There's an important lesson to learn from this video of comedian Ron White at a Rascal Flatts show: If you're gonna storm the stage at a concert and dance like you're being electrocuted -- zip your pants up first. It's better for everyone.

Sarah Palin, Nightmare Of The Centrist Male McCain Fan With Actual Brains* [Angry White Men]
Posted: September 11th, 2008, 6:36pm CDT by Moe
Tags: angry white Men
Former Republican Senator Lincoln Chafee gave a speech today and got a lot of laughs when he said this about Sarah Palin: "People were coming into my office, phone calls were flooding in, e-mails were coming in, 'I just sent money to Obama, I couldn't sleep last night' — from the left. To see this cocky wacko up there." Now, Chafee was never that convincing a Republican, but here's the thing: neither, for the vast majority of his career anyway, was John McCain. And if Palin energizes the Republican base, she's sure as hell alienating a huge portion of the John McCain base. Let's call them "Angry White Men With Working Brain Cells."* My brother is one; he used to have a mild hardon for McCain; this morning I got an email from him about some Palin nightmare he had last night followed an hour later by an email from the Obama campaign informing me he'd donated a hundred bucks. He is part of the niche that gets riled up not over the idea bombing Iran, or even dumfuckedly joking about bombing Iran, but becomes suddenly borderline rabid over stories like this (as told to Bob Woodward.)"I think we need to do something to get engaged with these guys," Fallon said. Iraq shared a 900-mile border with Iran, and he needed guidance and a strategy for dealing with the Iranians.
"Well," Bush said, "these are assholes."
Fallon was stunned. Declaring them "assholes" was not a strategy. Lots of words and ideas were thrown around at the meeting, especially about the Iranian leaders. They were bad, evil, out of touch with their people. But no one offered a real approach. No one wanted to touch diplomatic engagement.Liberals self-servingly think of themselves as the masters of the "Working Brain Cells" niche. We buy into the myth that Daily Show watchers are so much better-informed than everyone else. This is deeply self-destructive. Democrats are on average no better-informed than Republicans, and the political group with the highest percentage of "highly-informed" voters is registered independents. In addition, almost twice as many men than women fall into the "highly informed" camp, and men have long leaned Republican. And when liberals cave to defeatism in the face of all the shameless falsehoods and mendacious lowest-common-denominator Roviananities, they risk pissing off the very niche of McCain-friendly independents who so badly want to help them right now.
All of which is why it's so counterproductive to worry about shit like Obama's "lipstick on a pig" gaffe. It was not absolutely not a gaffe! In fact, I think it was intentional — not intentional in the sense that Barack Obama intended for the right to idiotically mix up their antecedents when anyone who passed fourth grade grammar (and the AWMWWBC do respect grammar!) (also: phonics) could tell you he was NOT CALLING HER PIG — but intentional in the sense that it was a clever bit of worldplay capitalizing on the insipid "lipstick meme." And in that sense, it was funny. An AWMWWBC would certainly think so, I think; he's sure as hell not going to be offended by anything other than the disingenuous PC fakeness of the ensuing controversy, though I'd bet right now he's stopped reading stories on the matter. He's not answering calls from Zogby either. He's too angry! Which is funny, because the AWMWWBC always thought Barack Obama was pretty impressive (if not quite ready) he probably found Michelle a bit on the angry side, probably just because she reminds him of some girl who told him off once and was right. (There is also the matter of the AWMWWBC worshiping the Hitch, who for whatever reason detests Michelle.) But whatever, all that was before the AWMWWBC got an earful of Sarah Palin's pitbull. Suddenly Michelle Obama is looking pretty sweet.
*It would generally befit Gawker to employ a term like "Non-Retards" to the same effect, but I'm refraining here for obvious reasons!

It’s no secret that celebrity goes a long way in getting special privileges. And yesterday (August 17), the Jonas Brothers got to visit the White House during their time in Washington DC.
And it sounds like frontman Joe was the most eager of the bunch to check out the President’s pad, opting to go ahead of his brothers Nick and Kevin who met up with him later.

Hated Flack Is Secret Hipster [Stuff White People Like]
Posted: June 25th, 2008, 4:45pm CDT by Pareene
Tags: stuff white people like
So. We were just reminded of something else about Howard Wolfson, the Clinton communications manager who did not get along with the media. He's totally cool because he's into indie music! Seriously, he sends these playlists to his journalist "friends" (of which he has increasingly few!). The Observer mentioned his annual top-ten list of indie groups and added that "Mr. Wolfson says the darker driving hours are when he allots time to listen to music and to clear his head." Sad! He's probably driving around the beltway right now, doing the whole loop with Exile in Guyville on repeat. Does anyone have one of his playlists laying around?

