If you’re gay, this was probably a big week for you. First, some dude from the New York Giants said gay marriage would lead to anarchy (because everyone knows there are no gay people in the NFL), then the U.N. Human Rights Council passed a resolution supporting the rights everyone, regardless of sexual orientation. Then, a California court overturned the state’s gay marriage band. Oh yeah, there were the Tony Awards, too. If you were busy resigning from office, odds are you missed it.

To the delight of dozens of hockey fans in the U.S., and none in Canada, the Boston Bruins won their first Stanley Cup (the award you get when you win the championship) in 39 years. Canadians, long known for their irrational moods, rioted in Vancouver. But in the midst of it all, two crazy kids found love, and found it by making out on the street while police in riot gear cleared out the crowds. I have always said that hockey is one of the most romantic sports out there.
I’ve been hacked
LulzSec, the group or whatever responsible for hacking Sony’s servers, hit the U.S. Senate and CIA web sites this week. They also released a statement saying that they release people’s web site account data purely for entertainment. In other news, I suddenly have a great cover story for when my girlfriend asks why I was shipped sundresses in my size.
The gang is down to fight
This week, Rebecca Black’s “Friday” music video was pulled from You Tube this week, amid legal issues. Her lawyers took down the song because of an ongoing battle with Black’s label, which they charge has been using the song for promotions without compensating the teen. In other news, it’s taken the better part of a decade, but a video was finally pulled from YouTube and no one’s upset about it.
