I'm not totally sure what they are reporting on here, but I'm pretty sure they did not run the proper video behind this news anchor. Unless he was reporting on hardcore pornography. Then they definitely played the correct video.

How to Write a Hot Girl Twitter Bio

0
0
Just like a crowded bar, Twitter is full of attractive women who are trying to mingle with the rest of us regular-looking folk. Unlike in a crowded bar, however, on Twitter the hot girl has the ability to show just how normal and down to earth she is before you even speak to her. That process usually involves writing a self-deprecating bio that harps on her love of food (just like you!), sports (just like you!) and a hilarious sense of humor (hey, you like to laugh, too! This might be a perfect match!). (It's not.)

In order to help any hot girls who are new to Twitter, we put together this handy guide to writing the typical hot girl Twitter bio. Just circle each bold word that applies to your hot-girl life in the form below and you will have the perfect bio that conveys your totally normal lifestyle. Then you can get back to posting bikini pictures from your boyfriend's yacht.

The Life of Cuervo Man: Then and Now

0
0

Recently, an old piece by John Hodgman (of "The Daily Show" and Mac/PC commercials fame) re-aired on This American Life. The subject of the story: The life of "party catalyst," Cuervo Man.

In case you aren't familiar, Cuervo Man was basically a real-life version of "Duffman" from "The Simpsons." A man, dressed up in an incredibly ridiculous outfit, whose job was to get people drunk on Jose Cuervo Tequila and get everyone partying.

According to Hodgman, Cuervo Man had a shaved head, a goatee and wore speedos, mirror shades, a red superhero cape, a toilet seat around his neck and a plunger on his head. He would notify people that they were "entering a party zone" via megaphone. He would often balance shots on his bald head and convince people to take it. He performed popular rock songs with the lyrics changed so that they were about Jose Cuervo.

The man behind the plunger hat and toilet seat necklace-wearing hype man was Ryan McDonough, an aspiring actor. The suits at Cuervo described his job as "interactive promotions designed to introduce consumers to the responsible enjoyment of the various Jose Cuervo Tequilas" which loosely translated means "we'll pay you to make an ass out of yourself."

McDonough, a Princeton alum who originally started looking for a job in finance, decided that getting paid to party was a once in a lifetime opportunity. So, he gave up any other plans and took on this dream job when it was offered to him. And thus began his career as Cuervo Man.

So what has become of the man behind Cuervo Man since? According to McDonough's blog in a post titled "Do I Miss Being Cuervo Man," he has simply moved on. It was a very fun time in his life, getting paid to party, but around the time the John Hodgman piece hit the internet, Cuervo decided it was time to go in another direction. They wanted to be known as a more sophisticated type of booze, not the kind that is a first step towards spending the night spooning with your toilet.

McDonough has gone on to pursue his original love of acting. His website calls him "The Original Party Catalyst" and boasts endless acting, voiceover, and hosting reels, such as this one which happens to highlight some of time he spent as Cuervo Man:

The Long, Strange Trip of CIA "Outlaw" Thor Hansen

0
0
thor hansenOne of the most bizarre criminal trials in United States history just came to a close in March with the deportation of Thor Hansen, outlaw biker, country singer and self-proclaimed terrorist trainer for the CIA. It took place in Florida, land of madness, and stretched over three decades. Buckle in - this is going to be a bumpy ride.

Born in Oslo, Norway, Thor Holm Hansen's parents uprooted the family to Milwaukee, Wisconsin in 1950. His father was violent and abusive, and eventually young Thor was removed from his custody and put into a home. His criminal record started to pick up steam in his teens, being charged with securities fraud, rape, aggravated assault and more.

This behavior brought him to the attention of the Outlaws, a national motorcycle club that's the main rival to the Hell's Angels. Hansen was patched into the club in the 1970s and rapidly became a major player in the group's various criminal activities, including protection rackets, drug smuggling and more. He also had a real way with the ladies, especially the rich ones like Ritchey Farrell, a heiress to the Maxwell House coffee fortune, who he married.

Things looked rough for Hansen in 1978, when he was finally brought to trial for the gruesome execution of a traitorous Outlaws member. Even though witnesses saw Thor at the scene with a smoking shotgun, the jury couldn't come to a verdict and a mistrial was declared. Hansen's lawyer worked out a plea bargain that included deportation back to Norway. But one thing you'll learn about Thor Hansen is that he doesn't give up easily.