Betty White, 86, brings lots of laughs to the Late Late Show
Posted: April 11th, 2008, 12:38pm CDT by Celebitchy
Tags: Betty white
Former Golden Girl Betty White, 86, was on the Late Late Show with Craig Ferguson yesterday and her interview made me laugh out loud several times. Her lines were scripted jokes, but she delivered them so well it hardly mattered. I was pretty surprised when I looked up her age for this article, because I assumed she was in her 70s. She looks great and she still has very good comic timing.White brought out a bunch of receipts in a shoe box and told Ferguson she wanted to get her taxes done before the deadline. Ferguson asked “What about the interview?”
White said “What does it matter? You usually just talk about yourself. It’s ‘Blah Blah I’m so funny. Blah blah I had a penis enlargement.’”
Ferguson told her he had a problem with her doing her taxes on the show, and she said “Do you want me to get audited by the IRS? I don’t want them taking me up in their ship and shoving all kinds of weird probes in me.”
Ferguson asked “Is there anyway I can help you get this all finished?”
“What would you know about taxes? You’re an illegal immigrant… To me you’ll always be ‘Craig Ferguson, the dirty French bastard.’”
“Betty, you don’t have to be stressed about your taxes, I got an extension.”
“There you go again about your penis enlargement.”
Craig said they better wrap it up, and Betty asked if she could plug something before she left.
Craig said she’s going to film a Disney movie called The Proposal with Sandra Bullock, and she said that’s true, but “actually I wanted to plug that Will Smith movie, Bad Boys, it’s playing on Showtime right now. And it’s a hell of a lot better than this crap fest.”
“He’s great Will Smith, isn’t he?”
“Yes he is. I’ve never had him.”
Here’s the interview, thanks to monkeyboy on Redlasso.
Betty White is shown in the header on 6/15/07 at the daytime Emmy Awards, thanks to PRPhotos.

Everything I Learned About New York Media I Learned At Columbia [Columbia University]
Posted: March 10th, 2008, 10:07am CDT by harlan
Tags: Blue white
Full disclosure: I graduated Barnard College in '05, and while there, wrote for the campus newspaper, The Columbia Spectator.
Columbia University prides itself in being in the city of New York; that's literally their slogan. Even if Morningside Heights is Manhattan lite, there are very real elements of New York living there. For one, with Barnard, the female to male ratio is two to one, giving Columbia females a head start on real life New York dating. For two, Columbia student journalists take themselves as seriously as real New York journalists do. From the years I was at the Columbia Spectator, two reporters went onto Newsweek, one is tenured at the Washington Post, someone else is at Fortune and another has his own blog at Slate. That's why the latest campus controversy over the Bwog, the blog of the campus publication the Blue & White is no surprise. A tipster writes about upheaval on the site: The new editor is alienating writers, the Bwog has lost its focus, along with its campus cachet. Sound familiar?At Columbia, the Spectator is like the New York Times. Yes, there are problems, institutional and otherwise, but it remains the must-read campus publication. The Blue & White is like the New Yorker, containing book reviews, profiles of campus characters, witty asides, but only read, and written by, an elite group of effete students. When the Blue & White launched the Bwog the year after I graduated, it soon became the Gawker of Columbia.
Campus drama is a bubble, so media drama within a campus is perhaps too insular to take seriously. The tipster's complaint &mdash that the Bwog has resorted to criticizing campus publications &mdash is old news. Josie Swindler (one of my former editors at the Spec) did a fascinating piece on race at the Spectator for the Blue & White in 2006. Swindler took the issue as seriously as the New Yorker would writing about the Times.
But according to the tipster, things are down a notch on the Bwog. The site mocks the Barnard Bulletin's soduku box. (By the way, has anyone noticed the Post's word scramble is totally sucking lately?)
I emailed a friend who graduated after me about to ask about this and she said, "it sounds like a group of sore-losers who want some bigger media attention ... the Bwog was originally almost purely vicious and intended to criticize other students and other publications ... things change when editors change, esp at campus publications."
The bad news, tipster, is that you might be a sore loser. The good news is that Columbia has prepared you for the real world. Or at least the internet part of the real world.

Is The Whitest Kid We Know Actually Korean? [Race Is A Construct]
Posted: November 30th, 2007, 3:15pm CST
Tags: mighty white of you
For a while now, we've been asking readers to submit pictures and answers to a couple of questions that serve to answer the question: Who Is the Whitest Kid You Know? There are a couple frontrunners including Angela C., a goth teenager with white pancake makeup and our inbox is filled with kind of generically white preppy dudes. But this is a contest, (the winner gets roundtrip tickets and accommodations to Portland, OR, statistically the whitest city in America) and so we needed someone to elevate the play. Cory Choy, a Korean-American, did just that. He even included a picture of himself with Diplomats rapper Freaky Zeeky as a means of contrast.1. What is a French Cuff, as it pertains to denim?
I haven't purchased a shirt since sixth grade, and unfortunately
promotional tee shirts don't come equipped with cuffs, French or
otherwise.2. What is your favorite Lil' Wayne lyric?
After reviewing Lil Wayne lyrics on google and consulting a few
rapper clients, I've decided on this lyric: "I oozed it in her coochie
when she got in my Ja'causezi" It's the most socially redeeming.3. Fairfield or Greenwich, and why?
Fairfield Virginia?
Think you or someone you know can outwhite Cory Choy? Send your nominations to whitestkidcontest@gawker.com

This website that reviews Manhunt gay sex-seeking profiles finds Edmund White's a bit lacking, but we admire its straightforwardness. We assume there's intended to be an undercurrent of shame-casting to the endeavor of identifying and mocking a dude's online sex profile. Umm, Ed White not only wrote The Joy of Gay Sex in 1977, he's a Genet biographer. He's evolved way beyond shame. We should all be so lucky. [Hunters and Gatherers]
