And I thought I was an Apple-obsessive. Dozens join contest to create iPod shuffles out of various food products.
Student arrested at Ann Coulter lecture at University of Austin. Coulter had reportedly just finished answering a question about gay marriage in which she had said she believes in the definition of marriage as between a man and a woman. The student asked, "so...what do you think about conservative men that all they do with their wives is fuck them in the ass?" He then made a masturbating motion as he walked back to his seat.
Madonna shows up at children's book signing for The Adventures of Abdi and finds a huge crowd of gay men and only one child.

What I want to know is why there were children under the age of ten listening to Ann Coulter. Isn't it embarassing for her to stand at the podium knowing that even the pre-adolescents in the room realize she is completely retarded?

i'm just getting sick of the pin-headed kids yelling out stupid shit at morons like Coulter (though i confess to having a not entirely healthy fascination with her; much like my undying obsession with courtney love). why can't they think of anything more clever, or provocative to say than what this guy said in austin? he's comparing 2 men in a loving relationship to a straight man more or less ass-raping his wife every night. it's offensive and stupid and impugns our arguments.
also, that's the university of texas at austin, not the university of austin. sorry for the nitpick, but austin's my town: i gotta represent.

Come on, everyone knows ALL KIDS LOVE POLITICS, even 10 year olds, and the best place to take them for a day out with the family is a Coulter lecture.

i don't see the difference between two men having anal sex and a man and a woman having anal sex. why is one "more or less ass-raping"? are you assuming the women can't enjoy it or that men and women can't have loving relationships? i'm confused.
there may be something stupid about interrupting a coulter q&a session with "lewdness," but it's not that the comparisons he made were baseless. personally, i thot it sounded like he was making a reverence to this story.

Why are so many gay men today so ready to attack and abandon Madonna?
I am amused and a little concerned by a request to boycott her.
To even suggest that people take such an extreme measure against an important figure of our 'gay culture' (like it or not) makes me cringe. I cannot help but think of how many times I have gotten upset because people assume that all gay men are obsessed with youth and trends… and now I read this.
I guess the reasoning behind the boycott would be that Madonna is over 40 and you know how terrible that is, also she dared trying new things that don’t involve Tina, to make matters worse she doesn’t have a collaboration with Scissors Sisters in a new dance mix, and forgot to star in MTV’s House of Wax. Sad.
Also interesting, the petitioner of an act that would require a significant effort admits that he/she "cant be arsed to look up the correct spelling" of a word and refers to gay men as "queenies." I wonder who or what is next on hers/his list. Should Cher or Barbra be worried?

Well said Remi, I think the language, grammar, slang iterated by 'Papa' speaks volumes os the source.

mark baby, you dont know shit about me. and regarding my grammer and language.. not everyone can be born an american like you, huh ?

Ann Coulter thinks marriage should be between a man and a woman, and she's defined as the devil incarnate.
John Kerry thinks marriage should be between a man and a woman, and he's the best candidate on the ticket.
I don't get it.