Amazingly enough, just a month after he was shipped back to Europe, Hansen is pulled over for a busted taillight - back in Florida. Through a series of legal machinations and bureaucratic SNAFUs, Hansen managed to stay in the States to see the birth of his daughter Nancy in 1979. And that's the year things start to get really weird.

One night, Ritchey recalls Hansen coming back to their apartment wild-eyed, claiming that he's just met with the CIA. The spy agency told him that they can help him with his immigration issue if he helps them with a little problem they're having down in Haiti. That problem was Jean-Claude "Baby Doc" Duvalier (pictured, left), a debauched dictator who was driving the country down the toilet at the expense of its starving citizens. Obviously the United States couldn't explicitly do anything about it, but a group of concerned citizens sure could.

In 1981, Lantana, Florida residents found themselves with some strange new neighbors. A ranch house on five acres was suddenly occupied by a cadre of Haitian men doing military exercises with broomsticks and wooden guns. The story they told was that they were filming a movie called Swamp Rats. And who owned the production company behind the film? Thor Hansen, that's who. Just weeks later, the ranch's owner evicted the group, who left behind a horrible mess and dozens of empty whiskey bottles.

Later that same year, Thor Hansen headed to an Italian restaurant in Fort Lauderdale with one of his girlfriends. But this was a business dinner - he met two men there and exchanged two ounces of cocaine for $53,800 and a dismantled frag grenade. He promised them six more ounces for a hundred more grenades. And then the men - who were DEA agents - cuffed him and took him into custody.

Hansen's case went to trial on May 18th, 1981. But he wasn't there for it. Just minutes before he was scheduled to appear in court, he simply walked out of the courthouse and escaped, taking a sailboat to the Bahamas and flying from there to Norway. He claims that a CIA double agent had told him that his family would be in grave danger if he went to court, so to save their lives he fled the country. He was found guilty in absence and sentenced to 15 years in prison.

thor hansenMost fugitives keep a pretty low profile when they're on the run. Thor Hansen is not most fugitives. When he finally returned to Norway, he started dressing all in black, dating Italian porn stars and releasing country music singles. He also wrote a book about his adventures to that point, called Outlaw Biker. It's a fascinatingly weird document, filled with tales of freebasing with Gary Busey and Jan Michael Vincent and rambling tales about how the CIA set him up.

The Haitian coup? It almost happened. A number of the other collaborators were caught in 1982 when the Coast Guard intercepted two boats headed for the island. They carried crews of 15 men armed to the teeth with rifles, pistols, grenades and a staggering 17,000 rounds of ammunition. Some of Hansen's collaborators, including prospective Haitian president Roland Magliore, were arrested in conjunction with the attempted attack.

In 1997, Hansen was finally nabbed in Belgium and extradited to the States to serve his sentence. He spent seven years in prison, filing multiple lawsuits against everybody responsible for his conviction - lawsuits that he claimed to have won, even though they were all thrown out of court. Bizarrely enough, his sentence only served the cocaine deal, and he wasn't charged with bail jumping before he returned to Norway and his music career.

In 2012, Hansen finally returned to the United States. He'd received a phone call from his daughter Nancy, who told him that she desperately needed $500. Knowing that she'd become involved with drugs, Hansen refused to send the money and instead flew here to find her. He was immediately captured at the airport and made to stand trial for his 1981 bail jump. Once again, he tried to expose the CIA conspiracy he alleged had set him up, and once again a judge found no proof that any of his allegations were true.

Instead of jail time, Thor Holm Hansen was once again deported to Norway. He intends to appeal the ruling, but we're doubtful it'll change anything. But what really happened at that camp in 1981? Who funded the training of that small Haitian expatriate army? The best theory we have is that Hansen may well have been working for the government, but went into business on his own with the cocaine deal and got burned doing it. The CIA, obviously, isn't talking. When you're trying to find the truth and dealing with professional liars, it can be a tricky business indeed.

An Exclusive Interview with the WWE's Randy Orton

0

randy orton, wwe, professional wrestling
WWE's Randy Orton recently took some time to talk to us about his film, "12 Rounds: Reloaded", who his favorite wrestlers were as a kid, his life as a professional wrestler, and to offer advice for aspiring wrestlers.

