- bunnies -- nm - Spawn Sep 14, 08:54 2
  - they are trouble. -- nm - tRuMaN Sep 14, 08:54 1
    - yup. nm -- nm - Donnie Darko Sep 14, 08:57
I wonder if this Kanye issue will have an impact on his tour this winter with Gaga? - MDH Sep 14, 08:49 4
- Why would it? Are people actually surprised his is an asshole? - Spawn Sep 14, 08:52 2
  - I guess it's just weird to me how different their core fanbases are -- nm - MDH Sep 14, 08:53 1
    - Which makes a $ tour. -- nm - Spawn Sep 14, 08:54
- Edit: I guess not much, they just announced their tour dates (literally minutes ago) -- nm - MDH Sep 14, 08:50
I wonder what my boss would think if he walked past and saw that one of my bookmark buttons said "Black Leather High ..." -- nm - Beryllium Sep 14, 08:49 1
- ::enrolls:: -- nm - Bery's Boss Sep 14, 08:52
I had forgotten until yesterday that the Band of Brothers team was working on a new HBO miniseries. - TFox Sep 14, 08:49 1
- March 2010. I posted the two trailers for it last night. -- nm - Beaker Sep 14, 08:50

- He looks horny. - Cuzzin Todd Sep 14, 08:45 1

Reagan/ty97: Someone beat SNL to the punch "Kanye West interrupts Obama's Speech" -- (link) - MDH Sep 14, 08:39 [youtube] 7
- You know what would be great, if Kanye interrupted Leno's monologue tonight with a pro-Conan statement. -- nm - Ender Sep 14, 08:47 2
  - Ever since that mention on B2 that Kanye is on Leno tonight I think there was more at work here. Sometimes a notion... -- nm - HdnAgnda Sep 14, 08:48 1
    - Except Viacom owns MTV and CBS. I don't see them being too eager to help out Leno. -- nm - Reagen Sep 14, 08:53
- yes, I saw that. But a skit would be more than just grafting that over a clip. -- nm - Reagen Sep 14, 08:41 3
  - Next up, Kanye West interrupting a papal blessing. -- nm - Was Bar Was Sep 14, 08:43 1
    - Exactly. They could turn it into a Buckwheat is Dead thing. -- nm - Reagen Sep 14, 08:43
  - Lately? Hardly. -- nm - Beryllium Sep 14, 08:42
Anyone besides me getting Marvel Ultimate Alliance 2 tomorrow? -- nm - Shaun Sep 14, 08:38 12

    - I think I played through the first UA 4 times. - groiny Sep 14, 08:54 1
      - Twice here, just to get the Hard achievement :) I really liked it and this one looks a billions times better. -- nm - Shaun Sep 14, 08:55
    - yep. -- nm - Remlik Sep 14, 08:53 1
      - I actually plan on ordering this very soon since I've never read it. -- (link) - Shaun Sep 14, 08:54

From the way the sports reports are written, you'd think Brett Favre threw for 300 yards and 3 TD's.... - Will Hunting Sep 14, 08:37 5
- they're just stunned he didn't throw 4 interceptions. -- nm - Remlik Sep 14, 08:46 2
  - the season is till young... -- nm - Beaker Sep 14, 08:46
  - Who would do that? -- nm - Jay Cutler Sep 14, 08:46
- my thoughts exactly. -- nm - Beaker Sep 14, 08:38
- It's like watching golf coverage and hearing them talk about Tiget even when he's kind of sucking. -- nm - Cuzzin Todd Sep 14, 08:38
What would ST do? (sorry, I'm probably going to obsess over this for the next few days...) - kelly Sep 14, 08:37 17
- Yes, don't worry about it, they are not giving you a Porsche. nm -- nm - groiny Sep 14, 08:46
- take the car, buy them dinner. then, afterwards, mail them a gift certificate or something, or make a donation to a charity in their name. -- nm - Andie Sep 14, 08:45
- discreetly find out what their favorite charity is and - Danedukenuuk Sep 14, 08:45
- I think the approach your taking is fine. Side question.... - ty97 Sep 14, 08:42 1
  - there shouldn't be -- nm - TFox Sep 14, 08:44
- If you really feel that guilty, trade her. -- nm - Spawn Sep 14, 08:42 1

- I think that sounds like a splendid, and entirely appropriate, idea -- nm - znufrii Sep 14, 08:39
- Take. The. Car. Bring wine for them. -- nm - Shaun Sep 14, 08:39 1
  - agreed -- nm - Beaker Sep 14, 08:40
- Yes. Stop obsessing. She isn't giving you a $5k present. You are saving them the hassle of figuring out what to do with it. - TFox Sep 14, 08:38 1
  - (Also, you lived around proud Italians long enough to know not to offer money if they insist on giving you a free car.) -- nm - TFox Sep 14, 08:43
(the SNL skit of Kanye interrupting random things just writes itself, no?) -- nm - Reagen Sep 14, 08:35 2

