Douchebags of the week: Viacom

It's my last douchebag for the year so here we go. So here's how much Viacom gives a fuck about it's viewers. If they don't come to some sort of agreement with Time Warner by Thursday at 12:01 a.m. they may very well pull the plug on 16 channels. We're talkin MTV, VH-1, Nickelodeon, Comedy Central, the list goes on an on. My kids like to watch Noggin and Nicktoons you sons of bitches!!! SpongeBob still makes me laugh to this day. I watch all your shitty shows like "I Love Money" and "Charm School". Watching that shit drunk is one of the highlights of my weekend and you want to take that away from me? Well FUCK YOU VIACOM and FUCK YOU TIME WARNER!! How are you going to shit on the motherfuckers who are putting all those millions in your pockets? Keep your little money beefs between you and Time Warner and don't involve the public. Just let us have our cheap thrills, with your shitty shows, and y'all can go and sit down somewhere and shut the fuck up.

P.S. Thanks for all the love this year. Hope everyone has a great 2009!!! 1 luv.

'Colbert,' 'SpongeBob' may go dark on Time Warner
By RYAN NAKASHIMA, AP Business Writer Ryan Nakashima, Ap Business Writer – 2 hrs 40 mins ago

LOS ANGELES – "SpongeBob SquarePants" might get squeezed off Time Warner Cable.
Media giant Viacom Inc. said its Nickelodeon, MTV, Comedy Central and 16 other channels will go dark for 13 million subscribers at 12:01 a.m. Thursday if a new carriage fee deal with Time Warner Cable Inc. is not agreed upon by then.
The impasse would mean "SpongeBob" and other popular shows like Jon Stewart's "The Daily Show" and Stephen Colbert's "The Colbert Report" will be cut off on the nation's second-largest cable operator. Time Warner Cable primarily serves people in New York state, the Carolinas, Ohio, Southern California and Texas.
Viacom has asked for fee increases of between 22 percent and 36 percent per channel, or a total of $39 million more, an amount that could increase customers' cable bills, said Time Warner Cable spokesman Alex Dudley.
"The issue is that they have asked for an exorbitant increase in their carriage fees and their network ratings are sagging," Dudley said. "Basically we're trying to hold the line for our customer."
Viacom spokeswoman Kelly McAndrew disputed the figure, saying Viacom requested an increase in the very low double-digit percentage range.
Viacom said the increases would cost an extra 23 cents a month per subscriber. It said that Americans spend a fifth of their TV time watching Viacom shows but its fees make up less than 2.5 percent of the Time Warner cable bill.
"We make this request because Time Warner Cable has so greatly undervalued our channels for so long," Viacom said.
"Ultimately, however, if Nickelodeon, Comedy Central, MTV and the rest of our programming is discontinued — over less than a penny per day — we believe viewers will see this behavior by their cable company as outrageous," Viacom said.
Time Warner Cable's Dudley said Viacom rejected his company's proposal to extend the contract while the sides continue to negotiate.
Instead, Viacom appealed directly to Time Warner Cable's customers, with TV ads in major markets. In Wednesday's New York Times, the company ran a full-page, color advertisement with Nickelodeon's animated bilingual heroine "Dora the Explorer" crying and clinging to her monkey pal, Boots.
"Why is Dora crying?" the ad asks. "Time Warner Cable is taking Dora off the air tonight!" The ad urges viewers to call Time Warner Cable and demand that their favorite shows remain on the air.
If the shows go dark after midnight, Time Warner Cable will send people to the Internet to catch episodes. Dudley said the cable operator also will make available a video teaching people how to hook their computers up to the TV to watch online shows — a tactic it used during a contract dispute with broadcaster LIN TV in October.
Part of the disagreement is that most of Viacom's popular shows are rerun on Web sites where Viacom collects advertising revenue that it does not share with Time Warner, Dudley said. "We don't think that's fair," he said.
Viacom has staked much of its revenue-growth prospects on its ability to extract higher carriage rates out of its cable and satellite affiliates despite an ad slowdown and weak ratings.
In the third quarter, media network revenue, which accounts for about two-thirds of Viacom's total, grew 6 percent to $2.1 billion, despite global ad revenue falling 2 percent, largely because of double-digit percentage growth in affiliate fees and the success of its "Rock Band" video game.
Viacom shares rose 45 cents, 2.3 percent, to $19.71 in late morning trading Wednesday. Time Warner Cable shares lost 39 cents, 1.8 percent, to $21.37.
The channels that would be affected are: Comedy Central, CMT: Pure Country, Logo, Palladia, MTV, MTV 2, MTV Hits, MTV Jams, MTV Tr3s, Nickelodeon, Noggin, Nick 2, Nicktoons, Spike, The N, TV Land, VH1, VH1 Classic, and VH1 Soul.