Mandatory: Thanks so much for taking the time to answer a few questions, I know you're busy. I just watched "12 Rounds: Reloaded" and it was great. What was it like working in front of a camera instead of an arena full of fans?

Randy Orton: Well, in that arena full of fans there's usually a couple of cameras keeping an eye on us there too, you know? When we do T.V., we've got 5, 6, 7 cameras on us at one time and that's how this director liked to do things. He always had at least 4 or 5 cameras running so the whole multiple cameras and, you know, in front of people thing, I was used to that. Doing live TV, there's nothing more stressful than that, but with the movie, I was very nervous. I had about 20 hours of acting classes crammed in the week before I flew up to Vancouver. We rehearsed up there for a week and that helped with some of the nerves, being up there around everybody. Everyone was great and really nice to me. They knew I was a beginner and that I needed to lean on them as much as possible, but it was kind of a lot less stressful than the whole wrestling thing because we had take after take after take. If something happened the director didn't like, just do it again.

Were there any changes to your workout regimen for the movie compared to your regular workout routine?

Oh yeah, well even normally it's difficult to get into the gym more than two or three times per week but add in another four 10-20 minutes matches onto that, that's enough for a week. But you know in this instance with the movie I had two days off in eight weeks. We shot for five weeks and I would fly home on Monday and come back on Wednesday every week when I was doing the movie. What I was doing on those days, while everyone else had the day off, I would go do Smackdown or Raw. So I did that for five weeks then we went straight to a European tour after that, that was almost three weeks. So it was a tough eight week process when I was gone last fall, but it was worth it and time flew that's for sure. Time just flew by because you're working so much. My workouts really did suffer. I was trying to eat as clean as I could and definitely hit the weights at least once a week. Anything more than that I just didn't have the time.

Did you do your own stunts for the movie?

I did them all. There was one scene where I actually got kicked down a flight of stairs. I had a stunt double. His name was Ed. He was Triple H's stunt double for "Blade: Trinity" with Wesley Snipes, as a matter of fact. Good guy. He told me about a bunch of cool stuff he had done. But he didn't get to work much [on this film] so he didn't like me too much I'd imagine. They get paid for every bump they take and the bigger the bump, the more money. I remember joking with him about taking bumps like, "Yeah I wish I got paid for every bump I took, I'd be a billionaire!"

Now that you've gotten into acting is there anyone that you would like to act alongside in the future?

Yeah man, you know, I hadn't thought that far ahead I must admit. But there's certainly a lot of guys. Russell Crowe. Definitely Kevin Spacey, and a couple of girls I wouldn't mind acting with. What's that girl from uh, oh I'm drawing a blank. She's a Spanish lady. Vergara?

Oh, Sofia Vergara from Modern Family?

Ooooh damn, I'll do a little acting with her, how about that? [laughs]
randy orton, wwe, professional wrestling
Now obviously wrestling has been a part of your family for your entire life. Who were some of your favorite wrestlers when you were growing up?

Oh [Roddy] Piper was a big one. He'd be around the house a lot because he and my dad were buddies. Hogan would come by. We had a condo in St. Louis and whenever the guys were coming through or working in St. Louis, they'd pass through and eat with my dad, you know. Hillbilly Jim, when I was a kid, Junkyard Dog, Nikolai Volkoff. I remember the funniest characters, man and they were all really good to me. Bret Hart watched me for a summer. While my dad would go to the ring, Bret would watch me in the back and I was probably only 5 or 6 years old, you know. I wish I had a camera back then because there's a lot of memories but you can only remember so much and I know I got to see a lot of interesting stuff.

Definitely. Now you were the youngest person ever to hold the WWE World Heavyweight Championship. What advice would you give to young athletes who are aspiring to make it in professional wrestling?

Well I would say there's a few things really. You want to be careful because there's a lot of schools out there that these kids could give thousands of dollars to and they can learn how to wrestle but it's not that easy. I would say for anyone wanting to get into the business, guy or gal, the most important thing is to take care of your college education first. Make sure you have something to fall back on. You may have a better chance of becoming a pro football player than you would a pro wrestler so just keep that in mind. Not everyone can do it. You guys know that we're telling a story and it's just entertainment but, you know, I've got friends that can't wrestle anymore because their necks can't take it. I have people that I know that have given their lives for the business. It's not easy. So definitely have something to fall back on and don't just give your money to the first wrestling old timer that says "Hey I'll take your money! I'll teach you how to wrestle!" Just always think twice.

