Politics: Here’s a video of our hero, “The Rent is Too Damn High” guy

“Listen! Someone’s stomach churned little child stomach just growled. Did you hear it?” Alvin Greene hasn’t become a total meme yet, but this karate expert just might. source

Politics: Alvin Greene sticking to those talking points a little too much

So, Lawrence O’Donnell is our hero. Faced with the halting Alvin Greene on Monday night’s show, he starts off questioning by jokingly asking, “Are you a witch?” Given the opportunity to basically own the conversation, Alvin Greene completely flubs it, by answering that “DeMint started the recession.” He does the same thing for the next question. And the one after that. Dude, O’Donnell was throwing softballs your way. SOFTBALLS! source

Music: FYI: @50cent is officially the best Twitter user we’ve ever seen

I just looked at kanye page what the fuck kind a spaced out tweets are those. fuck that I aint never looking at that shit againSat Aug 28 16:36:31 via ÜberTwitter50cent
50cent

Dear Twitter users: You’re not trying hard enough. If you really want to be great at this, you need to do them with the speed and constant entertainment value the Eminem protege has been rocking the site. The Vitamin Water beneficiary has been rocking the tweets himself for a little less than two weeks (after his management was doing a very crappy job at it), and since then, he’s pretty much become the single most refreshing new Tweeter in a long time. This guy makes adversary Kanye West look like a wannabe. source

Offbeat: Disgruntled flight attendant’s mom: It was a “very small meltdown”

I don’t think he’s going to be in trouble very long. I think he just had a very small meltdown, and I think he deserves to be able to have that meltdown if you saw the egg on his head where he got smacked.
Diane Slater • Discussing her son’s memorable meltdown. Flight attendant Steven Slater’s quitting – getting into a fight with a passenger, grabbing a couple of beers, and escaping through the plane’s inflatable chute – was perhaps the most bizarrely random thing to ever happen on an airplane, ever. It’s good to know that his mom has his back on this, but she may understand it better than most – she’s a retired flight attendant. source

Offbeat: Washing machine + brick = Somehow the funniest thing ever

Poor washing machine. It didn’t even know what hit it. The key moment here hits at the 55-second mark, and it somehow adds a human element to the nature of washing machine destruction. LOL. It just turns into a jittering mess. source

World: Israeli diplomats: Every day is “Casual Friday” for them right now

cause Israeli diplomats don’t think they’re getting paid wages on par with other government agencies.
reaction They decided to protest the conditions … by wearing jeans and sandals to work. source

» Our thoughts: If they really want to punish them, they should wear socks with the sandals. Though that might be a little cruel and unusual.

Offbeat: We don’t believe this dude’s shirt for some reason

We may not be giving this guy enough credit, but after he and his sons got arrested for getting in a fight with some dude over RELIGION (in that shirt!!!!), something tells us our first instincts are the right ones. source

World: No. 1 reason for weak Japanese leadership: A taste for ugly shirts

Just 24 percent of the Japanese approve of Prime Minister Yukio Hatoyama. Why? Some suggest it’s because he apparently doesn’t know how to dress himself. source
