If there was EVER a ninja who needed to give up his Glock, it’s Gucci . Gucci Mane Forced To Give Up Guns Under Federal Indictment According to TMZ reports : Gucci Mane’s got a problem with the United States government that goes beyond taxes — it’s like a bullet to the heart … because Uncle Sam wants to take his Glock. According to a federal indictment, the government wants Mane to surrender his 2 guns — a 40 caliber Glock and a 45 caliber Taurus. They also want the ammo that goes with it. As for why the government has a hard-on for Mane … the rapper has 2 priors — aggravated assault with a deadly weapon and possession of more than 20 grams of pot. If Gucci is going to be allowed to walk the streets we sure would feel a helluva lot safer if we know he doesn’t have any firearms on his person.
MTV is in BIG trouble! Man Sues MTV For Displaying His Name And Address In Chubby Chaser Documentary Via NYDailyNews A Manhattan man who sued because his real-life identity was outed on MTV’s “True Life: I’m a Chubby Chaser” is fat out of luck, a Manhattan judge has ruled. Tristan Watson and roommate Nadine Crosbie filed suit against the reality show’s producers last year, claiming they were duped into thinking their home address would not be shown and that Watson would only be identified by the name “Tee” on the show, which focused on people who intentionally seek out extra-plump partners. But despite verbal assurances and an email from a producer in 2011 telling him not to worry, Watson’s full first name was used on air and an Internet broadcast in 2012 — and the show didn’t do anything to conceal the location of their New York home, the suit said. Their “address and apartment number were clearly, identifiably displayed,” the suit said. The little white lie turned into a big problem for Watson and Crosbie, his outspoken cousin who also appeared on the show. After it aired, the pair said they were harassed and got death threats. Can you imagine how terrifying it would be to have stalker with high cholesterol??? The pair filed suit against MTV and the show’s producers for $2.5 million, charging them with fraud, breach of contract and negligence. The show’s producers said Watson and Crosbie had voluntarily agreed to appear on the show, and signed a release allowing their likenesses to be used and filming to be done at their home. They also agreed not to sue for any reason, the producers said. MTV’s filing noted the pair had participated in the show for “nearly a year” before it aired. In a ruling earlier this month, Manhattan Supreme Court Justice Marcy Friedman threw the suit out, finding the pair’s agreement with the show’s producers didn’t contain any of the guarantees they said they’d been promised. Watson and Crosbie’s lawyer, Romeo Salta, said there are no plans to appeal. Better read that fine print ladies and gentlemen. These networks make you sign a release for a reason! That said, they aired ol’ boy’s gov’t name AND address??? Really, MTV??? SMH Image via MTV

WTF ?! David Beckham Says He Touched Himself Sexually In Hazing Ritual According to TMZ reports : David Beckham claims he was the victim of a bizarre hazing ritual as a young professional soccer player … in which he had to touch himself sexually in front of his male teammates. Beckham describes the experience in a new documentary called “The Class of 92″ about an iconic generation of soccer stars in England in the 90s. It happened in 1991 — when Beckham was just 16 — and he says he had to stare at a photo of a famous Welsh soccer player named Clayton Blackmore and (more or less) masturbate in front of his teammates. He said, “Everyone had an initiation that you had to go through on the youth team, that was one of the most uncomfortable ones.” He added, “I was embarrassed when I was saying it on camera let alone talking about it more. But it’s something that we all had to go through. It was definitely something I wouldn’t like to go through again!” No need to wonder why soccer isn’t popular amongst American brothas… Image via Splash

Jesus take the clippers ! Man Sells Jesus Christ’s Toenails On eBay Almost 10 years to the day since his mother’s image was discovered seared onto the buttered bread of a grilled cheese sandwich, Jesus Christ’s toenails may have been found in Key Largo. Via Keysnet reports: The owner of the deified phalange’s coverings is selling them on eBay. “Condition: Used.” The Reporter attempted to contact the seller through his or her eBay account, but to no avail. The person did provide a narrative on eBay of how he or she came to be in possession of the Messiah’s discarded clippings. From the gripping tale, the seller may have been better off hawking them out of a J. Peterman catalogue: “While traveling through Europe, I went to see a seer, or as Americans like to call them, ‘psychic.’ I stayed in Germany for a couple of months, then decided to travel. “I found myself in a little border town in the Czech Republic. This short, little older woman, whom appeared to be about 150 years old, popped out of a doorway and grabbed my hand. Scared the bagebers out of me. “Then she pulled me into this dilapidated doorway and said she had a gift for me. As I held out my hand and looked into her gray eyes, I noticed moles on the side of her face with hairs sticking out of them. To me, this indicated she was very, very old. “Then she proceeded to tell me what they were. Well, I figured they could not be real because it’s not like I could get a DNA test on them. Who would I ask, God? “Now I figured I would part with them or try to sell them on my own website. Maybe they could find a good home with a curator who believes this is true.” As of press time, two people placed bids for 99 cents. Looking for a good Christmas gift? Better hurry; bidding expires on Nov. 26.
Pay yo bills. Man Hit With $200K Toll Road Bill Dayum, you could feed a small village with 200k. According to NBC Washington: Paying tolls on your daily commute is a drop in the ocean compared to the E-ZPass bill one Virginia man drove up by ignoring them. Jason Bourcier doesn’t deny that he rode the Dulles Toll Road nightly without paying for his commute from Reston to Washington three-and-a-half years ago when he was looking for work. A friend told him that when the toll booths were unmanned after 11:30 p.m., you could use the road without paying. His friend was wrong. This week, VDOT took Bourcier to court because his bill had ballooned from $440 to more than $200,000, including late fees and interest. They reached a settlement and agreed on a payment plan. “They provided me with a stack of summonses that was 12 inches high, and me and my lawyers, the best that we could do was $40,000,” he said. “Another kicker is they put me on a payment plan for $150 a month.” At that rate and with interest due — another $55,000 — Bourcier, who is 33 and now has a good job, figures he will be 87 years old by the time he pays VDOT back. “The lesson learned is to work with us if you don’t have a transponder or the cash to pay a toll,” said a statement from VDOT. “Don’t wait and don’t ignore the notices.” Bourcier said he has learned two lessons from this.“One would be for state legislature to take another look at the fines and fees that they are assessing the taxpayers,” he said. “The other would be for me, and that would be don’t mess with E-ZPass.” He won’t be able to pay off the bill until he’s 87-years-old and by then he won’t even be able to drive.

