The Austrian paid several thousands Euros, but planned to abandon transactions over growing suspicions that the Slovenian had lied to him about his wife’s sickness. The Roman Catholic friar, 33, informed police after the man threatened to make his sexual orientation and their affair public."

  1. gotta love Nelsan Ellis

    discussing marriage equality in "Vibe" seems like a pretty positive thing... not sure if that magazine has touched on it in an interview before

  2. WAIT! you missed the important part -

    Ryanair is also charging €1 ($1.25) to take a leak!

    can't they just let you p** out the window?

  3. I hope Mel Gibson never works again, but unfortunately that won't happen.

    I guess PETA does some OK work after all.

  5. From the Nelsan Ellis interview:

    Q: How annoyed do you get when people can’t differentiate between Nelsan and Lafayette?

    A: It annoys me when the industry people are like that but I can’t just get upset with regular folk because all they see is the character. But when the industry can’t tell the difference, I’m like, “Damn that’s a little closed minded,” because when white people play a character people expect it to be a character. But black people—we can’t just be character actors, we have to [really] be the things we’re hired for, which is what offends me. I don’t answer that question, “Are you gay or not,” when it comes down to industry people. But if it’s a regular person asking me, that just says that maybe I’m doing a good job. But when a casting director or an agent asks me that question it takes on a deeper thing that says, “I can’t believe you’re doing this unless you are that.”

    PREACH IT, BROTHER!!

  6. It's great to get gay news out of Austria -- even of this negative kind. Ironically, the German word for "john" as in the "john" who hires hustlers is Freier which is pronounced as Friar in English.

    Keep up the good reporting.

  7. true blood? Goddamn...that and stephanie meyers...anyone can write that stuff...anyone. christ, even stephen king has criticized stephanie "mormon" meyers as lacking an ability to write. Stephen King! Easy, formulaic quasi erotica bullshit that got off the ground with that hack shit writer anne rice. Stuff that'd make even jim thompson cringe with disgust. But, as damien hirst responded to a critic who rightly said that anyone can do what he's done..."but I did it"...conceding the truth of his critique.

  8. @ Tank:

    Would you shut the hell up already? Your comments are as predictable as night following day.

    You should just replace the body of all future posts with this text:

    "blah blah blah bitch, complain, moan, blah blah blah jealous rant, blah blah blah superior bullshit blah blah blah I have nothing to do but attempt to start flamewars all day every day blah blah fucking blah"

    Nobody (including you, no doubt) will be able to tell the difference and it will save you a lot of trouble. You just have to copy and paste!

  9. @bcarter3

    Click on the "porn face" link; you'll see two pictures, one of Tiger Woods and one of Sarah Palin. Click on the pictures to enlarge them, and then you can see what the joke is (though at that point, it's NSFW). Clue: look at what the pictures are made out of. It's much more obvious on the Tiger Woods pic.

  10. I don't know why Mel Gibson wasn't completely ostracized by everybody, forever, *before* this alleged set of statements. He is a horrible homophobe for one.

    Let's remind everybody, especially conservative Christians like Mr. Gibson, that this is the man who made "The Passion of the Christ."

    Posted by: north blvd | Jul 2, 2010 8:47:31 PM


  11. The Sarah Palin porn face should have a (nsfw) warning after it... the Tiger Woods picture it links to is very graphic - while the link that doesn't really need a (nsfw) - the people who are naked for PETA - is barely nsfw.

    Not that I care personally. At my office, any site that doesn't have anything to do with work is nsfw. I had a threatening talk from two of my bosses for them seeing I had a gmail window open at one point. =/

  12. LOL@daniel. Now that's entertainment! blah blah blah blah! LMAO! *Exhale* Feel that? Do you feel it, daniel? DO YOU FUCKING FEEL IT?! I'm better than you...and I feel it. But it's a non-victory, isn't it? Like winning a drinking game in your early to mid-twenties...

    Posted by: TANK | Jul 2, 2010 9:54:58 PM


  13. But I can't hate you too much, daniel. You are, after all, offering a critique. And that's--in the inimitable words of martha-- a good thing. I can still hate you.

    Posted by: TANK | Jul 2, 2010 9:57:17 PM


  14. As night following day? No...no...that won't do. You want "the tides". As predictable as the tides. That's at least a flirtation with great writing.

    Posted by: TANK | Jul 2, 2010 10:00:43 PM


  15. @J.D. The word "porn" I think, should have been clue enough that it is nsfw. Common sense, mate.

  16. @tank, What's pathetic Tank, is that at 10:00pm on a Fri. nite of a holiday weekend you're in the basement of your mothers house or some dingy studio apartment pathetically venting your hostilities on some obscure blog. Does anyone care that you even exist? Think Edvard Munch's "The Scream" and just jump...

  18. Ha, Ha, Ha, Andrew Cuomo...

    Andrew Cuomo only wags a gay tail when he marches in the gay parade, it's only a costume, and when the parade is over he takes it off. And, then he gets back to his business of doing nothing for New York State.

    Everybody wants, there are a lot of wanters in New York, I want, I want, I want. All these organizations are killing the life of America.

    Gay's Wave the Rainbow Flag in the wind...

    Wear your rainbows around your necks, but don't choke straight people with them.

    Be who you are, be proud, come out of the closet, quietly, and introduce yourselves to us, but, don't stick your tongue down our throats. We have values too.

    Gay marriage means what? What does gay marriage mean to you?

    Did you know that not all gays believe in gay marriage?

    How high would the divorce rate be? Cat Fights!!!

    I found out yesterday that there are different types of gays, you have your trashy gays, perverted gays, conservative gays, high class gays, professional gays, educated gays, funny gays, and then you have men who like to dress up like women, but they're not really gay.

    This is very important information that straight people should know about the gay community.

    Knowledge is Power - educate the public that not all gays are trash.

    We have a few friends that are gay, and they are some of the nicest professional people we know, respectful too.

    The trashy gays and transvestites are creepy and they make straights loathe gays.

  19. Fortunately Mel Gibson's last film (his first as an actor in 8 years) was not only a quality disaster it was a box office flop. Maybe people are finally waking up the the REAL Mel Gibson and have decided to no longer reward his intolerance, hatred and bigotry. Boy Australia must be so proud of their native son. What a piece of crap.

  20. Someone's trying to incorporate what they just learned in intro to art history into an insult. What's pathetic is that you so desperately want to be articulate and "witty," and the best you can produce is an awkward assemblage of tropes and cliches that don't quite work with each other. Rough and unpolished...like everything else about you.

    Is it sad that you spent the night not getting laid (trying and failing, apparently) but went out to get drunk and high anyway? That is the implication...was it worth it? Do you feel empty now? Or was that walk of shame a little too much for you this morning?

  21. The Weschester News comment is by a bunch of guitto, Jersey trash PSYCHOS...Go check the website out. They are certifiable and insane. No wonder Italians have a bad reputation..most of them live up to being classless, trashy, loud, dumb, and dumber.