Blak America! You've been Punk'd yet again Jena 6 Style!

I'm glad I didn't give them little bastards my money...To keep it real, had I rode my black ass down there on a hot ass stank cheese bus, I'd be going back down there today to put my foot up that little fuck-tard's ass. First those little dickheads get all that donation money and buy bling to show off on the red carpet of the BET Awards and on you tube, and now one of the little motherfuckers runs off and shoots himself while cleaning a gun.

Why do you have a gun little fuck-tard?

To make matters worst, the little asshole just went to jail for shoplifting.

Check this bullshit out.

The adage goes: Some people never learn...

Some people take an event and use it as a turning point in their lives. There are thousands of examples of addicts, gang-bangers, murderers, and thieves turning from a cyclical life of detrimental behavior and incarceration to more fulfilling lives of public service, wealth, and/or personal and professional success of varying degrees. But some people use an event to further their slide into lives of social maladjustment and individual hardship.

Such would seem to be the case of Mychal Bell.

One of the six teenagers that comprised the Jena 6, Mychal Bell, now 18, spent a few hours in the hospital Tuesday morning following surgery from a non-life-threatening wound after a gun he was cleaning discharged Monday (December 29) night, wounding him in the shoulder. As CNN (and other media outlets) centers their attention on Bell once more, other recent events involving Bell have surfaced.

According to the News Star, Mychal Bell was arrested for shoplifting Christmas Eve. Bell and an unidentified male, according to Monroe authorities (Bell recently moved to Monroe from Jena), placed $370 worth of merchandise in a Dillard's shopping bag and exited the store. A security guard followed them and a chase ensued. Bell was later found hiding under a vehicle. Reports that Bell began swinging wildly after rising, striking the security officer. He was charged with shoplifting, resisting arrest, and simple battery.

Mychal Bell had been out of jail for less than one month from serving time for his involvement in the Jena 6 incident.

The shoe seen 'round the world

I know everyone and they're mother has blogged this already but shit, this is classic. It would be the ONE TIME Bush isn't drunk and had good reflexes. Dammit I wish he had beaned his ass. The funniest part is the second shoe. He hummed that bitch at Bush's face. That dude has a pretty decent arm. Maybe the Orioles should look into him for their pitching staff. Bush never lost his smarmy little smirk he has on his face either. Then he said "All I can report on is that it was a size ten shoe." The Arabs, or whatever thay guy was, believe that the sole of the shoe is the dirtiest part of the wardrobe, therefore disrespectful when referred to. I don't really know why that is because it sounds retarded to me but I'm glad in any event. This clip made my day. Enjoy.

T-Boz, Wyclef, and Fantansia's homes have all gone up for forclosure!...WTF????

I don't get it. T-Boz, for one, signed a deal with her group TLC right before they released "Fanmail" that was worth 30 million d0llars. 10 million a girl. How the hell is her home up for foreclosure over a half a million? The home is only worth 1.5 million. Why wasn't it paid in full, and further more, why won't she go on tour? I'm not saying do an arena tour, but TLC(T-Boz and Chilli) still have enough of a fan base to do maybe a small venue tour in venues that hold around 1000 people. 1000 people at 50 a person for 20 cities is a million bucks. Do it small scale and they could walk away with $150,000 a piece.

