– Once you have the Moleskine the talent follows right? RIGHT!?
I kid of course, I make comics which means no matter how badly written the story and dialogue are I just say “well I never said I was a writer”, and mumble something about composition and the effect J.H Williams III has had...

That or my inexplicable love for Vanessa Hudgens.
Apparently she turned down staring with Sarah Michelle Gellar in the Buffy movie, which despite earlier reports wouldn’t be a straight reboot (which I became convinced would have Vanessa Hudgens), more a passing of the aul torch to young Hudgens.
So why did she turn down a chance to a) be awesome and b) have a chance at an actual career?...

Dating Sites.
I don’t get it, it seems weird and artificial and contrived. Honestly the only reason I can see why someone would use it is so they have more control over the image they project and that seems wrong to me. This guy however has makes his living from it. Scott Valdez basically pretends to be you, lures woman in and then sets you up for an off line date for the low low price of $400 a month.

– Lindsey Hilsum, UK’s Channel 4 News International Editor
Hilsum challenges the rationale behind banning of the aforementioned items not allowed into the Gaza Strip by Israel’s blockade. If the interests for the blockade were solely for self-defense (as many apologists are quick to argue), then...

So who should Donald Glover play?
So it looks like Donald Glover won’t be getting an audition for Spider-Man, I’m going to hazard a guess and say it has something to do with the whole “he’s black” thing, which is a shame because he’d do a great job. That said there are plenty more pairs of tights in the Avengers Mansion so I compiled a list of character he could play. (Finding black characters...

Punk Band Arrested Over Asylum Seeker Smuggling →
”I was scared when I was in the cell,” said drummer Waldock. “I was thinking what if it all goes bad and it all gets blamed on us. I was sat in the front with the two Czech men on driving duties. When the lads told me there were people hiding in the speakers I just thought that they were joking because they had been winding me up all weekend.” Scared? Call...

God Hates Gaga Now As Well.
The Westboro Baptist Church (here after the Phelps family, because calling them a Church makes it sound like people actually choose to join them) have been acting as the mouthpiece for what’s grinding God’s gears for a while now and the big G has amassed a pretty long list of stuff he hates.
First it was those sneaky gays, then those gosh darn tolerant (i.e. sissy) fag-enablers, then the...
