    Lady Gaga is causing major eye rolling over here. Maybe it is because I'm done with art school and any more over-reaching trying-too-hard look-at-me my-concept-is-so-obvious projects and my eyes will have rolled all the way to 2012 where they will disappear forever in the apocalypse.

    Can we please stop using man/bro as a prefix? Words like mantrum and bromance are bringing American culture just down too many notches...

    @HadwinBabazoid: And they imply that a tantrum is run o' the mill stuff for us wimmenz. Men get their own word for tantrum, so we know it's not the womanly kind.

    I may be reading too much into this, but I have the same problem with phrases like "white trash." I mean, I have a lot of problems with that phrase, but the issue mentioned above is one of them :) #jongosselin

    @DangerMouse: He might have a slight edge with the "thousands and thousands of years" qualifier -- the European-grown diaspora covered lots of the southern hemi.

    Besides, I've lived in your precious hemisphere during winter, and it's a sissy's season compared to the frozen north! Also, Australians are clearly barely reformed criminals who have no need to recharge batteries, they probably just steal them. #jongosselin

Perhaps it's not very chilly in Australia, but I hear it can get quite cold in, say, Patagonia. Regardless, they still have winter in the southern hemisphere. #jongosselin

    Internet Lore FunFact: The dancing baby was initially a seminal Internet meme based on a demo for software 3DStudio Max, using a model from Viewpoint Datalabs, and made famous at NAB by Unreal Pictures, then virally via email.

    Ally caught on fairly "late in the game" as it were - the animation wasn't created for the series.

    But, the meme returned to shill for it's source and promoted hardware manufacturer Wildcat (Intergraph)'s high-end workstations, Kinetix Character Studio and 3DStudio Max at SIGGRAPH in 1998 - as a stuffed toy baby. #jongosselin

    Lady Gaga isn't thinking this giving her hair away to rabid fans thing through. She's either gonna have some stalker fan try to clone her, or someone is going to frame her for a horrible crime by planting her hair at the scene somewhere SVU stylee...

    Lady Gaga obviously is not as paranoid as I am.

    @HidingInCanada: Much more complicated than you think. You can't just hand money over, there are repercussions. Lots of them. He's trying really hard to keep the kids educated and tying strings to the money -- preventing the parents or outside forces from vanishing the whole sum and leaving the kids right back where they started.

    He could hand the money over like candy, but then in 3 years someone would go to the slum and find one of the kids in squalor and wail about how Boyle had deserted them. He's already bought them flats (qualified deeds), handed out lump sums to the parents and set up trusts for the kids. Already one family claims they were wiped out by a dishonest builder and applied to Boyle for money all over again.

    He's trying, and from what I can see, he's trying really hard. #jongosselin

    @Ailatan: A) You said "Kula Shaker" and I was instantly teleported back to 1996.. Thanks!

    B) Sorry but the swastika is an ancient universal symbol that predates even Hinduism. You can see the clockwise or counterclockwise swastika in Hindu temples or Japanese Buddhist or Shinto temples to this day. Now, the Nazi symbol is a very peculiar swastika: tilted precisely 90 degrees counterclockwise. It's thus instantly distinguishable from a "regular" swastika.

    To sum up: old-school, straight-up swastika (pic attached) = good, harmless.

    Tilted Nazi swastika = horrible.

    (If that kid in the Taylor Swift item wanted to draw a Nazi swastika, he got it wrong anyway.)

    Yes, I'm a semiotics nerd + attempt to appear relevant with such fun facts because I often haven't the faintest idea who the celebu-folk in these gossip roundups are. #jongosselin

    @snugbug: I remember this came up once on Worlds Apart, the National Geographic show - an American Jewish family went to live with an Indian family, and saw a swastika painted on the house. The Jewish dad, knowing his stuff, said "Oh, that's not the Nazi symbol, is it - of course the swastika is an ancient Hindu symbol..." To which the Indian father said something like, "Yes, it is, but the Indians and the Aryans are linked in history, so we consider the Germans our brothers." Uh, awkward... #jongosselin
