The A List: Gay Housewives Have Stupid Fights

Brian Moylan · 09/27/11 12:04PM

Last night I was busy hanging out with a boy and watching Terra Nova so I didn't watch The A List. Instead I ran into Dustin & Jayden, Manhattan's most obnoxious homosexuals, this morning after they woke up on a bench in the 57th Street NRQ station. Here's what they had to say.

Michele Bachmann Warns of Hezbollah Parking Missiles in Cuba

Jim Newell · 09/27/11 11:57AM

Where does Michele Bachmann stand on normalizing trade relations with Cuba? Well. It's not particularly high on her priority list, let's say! Not merely because they're dirty commies. But also, apparently, because Cuba is working with Hezbollah to potentially set up missile sites on the island. Perhaps you might even call it a... Cuban Missile Crisis? Or is this something of an exaggeration?

Susan Sarandon Not Pepper-Sprayed at Wall Street Protests

Adrian Chen · 09/27/11 11:28AM

I was just watching the Livestream of the Occupy Wall Street protests (I'm too lazy to actually visit the protests, 13 minutes away) when who did I spot but Susan Sarandon! She chatted with protesters and was interviewed by a CNBC writer.

Real Housewives of Beverly Hills: The New Girl

Richard Lawson · 09/27/11 11:25AM

Last night's episode of The Witches of Westwick had some of the ladies traveling north to meet their enemies, while others faced demons more domestic. All told, another miserable installment!

Terra Nova: The Past Has a Bright Future

Brian Moylan · 09/27/11 11:02AM

I tuned into Fox and Steven Spielberg's much-delayed production Terra Nova last night with some trepidation. It was almost a duty to see just what this very expensive sci-fi show was going to be like but I also had a sense it would be sadly predictable and boring. Boy, was I wrong.

Tareq Salahi's Advice to Married Men: 'Stay Away from Journey'

Maureen O'Connor · 09/27/11 10:23AM

Tareq blames everything on Journey, then nuzzles a whoremonger and poses sexily in bed. Naomi Campbell blames her bad personality on abandonment issues. Kate Middleton spends four hours doing her hair. A male TV actor comes out of the closet. Tuesday gossip stopped believin' years ago.

Which Actress Got Written Out of Her Show for Bad Behavior?

Brian Moylan · 09/27/11 09:59AM

This actress insisted writers change her story line, they did and cut her character altogether. This celebrity couple's divorce is hard on the kids and this couple is having a hard time with a three-way. Looks like someone needs to be written out of that relationship.

Most College Students Are Part Time, and None of Them Graduate

Hamilton Nolan · 09/27/11 09:27AM

Since everyone in America aged 17-29 smartly decided to "wait out the recession" by enrolling in college—a magical fantasy land which temporarily makes your lack of purpose in life disappear—it stands to reason that college graduation rates would also be rising, right? All those motivated young go-getters just raring to acquire skills with which to grab the world by the throat, and eat it? Right? No.

Theater Professor's Firefly Poster Declared Threatening

Lauri Apple · 09/27/11 08:04AM

The campus police at the University of Wisconsin-Stout deserve praise, bravery medals, and $100 gift certificates to their favorite steakhouse for ripping down theater professor James Miller's Firefly poster before it could murder any students. Oh wait—not praise and etc., but ridicule.

Ice Cream Cone Mascot Mistaken for a KKK Member

Lauri Apple · 09/27/11 06:05AM

An ice cream shop in Ocala, Florida thought it would be a clever marketing tactic to have an employee dress up as an ice cream cone and stand out in the parking lot with a sign advertising their goods. Little did they know!

Man and His Machine Make the Ultimate Cosby Sweater

Lauri Apple · 09/27/11 04:26AM

Artist Andrew Salomone has used his hacked knitting machine—an electronic little number that operates similarly to a desktop printer—to create self-portrait face masks, soundwave scarves, and other garments inspired by the Jaclyn Smith Style Collection pop culture and technology. But his piece de resistance is the recursive Bill Cosby sweater, which Salomone (rhymes with "alimony") hopes will one day adorn the real-life, sartorially splendid Bill Cosby. Such an occurrence would not only complete the sweater's pattern but also cause geomagnetic reversal. [YouTube via Buzzfeed]

Patti Stanger Is a Lying Liar

Matt Cherette · 09/27/11 03:15AM

Following Millionaire Matchmaker Patti Stanger's appearance alongside Andy Cohen on Bravo's Watch What Happens Live Sunday night, we posted a video of her reinforcing negative stereotypes of gay men with stupid statements disguised as dating advice.

Stephen Colbert Salutes Google for Spreading Santorum

Matt Cherette · 09/27/11 03:08AM

Before Radiohead took the reins on tonight's Report, Stephen Colbert made sure to get in a few words about just how smitten he is with Google for its recent one-two punch of anarchy—first, by denying Rick Santorum's request to wipe his Santorum from its results page, and then by sending feisty chairman Eric Schmidt into a Senate panel investigating allegations the company practiced search discrimination against certain competitors.

Watch Canada Give Dick Cheney a War Criminal's Welcome

Seth Abramovitch · 09/27/11 02:36AM

Dick Cheney's historical revision, In My Time: A Personal and Political Memoir, was the latest selection at an author lecture series in Vancouver on Monday. In honor of this rare visit from Bush's bionic henchman, a large crowd of protesters gathered outside the Vancouver Club. They grew increasingly unruly as the day went on (watch the protest grow in the above video), shouting down and blocking the entrance to guests who'd paid $500 for the privilege of hearing Cheney speak.

Cemetery Worker Robs Grave of Fender Telecaster

Seth Abramovitch · 09/27/11 01:53AM

Rock n' roll grave robber Steven Conard, a 39-year-old grounds worker at the Allouez Catholic Cemetery in Wisconsin, was placed under arrest on Saturday and charged with "felony theft from person or corpse." Confronted at his home, Conard had confessed to removing a Fender Telecaster from the coffin of Randall Jourdan, a beloved father and grandfather who for years told everyone he knew that his dying wish was to be buried with the "pride and joy" guitar he'd played for over 40 years.
