Literally everything that is wrong with the world in this picture right here. The top trend on Twitter right now is #TheDress where people are lacing up their boots and going to war over the color of this dress. And it’s not bickering over shades of blue and black, people are somehow getting gold and white out of this.
The people who see gold are absolutely out of their minds. Probably the same people who think they’re using a gold pen at work.
One of the first things you notice if you ever travel east, say to NY, Philly, or DC, is the propensity for drivers to lay on their horn. In the Burgh however, it is seldom used and you cannot appreciate the peace and quiet until you’re stuck in a circle around Philly’s City Hall getting honked at from every angle by all the illegal taxi drivers.
Well this afternoon, for a brief moment, I thought I walked out of Dunkin and onto one of those insane east coast city streets. It didn’t take long to realize the problem, this Yinzer broad was so far into an intersection she was taking up an entire lane and a part of a second lane.
On one level I wanna give kudos because it was clear she did not give a fuck. At the same time, having seen the creature of a person at the wheel, I’m positive she had zero clue what was going on. Chances were she was getting into a fender bender at any moment after this.
Christina Aguilera was on Jimmy Fallon this week to promote The Voice and per usual when Jimmy has a musical guest they played a game revolving around music. This time they were called to impersonate other famous musicians and Xtina knocked her first challenge, Cher singing the Folgers jingle, out of the park. Song 2 however started to stir the pot and generate some viral attention. She had to impersonate her long time rival, Britney Spears, to the tune of “Little Piggy.” The impersonation was pretty dead on but watching 2015 Christina sing about pigs was disgusting to the point where I started to think I smelt cheese.
That got me thinking. Who has aged better? Sure they’ve gone through some radical changes with the infamous Britney shaved head and Christina ballooning up a few times but overall who has done it better?
”Dirty” Christina was the talk of the town back in the day for obvious reasons. In hindsight however, against current Christina, all I can see is a fat face begging to come out and play. While I’m not here to fat shame, I’m just not feeling the Xtina vibe anymore.
A year prior to “Dirty” Britney premiered her own slut fest of a music video with “I’m a Slave for You.” Her performance at the 2001 VMA’s triggered adolescent boys across the country to sneak to the bathroom real quick to crack stick and for good reason. From there she’s done her own ballooning and had some drastically different looks but based on a recent photo she tweeted of a photoshoot she carries that same delicate charm she debuted in the late 90’s.
The winner of tonight Smut War? It’s Britney bitch.
Well that was a fun year for Chicago. The Bulls thought the East was wide open and now the Cavs are hot and boom your franchise guys knees failed him again.
Meanwhile on ice Patrick Kane leaves the game after crashing into the boards. I doubt he misses much time but got has a mysterious way with his games.
Just yesterday I was asked about the Cubs win total being over/under 86. Theres a lot of prime young talent and they’ve god a guy in Joe Maddon who can win with inexperience. Real nasty combo there.
On the Southside, they’ve added another Ace and have their Cuban Missle ready to launch. God crushes in threes so one of these teams are about to get it real hard in the pooper.
Lets keep the Cubbies in the basement a little longer and extend the Buccos playoff streak.
Onward StateWelp. Keith Olbermann is back at it. Except this time, he’ll be more hard-pressed to find support from his blind followers. Apparently lacking the attention he so desperately needs, his latest cry for validation used THON and its $13 million total for the kids as a springboard into calling Penn State students “pitiful.”
If there is anyone out there who can go toe to toe with a Penn Stater, its Keith Olbermann. At Penn State Debate 101 the first two things they teach is to throw logic right out of the window and ignore any legitimate argument presented.
“Joe Paterno was a god and ran that city for decades!”
Oh than why didn’t he pull the god card and shut down all the rapes he heard about?
“ERRONEOUS ERRONEOUS ERRONEOUS!”
The thing that hurts Keith here is he’s so damn smart he is, in essence, arguing in the clouds, well above the comprehension level of his current foe.
At this point, it would be best for Keith to wave the white flag. His brain is still hung up on the gross things that went on at Penn State and how the students and alumni played the victim card when sanctions were handed down. He makes a very good point, but in this case maybe should see the whole picture.
To the contrary, Penn State people need to realize that your image still has a ton of tarnish and while your donation efforts are top notch, its OK for people to still think you’re scumbags. If you’re going to fly off the handle are start sparring on Twitter, you should probably proofread.
The funny thing is that through all this banter, at the end of the day, Penn State doesn’t exist to be philanthropic, or be a football powerhouse, it’s there to educate. While millions of graduates will go on to do big things, those who have the spotlight during this debate have done a poor job displaying the benefits of a Penn State education.
Side note, Keith absolutely murdered Penn State in his rant last month. If you consider his tweet(s) an extension of the rant on his show, he is the undisputed champion of debating.
UPDATE
ESPNWe are aware of the exchange Keith Olbermann had on Twitter last night regarding Penn State. It was completely inappropriate and does not reflect the views of ESPN. We have discussed it with Keith, who recognizes he was wrong. ESPN and Keith have agreed that he will not host his show for the remainder of this week and will return on Monday. The annual tradition of THON and the efforts of the students of Penn State to fight pediatric cancer should be applauded.”
