Urban Outfitters ripped off my Johnny Cupcakes shirt.

The Omorosa Experiment

realitystars.jpg

Maybe the only industry that is as morally questionable as the advertising industry is the reality TV industry. Personally I am constantly dumbfounded by the number of crazies there are in the world based on the ever growing number of reality shows that are being populated by them. Just think of all the crazies that don't make the cut or (shudder) are actually deemed too crazy to be subjected to the experience?

The Morning News has a fascinating article about what goes into selecting reality contestants. They interview a psychologist, formerly under the employ of such shows as The Apprentice and Survivor, whose job it was to help cast those shows, assuring that their personalities were combustible enough to make good TV but not so unstable that they would go off and kill themselves or others if they couldn't deal with being "fired" or "voted off the island."

Reality stars who have coped with the experience with varying degrees of success like The Apprentice's Omorosa and Sam and Hell's Kitchen's Ralph are interviewed (all pictured above). Interestingly Apprentice contestants sign a three year non-disclosure agreement which these two contestants are still within but that doesn't stop Sam from talking openly.

It's a great read for anyone who has ever wondered where they get these people from.

So this is why I despise advertising agencies...

Got an e-mail from an agency a couple weeks ago. Not gonna say who it is, just that they're in Florida, and they have a car account. They contacted me to see if we'd make them a custom version of the Turbo piece on our site for their car client, and some of the dealers. I gave them a price and waited for them to call back.

Hadn't heard from them, so I decided to call back to see what the deal was. The account person that I had spoken with before told me they contacted MY MANUFACTURER, who I list on my site, to get a cost directly from them, if their agency revised the design...right now it's on hold. I fucking hate advertising people.

- Saturday's SNL weekend update. ok, not great. I'm just really into Amy Poehler.
- There's a show on VHI called Web Junk 20, basically the stuff everyone talks about on the web, but a month later.
- Outside of that Nigerian guy that wants to send me a million dollars, I thought free money was a myth. Was I wrong?
- Apparently Isaac Mizrahi doesn't know he's gay. Well if anyone's gonna drag you out of the closet, it's Scarlett.
- And here's an interesting list...top 10 conspiracy theories, including the old fake moon landing, and kfc?

Live Feed

SternyPaperFinal.jpg

ok, I know I'm a bit obsessed about this recently, but it's just really interesting to me. Right now, there's apparently a live feed to the Stern show. It's killing him that he doesn't have a live audience anymore, so now he's givin' it away for free...only took eight days.

404 Error

Whoops! We're not sure if it was your fault or ours (probably yours, we're good that way) but you've encountered a FATAL ERROR!!! Or at least, a pretty grumpy one.

Specifically the Latvians who run our server are telling us in a weird accent "Smarty error: [in evaluated template line 5]: syntax error: unrecognized tag 'mtfeed' (Smarty_Compiler.class.php, line 580), Comrade!". Ain't life a bitch.

If you want to vent, email our slacker of a webmaster. Otherwise, we'd suggest going back, using search, or clicking around aimlessly on this page like a moron.

Have fun.
