Once A Douche Bag...

God bless Tivo….I almost missed this one.

Rosie O’Donnell recently starred in the latest Hallmark weeper Riding the Bus With My Sister. Of course, it’s easy to be the star when you’re also the producer, but for now, we’re bypassing the fact that the anti-everything behemoth bought her role.

The travesty was the acting.

Rosie O'Donell as a mentally handicapped woman was about as believable as Rosie O’Donell as a pole-vaulter. Rosie was able to step out of her own bipolar, obsessive-compulsive, schizophrenic, manic-depression to grace us with a performance that was…well, quite honestly…retarded.

To prep for her return, Rosie purchased a book on how to mock the handicap and parlayed every stereotype imaginable into the character. Rosie makes the handicapped out to be loud people who grin all the time and refuse to wear anything that isn’t yellow. It was an insulting performance, even for an attention-whore like Rosie.

And it’s not like there aren’t handicapped actors out there. Marlee Matlin. That kid who played Corky on Life Goes On. Jessica Simpson. Plenty of people out there that can portray the handicapped without making them look goofy. But Rosie has always been a douche bag who demands that it’s her way or no way. And since it’s her money, then she gets to play the special kid on the bus.

The good news is that 10 million more people decided to watch Desperate Housewives instead of Rosie’s self-aggrandizing. And a Hallmark movie is like the Super Bowl. You only watch it for the commercials. So hopefully, Rosie’s damage was limited to several million ladies over 80. Still, if I bore any handicap other than marriage, red hair and a flat ass, then I’d want to run her over in a mini-bus.

Air Douche Bags

Who knew that Nike was the Jimmy Choos of running shoes. So haughty is the swoosh that they’ve cancelled a contract with Sears allowing the department store to carry their brand.

Nike was never thrilled about their sneakers winding up on the blue-collar feet of Sears shoppers. But they were petrified of the true blue-collar shoppers at K-Mart getting their po, dirty hands on the latest Air Force Ones.

Sears recently purchased K-Mart and is helping the old chain get back on its feet by supplying stores with higher end merchandise from known companies like Craftsman and Kenmore. Nike has no such desire to affiliate it's brand with the unwashed masses. Though made in Korean sweatshops by children paid pennies by the day, the douche bags at Nike think their shoes are too good to be sold under a flashing blue light.

But where else but K-Mart would you expect to find shoes like this?

Runaway Douche Bag

John Mason looked to be May’s Scott Peterson.

His fiancée went out for a jog. She never came back. He called the police five hours later.

This guy had guilt written all over him.

Turns out that John Mason’s not such a bad guy. It’s the fiancée that’s a total douche bag.

Jennifer Wilbanks did go out for a jog. And she jogged straight to the bus stop, where she climbed aboard a bus and took off, leaving her husband-to-be and her family and friends without a word. Hours later, alerts went out and hundreds of volunteers began searching for the missing woman. Volunteers even crawled through sewer drains hoping to find something.

A few days later, Wilbanks turns up in New Mexico, broke and upset, claiming that she had been kidnapped. But her story quickly fell apart and she admitted that she left her groom due to the stress of the wedding and to have some time alone.

Her audacious affair was to feature 14 bridesmaids, 14 groomsmen and over 600 guests. It was a pompous event from the start and no one should feel sorry for Wilbanks. No husband to be ever said, "You know what? I think we need more bridesmaids." Or, "I don’t think 200 people are enough for the guest list. Let’s make it 600."

No, Jennifer Wilbanks had no more stress on her than any other bride-to-be. My wife planed a beautiful wedding that came with plenty of stressful moments. But when she got stressed out, she didn’t disappear. She just added more things to the gift registry.

And if Wilbanks thinks life was stressful before, she’s in for a helluva surprise. Charges are being strongly considered and the wedding is off for now. And those volunteers who crawled through sewage aren’t going to forgive the stressed out bride anytime soon. They were quick to stand up on camera and claim that Wilbanks was as selfish and self-centered as they come.

And if this douche bag still needs a moment alone, then a little jail time would be perfect.

Dawson's Douche Bag

Per my wife, Katie Holmes is a douche bag.

