the lead trumpeter in the Munchkins band, but also a townsman and a soldier. The little guy was born Karl Kosiczky in what is now the Czech Republic, the only dwarf-sized child in the family. According to The Washington Post, his father inflicted inhumane treatments to make him taller, burying him in the backyard, immersing him in heated oil until his skin blistered, and attaching him to a stretching machine at a hospital. Eventually, at the age of nine, his father sold him to a traveling freak show. In his 20s, Slover moved to the States and joined a vaudeville troupe called the Singer Midgets, its 30 members becoming the core group of movie Munchkins. Slover was paid $50 a week, a salary lower than Toto’s. 

Later in life, he appeared around the country at festivals and events related to the movie, and was one of seven Munchkins representing all the little people of Oz at the 2007 unveiling of a star dedicated to them on the Hollywood Walk of Fame. “He has a genuine immortality,” said 100 Years of Oz author, John Fricke. “Of the 124 little people, he’s one of the handful who got to enjoy this latter-day fame, to have people know who he was and be able to pick him out of the crowd in the movie.”

How To Spot A Cat Person's Home

I think all of us can relate to this comic.  We have either been a cat owner or know someone in the family who's obsessed with them.  I for one, love cats!  We don't own any, because Ryan refuses to have a feline running around the house with our four chihuahuas.  And after they're gone, we are getting a pot belly pig.  DON'T ASK.

In either case, this is...

It's Purely Animal - Issue No. 35 - Bunny Letter Opener

Growing up on a farm, my sister and I had every pet imaginable. You'd think we were building an Ark. LOL. From ducks, pigs, cows, to chickens, dogs, cats, and yes, even bunnies! They were the most lovable pets ever!

With the amount of letters and bills we receive on a daily basis, I'm considering buying one of these.  

Well... I'd have to ask Ryan first.  Take a look at this adorable video.

Quoted - Demi Moore & Ashton Kutcher On Their Marriage

“It is with great sadness and a heavy heart that I have decided to end my six-year marriage to Ashton. As a woman, a mother and a wife there are certain values and vows that I hold sacred, and it is in this spirit that I have chosen to move forward with my life. This is a trying time for me and my family, and so I would ask for the same compassion and privacy that you would give to anyone going through a similar situation.” – Demi Moore to the Associated Press

“I will forever cherish the time I spent with Demi. Marriage is one of the most difficult things in the world and unfortunately sometimes they fail. Love and Light, AK” – Ashton Kutcher's response on Twitter

Are People Really This Stupid? Issue No. 12 - The Best Burnout Ever

Why did I create this particular series?  Well.... 

because I like to show all the stupid things people do that I probably wouldn't do. LOL.  Okay, so I may have gone overboard on some, but for the most part these are stupid people.  

Why on God's green earth would I want to burnout my tires to the point where the rubber flies off?  Really? Why? Are people really this stupid?

YES!!! YES!!! and YES!!!

OMG Hilarious! - Heinous

Must Watch: 99% vs. 1% - The Data Behind The Movement

If you've been having a hard time understanding the "Occupy Wall Street" movement, or you simply don't get this 99% they keep talking about, then I suggest you watch this video.  It's absolutely amazing. 
 
The Guardian put together this animated short which explains the distribution of wealth in this country.  Share it with those who need a better understanding of why we ordinary Americans are paying more taxes than the rich.  Doesn't make any sense, does it?

Best Buy Uniform Prank

The next time you run to Best Buy, make sure you're not wearing a blue shirt and khaki pants.  You may find yourself getting kicked out, or better yet, arrested.  LOL.  

Well, I guess if it was huge mob of customers walking in with your company's ensemble, you'd probably kick them out too. Check out this hilarious prank by Improv Everywhere.

Isn't This The Truth? Vicious Circle

Life is pretty much a vicious circle, isn't it?  I mean, we get up, go to work, get off work, cook dinner, take a shower, and go to bed.  But this comic tells it like it really is... LMAO.  And then you die.

Nerd Guide To New York City

New York City is one of the most vibrant and interesting cities in the world. As it is, tourists need more than a week to check off all the “must-see” sights, but the list just got longer (especially if you’re a super nerd).

