Toss this cookie!

Is it me or does this cookie look like a vagina?

Ok, so I recently won a free dozen homemade cookies from our friends at the Casa Highland blog. It's about time my mad googling skills paid off. So, I was asked to let Casa Highland know what kind of cookies I want. Hmm...this of course lent itself to more googling. Where I discovered, the Worlds Filthiest Cookie(not to be confused with the worlds stinkiest cactus - that goes out to you Tremblay.) Apparently, this nortorious cookie was eaten by Chris Rock and Marilyn Manson on the Graham Norton Effect, but couldn't be shown on tv.

I may just settle for chocolate chip.

I'm Back...with Mixed Emotions


First things first...I would like to echo my foundation compatriot in honoring the passing of the fine actor Paul Gleason. He is a major factor in two of my all time favorite movies. One as Duffless so thoughtfully recounted in her earlier post was The Breakfast Club...

The other, is a much different film but nonetheless a shining moment for Mr. Gleason. The movie...Die Hard. Paul Gleason's role was small, in comparison to the other roles in the film, but he was still an integral part of the film, bringing both comedy and drama...Intensity and Frivolity.

He played the role of Deputy Chief of Police Dwayne T. Robinson. The sometimes bumbling man in charge at the scene at the hostage situation at Nakatomi Plaza. Dwayne was definitely not the most popular member of the LAPD that night, in fact, he made many more mistakes than he made sucesses.




My favorite scene involving Mr. Gleason is really every time that he introduces himself in the movie...which is really like 4 or 5 different times during the movie. Just the way he'd say "This is Deputy Chief of Police Dwayne T. Robinson", really just made me melt. Anyway, We'll miss you Paul, but If I was at the Oscars next year, I'd clap it out for you when you appear in the Parade of Dead stars.

Ok, a bit of an explanation of my absence. I had computer issues again. I've been very active in trying to get more technologically savvy...So I bought myself an Ipod. An Ipod Nano to be more specific. It's so awesome! The problem was my computer was ill prepared to accept the awesomeness of myself and an Ipod together. So it broke.

I was finally able to get it to the point that I could get it to work, or more specifically, my friend the IT guy got it to work, I just supplied the PBR. Anyway, in between the time I got the Ipod, and go tthe computer fixed, I bought a laptop. This laptop is the single greatest thing that's happened to me since I lost my virginity. I think so at least, as I was kinda drunk. Both when I got my laptop, and lost my virginity.

I digress. Now that I have the laptop, I can't believe it took me so long! If someone had just told me that I could search for pOrn, play poker and download music all while taking a shit, I would have bought this thing long ago!

That being said, I'm back, and I have no excuse as to why it will take me 20 something days to post something again, in fact I have another post in mind for tonight, but I'll hold off on it, in order to give Paul Gleason the respect he deserves.

Good Night Deputy Chief Of Police Dwayne T. Robinson.

Good Night Mr. Dick Vernon



Anyway,

Monday, May 29, 2006

Now thats it! I'm gonna be right outside those doors. Next time I have to come in here, I'm crackin' skulls.


Rest in Peace Principal Veron. Paul Gleason, another great character actor taken too soon.

I remember clearly the day that I realized I was getting old. I saw the Breakfast Club 2 or 3 years ago and actually started to feel for the principal and what he was trying to do. It was then I knew I was old. When I was a kid, I wanted to be in the Breakfast club, they were so cool - - and now I relate more to Dick. How the tide has turned.

Here is the Duffless Foundation Tribute:

Richard Vernon: What if your home... what if your family... what if your *dope* was on fire?
John Bender: Impossible, sir. It's in Johnson's underwear.

Richard Vernon: [Andrew laughs at Bender's backtalk] You think he's funny? You think this is cute? You think he's "bitchin," is that it? Let me tell you something. Look at him - he's a bum! You want to see something funny? You go visit John Bender in five years. You'll see how goddamned funny he is!

