The other day I was watching Nightline and they did this special on This Siberian dude claiming to be Jesus of Narareth who hath returned to have you do his bidding.

It reminded me of this:

Disney Pixar started airing advertisments for its upcoming movie Wall-E. The problem is the main character is a total Rip of Johnny-5 from Short Circuit! See for yourself:

In 2010 a Short Circuit remake is due to come out. Ironically young kids who become familiar with Wall-E might think Johnny-5 is a cheap rip, when its the other way around! Wall-E is a bastardized reincarnate of a robot icon from the 80s!

I was expecting this to happen sooner than it did.

Barack Obama personally called to apologize Thursday to the two Muslim women from Michigan barred from sitting next to him during a campaign rally Monday because they wore Islamic head scarves.

One of the women, Shimaa Abdelfadeel, told the Free Press that Obama called her “to personally convey his deepest apologies and acknowledge that this was inexcusable.”

The first thing he does is quit all his jobs. Then he puts on a long white tee and asks if now he’s supposed to be somebody babby daddy. Hilarious.

Aaron Magruder the creator of Boondocks is amazingly self critical of his own people while not hating his people. Often people compare his success to the success of Dave Chappelle. Dave always wondered if he was reinforcing racist stereotypes. Magruder through the various characters can touch on these stereotypes and in some cases he’s criticizing his own people quite strongly. For example look at how he portrays BET in this clip (Boondocks airs on adult swim, not BET - Ruckus’s reality show is on BET in this episode). But then again he can criticize self hating black people like Ruckus who are brainwashed. The Barber shop scene is a perfect example.

Season 2 of the Boondocks had its moments. I can’t wait for Season three.

It costs $482.79 to get a decent pizza in San Francisco — $17 for the pie, $85 for cab fare, and $378.80 for the flight to New York.

This article from Wired.com and the fact that New Yorkers are always looking to find a good economical slice of pizza to scarf down inspired me to write this post.

The following is not meant to be a definitive list, as I admit I haven’t had the opportunity to check out all of the alleged best pizza spots.

1. Armondos II aka Starrett Pizza
location:1366 Pennsylvania Ave, Brooklyn, NY 11239 | map | (718) 642-8253
Growing up in Starrett City, going out for lunch used to be a special once a week event you had to remember getting a parental permission slip for. Aside from the nostalgia, hands down their pizza is the best in New York City . Every single ingredient tastes great and you never leave dissatisfied. I highly recommend it, even to those who are too scared to come to Brooklyn.

2. Woodlawn Pizza
location: Jerome Ave & Bainbridge Ave, Bronx, NY 10467 (under train station) | map
Located at the last stop on the 4 train in the Bronx. They make such good pizza, that if you find yourself on that side of the bridge you have to make a detour to get one of those oversized slices. (You have to get single slices to get the bigger sized slice). Compared to Armondos, Woodlawn slices are a little more flakier, but still very good.