An enormous nerdy collaboration over at BuzzFeed has resulted in this super cool NYC tourist map for movie-, comic-, television- and book-nerds that was headed by BuzzFeed member, Jack Shepherd.

Who cares about visiting the MOMA when you now know where to go to check out the GhostBusters original Headquarters! And why would you waste your time in a lineup to see the view from the top of the Empire State building when you can visit Dock Ocks of Spider Man 2′s Laboratory. It’s about time tourists got their priorities straight…thanks BuzzFeed nerds. We love you.

I Had A Wonderful Birthday!

I had a wonderful weekend with my partner, Ryan and had the greatest birthday anyone could ever ask for.  

It's amazing that after all these years together, I still feel the same for him as I did the very first time I laid eyes on him.  Better yet, I love him more today, than yesterday.  We've lived together and been inseparable all these years, and don't regret one moment of it.

I was talking with him the other day, and told him that it really doesn't feel any different turning 40, than turning 30 or 20.  I still feel young, or at least I think I do. LOL.  As for the knowledge I've gained over the years, yes, that has made me a better person.  We only get wiser with age.  I truly believe that by learning from all the mistakes I made during my twenties and thirties, it helped contribute to our relationship being as strong as it is today.

I had a wonderful, wonderful birthday because of you, my dear Ryan, and I Love You! 

I got tickets to Cirque Du Soleil's 'Dralion', The Godfather: The Coppola Restoration on Blu-ray, The dvd box set of '24' and a snowglobe of 'The Nightmare Before Christmas'.   Not to mention, the wonderful dinner we had with our friends on Sunday night.  Everything was fabulous!

Blog Break

Hello, my fellow blog readers!!!

I just wanted to let you know that Ryan and I will be taking a small break from home and work. Yes, even we need a break once in a while.  

Please feel free to check out my previous blogs while I take a much needed rest!!!  I have some of my favorite categories on the left hand side, but you can also search for whatever you like in the search bar, and by date from the drop down list on the right.  

 If you do find me blogging, it will be on a limited basis and only to bitch about something, LOL.

During my break, the song, "Someone Like You" by Adele will be on autoplay, feel free to stop it if you wish to browse through my blogs.

 Should be back Monday or Tuesday, Nov 14-15th.

Hey Granny, How 'Bout You Make Me A Pie?

Absolutely wonderful!  LOL, Julian Smith visits his 95-year old granny, and he wants some pie.  Granny is an absolute hoot, and I love her!! She says it like it is!  

Of course, Julian isn't having any of it, he wants Granny to make him a pie that doesn't consist of strawberries, because he's "deathly allergic" to them.

The "making of the video" outtakes are the best part.  Julian has a difficult time teaching Granny to say, "for pwning noobs".  You can check that out after the jump...

What If An Atheist Was Running For President of the United States?

Would you vote for him?  Probably not, according to this latest poll posted at The New Republic.  Question is?  Will religion play a role in the 2012 election?  I'm gonna say, yes.

The chart above shows the comfort level of voters who indicated they were somewhat uncomfortable or very uncomfortable with the prospect of an Atheist, Muslim, Mormon or Evangelical taking the oath of office.

Governor Rick Perry says, "Ooops".

Please help me understand how our state has elected this man for three consecutive terms?  Oh, I know, the corrupt Republican machine, who is now in the process of redistricting, and finding ways to suppress voters.

If you're Latino or a student, good luck.  Republicans are in control of both houses in this state, so they can pretty much pass whatever they want.  Soon Democrats won't be allowed to vote. LOL, j/k.

During last night's presidential debate, Governor Ricky Perry forgot the third government agency he would eliminate as president.  "Commerce, Education, and the.... um...um... what's the third one there? let's see....Commerce, Education, and the um. um...um.."  Really?  And when the moderator asked him if he was serious, he continues mumbling and still can't remember, which in turn leads him to say, "oops".

So now you know why he never wants to debate when he's running for Governor.  He refused to debate Mayor Bill White of Houston during the last election.