Richard Vernon: You think about this: when you get old, these kids - when *I* get old - they're going to be running the country.
Carl: Yeah.
Richard Vernon: Now this is the thought that wakes me up in the middle of the night. That when I get older, these kids are going to take care of me.
Carl: I wouldn't count on it

Richard Vernon: You ought to spend a little more time trying to do something with yourself and a little less time trying to impress people.

Richard Vernon: What was that ruckus?
Andrew Clark: Uh, what ruckus?
Richard Vernon: I was just in my office and I heard a ruckus.
Brian Johnson: Could you describe the ruckus, sir?

Richard Vernon: Don't mess with the bull, young man. You'll get the horns.

We've got motherfucking snakes!


As you may be aware it is 2$ Beer Summer - - and one of the official activities of this summer is Snakes on a Plane. Save the date, August 18th! 2$ Beer Summer field trip to see Snakes on a Plane -

Location: Boston Common Theater
Time: TBD - Evening
Required Pre-game : many many 2$ beers at The Tam
Sam Jackson Impersonations: unlimited

Facts about Snakes on a Plane:
1.) There are snakes, and they are on a plane.

2.) Sam Jackson only signed on for this film because of the title. It was later changed to "Pacific Air Flight 121", but Jackson demanded they reverse the change. "We're totally changing that back. That's the only reason I took the job: I read the title."(imdb)

3.) In March 2006 New Line Cinema, due to massive fan interest on the Internet, allowed for a 5 day reshoot to film new scenes to take the movie from PG-13 to a R-rated film (originally the film wrapped principal photography in September 2005). Among these additions is the Jackson character's line, "I want these motherfucking snakes off this motherfucking plane," a line that originated in an anticipatory internet parody of the movie

Firecrotch! Firecrotch! Firecrotch!

Ok, so there is this mega rich douchebag named Brandon something who hangs around with Paris Hilton - he got loaded and was "interview" by TMZ where he shared his drunken thoughts about Lindsey Lohan and her flaming red, freckle shooting v-jay. While, this dude is without question the biggest douchebag in the universe, I have to give him a mini golf clap for 1.) His dedication to 200$ Beer Summer and 2.) Firecrotch! Not since the Ginger kids episode of South Park have I seen such red pube bashing.

On a side note: I've been trying, with varying degrees of success, to lauch "Slam Pig" in 2006 - perhaps if my father were an oil magnate I'd have more success.

From Gawker or Defamer, I can't remember which:

The little war between Paris Hilton and Lindsay Lohan has a whole new front: Brandon Davis, the oil scion best known for boozing his way to the top of Los Angeles’ tower of celebutwat nightlife. The omnipresent cultural pornographers at TMZ have released a video shot last night, featuring Paris Hilton and Davis — who’s so drunk as to sport some impressive facial bloat. Always a gentleman, Davis defends his lady friend, ranting about Lohan for an impressive three-and-a-half minutes before throwing the ultimate gauntlet (as transcribed by our brother Defamer): “Lindsay Lohan is a firecrotch, she has freckles coming out of her vagina, and her clitoris is seven feet long.” Well, now you know.
For quick reference, we’ve put together a handy rundown of Davis’ important stats from the video:
• Usage of “fuck” (including “fucking”): 10
• References to Lohan’s freckles: 3
• References to Lohan’s genitalia (including her “pussy,” “skanky pussy,” and “7-ft long clit”): 5
• References to the orange/red color of Lohan’s pubic hair: 4
• Number of times Davis utters “firecrotch”: 10
• Unflattering references to Lohan’s attractiveness as compared to that of her incarcerated father: 1

Beautiful Weirdos

At the Foundation we try to understand and celebrate all things pop culture. Sometimes, just sometimes, we run a foul of something we just can't categorize. I had just such an experience today in the middle of Davis Square on my way home from work. Who are these beautiful weirdos? What are they doing, and why? I ask you loyal readers to come to my aid, what is going on here?. Are they simply celebrating 2$ Beer Summer? Is this what happens to those kids in high school who quote Monty Python just a "little" too much? Is this a mating ritual, God help me, are these people couples, yet I am still single? Help me explain these creatures!

