Apparently twitter exploded (I still refuse to tweet on principle) after the ceremony with people making pointed commentary like "Arcade Fire??? WTF!" Although, I would have liked to see what kind of shit Gaga would have pulled for her acceptance speech... sigh, maybe next year

Hipster Attack
I was so happy to hear Arcade Fire beat out Beiber, Katy Perry etc for Album at the Year at the Grammy's. However, some idiots still haven't gotten the memo...

Boo - Dog of Satan
UPDATE: I was checking up on Boo, the disputed "cutest dog in the world", like I normally do. When I came across his evil twin... Literally.
Meet Boo - Dog of Satan... Nay, bow before him
Boo - Dog of Satan Hi! My name is Boo! I drink the blood of those who defy my owner, the dark lord. Like my page!
Here are some of my faves from his evil page...
Please note the comments... Do it Vicky Zulli Belveduto (an actual name?), we all know you want to...
Check out Boo's doppelganger on his facebook page, like him... if you dare.

Super Bowl
If you haven't checked out The Onion Sports Network, which rips SportsCenter a new a-hole every week, you should probably set your DVR. Here is a Super Bowl sample...
Also, if you are halfway-dreading hosting and/or going to a Super Bowl party this weekend. You can just check off this list of obnoxious people that you will undoubtedly run into...

We all know 'em....
The Culprits
1. Guy who is way too excited for the halftime show.
Overheard: “I can’t wait for the Black Eyed Peas! Ten bucks says they open with ‘I Gotta Feeling.’ I hope there’s some sick surprise, like Bon Jovi playing a mashup with them. That would be tight!”
2. Guy who still thinks commercials are the best part and forces laughter at trite beer ads to prove his point.
Overheard: “Cedric the Entertainer just chose Bud Light over his hot girlfriend! HAHA! CLASSIC!”
3. Degenerate gambler glued to his phone/laptop, betting on every play and prop bet.
Overheard: “click click click click. YES! click click click click. FUCK!”
4. Guy who won’t shut up about his office pool and how he almost won it last year.
Overheard: “Dude, I was this fucking close! This dork from accounting beat me by one point, and he doesn’t know ANYTHING about football. I was so pissed, bro!”
5. Girl who hates football, but cheers for her dickhead boyfriend’s team because he’s a manipulative prick who makes her beg for validation.
Overheard: “Look, honey, they’re making a touchdown kick! Please love me.”
6. Guy who coaches youth football and eagerly breaks down the game’s strategy for the rest of us mere pedestrians.
Overheard: “See, the Packers want to score before halftime, but they don’t want to leave TOO MUCH time on the clock and give the Steelers a chance to score, too. I did the same thing against Springfield in the playoffs. I wasn’t gonna let little Jimmy Burke burn me again!”
7. Guy who saw Drew Brees at the airport and thinks he’s overrated because “he’s not that big.”
Overheard: “I’m telling you, he’s MAAAYBE 6’1” with shoes. He wasn’t even the biggest guy in the terminal. I saw him in line at Jamba Juice, and I totally could have tackled him from behind, but his kid was there and I didn’t want to embarrass him.”
8. Guy who spews esoteric football terms, but can’t explain what they actually mean when pressed.
Overheard: “They need to use zone blitzes to counter those delayed slip screens!”
9. Desperate girl with no self-esteem who pretends to love football and beer so guys will think she’s super cool and fall in love with her.
Overheard: “I’m TOTALLY addicted to football! Most girls spend weekends shopping and working out. Not me. I’d rather chill and watch sports. And I make the BEST game snacks!”
Extra point: She has no idea which teams are actually playing in the game, and the only football players she can name are the ones involved in tabloid gossip.
10. Fat ass who just came for the snacks.
Overheard: “Dude, you can’t eat wings without blue cheese! Ever dip pizza in ranch? It’s phe-NOMINAL!”
Extra point: Will try to flirt with the no-self-esteem girl. Unfortunately, she’ll eventually realize how little he knows about football and that even she can do better.
11. Guy who already has the Packers’ offense solved because he’s “crushed them on Madden a million times.”
Overheard: “Dude, all you need to do is collapse the pocket with the nose tackle, then switch to the blitzing linebacker and knock the shit out of Rodgers with the Hit Stick button.”
12. Socially awkward guy who tries too hard to fit in by overreacting to mundane things.
Overheard: “Offsetting penalties?! We’re all fucked!”
13. Guy who thinks his terrible team is one key draft pick away from winning next year’s Super Bowl.
Overheard: “I already booked my flight to New York for the draft! We were 4-12 last year, but we were SO CLOSE to being 12-4. Three of those losses were by less than four points, and the refs basically handed two more to the other team. If we snag that right guard from Notre Dame, we’ll be unstoppable!”
14. Guy who high-five rapes everybody, even when celebration isn’t warranted.
Overheard: “That’s a 4-yard gain, right up their ass! Don’t leave me hanging, bro!”
15. Guy who tries to teach the token hot girl about football because he thinks she’s impressed by his condescending tutorials.
Overheard: “See that guy with the ball? He’s trying to throw it to one of those little fast guys before the other team tackles him. That’s called a sack. Don’t worry; I didn’t really understand football until I made captain in high school.”
16. Guy who thinks his (obviously premeditated) sexual puns are hilarious.
Overheard: “Time to penetrate the end zone! LOL! They should double-team the tight end! HAHA!”
17. Obese slob who thinks he could be an NFL lineman because he’s “heavier than those guys” and “used to wreck shop in JV.”
Overheard: “People always ask if I play football because I’m such a big guy. I wear 5XL T-shirts. Most of these guys are only 3XLs. I weighed 350 in high school. I would have gone pro if coach didn’t bench me because of my asthma.”
18. Guy who hangs on every word the broadcasters say, praying they’ll misspeak so he can ridicule them.
Overheard: “Did you hear that? He just said this is Roethlisberger’s third Super Bowl in six years. This is his seventh season. Fucking morons!”
19. Guy who is SO FUCKING INTENSE about football that you BETTER NOT FUCKING TALK to him when his team has the ball!
Overheard: “Shut the fuck up, everybody! I want to hear Rodgers’ audibles and all the offensive-line calls! This is the Super Bowl, not fucking happy hour!”
20. Guy who spent the last two weeks memorizing obscure stats to casually rattle off.
Overheard: “Yeah, Rodgers is pretty good, but his passer rating is only 78.2 when rolling to his left in domed stadiums.”
21. Guy who wears a zany wig, shoulder pads and face paint because he’d rather prove he’s a die-hard fan than comfortably enjoy the game.
Overheard: “What do you think of my outfit? I spent two weeks putting it together. I can’t wait to post these pictures on Facebook!”
Overheard: “I can’t wait for the Black Eyed Peas! Ten bucks says they open with ‘I Gotta Feeling.’ I hope there’s some sick surprise, like Bon Jovi playing a mashup with them. That would be tight!”