Wyclef is also a mystery. He has been consistently producing hits, and he still has a massive international following.

Fantasia doesn't need two houses if she is still in that whack contract that gives Simon Fuller 45%.

I don't know.

This is a mess.

I think stars should live within their means, and buy their houses right out, but from what I hear, even Britney Spears still has a mortgage on her 7 million dollar house.

Hell, Michael Jackson was still trying to pay on that Ranch when they took it from him.

Uncle Clarence Ruckus...

How ironic that black people are the ones committing the most hate crimes against Barack Obama. I believe my people are suffering from what I like to call, Uncle Ruckus Complex. Self hating black people who project their ignorant-ass self hate onto their own race. Even after the trash talkin priest and Jesse Jackson wanting to "cut the niggas nuts off" there is yet another African-American culprit in the plot to hate on Obama. This time, to my utter disbelief, it's Clarence Thomas of the Supreme Court. He is claiming that Obama's presidency shouldn't be valid due his "questionable citizenship". What a fucking dick this guy is. I can remember as a kid seeing this same dude on T.V. defending himself in a sexual harrassment charge on Capitol Hill. He told some chick "hey baby, there's a pubic hair in my Coke." Whatever the fuck that was supposed to mean, I don't know, but he said it. Allegedly...Anyway, what do you hope to accomplish by doing this Clarence Thomas? Piss off Obama? First of all, unless you want blood in the streets, Obama ain't goin anywhere. Secondly, since you've pissed off the man, he'll probably find someone to replace you then have you erased. Third, you told a chick "there's a pubic hair in my Coke"! You're lucky to still have a job you fuckin asshole! My people are a hot ass mess

Happy Feet 2: The Coming Out Party

Let's see. Umm. Okay. Not really sure how to start this one off. So there are these two penguins in China. And they love each other very much. And they're gay. Apparently these two fabulous dudes (yeah it's the males) have been snatchin up eggs and replacing them with stones in hopes that the other straight penguins wouldn't notice. It's been disrupting mating season so they have to separate them from the other straight penguins. Apparently they still want to be daddy's, cause it's in their nature, just gay daddy's. Isn't this the best shit you've ever heard?! I hear that they're gettin a lawyer to fight for their parental rights. Then after that they plan on overturning the ruling on Proposition 8 so they can get married. Get it penguins. We live in a free world and don't let them Chineses oppress you. Word on the streets is that Elton John, Clay Aiken and Cher are putting together a benefit concert to raise awareness of the plight of gay penguins all over the world. I'll keep you posted as more news comes my way.

Gay penguins steal eggs from straight couples
(Agencies)Updated: 2008-11-28 13:07

A couple of gay penguins are attempting to steal eggs from straight birds in an effort to become "fathers", it has been reported.

The two penguins have started placing stones at the feet of parents before waddling away with their eggs, in a bid to hide their theft.

But the deception has been noticed by other penguins at the zoo, who have ostracised the gay couple from their group. Now keepers have decided to segregate the pair of three-year-old male birds to avoid disrupting the rest of the community during the hatching season.
A keeper at Polar Land in Harbin, northeast China explained that the gay couple had the natural urge to become fathers, despite their sexuality.

"One of the responsibilities of being a male adult is looking after the eggs. Despite this being a biological impossibility for this couple, the natural desire is still there," a keeper told the Austrian Times newspaper.

"It's not discrimination. We have to fence them separately, otherwise the whole group will be disturbed during hatching time," he added.
There are numerous examples of homosexuality in the animal kingdom, but gay penguins have captured the public's attention more than any other species.

A German zoo provoked outrage from gay lobby groups after attempting to mate a group of gay male penguins with Swedish female birds who were flown in especially to seduce them. But the project was abandoned after the males refused to be "turned", showing no interest in their would-be mates.