The former princess of prude who teased all the boys of Dawson’s Creek is now giving it up to all the boys of Hollywood. Katie broke off her engagement with American Pie’s Chris Klein so that she could hook up with Pearl Harbor’s Josh Hartnett. Then she moved on up to the pinnacle of celebrity boyfriends – TOM CRUISE.

So far she has snagged three of the five men on my wife’s “wish list.” Should Holmes claim the black guy from CSI and Ben Affleck (circa 1998), then my wife will have no one left to think about during sex but me.

The House of Douche Bags

My wife has a few special talents – hors d'ouvers, bowling, Kama Sutra pages 23, 77, 92 and 140. She’s also great at balancing the checkbook and picking out things like shams and valances (which may be styles of shoes but I honestly have no idea). But she’s not an actress. No movies. No TV. No infomercials.

She played Dorothy in the elementary school's production of the Wizard of Oz, and my God can she bring on the drama over forgetting to pick up the dry cleaning. But can she act? No. So should I ever write a screenplay and make a movie, I would love to have her mental and financial support. But I would never put her in the picture. It would be downright cruel, both to viewers and to my wife alike, to expose such a weakness.

David Duchovny isn’t so nice.

Duchovny is married to actress Tea Leoni and Tea Leoni is a bore to watch. Her voice is weak and exasperated and she always looks like she just smelled a fart. She’s sexy, if you're into the meth addict look. She brings a level of excitement to her movies so low that you’d prefer her role be filled by a fish. A dead fish.

The good news is that the number of movies she’s been in is pretty low. After enduring a horribly horrible leading lady performance by Tea in Spanglish this weekend, I toned down my frustration by convincing myself that this would be the last of her sleepy acts. The bad news is that her husband now considers himself a director. A director of a movie that he also wrote. And who does the douche bag cast as the star of his new movie The House of D? Tea Leoni as the bereaved single mother.

It’s great to throw someone you love a bone, but the interesting cast that makes up this movie is now stuck with Tea. Rupaul would have been more convincing as a bereaved single mom, but apparently Duchovny’s wedding vows pomised to love, honor and employ. I can’t say I enjoy seeing Hollywood couples break up, but the sooner this guy sleeps with Angelina Jolie, the better.

You're Fired....and Under Arrest.

He’s a little bit hot-headed. As a matter of fact, every conversation with The Apprentice candidate Chris Shelton has gone something like this….

Donald Trump: Chris, you can’t be a bankrupt gabillionaire like me if you keep losing your temper. Do you think you have an anger problem?

Chris: NO I DON’T HAVE A FRIGGIN’ ANGER PROBLEM! GOD! I HATE ALL OF YOU! STOP LOOKING AT ME! I’M NOT YELLING!

Chris is still on the show but his days are officially numbered. Apparently, he’s temperamental off-camera as well, getting thrown in the slammer this weekend for flipping out at a hotel bar. A real estate millionaire, Chris went postal about a $20 cover charge at the bar.

A millionaire. Pissed about $20 bucks.

Cops tried to calm Chris down, but he shouted and cursed until he was cuffed, booked and jailed for disorderly conduct. Trump clearly has no plans to hire this douche bag but his outbursts were entertaining. But going postal every episode got old and he's quickly become the guy everyone wants to see get knocked the hell out. I can't say he's the worst Apprentice ever, but even Omarosa managed to stay out of jail.

Douche Bag Fingered!

I go to Wendy’s more than I go to church, and until the good Lord comes up with a better spicy chicken sandwich, it’s going to stay that way. But I almost lost faith when I heard that a San Jose woman, Anna Ayala, discovered a fingertip in her bowl of Wendy’s chili.

O me of little faith. With millions of shady characters dropping thousands of silly lawsuits, I should have known better than to doubt the sacrament that is enjoying a bowl of Wendy’s chili. Turns out Anna Ayala has a knack for finding, or more like creating, trouble.

The douche bag has about half a dozen lawsuits under her belt. She’s sued her boss for sexual harassment, a used car lot after her wheel “just fell off” her car, and surprise, a Mexican restaurant after, she claims, her daughter got food poisoning (who doesn’t get food poisoning after eating Mexican food).

