Do not, for any reason, try to open your car door and knock a kid off a bike. In this video, seen on Comedy Central’s Tosh.0, one smart ass, sitting in the back seat of a moving car, attempted just that, swinging his door open and attempting to derail an unsuspecting biker. It probably seemed like a funny idea at the time. Until karma, or just a car, came from the other direction … Kar(ma) Smashes Into Kid
The release of Steve Jobs’ biography by Walter Isaacson has been given the obligatory NMA treatment. What did the Taiwanese animators of current events do with this? It’s no Tiger Woods scandal reenactment, but it’s close. Ghost Steve Jobs as a technical Obi-Wan Kanobi, appearing before Tim Cook in hologram form, projected via iPhone 4: Too soon? Probably. Too funny? Definitely. Steve Jobs Biography Release: NMA Style Steve Jobs passed away just a few weeks before the release of his widely-anticipated biography. According to the book (or at least Next Media Animation), Jobs: Didn’t ask to read his biography Wished he’d had surgery to fight cancer sooner Told Barack Obama he would become a one-term president Told Bill Gates to broaden his horizons by dropping acid Can use the Force to guide Apple from the great beyond Plans to nuke Google and Android Why read the book after this brilliant, cartoonish synopsis?
Harry Belafonte apparently needs to get to bed earlier. Or maybe he was just in some deep, transcendental meditative state. Either way, dude could not wake up for an interview with KBAK in Bakersfield, Calif., while ON THE AIR. Watch the anchors cut to the 84-year-old singer, only to find him out cold: Harry Belafonte Sleeps Through Interview The best part came as the news team, referencing his classic hit, “Day-O”, began cracking jokes such as “Guess daylight hasn’t come, man.” Awesome. Later, Harry Belafonte’s rep, Ken Sunshine (yup, that’s his name, you can’t make this up), insisted he was in fact meditating through the satellite sit-down. “After weeks of literally hundreds of interviews promoting his HBO documentary, memoir and CD, Mr. Belafonte had an early morning satellite TV tour.” “True to form, there was a technical glitch. His earpiece wasn’t working, so he decided to take the time to meditate before the rest of his Day-O.” Well played . “Maybe the world would be a better place if more people took a moment to meditate,” adds Mr. Sunshine. And to that, we ask: Was Harry …
Saturday Night Live went political last weekend with a faux Republican debate, seating the candidates – as was the case in the last real debate – in order of poll numbers. Only bottom-feeder Rick Santorum was banished to a local gay bar instead of the debate table where contenders Herman Cain , Mitt Romney et al., were seated. Needless to say, that did not go over well with the homophobe. The cuts to SNL ‘s faux Santorum (played by Andy Samberg) were funny due to his expressions, but more so due to their infrequency. Dude is just irrelevant now. The decision to stick Rick in a gay bar of all places no doubt stems from his views on the LGBT community and the fact that he recently got so pissed at Google . Santorum, in response, feels like he’s being singled out for having strong views on “traditional marriage” a.k.a. despising homosexuals and all they stand for. Really, though, what make the skit was Rick’s declining importance. The lack of attention they paid Samberg reflected his 1-3 percent poll average brilliantly. Santorum’s comeback is posted below you care what he has to say, which you likely don’t. That’s the point. Time to back up the bus and head home, man. Rick Santorum Goes Off on SNL
In the latest issue of Great Britain’s GQ , Kristen Stewart admits that Robert Pattinson is her boyfriend . Exciting? Yes. Controversial? No. But the actress also was asked by the magazine about her experience as a student and gave the following revealing answer, explaining that she was “self-conscious” with her peers due to her acting career – and her teachers made things worse: “They didn’t want to do the extra work or put packages together so I could keep up while away. My teachers failed me. Not one, but all of them. I’m always slightly ashamed in a way about what I do. I’m slightly embarrassed, as I had such serious ambitions when I was younger, I just never imagined that I would ever have a reason not to go to school. But then this happened.” Kristen dropped out and became home-schooled because, she admits, “school became genuinely uncomfortable.” Fortunately, life has turned out okay for the actress. Remember who she’s dating, after all.
As the Occupy Wall Street “movement” rages on, the protesters Herman Cain hates are realizing that their mission is being heavily advertised … why not make like the GOP Presidential hopeful and create a memorable tagline for it? All the marches and sit-ins to protest socioeconomic inequality are being videotaped and photographed so much that it’s become social media phenomenon as much as a political one. Depressing as the subject matter is, these are pretty good. Here are our Top 10 favorite Occupy Wall Street signs, as seen on Twitter:
Chalk it up to East Coast bias? Not enough coffee? Sleeping through 9th grade geography? Whatever the reason, the press corps traveling with President Obama on a campaign swing out west this week were given a map identifying Wyoming as Colorado. The two rectangular states do look similar, but come on. Colorado is not only crucial to Obama’s re-election, it’s where he gave his ’08 convention speech. Weak! Obama’s three-day swing took him to Washington, California and Colorado, where he held public events and private fundraisers for his 2012 re-election bid. Tuesday in Denver, an audience saw a speech on Obama’s jobs program . The larger point of the trip was to help Obama reconnect with voters and gain media coverage in Colorado, which is expected to be a swing state in 2012. As for Wyoming, Obama lost by 32 PERCENT to John McCain in ’08. Maybe subconsciously he blocked that out and forgot the state exists, resulting in this error.
Gerard Depardieu may have grossed many people out when he urinated on an Air France flight this week, but the French actor cracked CNN host Anderson Cooper up. Or, to be more specific, the numerous puns associated with Depardieu’s ridiculous action led to an uncontrollable laughing fit from the anchor. “Some unlucky cleaning crew had to deal with the Golden Globe-winning tinkle. All I can say is they should thank their lucky stars it wasn’t DepardTwo,” Anderson said… and then he lost it: Anderson Cooper Cracks Up
Octomom Nadya Suleman made another startling claim today, accusing her former fertility doctor, Michael Kamrava, of having her sign crucial paperwork she was “not lucid” and under the influence of “valium and a cocktail of drugs.” So she claims, anyway. In a talk with Dr. Drew Thursday, Octomom said she was not of sound mind when she signed a consent form for 12 embryos to be implanted inside her. One thing led to another, and she had eight babies in January 2009. Nadya Suleman claims Kamrava “wrote something [and] he gave it to me to sign” inside his Beverly Hills office before the procedure was completed. “I signed it, and I didn’t read it,” Suleman said, adding tha
Tennis star Andy Roddick must have decided that a shirt only impedes his mammoth first serve … because he ditched it for this new Lacoste commercial! A-Rodd absolutely aces the spot for the new Lacoste Challenge 2 fragrance (it smells like tennis balls), showing off his crazy skillz and ripped physique. It doesn’t really smell like tennis balls. We made that up. Ladies everywhere wouldn’t mind getting close enough to find out for themselves, however. Damn you, Brooklyn Decker … Andy Roddick Lacoste Fragrance Ad
