Angus T. Jones of Two-and-a-Half-Men infamy (although approximately no one was watching the show because they were such a fan of him…even fans of the show would probably say “Angus T. Who?”) was let go from the show and demoted to a possible recurring character instead of a series regular, most likely because he made a YouTube video calling the show trash with low moral value. Well the show is trash with low intelligence value but between Angus and Charlie Sheen, I’m wondering if it’s written in the stars somewhere that only Jon Cryer can appreciate getting paid millions of dollars a year to tell the same five jokes.
Hotmail is officially gone. Great, now what fake email address can I give out whenever I register to comment on a site?
In Gloversville, New York, an ice cream war broke out over turf. [I’m not kidding, please do yourself a favor and google this story.] A Mr. Ding-a-Ling driver tried to move into town, and a Sno Cone Joe’s vendor said “You don’t have a chance! This is my town!” Then he began a months long stalking/harassing campaign of threats, intimidating, and constantly driving by when Mr. Ding-a-Ling was about to make a sale. Just imagine a low-speed chase with two ice cream trucks going after each other and I think Hollywood’s got their next Stallone/Schwarzenneger team-up.
Disney pulls out of Bangladesh and Pakistan, citing safety concerns with their factories after a Bangladeshi factory collapsed last week…Always ready to poach a business, Texas Governor Rick Perry offered them “completely safe” working conditions in the town of Waco, Texas.
Asshole of the Week: Any media outlet that thinks people are still interested in the minutiae of the Boston bomber’s lives. “What did they have breakfast that morning?” “Would there be other attacks…in their dreams?” “Was their dog anti-American too?” The desperation with which they’ve tried to spin this into another 9/11 is borderline-unseemly.