All finger tips at Wendy’s are attached and accounted for. And after learning about Ayala’s love of lawsuits, the police have now shifted their focus to the skank with bad hair, searching through Ayala’s home for other fingertips. I pray to Wendy’s that they discover a whole body under this woman’s house. To sue is human. But to make me question my faith in Wendy’s chili? Unforgivable!

Desperate Douche Bags

Marcia Cross’ last job came about ten years ago when the world’s largest forehead played a crazy on Melrose Place. Anna Nicole Smith wanna-be, Nicollete Sheridan, had her last big gig several decades ago when she played a ho on Knots Landing. Eva Longoria played a chihuahua on The Young and the Restless. Terri Hatcher’s last job goes back to the early 90’s, when she played Lois Lane on Lois and Clark. And the only major role Felicity Huffman has snagged is as the real-life wife of William H. Macy.

You would think that for such a motley crue of out-of-work actresses, they would be elated that not only can they afford to eat again, but that they are part of this year’s biggest television hit. Desperate Housewives dominated the media before the new television season started, and has stayed at the top of the ratings chart since it aired. And rightfully so. It’s well written, the cliffhanger endings are great and each episode features one of the leading ladies in a bra or bikini, earning it the top spot on the Tivo list. Life is great again for these girls, and they should totally be in love with one another for their combined success (and by "be in love", I mean that they should totally have a pillow fight and then make out in a hot tub).

But the ladies of Wisteria Lane got caught up in the hype, obviously forgetting they were unemployed for a majority of the last ten years. As soon as the credits rolled after the first show, the housewives got catty, bitching about lines and who got to wear what on (and off) the show. The infighting came to a head recently during a cover photo shoot for Vanity Fair magazine. Hatcher, professionally punctual, arrived at wardrobe and got dressed for the shoot. Cross and Longoria, arriving later with their publicists and assistants, pitched a ridiculous fit when they found out that Hatcher got her outfit first. Lots of screaming, lots of crying. In the end, they all smiled long enough for the camera to click, but it’s obvious that these neighbors aren’t going to get along.

Whether the other girls like it or not, Hatcher is the star of the show. Her name is the most recognized out of the bunch. She’s a hottie. And she fucked Superman! The rest are co-stars, and they can yell and scream all they want, but they shouldn’t let their egos get out of control. Hell, for a couple of ladies who haven’t had jobs in awhile, these douche bags shouldn’t have egos to begin with. On Eva’s last soap opera job, writers sent here away to prison for life. Marcia Cross’ writers gave her a brain tumor. So learn to get along ladies, cause it's along way back to Melrose Place, and Heather Locklear could easily have your job next season.

Forever Your Douche Bag

I don’t think anybody cares who wins the third season of American Idol. The big bet is when will Paula Abdul enter rehab.

The Lakers cheerleader turned 80’s pop singer turned hit-and-run driver is making it pretty evident that her on-screen sappiness with Idol contestants and fellow judges Simon Cowell and Randy Jackson is chemically fueled. In the past few years, her odd behavior was reserved for appearances on talk shows, where she slurred and slept her way through interviews with Jay Leno and MSNBC.

But lately, she’s maintained her buzz right through American Idol tapings. Three weeks ago, perhaps on a hit or two of ecstasy, she licked, kissed and drooled all over Simon during judging. A week later, it appeared that she was on a mixture of margaritas and No Doz, as she lap danced Randy and performed her old cheerleading routines during performances.

But last night’s performance showed Paula at her sloppy worst, with eyes half shut and barely an audible word uttered. Cutting off the other judges, Paula, now sounding like a mixture of valium and Guinness beer, shouted "brilliant!" after every performance, though it sounded more like, "Bilyant! Absolut…ely bilyant!"

Various spokespeople claim that Paula has had the flu for over two years now. Others claim that the eight weeks American Idol is on makes for a hectic work year. Whatever the excuse, she’s been too stoned to hear it. And worse, too stoned to hear the wanna-be Idols, claiming that off-key covers of Janis Joplin, Aretha Franklin, James Brown, Stevie Wonder and Barabara Streisand were better than the originals! That alone makes Paula a straight up douche bag.

