LOL Jerks: Jon Gosselin & Hailey Glassman

Tracie — Wed, 04 Nov 2009 15:40:00 EST

On last night's Entertainment Tonight, Jon Gosselin chose Hailey Glassman's interview with Mary Hart as his opportunity to "break up" with her. Mary's WTF faces were gold. We present to you our version of the interview: LOL Jerks.

And if you're interested, here's the interview.

Even though they're "breaking up" on TV, Hailey keeps laughing.

Tomorrow, Jon storms out.

Blogger Annoyed By Drunk, Pole-Dancing, Workaholic Women Writers

Megan — Wed, 11 Mar 2009 16:40:00 EDT

Blogger Debra Dickerson is tired of young feminists talking about the present and future state of abortion rights as if they actually care about them.

Dickerson, who once denied Barack Obama the right to describe himself as black, says, in her blog on MotherJones:

Today's feminists need to blog less and work more. If women want reproductive choice to remain more than rhetoric, they'd better stop assuming these clinics will be there when they need them.

Apparently, we should also stop appreciating irony, like when a blogger tells other bloggers to stop writing so much.

But wait: Debra has a plan.

But you young chicks maybe need to go the Northern Exposure route, sending folks to med school in exchange for a few years running an abortion clinic.

Question: Who exactly is she talking about? Perhaps this will clear up the confusion!

Pole-dancing, walking around half-naked, posting drunk photos on Facebook, and blogging about your sex lives ain't exactly what we previous generations thought feminism was. We thought it was about taking it to the streets.

Yes, critiquing the feminist "cred" of other women is exactly like taking it to the streets. (I'm sure Debra was the only feminist currently writing on the web today who was on the Mall in 2004, handing out tens of thousands of stickers for NARAL during the March for Women's Lives.)

She adds:

Tell me exactly what today's feminists are doing for the struggle. Besides posting disses against old chicks like me. You got that covered.

Okay, Debra: Shall we start here?

Stuff, Hug, Play

Maria — Thu, 02 Oct 2008 09:40:00 EDT

Oh dear lord. We found this Superman "Snuggler" child's toy on the internet with a very suspicious looking mouth. Like, obviously-the-mouth-of-a-sex-doll suspicious. It really gives new meaning to the toy's tagline "Stuff, Hug, Play," doesn't it? Lolz all around! But of course, like most viral things that illicit giggles out of college-aged boys, this thing was too good to be true. Using the same level of internet skills as the infamous Palin hacker (which is to say that we just Googled the toy name) we discovered the true origins of the Superman "Snuggler" sex doll. Click on the image to see the original. [Random Good Stuff]

LOLVogue: Teh Billee Goatz Gruff (And Contest!)

Dodai — Tue, 30 Sep 2008 14:00:00 EDT

Someone was smoking some really strong shit when they came up with the Burning-Man-esque "Natural High" photo shoot in the October issue of Vogue. Three lithe, billy goat-ish moddles are on a rocky landscape, under a blazing sun, wearing huge shaggy furs, and the magazine calls it "beastly beauty." Add "hooflike heels" and you've got a lurid fairy tale — without the bridge, troll or moral. It's hallucinatory and ridiculous. But! I mock because I love! Which is why, inspired by LOLCats, here is another episode of LOLVogue. After the jump: We're in ur magazeen, puttin werdz on ur moddles. (And! A contest!)

OMG. OH NOES. THIS MODDLE HAZ NO CAPSHUN. RITE A SUGGESSHUN IN TEH COMMINTZ!!!11!! TEH WINNR GITZ A CHEEZBURGR. SRSLY.

LOLAudience: Paul Janka & John Fitzgerald Page On Dr. Phil

Tracie — Thu, 08 May 2008 15:30:00 EDT

Yesterday, two notable specimens of boy-foe material, Paul Janka and John Fitzgerald Page, appeared on Dr. Phil to let talk about their big egos in front of a female-only audience. The audience reactions were so priceless — lots of disgust and appalled laughter — that today, one of you asked us to give the images the LOL treatment, an "offer" we couldn't refuse. The results, after the jump.

LOLVogue: Good Help Is Hard To Find

dodai — Mon, 26 Nov 2007 14:00:00 EST

Welcome back to another episode of LOLVogue, in which we create a mashup of LOLcats and the latest issue of Vogue. The December issue, with lovely Penelope Cruz on the cover, includes an accessories spread called "Precious Gemma" modeled by Gemma Ward, in which the model is "doing" household chores. Is she acting out one of Anna Wintour's fantasies? Does Ms. Wintour want a lithe, twiglike little urchin to clean her home? Is Anna Wintour Miss Hannigan? We'll never know. In the meantime, after the jump: We're in ur magazeen, puttin werds on ur moddles.
