Current Events & Annoyances... 10/10/10

Alright people, time to get a few things out that have been wicked bugging me this past week. We can call them today's RADs but they should really be my RAWs (Random Annoyances of the Week)

Lets begin shall we?

For starters, facebook has gotten to a point of complete and total creepiness splashed with a bit of lame. The girls are straight slutty, the guys either don't post a thing, or post their every feeling, and the amount of CREEPERS that friend request me has gotten completely ridic in the last few months. Then, there are the guys who you are not sure if they are gay or straight because they act like girls on facebook 24/7 with the emo statuses and shit. I put up lyrics every few days and then change them for the most part incase something exciting happens then I'll post details. Too many times did someone say to me "Oh I knew you were there, I saw it on facebook." Oh hell no, no more creepers allowed. I can see randomly catching up with someone you haven't spoken to in awhile, that was the point of why facebook was made, but poking and messaging and creeping on random people? Ugh. The deactivate button is becoming increasingly more tempting.

Drunk friends are also becoming an extreme annoyance of mine. Like really, (and no lie, this is no one specific, this truly is worldy advice) I'm so sick of watching people get sloshed at a party or the bar and drive themselves and their friends home. I was almost killed by a drunk driver in 2008 and it was my "best friend" at the time. I do not understand how it is worth it for you guys to go out and get blackout drunk, do a bunch of drugs, and then drive home. I see it all the time, every weekend and it's not even just certain people who are regular boozebags, its like an epidemic around here now. I had to learn the hard way and got lucky nothing happened, my fear is that someone else will learn the hard way and not be so lucky. My advice to these people? Quit drinking and grow the fuck up before its too late, this is Boston, not New Jersey.

Now onto other news & updates.

She is "Done Snookin" For Now

I regret to inform you that Snookin for Love is no longer going to happen. Whoever reported it from InTouch Weekly not so long ago is probably fired by now. I realized that I had misinformed you all when I saw Snooks herself tweet this little gem earlier today:

"Let's clear this up kids, I did not get my own dating show. And plus, I gotta man, I don't need anybody else :)"

That is all well and good Nicole, but chances are this dude will be gone within a month and then you will need your own dating show anyways, so you might as well save yourself some time, dump the chump and do it for the $$$$!!

moving on...

DWTS Update

Who Got the Boot?

She did. Margaret Cho and her partner, Louie Van Amstel were the 3rd couple to be eliminated from the competition on DWTS this past Tuesday. Since the Patriots played on Monday night, DWTS wasn't aired on the East coast until 1:35 in the morning (that was lame btw.) My insomnia made me stay up to watch it, but again, I wasn't very impressed. Yet I still watch it every week just to see if I will be inspired! There are a few good dancers as far as celebs go, but most of them suck. Especially The Situation...

Speaking of situations...

Mike "Sitch" has definitely found himself in a public pickle! Not sure about the rest of you, but I think he has been acting like a complete choad on the last few episodes of JS. He even went so far as to slap Snooks in the mouth for no reason because he wanted to go home. Now this is the same girl that got punched (like seriously decked) in the mouth by a dude on season 1 of Jersey Shore because Sitch kept feeding the dude and his friends shots of free booze. Not only that, but Sitch is just proving to the world how big of a creep he is. I get that you make a lot of money and all this shit dude, but act like a human being, not a one man STD factory. Hmmm... I wonder since they make him look like such a dick on Jersey Shore if that actually gets him voted off DWTS considering he is TERRIBLE anyways. Oh wait, no it wont. They need the ratings.

anyways...

Aside from the fact that Amber Portwood from MTVs Teen Mom is still being investigated for that crazy scene from a few weeks back in which she beat the shit out of got into a physical altercation with her linebacker boyfriend, Gary, I also read headlines this week about that guy Chris she went out on a date with on the show. Apparently he was a registered sex offender in the state of Indiana. BUT DON'T WORRY BECAUSE SUPPOSEDLY IT WASN'T THE SAME GUY?! The real sex offenders most recent exgirlfriend went to all the tabloids and told them all that it was not her ex man on that show and it must be someone else with the same name. She mentioned a difference in the tattoos on the arm, and she also said that her registered sex offender ex-man was home with her kids when the show was being filmed, so it can't be him. What a great trade-off?

Sidenotes:

The Challenge has returned to MTV and I am once again NOT impressed. No Wes. No Kenny. No Evan. Plus, now I have to look at Melinda (Real World: Austin) who also happens to be my neighbor Danny Jamieson's soon to be ex wife. They met on the show, got married and now are in divorce proceedings if they haven't been finished already. So basically... the show is pretty lame. Granted, this challenge DOES look more gruesome than the other ones. Granted, I am excited that CT comes back and hopefully, this will be a somewhat decent season. We'll see, I'll keep you posted..