Rev. Douche Bag

If nothing else, the Schiavo circus has given the unemployed (and the unemployable) something to do. Case and point: Jesse Jackson.

The preaching and philandering Jackson came rushing to dying Schiavo’s side….13 days after her feeding tube was removed and 15 years after this whole mess started. Arriving in a stretch limo, Jackson joined the throngs of nuts, wackos and zealots outside the hospice housing Schiavo, to call for the feeding tube to be replaced. Jackson even went so far as to call black legislators to try and rekindle congressional interference in the Schiavo case.

But even one of the main congressional douche bags who led Congress’ disgusting attempt at playing God wondered what the Hell took Rev. Jackson so long. "If he could sway votes - and I'm certain he may be able to - it would have been helpful if he had done that a little earlier" said Daniel Webster, a Republican. "We're running out of time. To do it now is not as timely as a couple of weeks ago would have been."

Perhaps Jesse’s limo had a flat. Or maybe he was running from a child support lawsuit. Jesse badly needs a cause, even if it’s a white girl. But 15 years and 13 days is a little too long to wait. Get back in the limo douche bag, and take the rest of the freaks with you.

The No Good, the Sad and the Ugly

The ban on awarding members of Congress and other politicos the Douche Bag of the Day blue ribbon has officially been lifted, as a small troop of elected numb-nuts have gone out of their way to prove they are worthy of such belittling distinction.

Topping the list – Congressmen Henry Waxman and Tom Davis.

From the Island of Dr. Moreau comes the hard-on-the-eyes Henry Waxman. He’s joined by a Virginia’s grumpy Tom Davis. Together, they sit atop the Committee on GOVERNMENT Reform. That’s GOVERNMENT reform. They are tasked with looking at how to make the FEDERAL GOVERNMENT better. And how do they propose to make GOVERNMENT better. By telling Major League Baseball how to run their business.

In an attempt to get their odd looking mugs on camera, and score some sweet autographs, Waxman and Davis hauled in baseballs top dogs – Sammy Sosa, Mark McGwire, Rafael Palmeiro – for a congressional hearing on steroid use in pro baseball. The hearing was as boring as baseball itself and accomplished nothing. Waxman and Davis claim that kids will follow in the paths of their baseball idols, shooting up whatever is necessary to hit a ball out of the park. They insisted that this hearing would reach out to kids and make them aware that steroids will drive you crazy and make your pee pee small. But Waxman and Davis are the ones on drugs if they think any 12 year old is sitting at home watching congressional testimony. If they wanted an autographed baseball from Sosa, they should have just logged onto Ebay like everybody else.



And while Waxman has an ass for a face, Davis clearly has shit for brains. Continuing to put the Committee on Government Reform to no good use, Davis called for another congressional hearing on the long-term care of incapacitated adults. As their main witness, they’ve subpoenaed Terri Schiavo, a woman who’s been in a vegetative state since 1990. Terri’s husband has been trying to remove a feeding tube that keeps his wife barely alive, and the courts recently gave him the go ahead to end this sad story once and for all. But like a lot of thoughtless, nosey bastards who have never met Schiavo, Davis jumped in with a trick both brilliant and disgusting. As long as Terri is listed as a witness to a federal hearing, she can’t be harmed in any way. It’s a great strategy, but it still makes Davis a major douche bag for keeping the Government Reform Committee off-track and prolonging this sad story.

But leave it to Texas to put us back on a lighter, though equally absurd, note. State Rep. Al Edwards is quick to prove his worthiness as a future major policy maker, filing one of the most important pieces of legislation in the Texas capitol. Edwards has filed a bill to stop excess gyration among high school cheerleaders. "It's just too sexually oriented, you know, the way they're shaking their behinds and going on, breaking it down," says Edwards. His bill would prevent breaking it down and would cut funds to schools with cheerleaders who refuse to stop breaking it down. Whether the anti-breaking it down bill becomes law or not, Edwards is a douche bag clearly aiming for great things. Perhaps a spot on the Committee for Government Reform?