In 2002 a couple of penguins at a New York zoo who had been together for eight years were "outed" when keepers noticed that they were both males.

Mess of the Week!!!! 12/1/2008 thru 12/6/2008 Beyonce the ASS!!!

Supposedly, there is a remix of Beyonce’s single, “If I Were a Boy,” floating around here featuring R. Kelly and I just wanna say, what the fuck are you thinking Sasha? Who works with R. Kelly anymore after that porno video when he has his piss in that little girl’s face and his finger in her ass?

Ya’ll motherfuckers didn’t see that. I got the deluxe version. LMAO

Yeah he got off, but we all know exactly what time it is. Weren’t you and Aaliyah friends? Didn’t you see the “Boondocks” episode when R. Kelly is on trial? We all want a number 1 single, but at some point we get so desperate in our search that we become down right messy.

And if this is a lie, or you didn’t approve of his remix, or if it is just someone who sounds like R.kelly, than you are still the mess of the week for that Lil Wayne bite you did with that song, “Diva”. I can’t wait for your new film though.

A 2008 Messy Year in Review: Which Pop Princess Released the Best 2008 Album?

Janet Jackson, Madonna, and Mariah Cannon all released albums in early 2008, and now with the pop queens out the way, the end of 2008 brings with it the return of pop culture's most adored and sometimes scorned pop princesses.

Which album should you get?

P!nk's "Funhouse"

P!nk was first out the gate scoring her first number 1 hit during the fall with "So What". So what is a bad ass, tough girl, arena rocking anthem that will surely go down as a classic. The album its self features less party anthems then the usual P!nk project, but chilling new ballads like Sober", "I Don't Believe You", and "Crystal Ball" will keep you coming back to the "Funhouse" to play.

Quiet as its kept, "Please Don't Leave me" might be the best song of her career.

4 out of 5 stars****

Beyonce's "I'am...Sasha Fierce"

Rihanna topped Beyonce in number 1 singles this year when she scored her T.I assisted 5th with "Live Your Life", but with 2 singles currently in the top 5, Beyonce A.K.A Sasha Fierce is back to even the odds and show herself to still be pop's reigning princess. The album is split into 2 cds. The first is filled with tired piano ballads that you would expect from American Idol losers like Tamyra Gray, and the second is packed with Beyonce's normal club bangers. Each cd has its good songs and its fillers, the 'Sasha Fierce' one being the stronger of the 2, but had Beyonce placed the bland fillers on each in a box to the left, she would have had a sure fire classic. "Single Ladies(Put a Ring on it)", "Halo", the Lil Wayne inspired "Diva", "Radio", and maybe even "Hello" all have potential to be massive hits.

3 1/2 out of 5 stars***1/2

Britney Spears "Circus"

Who would have guessed Britney Spears would actually comeback hard? "Womanizer" became the second number 1 single of her 10 year career in 2008, but it sucked. Even with an excellent video, it is definitely one of the weakest songs on a cd that attacks paparazzi, retreads Britney's usual blow up doll sexuality, and even speaks on other rehab mainstay celebrities in the awesome "If You Seek Amy". Unlike last year's sexy "Blackout" album, "Circus" doesn't sound phoned in, and Britney often trades in her own nasal delivery for a convincing Janet Jackson coo.

Must hear songs include the title track, "Unusual You", "Out from Under", "Kill the Lights, "Shattered Glass", and "My Baby".

4 out of 5 stars

Which album do you leave to collect dust on the shelf at Target?

Christina Aguilera "Keeps Getting Better"

Tired ass Christina Aguilera's greatest hits package leaves much to be desired. First of all, the dirty diva claims she is doing something new as usual, but is mimicking Britney, Madonna, and Kylie who have all done electronica over the past few years with much more creativity. Her hits from that boring ass third album are here, but were they really ever hits?

Baby Jane sit down.