- Kanye and Joe Wilson together -- nm - ty97 Sep 14, 08:36

Lady Gaga is the Cher of fashion, we know this. But that last outfit (the white wreath on her head) was ridiculous and laughable. -- nm - ty97 Sep 14, 08:30 25
- Side note: I see her live in 2.5 weeks I will take pics for everyone to judge -- nm - MDH Sep 14, 08:35
- Whatever the eff she was wearing during Brand's opening monologue, with the phantom mask and shit? Was the dumbest thing I've ever seen. -- nm - TFox Sep 14, 08:33 5
  - that's a total ripoff of a Cher Oscar outfit. She's going for "most emailed photo". -- nm - loosilu Sep 14, 08:36 1
    - the other outfits were not very memorable. Dresses that made every woman look slightly extra-hippish, that didn't go much further south than the - ty97 Sep 14, 08:38
  - This? -- (link) - ty97 Sep 14, 08:35 2
    - Yeah, but when she was sitting down everything shifted and it looked like Jigsaw had her in a trap. -- nm - TFox Sep 14, 08:37
    - it looks like it's trying to eat her. -- nm - Reagen Sep 14, 08:36
- She looked like a crow last night! -- (link) - MDH Sep 14, 08:33 [Image]
- he's a great crossdresser for sure -- nm - Danedukenuuk Sep 14, 08:32
- Yeah, let's single that out as the one laughable thing she has ever worn -- nm - con_carne Sep 14, 08:31 1
  - It's elementary, my dear beefy -- (link) - ty97 Sep 14, 08:32
- there is a link rule. -- nm - loosilu Sep 14, 08:31 13
  - MTV.com has 19 photos of her multiple outifts, but here is the one I speak of -- (link) - ty97 Sep 14, 08:34 12
    - I do appreciate that it hides her face quite well. -- nm - Ender Sep 14, 08:41
    - she wanted to be a bird's nest? -- nm - zork Sep 14, 08:41
    - get a HOT WAX treatment buddy -- nm - Danedukenuuk Sep 14, 08:38
    - Doen't that look like someone we know? L5 -- nm - DeNiro Sep 14, 08:36
    - that's great. I love that there is a new person willing to dress crazy. -- nm - loosilu Sep 14, 08:35 7
      - I think she sort of peaked with the Kermit dress. Basically her next move is to just show up naked. -- nm - Reagen Sep 14, 08:37 1
        
        she literally has the body for it - Epiphany Sep 14, 08:56
      - scroll the gallery, I count at least five outfits - ty97 Sep 14, 08:36 4
        
        ok, so is there some kind of problem? My only issue is that she's trying too hard with the many outfits. -- nm - loosilu Sep 14, 08:37 3
        
        Problem no. It's part of her 'thing'. But the outfits, overly, were ridiculous and hideous. - ty97 Sep 14, 08:39 2
        
        hmmm, I think Cher did it better, honestly. Gaga is just throwing on random crap. -- nm - loosilu Sep 14, 08:41 1
        
        I don't think it's random. Every piece is theatrical and seems to have purpose behind it. -- nm - ty97 Sep 14, 08:43
ceregon, good point about gas in the car. i'm always running it right down to fumes. -- nm - zork Sep 14, 08:30
My football enthusiasm as done a 180 in the past 24 hours. Frickin unbelievable -- nm - oblique Sep 14, 08:28 7
- I feel you. -- nm - TFox, last year at this time Sep 14, 08:45
- Stunning right:? And now Urlacher out for the season. - pmb Sep 14, 08:44 1
  - /me waits for Anthony Gonzalez news - Spawn Sep 14, 08:51
- understandable....since Shalke won -- nm - Danedukenuuk Sep 14, 08:34
- I suppose we can both hold onto hope that the offense can get their act together? -- nm - Cuzzin Todd Sep 14, 08:32 2
  - The only thing I'm encouraged about is that both Hester and Bennett looked really good. The rest of the supposed veteran receivers - oblique Sep 14, 08:33 1
    - Hester was one of the few positives on offense last night. - Cuzzin Todd Sep 14, 08:35
Michelob Ultra's Smooth Pour bottle. Is there a rouh pour crisis I don't know about that is ruining the beer drinking experience? -- nm - HdnAgnda Sep 14, 08:28 4
- I think there are more important questions at stake here than how smooth is your pour... - znufrii Sep 14, 08:37 3
  - Ha! I am not. I just saw it in an ad. -- nm - HdnAgnda Sep 14, 08:41 2
    - And just so we're clear - Newcastle, Guinness, Corona Extra for a lighter beer and some of the Sam Adams varieties. -- nm - HdnAgnda Sep 14, 08:46 1
      - pretty much. -- nm - znufrii Sep 14, 08:52
Kayne West is no Ol Dirty Bastard - Brian Sep 14, 08:26 4
- At least Old Dirty was a) crazy enough and b) funny enough to get away with it. - TFox Sep 14, 08:32
- This is what I was saying last night. - Reagen Sep 14, 08:27 1
  - imagine if MmmBop had won instead! (they were up for Song of the Year) -- nm - loosilu Sep 14, 08:29
- He's done that before though, Kanye. -- nm - lileve Sep 14, 08:27
An error occurred while processing this request. -- nm - decline Sep 14, 08:23
Halloween costume discussions have begun. What are some good topical ones? I came up with Octomom and Joe Wilson. -- nm - loosilu Sep 14, 08:23 10
- Easy one: wear a hoodie and shades. When people ask what you are - con_carne Sep 14, 08:33
- An unemployed gay Wall Street trader without health insurance who is dressed up as Lady Gaga -- nm - con_carne Sep 14, 08:29 1
  - what does pixie have to do with Halloween? -- nm - loosilu Sep 14, 08:31
- wear anything weird and you can say you are Lady Gaga (pack a bulge for extra effect) -- nm - zork Sep 14, 08:28
- a giant tea bag. -- nm - Reagen Sep 14, 08:27
- Death panel? -- nm - PsiTouch Sep 14, 08:27 1
  - *nice* -- nm - loosilu Sep 14, 08:28
- Obamacare. -- nm - Beryllium Sep 14, 08:26 2