Eskimo Disses

Calling a congressman a douche bag is a redundant waste of time. Granted, Congress provides plenty of great douche bag material, and, had I the drive to update Douche Bag of the Day on an actual daily basis, I could write my fingers bloody. But there’s half a kajillion sites where you can read about politicians and the silly results of their affairs. There are lots of other douche bags out there that I wanted to write about. I vowed long ago that I would leave politicians alone.

Unless that guy does something really stupid.

May I introduce to you Senator Ted Stevens.

Senator Stevens, still stunned by Janet Jackson’s televised nipple flash tow-years ago has announced plans to introduce legislation calling for the same indecency standards that regulate boring public broadcasts to be applied to cable and satellite programs. That means no more Sopranos, no more Stern, no more South Park, Sex and the City, and Talk Sex with Dr. Sue Johanson.

And no Cinemax Late Nite.

The dweeby Senator is from Alaska, a place where good late night near-porn is needed the most. He states that "Cable is a much greater violator in the indecency area," and, "I think we have the same power to deal with cable as over-the-air broadcasts." What this little Eskimo forgets is that public broadcasts are free. The endless supply of Seinfeld reruns, the Wheel of Fortune and Law and Order: SUV don’t cost a thing. The boobies I see on Cinemax are bought and paid for. The cable company pimps out 270 channels of whatever I want to see for $100 a month. Sometimes it’s Shark Week. Sometimes it’s Trading Spaces. Most of the time it’s boobies.

The Senator can regulate TGIF and Must See TV all he wants. I get that for free with a clothes hanger and some tin foil. But Stevens crosses the line when he tries to regulate programming that people have paid out the ass to receive (plus the cost for cable boxes and creepy installation guys).

President Bush said that viewers should use their own judgement and if they don't want to see somehting, they should just "turn it off." So not only does Stevens want to trample all over individual freedoms, but now he's got the President sounding like the smart one. Way to go, douche bag.

Cell Out

When I give my number to hot, filthy rich models, I expect them to keep it on the down low. I am married for Christ’s sake! So like Lindsay Lohan, Eminem, Ashlee Simpson, DJ AM , Jay Z, other celebrities and Pauly Shore, I too am so pissed that Paris Hilton basically downloaded all our numbers to the common folk. Her T-Mobile Sidekick was hacked, and now I’m getting thousands of calls from teenage girls asking if I’m really me. Now my wife knows that I sleep with models. That’s not hot, douche bag.

And they better not find out about the video tape.

Gotta Go Go

George Michael is tired of all the media attention. He’s tired of being a celebrity.

So he called a press conference.

To announce he's going to disappear.

And to announce his new movie.

A movie entirely about him.

The co-creator of Wham! and the only man to successfully pair jelly bracelets with a five o’clock shadow, is quitting the biz that actually quit him about ten years ago. "It's never suited me very well, the business of media and celebrity," Michael said AT HIS PRESS CONFERENCE. "Now I just find it unbearable."

Michael also blames the popularity of pop bands who churn out silly hooks and too many songs about sex as the reason for his distaste for celebrity. "Nobody want to hear about politics, or any kind of strong ideas in pop any more," whined the singer who’s list of hits includes Wake Me Up Before You Go Go and I Want Your Sex.

Michael’s last run in the spotlight came after being caught on the wrong side of a glory hole in a public restroom. After lots of Letterman jokes and a few headlines in the National Enquirer, he did disappear from the media’s spotlight. Ten years later, the douche bag comes back from obscurity…standing before the media…to tell them that he doesn’t want anymore attention…except for his movie about himself…and the musical he hopes to write and make into a major motion picture. Other than that, no more attention. None. He’s disappearing. For good this time. Again. No one is sure if he really means it this time. But you gotta have faith.

30 Years Too Late

Hey Hey Hey. Sounds like Bill Cosby can’t keep his Fat Albert under control. Two women have come forward with claims that the Cos drugged them with a super-powerful decongestant and then went straight for the pudding.

But Dr. Huxtable won’t be wearing prison-stripped sweaters anytime soon. While Cosby has become an unbearable puss in his twilight years, and while he probably does indeed lace his Actifed with a little rohypnol to bypass the small talk, the claims against Cosby are about as solid as his 70 year old wiener. The strongest and most recent of the two claims comes from a basketball coach who said Cosby slipped her a couple of pills that made her a little loopy, then copped at feel a little later that evening.

