Batkid Makes Way Through San Francisco, City Honors Young Cancer Survivor

Fear not, residents of San Francisco. Your streets are especially safe today. In one of the cooler stories of the year, over 12,000 people lined the streets of that city today to honor a five-year old named Miles. The toddler – who likes to “be a superhero,” according to his mom – has been battling leukemia since he was 18 months old, but had his final treatment in June. Batkid Makes Way Through San Francisco To celebrate the occasion, the Make-A-Wish Foundation in the Bay Area helped organize a Gotham City-like experience for Miles today: he rode around in a Batmobile… he rescued a damsel in distress… he was given the key to the city at City Hall. The San Francisco Chronicle even printed a special edition of the paper and handed it out to those in Union Square for the occasion: Said Audrey Cooper, managing editor of the Chronicle, via email: “This is what I love about San Francisco. We’re a quirky city that loves freethinkers. We totally understand a 5-year-old cancer survivor who wants to dress up like Batman.” President Barack Obama even got in on the trending topic, re-Tweeting a picture of Batkid along with the caption “Here he comes!” Here he comes, indeed. Well done, San Francisco.

Curse Of The Kardashians: Yeezus’ Popularity Plummeted After He Started Smashing Kimmy Cakes To Smithereens

We actually think his popularity is down because he is an arrogant a–hole. Kanye’s Popularity Decreases Because Of Kim Kardashian Sure, him attacking the paparazzi and saying Kimmy Cakes is more influential than Michelle Obama had nothing to do with it. According to The National Enquirer: KANYE WEST’s popularity on the downslide after getting horizontal with KIM K – industry analysis. In less than two years, the 19-time Grammy-award winner’s likability has nosedived by a whopping 66 percent, according to the influential Q scores, a closely watched measure of recognition and popularity that marketers use to evaluate celebrities’ appeal. Before West began dating the 33-year-old Kardashian star in April 2012, his score was high — a 17 among women aged 18-49.What’s more, the 36-year-old father-of-one was rated even more lofty — a score of 19 — among men 18-34 dating as far back as February 2011. But shockingly, West’s popularity has plummeted to a mere 3 among women 18-49, the latest results from September reveal.He’s hemorrhaged popularity among his core fan base of men too, but not as significantly as women: West’s most recent Q Score among the 18-34 male demographic was a lowly 13. West’s fading stardom in the influential poll — also used by companies and advertisers to help make major endorsement decisions — began several months after his relationship with the E! star went public and has continued amid his clashes with the paparazzi and other celebs, RadarOnline reported. “Kanye has had a significant drop among women,” Henry Schafer, Executive Vice President of the Q Scores Company, said. “It’s surprising.” Not really. Kanye has been a source of derision since he was lambasted by South Park years ago in their classic “Gay Fish” ep but now even his most ardent admirers seem to have had enough of his ties to the Kardashians. Kanye can control Kim, but he can’t control people not giving a fawk about him. WENN

Really?? Woman Says President Obama Used To Chop Down Gay Men In Exchange For Yayo

This lady is a little cray-cray. Woman Says Obama Engaged In Gay Sex For Yayo Why can’t these nut jobs let President Obama be great? According to Raw Story: A woman claiming to be a former classmate says she recalls President Barack Obama as a cross-dressing teenager who engaged in gay sex with older men in exchange for yayo. The woman, Mia Marie Pope, told Pastor James David Manning that the future president “always presented himself as a foreign student” during the late 1970s in Hawaii, and she’s called the FBI in recent years to report that the president is using phony Social Security numbers. Pope says she wondered whether Obama had “changed his ways” after he emerged as a national political figure, but she told Manning, who has called Obama’s mother “white trash” and compared the president to Satan, the adult Obama was little different than the teenager she’d known. She says the teenage Obama was an egotist and “pathological liar” whose falsehoods were always intended to “boost himself,” and she also says he was insufficiently grateful when others gave him cigarettes. “He seemed to be incapable or genuine about anything,” Pope said. Pope said she knew Obama was deeply involved in Waikiki beach’s “thriving” gay community as a teen, even though the future president was a few years older and had a different circle of friends. “We knew Barry as, just common knowledge, that girls were never anything that he was ever interested in,” Pope said, denying that she had been romantically interested in a young Obama. Pope also said she knew Obama used yayo, which would have been “newsworthy” to her peer group at the time, and she believes the future president engaged in sexual activity in exchange for the drug. “In other words, he was having sex with these older white guys, and that’s how he was getting his yayo to be able to freebase,” Pope said. She also suggested that Obama used his connections to these older men or possibly a government agency such as the CIA to gain entry to the prestigious Punahou School. “It was certainly not a natural thing,” Pope said. Pope told Manning, pastor of ATLAH World Missionary Church, that she’d come forward with her claims as a Christian who’s concerned about the United States. “I refuse to be a coward,” she said. SMH. What the hell??