That's solid advice. Now if you weren't wrestling or acting what do you think you'd be doing for a living?

You know it's funny, doing the stunts in the movie especially the ones in the car, that was so much fun. I could see myself doing that. I could be a stuntman. It was pure adrenaline. I'm a bit of an adrenaline junkie myself, you know, not like John Morrison or Evan Bourne adrenaline junkie. I'm not jumping out of planes anytime soon, but the whole stuntman thing was fun. Doing 180s and the 360s in the car and hitting the brakes, then running a car into the tail end of a cop car. That was fun. I got to do all the banging and smashing with the cars, that was me. I would be a stuntman if I wasn't a wrestler, for sure.

Last question and I'll let you get out of here, what can fans expect from you next?

Wow, well I will be working on getting some gold around my waist because it has been too long. That's what I'll be focusing on next.

The Dumbest Facebook Memes of All Time

0
0
Facebook can be a great way to keep in touch with family, find old friends or check up on an ex to see if they're still as annoying as when you guys were together. It's great! However, there's also another side to Facebook. There are groups created to try and generate traffic by whatever means necessary. Instead of posting interesting or engaging content, these groups pander to the lowest common denominator and create idiotic memes that, shockingly, thousands of people take part in. Here are the all time dumbest Facebook memes you will ever see. Get ready to question the intelligence of a lot of people.


Okay ... I get the comparison of Lebron and Jordan, but how exactly do Jesus and internal demons tie into this debate? That one is bad, but this next one is just plain absurd:


Like for Jesus is a nice gesture I guess, but am I supposed to choose between the four of these? Am I deciding if I prefer Miley Cyrus, the son of God, my mom or what appears to be an infected hobbit's foot? Can I choose more than one? Just a note, notice the number of likes and shares. Almost 40,000 people thought, "Well, this seems like a legitimate debate that deserves a vote."


I think you should be more scared of your complete lack of literacy. "Dieing" isn't a word and also, I too am scared for you to "loose" your mom. That sounds gross, not to mention illegal.


Here are a couple of memes with no real middle ground or room for negotiation. You either 'like' this and prove your love for the wonderful women in your life, or you wish they were dead. It's really that simple. Again, over 600,000 participated in this! That's roughly the population of Milwaukee.


You're probably suspecting that these are so ridiculous that they're fake and I made them up. I wish for the sake of the human race that were the case. I find whoever made this to be incredibly offensive since the average person wouldn't look at this picture and think, "Oh look, those different races are co-existing. That's unusual. I should exploit it!"


On top of being offensive, the stupid crying emoticon is ridiculous. Is there an option for disliking terrible Photoshop work? Also if you think this is real for even a second, ask yourself this: Who took that photo? The cat?


Well, I am against terrorism but I'm not exactly sure what you mean by "Your nation to be blast." If you mean do I want my nation to be blasted by attacks then, no, I don't want that. But, if you mean do I want my nation to be a blast, then, yes, yes I do. I love fun.


Why is he so surprised? Apparently, he talks to God so much that he has His number saved in his phone, so it shouldn't be a big shocker to get a text from Him.


Well, that was easy!


No way, how wacky! You're saying that during the eight hours you spent in bed you moved around a little? Me too! I gotta share this with my friends and see if they also share this normal human trait!


I scrolled for a good ten minutes and never saw Satan once. I have to give it to these guys, at least Miley Cyrus isn't involved in their decision-making process.


This one got over 19,000 likes. Seriously, do they realize the irony?

Shaq Heads Into the Off-Season by Nearly Falling Off the Set

0
0


In the NBA on TNT's final installment of their very enjoyable Gone Fishin' segment, 4-time NBA champion Shaquille O'Neal went off the air in pretty embarrassing, but typically entertaining fashion. As the four-man crew of O'Neal, Ernie Johnson, Kenny Smith and Charles Barkley were signing off for the final time this season, Shaq went into an exaggerated and faux struggle with a "Chuck whale on the line." As O'Neal pretended to struggle with his fish, he leaned back further and further ... until he just tumbled over. As guards and producers rushed over to help the giant O'Neal, the rest of his fellow commentators just laughed and made fun of their colleague. If you've ever watched the TNT NBA crew before, you know their season couldn't have ended in a more fitting way.