Nice bow tie Shamroq

The Celtics have started their preseason off with a bang remaining undefeated so far in 3 out of the 8 preseason games. The starting unit looks good and I personally kind of love that Shaq is on our side now. I feel as though its better for other point guards to be running into the Wall of Steel instead of Rondo running into him. The BBM aka the Boston Bench Mob has proved that they can hold down the floor and finish out games strong. I love the solid contributions from almost every player and to all the people looking at Miami and LA to 3peat and all that shit. I have 8 simple words for you: Watch the fuck out. They're coming for you.

until next time.. xo

Current Events 10/2/10

October is my favorite month of the year, so much that I wish my birthday was in October instead of June. Really, its awesome. Why? Two reasons. One is the weather, its perfect minus any rain for campfires and tailgating and hoodies and Halloween! The other reason is the start of the NBA season comes every October.  It's like an added bonus.

Anyways, onto today's "points of interest"...

NCIS Star &loveofmylife Michael Weatherly 

Causes a FenderBender!

Michael Weatherly, who plays very Special Agent Anthony Dinozzo on the hit CBS crime drama NCIS, had himself a blonde moment yesterday when he crashed his black Mercedes into a Silver BMW. The BMW went into a pole crunching the entire front of the vehicle while Weatherly's Mercedes suffered major damage to the front passenger side. He was driving over the Barnham Pass which connects Hollywood to the San Fernando Valley when the two lanes merged and according to the BMW driver, he was crashed into and his Beamer ran into a pole. No injuries were sustained to either driver and the ambulance that arrived on the scene left with no one extra inside. The drivers exchanged information and everything went as smooth as a car accident with two wicked expensive cars can get. Good one DiNozzo Michael, Mark Harmon should pull a Gibbs and slap you for that one later!

Mario Arrested for Beating Up His MOM!

Mean muggin in his mugshot

Well Chris Brown, you've almost been out done on the deuschbag scoreboard. Singer/Actor/Hasbeen Mario was arrested yesterday for allegedly going on a rampage and beating up his crackhead mother, Shawntia Hardaway. The 24 year old was released on $50K bond after an altercation with his momma at their Baltimore, MD apartment. According to his mom, he went on a rampage and started breaking things and pushing her around. When the cops showed up they found evidence of her claim by finding he had broken mirrors, busted a china cabinet and put holes in the doors. She also claimed a week prior he had pushed her "eight feet into a living room wall, where [she] hit her head on the wall." If you don't remember back in 2007, Mario, a former DWTS contestant, had MTV follow him around with cameras where he staged an intervention and spotlighted his mothers' heroin addiction. The documentary show titled, "I Won't Love You To Death" played back in October 2007, and followed his journey of trying to convince his mom to get clean. He told her that he "wanted to give her the gift of life, just like [she] gave [him]."

Sad. I know how annoying addicts can be to live with, but violence is never the answer!

Moving on again...

Where Oh Where is Billy Ray Cyrus?

WHEN YOU NEED HIM? Take a look at what your 17 year old is up to these days dude! She looks a tid bit drugged up and what the hell kind of outfit is that to go clubbing in? This picture was taken outside of Voyeur nightclub in Los Angeles and I couldn't help but comment on it. Why does she look so whapped out? Also, WHAT THE HELL IS SHE DOING IN A CLUB? I know they forget the 21 plus rule, but really, she is 17 years old! You still have jurisdiction Billy Ray! Don't let her turn into Lindsay Lohan! At this point they are going down the same path, and I had high hopes for this one. Her dad just broke my achey breakey heart by not putting his foot up her ass! 

and now exciting news for any dating show fans...

Snookin For Love is Coming 

to a TV Near You!

I have to say... I'm excited. No confirmation on if it will be called "Snookin for Love" but I can't think of anything better. InTouch Weekly reports that Nicole "Snooki" Polizzi, princess of the Jersey Shore and the one that seems to be most unlucky in love will finally have her own reality dating show. I can only imagine how hilarious it will be to people who appreciate her sense of humor. Some of her toolbag exboyfriend's, as well as Jenni "JWoww" Farley will  make guest appearences and try to help her in her search for the perfect tan, guido, nympho, juicehead. Sources report one of her exes will be trying to win her back while the other tries to help her find love. Good luck Snooks! MTV has not confirmed nor denied the reports of the show, but sources have said they will be making a big announcement soon. Let the Snookin for Love begin!