She claims that the incident happened one year ago. She can’t say why she waited 12 months to press charges.

The second charge is identically bogus. Model-turned-lawyer, Tamara Green, says Cosby gave her a couple of decongestants at a luncheon that caused her to become incapacitated. Cosby took Green back to her place to demonstrate his stand up routine, but the incapacitated Green somehow managed to fight off the comedian with a lamp. Cosby tossed her $200.

This was 30 years ago.

Thirty. Three-Oh.

Three decades.

15 million days.

Why women’s rights groups and victims’ advocates aren’t running this model-turned-lawyer-turned douche bag out of town is beyond me. Her ridiculous claim is too hard to ever believe, and that makes it more difficult for those who have actually been assaulted by old farts like Cosby. If a 30-year delay in calling the police didn’t kill her credibility, then her legal troubles might. Green was hit with a 13-count bar association complaint for mishandling money and skipping town on three clients. She’s also a not-so-proud member of a program for lawyers with substance abuse and mental health problems.

And when was this woman ever a model! Take 30 years off her chins and cankles and Cosby still paid about $195 too much.

Booty Shakes

There is nothing I love more than getting a lap dance whilst enjoying a delicious nutrition shake. Why anyone would want to deny such a common pleasure is beyond me. But the 15-member strong Citizens Against Nude Juicebars is doing their best to separate the ginseng and the ding-a-ling.

Racehorses Gentlemen’s Club owner Bob Rieger was the first to blend the love of g-strings and implants (yummm....implants) with a healthy dose of glucuronolactone and vitamin B12 (yummm...B12). After a group of fellow South Dakotans...South Dakotites…South Dakotars…snow-covered hicks protested Rieger’s adult establishment and forced the city of Salem to create a no titty-bar law, Rieger changed his club into a juice bar, keeping the butt-naked dancers and adding a menu of protein enriched shakes (protein…hehehe). And the all-nude juice bar was created. And it was good.

Definitely not health nuts, the small band of protesters stepped up their efforts and formed the Citizens Against Nude Juicebars. While Racehorces Gentlemen’s Juice Bar is still open, growth in the pole dancing/power shake industry has taken a huge blow. Now I'll never lose this beer gut.

Paranoia Will Destroya

The typical extracurricular activities of the Colorado native tend to leave them a little paranoid…and with a major case of the munchies. But mostly paranoid, as over-demonstrated by a real life cookie monster, Wanita Renea Young.

A 49-year old mental case, Wanita won $900 in a lawsuit against two young girls living in her neighborhood. On one particular evening, the girls, tired of going to school functions that promoted foul language, dry humping and Ashlee Simpson songs, decided to stay home and bake cookies for their neighbors. The little Martha Stewarts went door-to-door, leaving the cookies and little heart-shaped notes on the steps. One of their last stops was at 10:30 p.m….at half-baked Wanita’s house.

One of the many voices in Wanita’s head convinced her that the footsteps she heard on her front porch were Satan’s minions coming to take her back. Another told her it was the DEA. The girls knock on the door caused Wanita to flip out. She claims to have had an anxiety attack, and, eighteen hours later, decided to go see a doctor. The douche bag sued the girls for the cost of her visit, plus loss of a day’s wages from her job as a Wal-Mart cashier and the cost of a motion sensitive front porch light (which doubled as a mosquito zapper).

The judge, likely an old stoner himself, agreed to portions of Wanita’s delirium, saying that 10:30 was too late for the girls to be outside doing nice things for their neighbors. The judge felt that if the girls were going to stay out that late, they should be at a school function, cussing, dry humping and listening to Ashlee Simpson songs.

The girls still plan on practicing random acts of kindness. Thousands of dollars in donations have been sent in to pay off the $900 fine. And either cookie maker or porn star, Otis Spunkmeyer, has offered the girls their own business. Wanita, who had run-ins with neighbors and aliens before, is staying with relatives until girl scout cookie-season is over.

Diamonds Aren't Forever

Minnesota Viking’s star quarterback Daunte Culpepper is quick to give out the bling bling. He’s even quicker to take it back back.

