MasterChugs Theater: ‘Roman Holiday’

One can’t help but wonder how Roman Holiday would have been different is it was made today instead of in 1953. The Gregory Peck-Audrey Hepburn classic features a reporter in Rome and an incognito princess both pretending they’re someone else. Of course, he knows she’s playing hooky from her royal family and he’s out to write the story of a lifetime (with photographer pal Eddie Albert in a priceless role). She on the other hand is oblivious to what’s going on. She wants to have a little fun outside the watchful eyes of her keepers. Of course they fall in looooove along the way.

Guys, this is a good thing for you. Stick around to find out why. Continue reading MasterChugs Theater: ‘Roman Holiday’

Obsolescense, ho!

If you hadn’t noticed before, Facebook is reaching the end of its online life cycle. The social networking site’s new partnership with AOL seals the deal.

AOL has been back on the market since December 2009 after doing absolutely nothing for Time Warner for eight years. (Time Warner tried to get out of their obligation earlier, but AOL kept sending bills anyway.)

We’re calling it, folks. Facebook Internet time of death: February 11, 2010, 11:25 A.M.

Even high schoolers are pretty pervy

It’s one thing to ride around a town in a big, white pedo-van while toting free candy to kids. But if you’re in high school-that’s still creepy, especially considering that you might be so young that it’s almost not creepy that you’re lusting over children. Almost.

A student from Souma City was arrested yesterday for being the one that heads up a child pornography BBS website. He did his “work” on free computers available in the city’s culture center. Not the brightest perv ever.

What does he have to say for himself? Get this:

“I like looking at nude boys, and had a collection of about 1,500 photos. I wanted people with similar interests to share the same joy.”

They have organizations for that, buddy. They’re not exactly looked highly upon either. It’s being reported that he was busted specifically over six photos of naked boys under 10 years of age, posted on the site between July and December 2009. Ewwww.

Have you helped Haiti yet?

We know you feel bad about the earthquake in Haiti, and we hope you have donated in some way to the tragedy. There are so many ways to help the troubled country, the New Orleans Saints did their best by winning the Super Bowl, unfortunately, Pierre Garçon, who is Haitian-American, was on the Colts.

Having you considered giving back by getting a lap dance?

A strip club in Toledo, Ohio offered a promotion they subtly titled “Lap Dances for Haiti.” The only problem is that lap dances are illegal in Ohio, so they just charged a $10 cover charge which raised nearly $1,000 for International Services of Hope.

Key quote: “You don’t hear much about strip clubs giving back to the community.”

The relief effort went far better than the strip club’s attempt to help build schools on Native American reservations, called “Lap Dances with Wolves.”
