I hate correcting people’s spelling because it is whiny and annoying, but I’ve got to show some love for my frequently-misspelled hometown.

Nice work, dipshit:
Temple acknowledged Thursday to the Senate Committee on Economic Development that Texas’ decision not to take $556 million in unemployment stimulus dollars directly led to higher taxes for business owners and more borrowing from the federal government to replenish the state’s broke unemployment trust fund.
As you’ll recall, Gov. Rick Perry refused to...
Are you fucking serious, Paramount?
What a bunch of assholes:
San Diego will have to stay classy without more Will Ferrell.
After reports that the star-studded cast of “Anchorman: The Legend of Ron Burgundy” had cut their pay rates to make way for a sequel, director Adam McKay has declared the film dead.
“So bummed. Paramount basically passed on Anchorman 2. Even after we cut our budget down. We tried,” he Tweeted on...

I actually love 3D, but I agree with many of Ebert’s points here.
When 3D is done well (Avatar, Up) it’s amazing, and worth the extra money they tack on to the ticket price.
But when it’s done poorly (Alice in Wonderland, Clash of the Titans) it’s enraging, and can ruin a movie.

But the Governor of Texas sounds like a complete wackjob, even by Texas’ already-lax standards:
Pistol-packing Texas Gov. Rick Perry has a message for wily coyotes out there: Don’t mess with my dog. Perry told The Associated Press on Tuesday he needed just one shot from the laser-sighted pistol he sometimes carries while jogging to take down a coyote that menaced his puppy during...

They have to end it after he leaves. As much as I love this show, they can’t pull a Spin City and replace their main character.
I know that "Love knows no age" but this creeps me...
NY Post:
Young “Kick-Ass” star Aaron Johnson should be spending his free time partying at the Chateau Marmont and sucking face with the starlet du jour.
Instead, the 19-year-old Hollywood newcomer is home with his pregnant fiancée — who’s old enough to be his mother.
Johnson said he doesn’t need to sow any wild oats, because he’s found true love.

To Insane Clown Posse's credit...
… they seem incredibly good-natured and excited that they’re being mocked by just about everyone.
The Times interviewed them and they sound like couldn’t be more thrilled about the whole thing. I guess they just like the attention.
Magnets were like magic to me as a kid. You could move things across the table...

(Here is something serious-ish, and even ranty, for a change!):
Today Trey Parker and Matt Smith Stone (this had a typo for one second), who live/cower behind gates and can afford massive security, are whining that Comedy Central has censored their stupid TV show stunt over threats of violence…

Another question...
What is it with right-wingers and a complete lack of writing skills?
Between teabaggers, Sarah Palin and Mrs. Chachi, it seems that conservatives are unable to string together a single paragraph that’s coherent, properly spelled and doesn’t contain 15 exclamation points.
Scott Baio and his wife seem like the two worst... →
Say it ain’t so, Bob Loblaw.
katoleary: I threw my hip out dancing to “Get Low” and lost my voice singing along with “Sweet Child O’ Mine,” so I guess it’s 2003?
I was surprised this weekend to find that the lyrics for “Get Low” are a lot dirtier than I remember. What’s with all the talk of ball sweat?
Maybe I’m just getting boring and easily scandalized in my old...
I don't know what the fuck the teabaggers are...
All that hopey changey stuff worked out pretty well for me, actually.
Ben Folds!
I saw him last night at Town Hall near Times Square. The man is GOOD in concert. It was just him and the piano. (Except for one song where the opening act joined him, and another song where he played the drums.) His between-song banter is also really funny.
Bonus — I saw Jason Sudeikis from SNL and 30 Rock — he was a few people ahead of me in the bathroom line.
All this Double Down talk is making me seriously...
I’ll hold off for now, though. I’m making pizza tonight, and probably should eat something for lunch that’s not going to kill me instantly.
