Snark, Critic and Pop!

My job has recently instituted a work from home one day a week program.  at first I was excited – use less gas, less clothes for dry cleaning… but then you miss Daniel losing it while dressed as a woman, so it really isn’t worth it.

The Jersey Shore’s Mike “The Situation” Sorrentino (I know I have used this pic before, but google couldn’t find anything better) is going to be ruining comic books, much like he ruins television.  Thanks Wizard World!  According to the press release:

The series of comic books based upon stories by Mike “The Situation” Sorrentino and his family will be written and drawn by some of the comic book industry’s leading artists and writers. In addition, the Sorrentino family members will be making appearances at several Wizard World conventions to promote their characters and greet the fans in attendance.

Proving without a doubt that the recesion has hit some of the comic book industry’s leading artists and writers.

It seems that the 21st cetury arms race of gluttony is heating up.  Pizza Hut UK is offering the new hot dog stuffed pizza to go along with other classics such as “foot long pasta dish”.  Don’t worry, they also offer all you can eat greasy salad.  They even offer a happy hour, although I can’t imagine spending a happy hour at Pizza Hut (or a happy half hour for that matter). 

Please dear reader, spread the word.  If people don’t know about this the Brits could soon be as fat and diabetes ridden as us, and then where would we be (aside from fat and diabeted ridden)?  Just kidding, until they get the bacon milkshake they are not even in our league!

There is a lawyer somewhere who has a client, and the two of them think that it is a good idea to sue the family of a dead teen whose body was ripped into pieces when he was hit by a train.  Why you might ask?  Do these people not have any compassion for the grieving family?  No.  You see, one of his body parts flew on to the platform and hit her, breaking her leg and wrist and injuring her shoulder.  So of course she is entitled to a large cash settlement, right?  A state appeals court 

found that it was reasonably foreseeable’ that the high-speed train would kill the college hopeful and fling his body toward a platform where people were waiting. 

Seriously.  And if that wasn’t bad enough (continue reading…)

They’ve made a sequel to Beverly Hills Chihuahua.  I’d like to report that George Lopez has too much self-respect to be in it . . . but I can’t.

The only good news? It’s straight to DVD.  (continue reading…)

It’s enough to make the Undertaker roll over in his grave: Apparently pop star flavor of the month Justin Bieber is in talks to appear at WrestleMania in Atlanta next year.  Bieber is currently training to step between the ropes to challenge pro wrestling’s maniacal dentist, Dr. Isaac Yankem, for the coveted Intercontinental Championship! 

I kid, of course, Issac Yankem never won the IC title.  And Bieber is probably not going to be wrestling anytime soon, until his unavoidable tenure on a distant Washed Up Celebrity Pro Wrestling reality show in a few decades. 

Bieber is in talks to sing America the Beautiful at WrestleMania, which begs a few questions: 1) Will America still be beautiful after Bieber sings America the Beautiful at WrestleMania?  2) Is this a bigger blow to the dignity of Bieber or WrestleMania?  (continue reading…)

There is talk of a biopic of the “one man boy band” Justin Bieber.  It’s very strange that I know exactly who Justin Bieber and that he is a singer, but I don’t think I’ve ever heard one of his songs. 

Perhaps a biographical picture is just the thing to introduce Bieber to a wider audience . . . or cause the end of the world.  Is it worth the risk, America?  IS IT????
