Facebook’s rocky trading start has been fodder for a to of media, including us. But let’s give credit where it’s due for today’s headline of the day.

He’s just doing what we’re all thinking
Man, unruly people at the movies are the worst! Oh sure, you might think that as the resident film critic over here at SG, that’s a totally biased opinion. Well, person I do not care to speak to, you’d be wrong, as it’s a certifiable fact. Don’t believe me? There are plenty of people who will agree with me, one of which is potentially Yong Hyun Kim.
Kim was enjoying a nice evening out at the cinema with his sweety when he was besieged by a 10 year old! A most unruly child, it must be added! According to Kim, popcorn was being thrown and loud, bothersome noise was being created by the fifth grader and his friends, destroying the fun of going out to the movies. Rather than talking to a manager, Kim allegedly asked them to knock it off. Their impudent response caused him to snap, resulting in him slapping one of them so hard the kid lost a tooth. Respect.
Look, I’m not saying you need to beat the kid … but having a little fear and respect wouldn’t exactly be a bad thing for him.
Own a piece of the Gipper
In 1981, President Ronald Reagan survived an assassination attempt. However, he was still shot and had to recover in a Washington, D.C. hospital. A blood sample was taken during his stay, and then, like the Holy GOP Grail, the vial vanished. Over time, the vial of Reagan’s blood faded to the status of a mere myth or Fox News fantasy. But today, the Republicans’ prayers have been answered (of course, they’re the only party that believes in God).
Reagan’s blood is real and up for auction right now. For only a few thousand British pounds, you can own a piece of the Gipper himself. This is terrible news for Republican hopeful Mitt Romney, because now that we have Reagan’s DNA, we all know he’s going to be cloned to serve again.
