Jared showed up making fun of people on To Catch a Predator One more Jared story... It should be noted that the video seems to be taken down in a few spots, so this one might be gone soon. I found this gem on Reddit. The sheer irony is pure gold. Given he started openly talking about his horrible acts as if he couldn't get caught. What an ass. 

Jessica Alba being sued Do you remember this actress? At a time, she was the it “hot” girl in Hollywood and everyone pretended like she was the second coming. She sort of started out on TV with her own show, and moved to movies fairly quickly. The only problem this climb to fame is that she can't act...at all. I think her worst acting gigs were her roles in the Fantastic Four movies. Where she literally looked like she was reading from cue cards. Why couldn't have at least tried to get a better actress for the female superhero role? And, does anyone remember Honey? And, what about that Dane Cook movie? She sort of disappeared and suddenly started showing up on TV again, except it was on during late. She switched from being a bad actress to a leader of paid commercials with her Honest Company. Now, she's getting press for being sued for her products from her Honest Company. When you name your company Honest, you're askin...

Random Things (Friday Edition)  ~ Kim Davis: Okay, you have convictions , but for the wrong reasons. She is the clerk that refuses to give out marriage licenses to gay couples. It just seems misguided and she is merely trying to start a crusade and to become a “hero” to the religious right. To deny someone the right to be happy, though I think marriage is a highly flawed concept, seems wrong to me. And, I am getting the vibe she is doing this to merely get other religious nuts to stand up against gay marriage. I hate this grandstanding on both sides of the political sides, but the right side does annoy me more when it comes to this shit.  ~Been Watching Project Greenlight Season 2: Man, that was a long time ago. HBO has been showing the old episodes from the first two seasons. I remember really enjoying the show. While I love seeing the film-making stuff, it is interesting to see how everything can go wrong on a set with these two directors. I hated Kyle...

Random Stuff ~Learning to deal with stress: I've been in a lot stress dealing with my depression and other issues. However, I got to let certain things go if I am to make it through life. Don't sweat the small stuff and all that shit. I just need to deal with things that I can control.  Now, we have the Boobless logo.  Less boobs more coffee and hipster shit?  ~Starbucks: I've noticed more and more of these stores popping up like warts. I really do hate this company, but damn they're doing great. They're like a bad rash that keeps spreading whenever you scratch. I just get a bad vibe from this company, plus I don't drink coffee. I am more of an energy drink kind of person and I down those things regularly.  ~The Flash: As I watch the episodes on demand, I am really digging this show. And, I watched the Arrow/Flash crossover episodes and fell in love with the show. While I don't watch every episode, I like the arc-style storytelling...

Hardcore History I've just found a new podcast that I truly love. I love watching things about history and the discussion of history. I hear d about this Hardcore History Podcast from Joe Rogan's podcast. So, I gave it a try and downloaded the Genghis Khan part 1. And, I loved it. Dan Carlin goes into great stories about certain points into history and it is fun to listen to these stories. He also goes into great detail about the Spanish-American War and the aftermath o the war. He goes into all the problems America got into with all the territories it receives after the war. There seems to be this newer liberal view of historical dictators that killed millions as cultural heroes, and Dan goes against this new view of these mass killers. People claim that Genghis Khan linked the west and east cultures together and that was his plan all along. This cultural bonding and mixing was only a byproduct and on the deaths of millions. I love Dan Carlin dispels ...

Wes Craven RIP From Time.com, ((The 76-year-old director passed away after a lengthy battle with brain cancer, according to The Hollywood Reporter. )) Was Craven was the king of horror, and I fondly remember a lot of his movies. I was never a huge fan of horror movies but a lot of Craven movies were very good. Some of his movies are still in my top 20-30 movies. I'm sadden to read he had brain cancer and lost the battle. Craven was the horror guy in the 80s, but he reinvented himself in the 90s with the Scream movies, which I highly beloved. He was a writer, director and producer. While I haven't seen everything he's directed, his stuff left a lasting impact on me and my pop culture knowledge.   A Nightmare on Elm Street : I love this movie and it is probably the scariest movie in the series. Freddy was still serious at this movie and not the pop cultural icon. What a great movie. New Nightmare : This movie was ahead of its time and the...

James Horner RIP From The Hollywood Reporter, (( James Horner , the consummate film composer known for his heart-tugging scores for Field of Dreams , Braveheart and Titanic , for which he won two Academy Awards, died Monday in a plane crash near Santa Barbara. He was 61. Horner was piloting a single-engine S312 Tucano turboprop plane when it crashed into a remote area about 60 miles north of Santa Barbara, officials said. )) I was in shock to hear he died and it happened in a plane crash. That's messed up. I know he hasn't been on my radar for a while, but he is a part of my pop culture history. Behind Williams and Goldsmith, there was Horner. Elfman sort of took his spot for a while though. But, Horner did some amazing things with music in the 80s. You knew his sound and his chords. As a child, I would sit through the end credits of Star Trek II and III that were on those old VHS tapes. Horner's music would be come out of that o...

I've spent probably a good ten years trying to get a book off the ground. I truly dreamed of having my name on the cover of an epic novel (in a series). A few years ago I came to the conclusion that wasn't going to happen. However, it still hurts that dream never came to be. So, it always bothers me that some “famous” people get book deals, but have never wrote or tried create a manuscript. Because these guys were famous, they would get great book deals. Due to the recent reveal in the news, guess who has a book, but is one of the worst people in the world? Jared from Subway... And, the name of this piece shit book is Jared, the Subway Guy: Winning Through Losing: 13 Lessons for Turning Your Life Around and it came out back in 2006. I guess it is more focus on the Losing portion now in his life. And from the Amazon page, ((Jared Fogel was, is, and will continue to be America's weight loss icon. As an obese college student in Indiana he lo...

So Hot, you hot Every time I see this commercial on at the Planet Fitness gym I laugh. I've probably see it a hundred times. They play it on the Planet Fitness channel. Here's the kicker, the version they play on their channel is edited. Because I love women, they edited out all the ass shots in the channel version, rhus making the channel version less offensive. So, every time you see their wonderful backsides, it is cut out of the broadcast versions. I can only hope most women locker rooms are like this. They sit in their underwear and comment how hot they are. One can dream. BYW, there are women that look like this in my gym, but I don't think they do this though. The woman in the yellow top is model Illya Biederman (Via youtube comments) . The blond is Amanda Landry .
