People Doing Stuff. Amazing video. They move with such purpose.

I kinda love this video

I think the idea for this video was lifted from Doug Benson’s “I Love Moviespodcast but it’s amazing nonetheless

Later, in North Carolina, we sat down to dinner, and [Dick Armey] said: “You ever see that Danny DeVito movie, I think it was Danny DeVito, where he says big shots never order off the menu? They just say what they want.” We were at an On the Border, a Tex-Mex restaurant chain and not the type of place I imagine many big shots patronize, but he pushed the menu aside without reading it and told the waiter what he wanted the kitchen to cook up for him.
Dick Armey is a gigante douchenozzle

New trailer for The Road…this gives me slightly more hope that it won’t completely suck.  I like how so much of the dialogue was lifted straight from the book; the folks who adapted this screenplay didn’t have to do all that much adaptation.

This dude wrote a rap song about Alexander Hamilton that is pretty sweet…I had no idea Alexander Hamilton started life as a penniless orphan in St. Croix who was the product of illegitimate birth.  That’s so hardcore.

It was followed by a story about making a sex tape. Peanut, a hyperactive purple Muppetish dummy, kicked off his portion of the show just by saying different words for breasts — “bodacious ta-tas” got the biggest laugh — and closed with a bit about ordering Chinese food, done in a preposterous Fu Manchu accent. By the encore, when Dunham brought out his redneck character to do a routine from his first DVD, all 7,000 people in the arena were ecstatically chanting the dummy’s punch lines together — a choir of thrown voices. (Dunham: “Do you have a drinking problem?” Everyone: “No! I’ve pretty much got it figured out!”) Then, when it was over — after Dunham fired some balled-up Jeff Dunham T-shirts into the upper decks with the kind of air-powered bazooka you see during N.B.A. halftimes — he literally ran out the arena’s back door and onto his bus, where he went back to work on the Umpire. “This is so scary for me,” he said, applying a critical bit of glue to the right temple. Outside, fans had ringed the front of the tour bus. You could hear them whenever the door opened. They were chanting: “Jeff! Jeff! Jeff!

Somehow, after I read these words, the world was not sucked into Beelzebub’s fetid anus like the flame of a recklessly ignited hellfart.

Then again, there are about five more pages to read.

The Ultimate Warrior on the Arsenio Hall Show

Randomly stumbled on to this gem last night. Fast forward to :45 when the Warrior comes on and proceeds to just define the term going apeshit.

I never much cared for The Ultimate Warrior as a kid, but now I think I was wrong.  The Ultimate Warrior was awesome.

Ralph gets to luxuriate in the purity of his irrelevance…meanwhile, we’re in there, fighting for this thing

Barney Frank, in response to Ralph Nader’s criticism

I can’t stand Ralph Nader anymore…fuck that dude.  He’s been useless to progressives for this entire decade, and he probably cost Gore the election. What an incredible douchenozzle Nader has become.

Also, I have a man crush on Barney Frank.  Obvs.