Time is a flat circle. Classic tale here, Keith poke’s the bear and makes a lot of valid points. Unfortunately for him it’s a girl bear, during that time of the month, and all her little cubs have gone on to become big shots at ESPN aka his employer.
I apologize for the PSU tweets. I was stupid and childish and way less mature than the students there who did such a great fundraising job.
Fair enough, let him live. ESPN knew the kind of controversial guy they were getting when they brought him back. That’s why he’s in isolation in a New York studio and seldom is cross promoted with other shows. The good news for Keith is when he gets back he already has his “Worst Person in the Sporting World.”
EWGo go gritty Power Rangers? While a big screen reboot is in the works, director Joseph Kahn, whose most recent work includes Taylor Swift’s “Blank Space” music video, debuted his fan film take on the Mighty Morphin Power Rangers, and he has some surprising star power on hand to help. James Van Der Beek and Katee Sackhoff star in this 14-minute short film that takes the goofy, colorful fun of the original Power Rangers series and plays it as straight and serious as possible. The thing is, though, Power/Rangers works.
It was awesome when they announced Power Rangers would return to the silver screen in Summer 2016. Granted, Hollywood has a history of crushing nostalgia and trying too hard to monetize the good times, but after Pacific Rim, it was clear a Power Rangers movie could work.
Then today, this little 14 minute piece of pure excellence hit the internet. Some have called referred to it as the Michael Bay version of Power Rangers, but that is a farce. It has special effects but doesn’t rely on them because the story line kicks ass. Offers a practical spin to the Power Rangers.
What happened to Bulk and Skull? Oh they became for hire mercenaries.
Zach? Of course he’s doing blow with naked hotties in his bed.
Tommy and Kim obviously are married with little Power Ranger kids right? Au contraire mon frere.
Spoiler alert if you didn’t watch…. Kim died in Tommy’s arms long ago and was the first of the Rangers to be offed one by one setting up a superfan’s wet dream of Tommy vs Rita. Every second of this makes sense and unfortunately set’s the bar way to high for whatever Hollywood is cooking up. The only thing that could have made this better is if they actually pulled in the original Green Ranger.

SourceApple has today delivered a new beta of OS X to developers that comes with a major new feature: diverse emoji.
Apple dropped their latest iOS beta to developers and included the new emojis they teased months ago. Included in the update are many of the same characters you’ve come to love, with a a freah coat of paint.
Now when you’re having a spirited discussion about Jaundice theres all kinds of emojis finally at your disposal to illustrate your point.
The Santa emoji also received a series of paint jobs.
Wish I could be a fly on the wall the first time you let your kid play with your iPhone and he runs in screaming there’s all these different Santas, 5 of which look nothing like you have lead them to believe the “real” Santa looked like.
I only use the flexing emoji so hopefully some hardo developer slid some more poses in for me. 💪
Seriously committee WTF. This was Michael Keaton’s year. I think what may have played against Keaton was how close to home his character was. “Ex superhero actor’s journey finding a way back to the entertainment industry.” Shit that could have been a biopic and he didn’t even have to act.
In addition to Oscars for Best Director and Best Screenplay, Birdman also took home the Oscar for Best Picture. I’m not even sure it faced that stiff of competition. Everyone I know who gave the Budapest Hotel a shot turned it off before the opening credits ended. While I loved American Sniper, I get the political undertones probably cost it a few votes and understand why it didn’t win. Boyhood was a 13 year waste of time and just creepy. Selma was your token race flick, that won’t win again for another few years thanks to 12 Years a Slave in 2014.
The Best Picture, with the Best Director, Best Screenplay, Best Cinematographer… but not Best Actor in the lead/title role? I call bullshit. That was Michael Keaton’s award damnit. I’m just glad The Theory of Everything didn’t steal any other awards. You can’t sex up Stephen Hawking’s wife from 1965 with Felicity Jones and expect me to buy it. I call umbrage.
This years famed sex flick didn’t even sex up their main characters. You just can’t come out swinging like this.
Congrats to “The Yuppie Yinzer’s” Inaugural “Yinzer of the Year,” Michael Keaton. Heck of a film and I stand by my belief that you were robbed of another Oscar this year.
As we approach the final stretch of the season it’s about time for the Pens to put the pedal to the metal and go on a hot streak for the cup. Geno and Hornqvist each lit the lamp twice and Fleury stopped 35 of 36 but the big performer was this dancing sensation. Abby Lee has had the breakout dancing star market cornered for sometime but a Stanley Cup has a way of bringing out dance moves you never knew you had.
Lots of potential here but your girl Maddie Ziegler still owns the city.
Wish I could be a fly on the wall the first time you let your kid play with your iPhone and he runs in screaming there’s all these different Santas, 5 of which look nothing like you have lead them to believe the “real” Santa looked like.