Onto a bit of a more serious topic,

Hitting Closer to Home:

Saugus HS Student Commits Suicide

As previously reported, a recent string of publicized suicides by youth in the US (either gay or straight) has continued to be a problem that can no longer be brushed under the rug. Felix Sacco, 17, of Saugus, MA took his own life on Wednesday by jumping off the overpass of the Lynn Fellsway and onto the southbound lane of Route 1 at about 9AM Wednesday morning. He survived the fall and was transported to Mass General where he later died of his injuries. The Saugus HS community is shocked that it happened, claiming that he was a laid back kid who played guitar and kept to himself. This epidemic is everywhere, not only have we seen teased children struggling with their sexuality being pushed to their limit, but even a quiet, shy kid who likes to play the guitar and has no reason to die. We have to enforce to the children that this is no way to solve your problems. If we don't teach them at a young age and change their perception, they will only continue to mimic what they see. This has to change. A genuine act of peace in the world where there are no haters may be impossible yes, but at least we can try to keep it peaceful and hopefully recognize the signs of depression that could lead to young suicides. Please remember that no loss of life is acceptable when it is unnecessary. We must be more accepting of others or we won't survive. We don't have to like eachother, but we at least have try to bring the world to such a non threatening place to live in.

Sidenotes for 10/2

Here's an idea for the day, why can't MTV bring the challenge days like the ones you see on the show "If You Really Knew Me" to junior high and elementary schools across the country? Why can't that sense of understanding each other be taught in schools? It doesn't need a camera crew, we just need adults willing to organize and carry out with the challenge day and make an effort to have these kids understand eachother. This can be geared towards the age groups accordingly also, as I don't see most 8 year olds having the same problems as high school kids, but the concepts are the same. Come on people, lets change the world.

I am also now starting a...

Countdown to Harry Potter 7!

Being the HP Geek I am, I will inform you all of when the first of the two part 7th installment of the Harry Potter series comes out. I'll tell you how it was, why you should see it, so on and so forth. Those books were amazing for my childhood, the imagination of it all is amazing. My kids will read them whether they like it or not! More on the Harry Potter series in future posts.

anyways off to enjoy my Saturday, until next time xo

Current Events & My Advice to the World... 9/30/10

My Advice to the World

Okay people, lets get a few things straight here. If we can't all learn to accept that we as people are individuals, we will not make it. Everyone does not have to perfect, we all got problems. But there are a few topics tonight that bugged me enough that I feel they need to be brought up, because we, as a human race, need to stop being so god damn judgmental, and focus on the bigger picture. How will the world survive if we don't learn to live peacefully. & on the topic of living peacefully, I am sick! SICK! Of hearing about teens and children committing suicide. I am sick of hearing about domestic violence. I am sick of hearing about shooting and murders and rapes. But as I once blogged before, Jon Stewart says it best: "the problem is crazy, and you can't legislate crazy." Couldn't agree more my friend, but here's my problem with it. I think we can in fact, change that! But it has to start NOW. Do you have kids in your family? If you're reading this right now and you do I can imagine you are thinking about a little boy or a little girl close to you. A sibling, a nephew, a niece, a daughter, a son. Do you want them to grow up in a society like this? School shootings, kids committing suicide over bullying, 11 year old little boys getting his arm broken at school because he wanted to be a cheerleader, college students getting raped just by walking across campus? When does it end? When we all just cancel each other out? I need to start a movement. All you have to do to be apart of this movement, is start to respect people. Ask a kid how their day was at school, see if they are being bullied, and the chances are if they say yes, they want advice on how to handle it. There has been 5 deaths among gay youth in the US in the last 3 weeks. Three of those deaths occurred this week alone. That is disgusting. Horrific. I have 6 nephews, and honestly, I never want ANY of them to feel like they have to resort to suicide. But it happens, it goes unnoticed and not spoken of, and that needs to change. These kids are the future, just as once was said about you. I don't know about the rest of you, but I want the future to get better and not continue down this destructive path.


moving onto tonights topics, which still 
stem back to my advice to the world...

