The Child Pornographers and Other Bad News

keithsadguy.jpgAbuse, dancing, destruction, disappointment, death and Laffy Taffy, in that order:

8 year-olds, dude. The soooper-annoying Keith's Scottish guy is up on child porn charges - including pictures of infants.

SNL goes Narnia Rap Redux with a new viral video. Or at least an attempt. Meanwhile, eye writes about Queen Street Man this week. We just wrote that so we could write this: New look, new OUTlook.

Spitz destroys Destroyer. Indie-rock cheerleader Helen Spitzer breaks ranks to give the new Destroyer album two stars. It might not be on par with Tim Perlich's one N review of the Constantines (ie "the review heard round the city"), but still quite the bombshell. Will Carl Wilson ever be the same?

Which New York Times op-ed columnist are you? We're Bob Herbert, though we like to think we're Maureen Dowd.

It's 295 on the Chronic Disease clock. That means 295 people have died from chronic disease-related deaths today in CANADA.

OZone Magazine talks to pretty much every hip-hop DJ in the U.S. When asked what song most makes them sick at the moment, 90 per cent answered "Laffy Taffy."

This is what happens when you deviate from the norm of tits and houseparties... Shame on you Labatt's. Get back to basics!

 

Yes, clearly without the guidance of beer commercial sexism men revert to pedophilia. The upside to all this is that I never have to hear that annoying man yelling in a fake accent again. Now if only that Scottish-accented stick of gum in the juicy fruit commercial would be accused of something nasty too...

 

Maybe if he had worn some briefs under that kilt, the police wouldn't have been so suspicious. I'm just sayin'.

 

Just a side note: the Alexander Keith's scottish guy has also done kids films for Nelvana and other small Canadian production companies producing children's fluff. things that make you go hmmmmm.......

 

"... 295 people have died from chronic disease-related deaths this year."

I read this, and I was all, like, wow... I guess we have chronic diseases pretty much beat if only 300 people worldwide have died of chronic disease in 75 or so days.

Except the numbers are just for Canada.

Oh yeah, and also. the figure for Canada isn't 295. It's (as I write this) 21,619.

The 295 figure is how many died *today*.

 

thanks. that's what i meant.
