Three Stars of the Newscycle: 6.27.06
June 27th, 2006 by Justin
Huh? What was that? You want an off color joke about a scientific discovery? And then geek news? And THEN a snarky comment on how overdone internet crime stories are? Fine. I aim to please.
- GOOD NEWS! (for homophobic, hypersensitive fathers who are looking for a scientifically sound reason to beat their wives because their son is gay)
- Superman Returns has a 78% Rotten Tomatoes rating
- MBF proposes a new game, whenever you see a regular crime story that you would like to update and bring a new “hip” context, take the “…On MySpace” challenge. For instance, who wants to read about teenage girls robbing someone, when you can have a headline like Teenage Girls Rob Man they Met on MySpace. It’s that easy! The Fortune Cookie “… In Bed” game ain’t got shit on this.
