All's Pharoah

The real reason for the violence in Cairo right now: the Egyptian people found out that Fuad Ramses would be the new official state caterer and health czar.



Please tell me somebody out there is familiar with this movie and I didn't just waste a perfectly good bit.

Pyramid Steam

Is this funny?

Eh, not particularly.

Is it offensive and does it warrant an immediate apology from Kenneth Cole himself for having the insensitivity to make light of the situation in Egypt?

Oh for God's sake.

If Kenneth Cole wants to make it up to all of the protesters in Cairo -- who you know took time out from being beaten savagely with truncheons today to complain about this tweet -- he should just ship over a bunch of shoes they can remove and throw at Mubarak's presidential palace.

Quote of the Week Month Year

"David Letterman will rape you with his mouth!"

-- Protester outside the Ed Sullivan theater last night calling for David Letterman to be fired in the wake of the joke he made about Sarah Palin's daughter

A huge crowd of 15 whole people showed up at the protest organized by Palin supporters and aimed at getting Letterman canned. Needless to say, these people made Glenn Beck and the teabaggers look like a Mensa meeting.

You can watch the footage of the demonstration for yourself here. I guarantee you it's the funniest thing you'll see all day.*

*Unless you happen to be Trig Palin's babysitter.
