When pressed, Palombo, who is Hispanic, described the shooter as a black man with a bald head.

The Latino blames black guy gets arrested. Trump blames black guy....

When I was a young alternative person, it was shameful to like Britney. I’m glad I can love her with abandon now.

Unfortunate metaphor, or inspired?

Calvin Klein? Who cares about that butthead?

At least with Biff we had hover skateboards and three second microwave pizzas. All we have with Trump is a newfound loathing of scotch tape.

In true Jez fashion, the top post is shitting on a dead person. Stay classy.

That’s like two genres. 2016 was breaking into sub genres by now.

That NBC internet web reporter must’ve been smokin’ “Da Good Stuff”....

And John Wetton, the lead singer of Asia. You know, “It was the heat of the moment...” Nobody?

Guys like Frank Sinatra, Elvis Presley (at what age did Priscilla start living with him?), and recently David Bowie had…

Nothing like the death of a famous male musician to remind you that the overwhelming majority of famous male musicians are/were either sex offenders, woman beaters, or otherwise truly awful people. “Brown Eyed Handsome Man” and “Too Much Monkey Business” still own though.
