The Doctors is the Most Retarded Daytime TV Show on the Air

Leave a comment

Are you one of those people who calls in sick to work so you can watch crap-ass Daytime TV? If so, maybe you have seen a talk show called The Doctors, featuring former The Bachelor contestant, Dr. Travis Stork.  Long story short, it’s got a panel of “Medical Experts” trying to keep a straight face while discussing “Hot Button” medical topics. I’ve never really watched the show, because I work for a living, but I’ve seen clips of it on You Tube, and here’s my diagnosis: The Doctors is retarded.

These ‘doctors’ are complete quacks. A week or so ago, they were trying to convince anyone who’s stupid enough to take this show seriously that it is not only actually happening but even possible that women are rampantly inserting tampons soaked with VODKA into their snatch for kicks. Not only is this idea absurd to the point of bordering on urban legend but it’s honestly impossible to do. I mean, unless you’re into fisting yourself or there’s some kind of tiny “tampon shoe horn” type device you’d be using, no way.

Today I saw clip on one of the blogs I read regularly where The Doctors are showing you how to properly wipe your ass. I wish I was making this up. What I want to know is who blew a goat to get this show on the air?

Rock Star Quote of the Week: Paul Bostaph of Testament

Leave a comment

“When I joined Slayer and I went on tour with them, there’s one particular memory that sticks out for me. We were already working on the new record and right before we went into the studio I went to a club in Hollywood to see Fu Manchu. I remember this one guy was standing there with his girlfriend and he walked up to me, because he recognized me. He was this tall, buff guy. He’s looking at me and he says, ‘So, I hear you’re the new drummer for Slayer.’ And I said. “Yeah, how are you doing? My name is Paul.’  First he gives me this once over, and then he looks at me like he’s thinking, ‘How could this guy replace Dave Lombardo?’

I remember he reached over, grabbed my bicep and squeezed it to see if I was really strong. Then he looked at me, shook his head and walked away. I remember thinking, ‘Okay, so what I need to do to win over the fans is go to the gym.’ It was the funniest thing because I remember wondering how the size of my bicep related to how well I play the drums. I just stood there in complete shock.”

Obscenely Expensive Corporate Gimmick of the Week: Showtime House!

Leave a comment


Bloody Gorgeous!

I honestly can’t recall ever watching more than one or two episodes, let alone an entire season, of any Showtime series ever in my life. Because I’m really more of an HBO gal. But Metropolitan Home’s Showtime House, a newly renovated town home located in NYC’s exclusive Gramercy Park neighborhood (my dentist has his office there) where each room is decorated to thematically tie-in with a popular Showtime series, has me intrigued to maybe rent the past few seasons of Dexter on DVD. Because, man, that dining room is just rad.

See the various room interiors of Showtime House and read all about the project at this link.