He beats and then eats it?? Rob Ford Allegedly Beat His Wife Via Raw Story reports: The evolving madness of the Rob Ford drug scandal in Toronto appears to have pushed one local newspaper to publish the contents of police reports editors have been sitting on for months, ostensibly in the interest of protecting the Ford’s children from harm. The police reports, according to to the Toronto Star, show a pattern of police contact with Rob Ford’s wife Renata Ford that may be evidence of domestic abuse. In one report, which Star columnist Rosie DiManno carefully notes hasn’t been proven in court, police responded to an argument between Renata Ford and a cab driver. “The mayor’s wife was slurring her words and belligerent with the driver, police sources have told the Star. She either refused to pay the fare or did not have the money. Their argument became so heated that the cabbie called for police assistance. When cops arrived, they observed that Mrs. Ford had bruises and cuts to her limbs and face that appeared to be a few days old. But, when asked about it, she refused to say how the injuries had been suffered. She was, in fact, too incoherent to say much of anything — either inebriated or on drugs.” The Star had chosen not to publish the reports earlier because they believed the mayor’s spouse was not someone in the public eye and was entitled to privacy. “Nobody here had any stomach for expanding the scandal engulfing Toronto’s mayor to encompass his family, thereby causing harm, particularly to the couple’s two young children.” But recent events such as Rob Ford’s public admission to using crack cocaine and driving drunk prompted editors to change their mind. Renata Ford’s recent travails include enduring discussion about allegations of Rob Ford’s sexual indiscretions with an aide and the alleged use of prostitutes. She appeared with him Friday at a press conference moments after he made graphic comments about their sex life while denying that he had made sexual advances toward a staffer. Minus the domestic violence issue and crack use, you gotta love Rob Ford!
Some people should not have kids. Baby Put Up For Sale For $430 In Brazil Babies are supposed to keep you up at night. Idiots. According to The NY Daily News: A Brazilian baby was put up for sale for just $430 because it wouldn’t let its parents sleep, police said. Cops in Aparecida de Goiânia, in the central state of Goias, are investigating after an ad for a tiny tot appeared on classified website OLX. It featured a snapshot of a little boy, dressed in a blue outfit, alongside the caption: “Cries a lot and did not let me sleep and I have to work to survive.” The ad, posted on Tuesday, was pulled after only 12 hours for breaching the site’s terms and conditions. But police children protection officer Marcela Orçai said officers were now trying to track down the person who placed the promo. “We are trying to locate the person who posted the ad,” Orçai said. “We believe [THEY]may live in the Campos Eliseos neighbourhood but the address given does not exist. Also the phone number has no connection with the case,” Orçai added. OLX, which has operated in Brazil since 2010, said it had no involvement between advertisers and customers using its platform, reports Jornal do Brasil. Whoever posted that ad needs their azz whooped. OLX
Toronto Mayor Rob Ford says he smoked crack about a year ago in a “drunken stupor.” Toronto Mayor Rob Ford Admits To Smoking Crack Rocks Via The Globe & Mail reports: “Yes, I have smoked crack cocaine but … am I an addict? No. Have I tried it? Probably in one of my drunken stupors, probably approximately about a year ago,” Mr. Ford said on Tuesday. “I answered your question. You ask the question properly, I’ll answer it. Yes, I’ve made mistakes. All I can do now is apologize and move on.” As reporters tried to ask where and how often he used crack, Mr. Ford suggested he was too drunk to recall details. “You guys kept referring to alcohol, there was a couple of isolated incidents, there’s been times when I’ve been in a drunken stupor, that’s why I want to see the tape,” he said. “I want everyone in the city to see the tape. I’d like to see this tape. I don’t even recall there being a tape or a video.” Earlier in the day, two Toronto city councillors were attempting to limit Mayor Rob Ford’s powers via a notice of motion to be presented this month and debated in December. The motion, tabled by councillors John Filion and Paul Ainslie, sets the stage for a showdown at the December council meeting. It asks that city council suspend the mayor’s power to appoint and dismiss the deputy mayor and standing committee chairs. It would remove the mayor’s ability to shuffle the members of his executive committee and hand that power over to city council at large. The motion cites the police documents and investigations revealed last week as the motivation to strip the mayor of his ability to pick and choose his executive committee. “It appears that a majority of members of council and a significant number of members of the executive committee have expressed serious concerns about the mayor’s ability to lead the city government at this time,” the motion reads. “He’s got to step aside. Take a break. Get some help,” says Councillor Paula Fletcher. 305 to his city. Drugs are very bad m’kay! Continue reading →
