Apparently nothing is sacred on Earth anymore. The early seasons (1 and 2) of the institutional children’s show “Sesame Street” were deemed inappropriate for children as they may have some material may not suit the minds of younger kids today.
According to a warning on Volumes 1 and 2, “Sesame Street: Old School” is adults-only: “These early ‘Sesame Street’ episodes are intended for grown-ups, and may not suit the needs of today’s preschool child.”
^Think about the show they are referring to and decide for yourself if you agree with the next statement:
America is on crack.
I read up more online about this issue and discovered that some producers and families feel that such actions and characters on the show are not productive in effectively teaching positive manners in our overly-protective society. To our soccer mom obsessive freak’s, they felt Oscar’s dumpster dwelling day’s in season 1 and 2 may cause a 3 year old to believe dumpster playtime was OK. Or that the Cookie Monster was a surefire influence to diabetes. But if that wasn’t enough they also felt that Big Bird was a reference to drugs. Because the bird was the only one who saw a large and fluffy elephant (thats right Snuffalufagus) it surely meant the bird was taking LSD. (more…)

I would like to dedicate this rant to George Mitchell. Georgie, you single handedly killed baseball for me; something I only thought the introduction of woman to the sport could do.
Earlier today, Mr. Mitchell released a report to the public and the commissioner of baseball in regards to players who have and players who currently use performance enhancing drugs.
To be honest George, I really do not care about your little report. I have as much interest in your report as I do for the democratic process of voting in America. (Apparently 66% of Americans who also did not vote this past election agree with me as well)

Why the hell is this writers strike still going? Which asshole is responsible for that?
For those of you who live under a rock, or if your an 16 year old teenage flake who lives off that MTV reality crap, here’s a recap. After watching how rich many television stars, such as Jay Leno, Conan O’Brien or Kiefer Sutherland have become, many writers for our favorite TV sitcoms have gone on strike. As they are underpaid for their work, such scribes feel unappreciated as even the stars with no acting ability, whom shall remain nameless *Lindsay Lohan, Drew Barrymore…*, come out with the pockets filled with cash. All these writers ask for is a little more money, but to the turds of high television, its too much to ask for. Our boy’s at NBC and Fox feel that their 10 million annual bonuses are way more important than fair pay to quality Americans.
I wonder what intelligence level it requires to hold a high executive position in such TV networks. You would imagine that the simplicity in this solution is one that would smack ‘em in the face. They don’t really want that much more money…we bring in butt loads with new episodes…they are doing most of the work to keep us in business…naw fuck it, let’s just show the last season of the series and see if anyone notices.

I have come to a conclusion about many of the “discoveries” that researches come across today; they are utter bullshit.
Recently, researchers have ” presented a conundrum to new mothers, saying that women who want to lose the extra weight gained in pregnancy should try to get more sleep.” While they gave me there blah blah blah scientific garbage, which I’ll never test myself to find out if its right or wrong, I thought about the actual statement.
More sleep apparently means losing weight. If this was true, I would have six pack abs and wouldn’t have to go to that bullshit place they call a gym in the next town over.
I tried to use my wasted years of biology to ponder the veracity of this statement, but there was not much I could recall since the class was taught at 8 in the morning. Finally, after some common sense, I cracked this mystery.