The Rise and Fall of Herman Cain

A humorous look at how the rise of presidential candidate Herman Cain transpired, and the aftermath involving a sex scandal that just won't go away.  I feel for the guy, but he knew what he was getting himself into.  I take that back, once again women's rights are always overlooked.  Karma, Cain, Karma.

Dropped From Country Music Record Label? Become A Supermodel

So what happens when you're an up and coming country music star, and get signed on to a record label? 

Make lots of money and become a famous Nashville star!!!

Not so much. You become a supermodel and become best friends with a really hot guy named Rodiney Santiago.  LOL.

Actually, Josey Greenwell, the gorgeous country music singer you see on your left, had it all going for him until he was kicked off a record label for being gay.

    "After we had been recording for months, they found out I was gay and dropped me from the record label and debut album wasn't released. I ended up finishing the project myself and spent all that year promoting it myself and trying to get any kind of help I could. They said, "Music isn't ready for something as controversial as you and we sure as hell won’t be the first label to have it."

    I don't think that is true at all and actually think music is READY for someone like me to come along! Music can put someone on such a pedestal and it's up to them whether or not they use that for the greater good and I definitely feel like I am not only strong enough, but now brave enough to be able to stand up for millions of people out there just like me and stand as a role model with my music."

I don't know about you, but I think Nashville really fucked up on this one. Literally. Geezus, this guy is beautiful!  

And not forgetting to mention, his friend Rodiney isn't so bad either. 

Check out Josey and Rodiney singing a cover to Britney Spear's "How I Roll". They're so cute together :-).

Oh, and two more hot pics after the jump...

To Troll A Predator... with... Batman

So what do you do when Chris Hansen is no longer around to film "To Catch A Predator"?  Watch Batman's version of it.  LMAO!

OMG, Ryan and I used to love watching this show.  The premise of the show, which aired on MSNBC, was to catch adults preying on underage youth usually around 13-15, through online chat rooms.  Do these still exist?  

In either case, a house would be used to draw these men to it, with the hope that they would meet the teenage kid they were chatting with to have sex.  The decoy, who was either a boy or girl (never really looked like a teenager), was used in the filming of this show.  After inviting them in they would leave to get some "lemonade" or "to change clothes",  and Chris Hansen would pop out and say, "I'm Chris Hansen, with Dateline NBC."

This would spook the predator, but they would rarely attempt to leave without saying a word to Hansen, but guess what?  They weren't going anywhere, the cops were waiting outside for them.  Some of these were preachers, teachers, and fathers with teenagers of their own.  And the things they would say, were "out of this world" ridiculous.

Well... Since Chris Hansen isn't around, Batman has come to the rescue.  Sounds kinda funny, right?  But this guy is actually helping you see a reality which happens way too often.

A man dressed as Batman has been creating fake online accounts and chatting with older men in order to lure them into meeting for sex.  When they show up at an unspecified location, he confronts them with his raspy "Batman" voice.  LOL. Hey whatever works, right?  Maybe this will make the predator think twice before he does it again.  Check out a hero at work...  The online messages are NSFW, it's rather descriptive.

Median Net Worth

It pains me to see close friends and past co-workers having a difficult time finding a job.  And it also pains me to know that I work with a nurse who's daughter just graduated college, and can't find work anywhere.  She has a Bachelor's degree, spent over 150,000 in college loans and no job to help pay that off.  So while Republicans are finding ways to make it harder on students, the elderly, and Latinos to vote in 2012, they are also blocking legislation which could help our college students with another major crisis - their debt.

Adding salt to the wounds of the new lost generation:

According to analysis by the Pew Research Center released Monday, younger Americans have been left behind as the oldest generation has seen wealth surge since the mid-1980s.

While it’s typical for older generations to hold more wealth than younger ones who’ve had less time to save, the gap between the two age groups has widened rapidly.

In 1984, households headed by people age 65 and older were worth just 10 times the median net worth of households headed by people 35 and younger.

But now that gap has widened to 47-to-one, marking the largest wealth gap ever recorded between the two age groups.