The masterpieces that she does have she remixed so that they feel more like 2007 Britney Spears' rejects, and not the centerpieces of her impressive catalog.

Fuck it, I give her 1 star for just fucking up an amazing song like "Beautiful". I should punch her in the head for fucking that song up. It should have went to P!nk anyway.

If you still need your dose of Xtina download "What a Girl Wants," and "Beautiful".

1 1/2 out of 5 stars*1/2

My World's Aids Day Experince 2008

So I had a friend pass away yesterday, December 1st, which of course was World's Aids Day, and it got me thinking, reflecting and noticing things.

I can honestly say, I have lived a very self destructive life for years now drunk driving, getting robbed, fighting, getting jumped, getting shot at, partying, and basically just totally fucking up. Why am I still here? What is it about me makes God continue to keep me around?

My friend who passed away was only 26. He was the bread winner of his home, and had been since he was in high schoool. He took care of his mother, and was a dad to his younger siblings on down to buying them their school clothes, chasing them up and down when they wanted to hustle in the streets, and keeping food in their mouths.

He was doing something good for others, but would be the one passing on at just 26.

I saw him in Miami a in 2007, and once again in Baltimore this year, but he had moved to the Midwest to handle business. Now I am thinking he wanted us to remember him how he was which is why I won't be attending his funeral.

Instead, what I will be doing is going back to our yearly party zone of Miami, the place where we had the most fun acting like daredevils on South beach, to celebrate him where he was most happy. I am dedicating my life to AIDS awareness and prevention, as well as the prevention of other diseases, and I am leaving my self destructive path behind me.

Rest In Peace...Blackass

Asshole of the Minute: Plaxico Burress

So I know that many people could make this list but a new dumbass is born every minute. So I would like to take this opportunity to call out one Plaxico Burress. NY Giants "star" Wide Receiver. It appears that in an effort to be soooo gangsta, Mr. Burress shot himself while gettin jiggy in da club. Seems as though he was carrying a gun and it accidentally went off in some Manhattan night club. heh hehe heh. Ok. First off you make millions of bucks for being an average player. You know usually people with stupid amounts of money hire others to carry and, if need be, fire their guns. They're called B-O-D-Y-G-U-A-R-D-S. You know the funny thing is that one of his teamates was with him when it happened and was trying to hide the gun. heh hehe heh. So what was the story gonna be? What, did P. Diddy run in the club and shoot the shit up again? C'mon fellas. For real? I'm a start calling him Cheddar Burress (i.e. 8 Mile Cheddar Bob.) What an asshole.

Sexy is sexy, and there are plenty of of older sexy people. Tina Turner has maintained sexy legs for decades and I'll give her that but she is no longer sexy.
In fact, was she ever really sexy?

I gotta be honest folks, she always looked like Mad Max in the face to me!

I say in 2009, we stop with the lies. Tina Turner is a troll, and I may be the one to say it first, but you bitches know you was thinking it!!

Douchebag of the week: Jim Jones

After a few weeks of giving our celebrities a break I thought I would start off this week with a bang. Why Jim Jones you ask? I mean after Jay-Z shat upon him with his "We Fly High/Ballin" diss and the Birg Gang seeming more like a flock of pigeons why pick on poor Jimmy? Well I heard that he is now putting the "N" word and "B" word to rest. "Well, why is that a bad thing Krizz?" Because in place of them he wants to put the names Obama and Michelle respectively. Yes. He did. Example: "Oh yeah, Taz? That's my Obama right there." Or,"I love them phat booty Michelles'." Get it. Yeah, if this is what's poppin in the streets I'm turning in my hood card. So I propose that instead of calling Jim Jones, well, Jim Jones, we should call him ASSHOLE whenever we see him. Example: "Hey asshole, I heard your new single. That joint is hot!" Or,"Hey asshole, I love the dipset. BALLIN!!" Get it. So congrats to you Jim Jones. You are the Douchebag of the Week. Thanks for trying to set us back another 40 years.
