Reading the Michael Lohan thing... I am now absolutely convinced that there is a Nobel Prize awarded to the Worst Human Being on Earth, and he's desperately gunning for it.
As much as I despise Carrie Prejean and believe her tongue should be cut out, I kinda feel for that girl (or at least her mother) to be in the room when that was shown. I would say "low blow," but it's really not nearly as much of a bitch move as half of the stunts she's pulled. Lesson: nobody wins when everybody behaves like a B.
Apply lesson to Michael Lohan/John Gosselin fuckery. #britneyspears
I definitely read 'Mad Max: Fury Road' as 'Mad Men: Fury Road', and had this great image of everyone in their suits hurling flaming highball glasses at each other. #britneyspears
@Crackers In Bed: Ha! I'm thinking that if Matthew Weiner combines the two ideas, he has a great episode for later in the 1960s, when everyone at Sterling Cooper discovers hallucinogens. #britneyspears
I just feel like there's no hope for LL left. Even her parents have given up and are now publicly justifying their protective actions to remove responsibility for what she has/will become. #alecbaldwin
Man, who is Lindsay Lohan to me? No one, I don't care about Lindsay Lohan. She made some okay movies, but it's not like she was some undiscovered Meryl Streep or something.
AT THE SAME TIME: I would happily take thirty grand to kidnap Michael Lohan and drop him off in some tiny Nepalese village where there's no phone or internet, and promise the villagers ten thousand dollars if they never let him leave. #alecbaldwin
Dane Cook has so many mixed metaphors going on in his statement that I'm not entirely sure of his point. But as I recall, Mr.Cook had the singular distinction of being in a movie with Jessica Simpson, so maybe he shouldn't be pointing fingers about people doing crappy movies?
@FireflyinJuly: I was tempted to go for the passive-aggressive "I'm just SAYIN'"...but rejected the idea. If there was ever a statement that didn't need a qualifier, it's the one that I just made. #alecbaldwin
@Hooplehead: I think he was doing it because so many guys were mocking him and his crappy movies - only to come out and make crappy movies themselves, like David Cross. I have never much cared for Dane Cook as a comic, but I have to agree with him on this point. #alecbaldwin
@telecomic the thoughtful red panda: I get why he's saying it. I simply disagree that someone who's made a career of making any crap movie that came along has a leg to stand on when it comes to criticizing anyone else's choice of projects. He simply has no credibility in this department. Those who live in glass houses should not be so quick to throw stones, and Cook's critics at least have the distinction of having done work that didn't stink to high heaven at one point. Whereas I am at a loss to name a single Cook vehicle that didn't scream "waste of time" to me. #alecbaldwin
@Hooplehead: wait, wait! He was really good on that... um... he had that funny bit about... well... hey, do you remember when he spiked up his hair, and wore a wrist band on his forearm? That was cool. #alecbaldwin
As for Levi buying his baby son hockey gear: my son had his first baseball mitt by the time he was three weeks old, so I get it. It's just something dads (or grandfathers, in our case) do for their sons and grandsons. It's a guy thing.
He eventually grew into it and used it for years - it was even signed by David Wright. Yum, David Wright... #alecbaldwin
@gerbilsoutofexile...is cheap and easy: Sure, but why does a "guy thing" have to be about assuming the son will be into 'manly sports culture'? What if his son actually wants to be a ballet dancer, a pianist or a chess player for his leisure activity? There's always something a little too pushy about buying infants sports paraphernalia in my mind, not to mention the sexist aspects, since few men buy these things for their daughters (who very well might grow up to play hockey or soccer or baseball, etc.) #alecbaldwin

@Hippopotame wants a star, dagnabbit!!!: My husband comes from a long line of rabid Phillies fans; my father-in-law, 70 years old, still plays in a league. And Ian has had a talent for baseball since he was tiny. If he had not wanted to touch his glove (but he did and he's quite talented) and had other interests as well (he plays the trumpet and loves to read), that would have been fine.
Also, see boobookitteh above: her nieces were also included in their family's baseball tradition. #alecbaldwin
Wow! Coincidence! I removed Oprah's Karaoke Challenge from my TiVo - just because (it looked like a cheaper version of AI which I don't watch either). #alecbaldwin
I've seen Dane Cook do stand up. I've seen David Cross do stand up. Who do you think was better? Take your time with this one. Really feel it out. #alecbaldwin
Confession time. Dane Cook is from my hometown. He apparently used to work at the video store close to my house, so I probably met him hundreds of times. So, on behalf of my hometown, I just want to say, "I'm sorry." #alecbaldwin