Domestic Violence On Teen Mom

If you watched Tuesday nights new episode of Teen Mom, Amber crazybitch Portwood from Anderson, Indiana is now being investigated for the violent attack that aired on Tuesday nights show, on her "fiance" Gary Shirley. Honestly, home girl went OFF on him. I'm very surprised and shocked that he did not flinch to even physically hit her back, even though she tried pushing him down stairs and punched, kicked and slapped him forcefully, even in front of their 2 year old daughter Leah, who was playing at their feet. Domestic violence can come in any form, clearly even though he's a football lineman Gary could have taken Amber down, but he chose to remain calm and take the beating and refrain from trouble. This is unnacceptable to do in front of a child, I don't care if your her damn mother Amber, you're fucking nuts. Here's my thoughts on why: Amber is definitely hooked on her prescription medication called clonazepam, commonly known in the streets as kpins. They were prescribed to her in the first season, and you can just tell shes whapped out 90% of the time shes on screen. She mentions in a behind the scenes video on MTV that she was blacked out and didn't remember anything. Hmm? Wonder why. Too many milligrams honey. Anyways, Gary took Leah and left, threatened to call CPS. Heres the funny part, somebody else already did. Two anonymous emails send to Anderson Police Department urged detectives to investigate the abuse and if the child was safe in the home. Click here to read the article about her investigation. So basically, Amber is fucked in a whole new mess of drama. Hope she doesn't crack the pill bottle open and pull a Lindsay Lohan in court! Good luck crazybitch!

onto other things that need to be brought up...

The Rash of Recent Suicides Among the Gay Youth in This Country.

Listen people, I gotta be honest here, its really has made me sick to my stomach to see these kids killing themselves over things that they don't even understand. Please read the Perez Hilton article about the most recent suicide, the 5th in three weeks, 3 of them this week alone. These are only the kids that we know of, I can only imagine how many young suicide victims made the same decision. Ugh I'm going to be sick at the thought. The latest was a 19 year old sophomore who goes to my old school and the school my 18 year old nephew attends, Johnson and Wales University in Providence, RI. He hung himself in his dorm room after repeatedly being teased about his sexuality. That scares the shit out of me, that my nephew is living in the same dorm with people who can bully someone enough to the point of no return. An alarming four other kids have also committed suicide around the US. One of the suicides catching national attention is about Tyler Clementi who attended Rutgers University, he was publicly humliated for being gay at his school when his room mate and "so called friend" videotaped him having sexual relations and thought it would be funny to web cast it over the internet. The bastards even attempted to do it a second time. Disgusting. WHEN THE FUCK WILL YOU PEOPLE LEARN? How is that in any way funny? Your words can push people over the edge, as well as your actions against them. Understand words hurt deeper than you can imagine, if you are a victim of verbal abuse, which many of us are, you should understand. In the words of Eminem, "you know WORDS are a motherfucker, they can be GREAT, or they can DEGRATE, or even worse, THEY CAN TEACH HATE." Come on people, use your words wisely. In other words, smarten the fuck up.

Okay, onto the fun stuff...

DRAMA ON Dancing With The Stars!

Michael Bolton was the next casualty after the Hoff on Tuesdays nights results show, however on Monday nights show, Judge Bruno Tonioli publicly humiliated harshly criticized Bolton's attempt at a jive. He told him it was the "worst jive in 11 seasons" and that he should have "taken your bone and gone back into the dog house" adding to both Michael and his partner, Chelsie Hightower, "you did it all very, very badly." That's horrible Bruno! You are no Simon Cowell! Prick!  So basically all the other contestants did well, and again it came down to Sitch vs. whoever goes home at the end. Well for the sake of ratings, guess who won't be going home every time that happens. The man, the myth, the walking venereal disease, The Situation. New performances on Monday, I'll keep ya posted!

Speaking of The Situation...

Jersey Shore's new episode was on tonight.

FIGHT NIGHT AT THE SHORE HOUSE

NOT

I gotta say, they just don't impress me with their fight nights. They build you up just to let you down! Again. I really wanted Snooki and Angelina to fight hardcore, like shot for shot. They yank out hair extensions and kick around like my dog does when you rub her tummy. Pathetic MTV, pathetic. Anyways, so basically, you all don't have to worry, the bitch is gone, she left the show again. For those of you who don't know they already replaced her in Season 3 which recently wrapped filming in Seaside Heights, NJ. The newest addition is that of Snooks longtime friend, Deena Nicole Cortese. Good luck to you honey, don't talk shit, leave your pads out, act like a dirty little hampster, or smush Vinny, and you'll be all good!

twitpic of the day via Nate Robinson.

Nate the team clown is pulling too many pranks on Shaq. But they're hilarious so its funny. Good news is they are having an amazing training camp, and this is going to be an amazing season.

Check out the Twitvideo of Nate putting salt in Shaq's drink and giving it to him. Funny shit, I love those boys. Also, Kevin Garnett is in awesome condition, strong, confident that his leg won't give out on him, and he's ready. In the words of Doc Rivers he is "explosive" again, and that makes the Boston Celtics a dangerous team. 26 Days til the home opener! LOVING ITTTT!
