Burger King Ad

There is certainly nothing subtle about the the double entrendres in the latest ad campaign from fast food giant, Burger King. While I'm all for using sex creatively in advertising, even I had to cringe a bit when I saw this advertisement. Holy shit! Why not just hang a pair of testicles off that big, phallic looking sandwich, and shove it down the woman's throat while you're at it. And with all that naughty imagery already working for them, the words "super seven incher" pretty much pushes it over the top.

I'm speechless!

Maybe we should have seen this coming after the "square butts" advertisement of awhile back. Something tells me someone on their advertising staff formerly worked in the porno industry.

New JibJab Obama Video

Those cheeky folks at jibjab.com take another uncompromising poke at the esteemed POTUS with He's Barack Obama, playing up his "superhero" persona.

The clip debuted before Obama, himself, at the Radio and Television Correspondents' Association dinner Friday evening.

Wickedly funny, as usual.

President Obama Kills White House Rat With Paperweight

Holy crap! As if that whole 'Obama fly incident' wasn't enough. I have been told by a semi-reliable, and semi-drunk, source that during a meeting in the Oval Office with his staff, a rat scurried from under Mr. Obama's desk. Without missing a beat, our valiant commander-in-chief grabbed a sturdy paperweight and gave the little rodent a sound bashing. He then tossed the carcass into the wastebasket and called for a White House staffer to dispose of the remains.

PETA is gonna go ape shit over this one, I tell ya.

I'll have more on this story just as soon as my source has thoroughly sobered up.

Letterman Apologizes to Palin

As much as I agree with the sentiment that David Letterman's joke was over the line, that he caved to the outcry by Palin supporters -- which was preceded by the Alaska Governor's pathetic whining over the incident -- just doesn't sit right with me. I find Palin's politics far more offensive than the joke in question, quite frankly. If it had been, I would have apologized with a little less groveling. Something like this would have been appropriate:

"While I apologize for making such an offensive joke about Governor Palin's daughter, the joke pales in comparison to the offensiveness of legalizing the gassing of wolves in Alaska -- as if shooting them from helicopters wasn't enough. But of course, I understand, as deplorable as Mrs. Palin's politics are, her family should be off limits to off color humor. However, in the future, maybe she will think twice before parading them so mercilessly before the media."

That would work for me. Anyway, here's Dave's full apology, which came at the beginning of the desk portion of Monday night's program.

72-Year-Old Woman Gets Tasered

Let this be a lesson to all senior citizens. Don't think just because you're old, you can get away with being cantankerous. No, your sucking around for a serious dose of electricity to your frail bodies.

Come on now, you've been cruising on your elderly status for too long. Nobody appreciates someone who farts in public, smells like urine, and runs off at the mouth, telling everyone exactly what's on their mind. It was quaint for awhile, but those days are over.

Soon, it won't be just the law coming at you with high voltage. One of these days, we'll all be armed with tasers, ready to zap your annoying asses!

"Oh, you think I'm wasting my life, huh Grandma? Well, at least I don't sit around all day watching TV and swilling Geritol! Take this, you old bat!" ZAAPPPPPP!!!!!

Ok, seriously, now. It did seem a little unnecessary for this Texas trooper to resort to tasering this 72-year-old woman. She might have a bad heart for all he knew. Sheesh!

Hoopla Over Letterman's Sarah Palin Top 10 List

David Letterman served up an edgy Top 10 List directed at Sarah Palin last night and sheer outrage has ensued. Palin is currently visiting New York City. One of the entries suggested that Palin was looking to update her "slutty flight attendant look."

That was pretty tame, in my opinion. However, the joke about Palin's 14-year-old daughter being knocked up at Yankee stadium was probably the lowest blow of them all. That's the nature of late night comedy, folks. But even I would have to admit that went a little too far -- and I'm one sick bastard. Leave the kids alone, for fuck's sake.

Still, the media attention is ridiculous.