Here is what I know: They appeared tonight at 7pm, they are multi generational and co-ed,they dance to the phat beats of their a accordian and recorder players. The men and women do not mingle while dancing, but both wave white scarves and jingle jangle when they dance.

The men wear:

  • Clockwork Orange type white clothes
  • blue suspenders
  • red and blue ribbons on their nipplish areas
  • sleigh bells around their shins
  • red baseball hats, black shoes and blue neckerchiefs

The women wear:
  • white pants and shirts, but they rock blue vests
  • yellow and blue arm ribbons
  • sleigh bells on their shins and black shoes
I decree a challenge. The first person who can explain to me who these people are will win a 2$ beer. However, the the funniest explanation wins, TWO, that's right, TWO 2$ Beers, courtesy of the Duffless Foundation!

T & A

My foundation partner in crime Duffless called me out for using T & A to get comments on this blog...

I do not even want to give that accusation the time of day! Is it my fault that the first picture on GIS that I could find of the lovely Ms. Amanda Peterson was one of her in a lovely bikini? I think not.

But now I will gladly flaunt the T & A.

In Fugitive's first ever Girls of the 80's Extravaganza!

In addition to the previously mentioned beauties Ms. Peterson and Ms. Heyser I would like to add:

Phoebe Cates

Easily one of the greatest scenes of all time. Definitely the greates scene that included Judge Reinhold whackin' his bag.



Kelly LeBrock

I know that she has become very "bloated" in the past few years...and she was tainted by having sex with Steven Seagal...But you can't say you didn't wish you were in the shower with her in Weird Science

I know these next two pictures aren't all that sexy...but they are two of my favorite girls of the 80's

Diane Franklin

Go that way...really fast. If anything gets in your way...turn.




Kerri Green

Andi You GOONIE!!!!


There are plenty more, but here is the first wave...Hot chicks from the 80's....more to come.

Would You Like To Go To Prom With Me?



I'm not afraid to let people know about my love for teenage romantic comedies. If they are Shakespearian works translated into Teen Pop culture even better. I'll stand by the fact that 10 Things I Hate About You is one of the finest films made during my lifetime. I'll say that Mellissa Joan Hart was robbed of an oscar nod for her role in Drives Me Crazy. Going back to my youth, I'll rabidly debate that Amanda Peterson (Cindy Mancini) from Can't Buy Me Love was at one point the hottest chick in the world (growing up in Billerica with nothing but cable to keep you company doesn't give you a very big sampling to take from).

There are a couple of things that movies like this have in common. Generally, one of the leads (the popular one) falls for the other lead (the unpopular one) or vice versa...Although one of the two parties doesn't realize that they should be together. Then invariably something happens to piss the other one off, then it takes a some kind of epiphany and they realize they should be together and then they get back together.

Another common theme in these kinds of movies I was reminded of tonight when watching "How I Met Your Mother" which I'll say again is the best new tv show on the air. I grew up in the northeast...maybe this has something to do with it, but I always get annoyed when I watch these movies, and the characters call the big dance you go to at the end of your senior year "Prom" and not "The Prom" . I always thought you asked a girl to go to "the Prom" with you not ask a girl to go to "Prom" with you.

Maybe this is a california thing. And since there aren't a hell of a lot of movie studios based in Wilmington Massachusetts the California dialect wins out. I'm not upset by this if this is the case...I would just like to be educated. I've never been outside of New England for more than like a week and a half at a time...so I'm ready to believe anything, it just always sounds weird to me...I can overlook this weird way of speaking as long as the weird art girl can win over the football captain, and he'll get drunk and make out with his ex girlfriend, and the art girl who now looks like a pop star will get pissed, but then he'll do something to get her back, like Sing an embarrassing song during band practice, or get her favorite band to play at "The Prom"
