END OF THE WEEK:
Welcome to the first "End of the Week" for 2012! We have lots to get to, from newborn children and presidential races, to pizza commercials and female liberation, so let's just get right down to it. Here are my picks for the best of the past seven days:
Prank Caller of the Week: Some Guy Named Dan
for this prank phone call he made to C-SPAN Wednesday morning following the New Hampshire primaries, asking Chairman of the state's Republican Party, Wayne MacDonald, whether Mitt Romney has a big penis.
That phone call was so wrong. After all, Romney doesn't have a big penis. He's just a big dick. Speaking of New Hampshire...
Stories of the Week:
-The Actual Story of the Week: Mitt Romney Wins New Hampshire Primary In Decisive Fashion
At this point, the race is basically Romney's to lose. All that's left is for Newt Gingrich and Rick Perry to disintegrate the Republican party with negative attack ads that will give Democrats ammo for November, and we should be set.
-The Tiger Woods Saga of '09 Memorial Story of the Week: Snoop Dogg Arrested For Possession of Marijuana
My whole innocence has been shattered.
Female Liberator of the Week: Judd Appatow
who single-handily freeing women comedian's oppression from not being funny after winning the Critics' Choice Award of Best Comedy for "Bridesmaids," a film in which he executive-produced, and saying "F*** you!" to Jerry Lewis for his infamous comment made in 1997 about women not being funny at all. Although, it's kind of weird to say it when you go up on a stage with only other guys. But, whatever.
Video of the Week: "Pizza Boomerang"
(This video was uploaded on YouTube in late December, but it started getting hits this week, so it counts)
I'm not sure what a failed suicide attempt and having your penis cut off has to do with pizza, but I am in no way complaining about it.
Interruption of the Week: Ringing Cellphone Disrupts New York Philharmonic Performance
Laugh all you want at the anger caused by the ringing cellphone, but in the world of symphony orchestras, you might as well just have torn apart the entire stage.
Person of the Week: Blue Ivy Carter
who began her quest for world domination this week as the first daughter as the most powerful couple in hip hop, Beyonce and Jay-Z. First, she personally given a first-class luxury birth over the weekend inside her Lennox Hill hospital room courtesy of the demands of her parents. Then, on Thursday, she made history as the youngest person ever to appear on a Billboard chart thanks to her credited "verse" in her father's newest song "Glory" which featured her coos and cries for nearly a minute's time. Did I mention this all happened in the first five days of her existence? It should be interesting to see how she follows up to the start of her life in the years ahead.
And that's the way it was! Enjoy the rest of your Sunday, everybody!
Sincerely,
Your pal: mj15
