This is Why it Pays to Know a Little Something About Pop Culture

And by a little something, I mean the bare minimum.  "Why?" you ask.  The answer is simple.  So that you can avoid falling for pranks like this.

I suppose it would also allow you to pull a prank like this...but only on those with minimal defenses.

Seriously, this is awesome.

And how can you not know Bruce Wayne or Gotham City...seriously...

Although I would like to point out Wayne is a billionaire, not a millionaire...

See, this prank wouldn't work on me...

I'm going to go start disk 3 of season one of BTAS now...because I finished disk 2 (again) this morning...

And Now, A Word From the Captain...

And to show our appreciation...

Remember kids...if it moves, shoot it.  Unless it's the Captain.

Spider-Man: Turn off the Dark Comes Out Today...Save Your Money, Watch This Instead

I haven't been covering it, but it isn't exactly a secret that the Spider-Man Broadway musical Turn off the Dark has been something of a comedy of errors over the last few years...long story short, the new and "improved" version (certainly new, don't know about improved) version comes out today, minus Julie Taymor.

I am a huge Spider-Man fan and even went as the web-slinger for Halloween once...and I don't mind me a good Broadway musical.  That being said, I don't think this is going to be a good Broadway musical, or even an okay one...

So I propose you watch this instead.  It accurately sums up the Spidey musical and you get to watch muppets...what more could you want?

No Seriously, Shut Up!

There are a lot of dumb reasons to get arrested but today I think I read about one that has to be near the top of the list.  Lakeysha Beard, was arrested last week for talking on her phone in an Amtrak quiet car.  Talking on your phone on the train may not seem like much, but here's the thing, it was during her trip from Oakland, CA to Salem, OR, and when I say during her trip, I mean the ENTIRE trip, all 16 hours of it.  That's right, this woman spoke on her phone, nonstop, for 16 straight hours.  You can read about it in the Village Voice here.  I'd also like to mention I agree with Jen Doll (real name?) the author of the article when she says if it had been on the east coast we would have put an end to it after 5 minutes...just saying...

Maybe This is Old But it's Noob to Me

I don't know how old this is, but it made me laugh out loud.
