This is totally not relevant local news, but ABC16 begs to differ. They went out and interviewed people in town to find out their reaction to Jon and Kate Gosselin’s recent divorce announcement. Bla bla bla. Here is the skinny…they are filing for divorce while continue to produce/air new episodes which supposedly give them $75k per episode. With 8 kids to feed and lawyers about to tear out each others throats now is about bringing in as much cash as possible, even if it means airing your dirty laundry. While taking a moral high ground might make you feel all warm and gushy inside, unfortunately it doesn’t pay the bills. On the flip side maybe we will all know what a divorce really is like…cause this is not any of that made for reality TV crap…oh wait

The writers of the show are absolutely brilliant. Who saw this divorce twist coming? Eat your heart out Tina Fey.
I think…who gives a rat’s ass. Some bitch is married to some poor slob. They’re gonna get divorced. Ooooh the excitement. Thanks for tabloiding it up in here.
I refuse to watch a show featuring a woman that looks like she has a large hedgehog humping the back of her head.
TMZ brilliantly described her ‘do as a “chunk-striped, bi-level porcupine reverse mullet weave”.

Ok. I went out and considered things. This post is sooo bad, so very very bad, that it calls for an emergency link dump. I do this out of the kindness of my heart, just so lurkers and regulars can garner something, anything from this thread. Just remember, in the future, it is better to have no new topic for days on end than to reach this far down to fill space. So without further ado…

The 15 most disturbing films ever made:
http://movies.popcrunch.com/the-15-most-disturbing-movies-ever-made/
And number one one on that list (which you should avoid, and is not even remotely safe for work) August Underground Mordum
http://video.google.com/videosearch?q=August+Underground+Mordum&hl=en&emb=0&aq=f#
Seriously, avoid this.
i can’t believe “teeth” didn’t make it onto that list. sheesh!
Have you seen the movie Suicide Club? It’s probably one of the more confusing/disturbing movies I’ve seen…mostly because I can’t figure out what the hell is going on. And I’ve had sufficient exposure to Miike…anyone have any thoughts on the scene in the chicken house? Or the real meaning of the song “Mail Me”?
Is that the one with the Japanese schoolgirls? I added to our Netflix queue but Donk never wants to watch it.
I’ve never seen it, but I’m going to go ahead and say your time was better spent.
I’ve never seen it either. But you could watch the sequal to fill in some holes:
Noriko’s Dinner Table
A third movie is apparantly also being filmed. /the wikipedia says so
Its about Jesus, conspicuous consumption, artificial mandibles, referred inferiority, angst, breasts and third part dementia as a spectator sport. In other words: “good television”.
/your life sucks.
Haha. I still can’t figure out if I loved it or hated it. My best friend from high school made me a CD with the “Mail Me” and “Dead is a Shine All Night Long” songs and they both creep me out when I hear them.
i used to work with dylan baker & his wife, i think right after happiness came out. he said he had difficulty picking up his kids at school after that bc the parents had problems with the concept of his being an actor not a child molester.
interesting that requiem for a dream & american psycho are said to be disturbing books & not movies. and i’d still list clockwork orange on both lists. did you know “singing in the rain” was a spur of the moment decision bc they wanted the starguy (sorry don’t remember his name–had a bottle of pink wine tonight) to sing a song & the only one whose words he knew was singing in the rain? i used to teach the book & movie. now i am thoroughly sick of it.

Ok so I went out and there were 3 comments on this post. I come back 2 hours later and there were 33. I actually grimaced as I clicked on the link, because if one single person was interested in seriously discussing this shit, I was going to go completely berserk. But you didn’t. My faith is restored.Thank you.
fuck, just found out my mom watches that show and is very freaked out by the divorce potential. Flooze, can you adopt me? I’m nice and a good son….. just don’t make me go to church or live with a cat.
That Kate woman is the world’s largest douchebag. She is horrible, horrible, horrible. And her haircut. Don’t even get me started. Oy veh.
My bf watches it religiously, and I stand in the doorway to mock him, but I end up catching snippets and instantly regretting it.
You should just give him back his penis already. Sheesh.
Would your bernese get on with a 195lb neapolitan mastiff?
Floozy, I always knew you had the heart of a madam.
Unfortunately we just found out our dog Abu (named after the terrorist Abu Nidal) Not really, just kidding…. Anyway our dog does not have much time left on this earth. Very sad.
But our American Foxhound my old dog Rusty, well he’d fed ex (absolutely, positively overnight) the goods to many species of animals. But, I bet that dog of yours has a Patrick Ewing like package and Rusty might be a bit nervous, but we shall see.
I was at the grocery store the other day and that chick with the horrific haircut on that heinous show was in a bikini in some fuckstick magazine there at checkout. She is vile. I’m not one of those guys that thinks women should be sticks, but she is nasty…. I actually like a girl that My stupid show that I like to watch is on Bravo and called something like The Millionaire Matchmaker. It’s a show so bad it’s in fact good. The guys on that show are such douchebags that it makes me never ever want to go to LA EVER>
And Vicodin? You should examine all options before marrying a guy that watches Jon and Kate plus Eight. Dear God. Also make sure you don’t drink too much Vino with all those pills, the tylanol in em will rot your vagina and will kill you!
Why? Explain?
i think the real question here is which is worse: this crap, or the jersey housewives?
/shamelessly addicted to bravo. god, i hate summer tv.
note to network schedulers: more of these: mark & olly, anthony bourdain, sit down shut up, better off ted, in the motherhood. less tyra, john and kate, tim gunn, those cunts on what not to wear, and please no more simon cowell anymore, ever.
Not sure I have seen the C word used on this blog before… Nice.
Guess you weren’t here when some dude told Lilith she sounded like a cunt. Or when Happy Hooker said I sounded like a cunt.
i think UVALaGrape is a frequent user of similar terminology? Floozy once called me a ‘myopic twat’, which i subesequently and lovingly had tattooed on my forehead.
and, please bear in mind, I was applying the C word to both that slaggy woman and that skanky homosexual man, so, no gender bias or sexism or mysogany here.
My favorite curse word is motherfucking cocksucking douchebag. My wife hits me when I use the C word. Like when I listen to Laura Ingraham for 30 seconds on WINA, or when Susan Waldman does Yankees games on the radio. I have many issues…. Shen you aren’t a C word. You are the L word. Lovely…