At a recent press conference, Daunte gave two of the ugliest pieces of jewelry ever made – a gold chain with a medallion featuring his jersey number and another chain with a diamond encrusted pepper – to a young football player confined to a wheelchair after being paralyzed from the neck down during a game. Though too ugly to wear in public, the youth accepted the generous gift, totaling about $75k, hoping to find someone on eBay ready to pay big money for a sparkly pepper.

But as soon as the press conference was over and the cameras put away, Daunte ran faster than he ever did for the Vikings, caught the kid in the wheelchair and asked for his gaudy necklaces back. Had he chased down a football like he chased down a paralyzed kid, the Vikings might have made the Super Bowl. The douche bag took his necklaces back, but promised to send the kid something of real value…hopefully a necklace with Tom Brady’s number on it.

No Duh, Douche Bag

Conservative watchdog group and closet S&M freakniks Parents Television Council has made a startling discovery – MTV TARGETS TEENAGERS!

After watching and most likely masturbating himself silly through 171 hours of MTV Spring Break specials, PTC head prude Brent "Stop Calling Me Bozo" Bozell discovered that MTV shows cater to a younger audience, encouraging shopping at the Gap, excessive text messaging and screaming at the top of ones lungs when requesting Hoobastank’s rad new video. On an even darker side, Bozo found that MTV’s programming also featured lots of bleeped-out profanity (Puff Daddy), simulated sex (Nick and Jessica), lots of smoking (Puff Daddy), lots of drinking (Puff Daddy), and, on occasion, music.

Before the seven-day marathon began, Bozo stated, "There's no question that TV influences the attitudes and perceptions of young viewers, and MTV is deliberately marketing its raunch to millions of innocent children." And shortly after watching MTV programs for 171 hours straight, Bozo returned to say, "Aw shit yo! Check it. Dis sheeznit is wack, ya heard. Dem shows got me all thinkin’ bout nuttin’ but hos and herb. Now I gotta get to da club and party like it’s my birfday. Pour out the Cristal and pimp my ride with spinners on 20-inch doves. Shorty wanna ride wid me? Holla at cha boy, yo!"

How credible really is Bozo and the other PTC douche bags? The PTC just paid nearly $4 million to the World Wrestling Federation for lying about professional wrestling. Lying. About a fake sport. And word has that Bozo is watching a week’s worth of the Food Channel to prove that the programs cater to people who eat. So if you believe the Brent’s MTV study was anything more than an excuse to spend a week watching sixteen-year old girls dance in bikinis, then you just got Punk'd.

It Keeps Calling Me and Calling Me

Douche Bag of the Day may quickly become Douche Bag of the Month. I now have Tivo. And it's taking over.

Tivo takes the television cable and sticks it right up your ass and feeds programs right into your soul. I’m not watching TV anymore….I’m absorbing. I threw away yesterday’s TV Guide because I had already seen everything. Everything! My wife made a crack about a movie on the Lifetime Channel called Mother May I Sleep With Danger and I blurted out "A 1996 drama starring Tori Spelling and Ivan Sergie about a naive female college student who falls in love with a charming pathological liar, credit card scammer and murderer. When her mother attempts to break up the relationship, the psycho boyfriend abducts the daughter and hides her in his cabin in the woods. Two hours. Repeats at 3 a.m. Saturday and all day Sunday."

WHERE THE FUCK DID THAT COME FROM!!!

I get up about three times during the middle of the night to because I keep hearing the TV. My wife gets pissed and screams at me to stop stomping up and down the stairs and I yell back, "DON’T YOU HEAR THAT!?! DON’T YOU HEAR THE JEFFERSONS!?!

Tivo has a little function called Wish List, where you type in a program, an actor or a subject and it finds programs that you might like. I never typed anything in. But right after I hooked it up, I hit the Wish List and up came Knight Rider, Airline, The Price Is Right and Súper Sábado Sensacional. How did it know? CAUSE IT READ MY MIND!!!

I’m scared of Tivo. Don’t like to be at home alone with it. It’s always on. And it’s hooked up to your phone line so it can listen in on your conversations. And call me crazy, but on the same day we hooked up our Tivo…our VCR died.
