12 Better Titles For Snooki’s New Book, “A Shore Thing”

Posted: 01 Oct 2010 02:35 PM PDT

Snooki of Jersey Shore fame (not to be confused with 19th century blacksmith Snooki McGargle) is writing a fiction book to be released in 2011, at which point she’ll have to change her name to Booki – and I’m outta here!!! [Drops the mic, mic hits computer, isn't plugged into anything]

The book is going to be titled “A Shore Thing”. It’s a pun on the title of her MTV show, Thing People. Frankly, when it comes to book titlin’, I think we can do better, or at the very least, way worse. Here’s 12 Better Titles For Snooki’s New “Shore” Book, because the world asked:

Slowly But Shore-ly

Shore As Sugar

Shore Deodorant: Odor Protection For Both Men And Shore

Salute Your Shores

Yes I’m Shore-ious. And Don’t Call Me Shore-ly.

Shore: What Is It Good Shore

Martin Shore

Chlorophyll? More Like Shore-ophyll!

Peace C-Shore-ps

Danish Physicist Neils Shore

One Two Three Four Five Shore Wait Instead Of Four I Mean

Are You Shore You Don’t Have HIV?

Other Snooki book titles? Throw ‘em in the comments.

What Do You Get the Person Who Has Everything Except a Meat Necklace?

Posted: 01 Oct 2010 02:07 PM PDT

Those of you wondering what the winner of Paris Hilton’s My New BFF is up to, wonder no longer. Onch, the adorable butterfly angel who stole Paris Hilton’s heart and hopefully some of her money, has now gotten into designing jewelry under his brand, Onch Movement.

While most of his accessories look realistic and delicious — my personal favorite being the whip cream ring with a cherry on top — Onch has now topped himself with a necklace that is sure to have you be the focus of attention by a group of rabid dogs. It’s a Meat-lace!

This very realistic piece of meat — clearly inspired by the Lady Gaga VMA’s dress that everyone was talking about and wished they were barbecueing — is actually made from a solid piece of plastic. And, at only $55.00, it’s far cheaper than walking around with maggots crawling our of your chest. (Wait, actually, it isn’t cheaper, our bad.)

So just where can you wear your meat-lace? Why, how bout take a tip from Onch’s website, and wear it to your local gay butcher’s S&M club? Look at how happy they are:

MAD MEN RECAP: Guess Who’s Coming For Draper?

Posted: 01 Oct 2010 02:49 PM PDT

This is a recap for the tenth episode of Season 4 of Mad Men starring Jon Hamm, Christina Hendricks, John Slattery, January Jones, John Slattery and a slew of other talented actors, on an episode called “Hands and Knees.” And now, here is your long-awaited For Your Consideration Recap:

SHE’S PREGNANT… WITH TWINS

By the looks of it, about 14 months pregnant. Oh wait, those aren’t baby bumps… that’s her award-winning rack! Oh, Joan, you have fooled us once again you minx. Can you imagine Joan breastfeeding? It would probably look something like this. i.e. Sexxxy!



OH SEW NATURAL

Betty, without makeup, early in the morning, sewing? Were times so tough they had to fire Carla? Unless Betty is finally sewing a long rope out of flat sheets with which to climb out of the second floor window and escape her painfully oppressed existence… yeah, like she would ruin a flat sheet.



AND NOW, A REENACTMENT OF WHAT WOULD HAPPEN IF I RECEIVED A CALL FROM DON DRAPER ABOUT ANYTHING:

Me: “Mmmmmmyellooo?”

“Michelle? It’s Don Draper.”

Me:





SORRY, “THE BEATLES”: MONEY CAN BUY YOU LOVE

Just take it from Don Draper’s School of Kind-of-Around Parenting: Money can heal all wounds, even those inflicted on an underaged public masturbator with serious Daddy issues. Sally is now equipped with two tickets to see The Beatles, courtesy of the hottest un-dad around.



MEANWHILE, LANE GETS READY FOR YET ANOTHER NAMBLA MEETING

He just wants someone to play cricket with, that’s all.




BUT INSTEAD, FINDS THE GRIM REAPER IN A ZOOT SUIT WAITING FOR HIM AT RECEPTION

Oh sh*t, son, Lane Pryce’s dad is in town. You know those ol’ British men don’t play, right? Sr. Pryce, who took time out of being a 1965 Bond villain to greet his son, has a message: Come back to England and take care of your family.



“BUT… YOU LOOK NOTHING LIKE YOUR MYSPACE PROFILE PICTCHAH.”

OK, the joke is done now. But really, how uncomfortable did Mickey look through this entire thing?




AND NOW, A LOOK AT WHAT ROMANCE NOVELS IN IRAN LOOK LIKE

The parts that are visible usually have to do with sensual stonings of one of your wives.




NEVER FORGET: MISS BLANKENSHIP

The one thing I couldn’t shake out of my mind during the North American Aviation meeting with Don and Pete? Watching Miss Blankenship’s cold and lifeless corpse be wheeled out of the offices in last week’s episode. She is a legend, a saint.



“FATHER, YOU MIGHT WANT TO STOP GRIPPING YOUR CANE.”

Oh the wild and crazy 60s!! Where classy guys go and drink and be men at the Playboy Club. Lane’s father, it should be noted, is having a mild stroke in the above photo. And yes, that’s a m-bating double entendre y’all.



THE BOWTIES MEAN IT’S KLASSY

I’m almost kinda being serious.




LANE PRYCE: DOWN WITH THE SWIRL

Ohhhh gurrrrl I know you are not even flirtin with that old British man Lane Pryce!! On second though, he’s rich, British, and loves you to pieces. Great, now I’m imagining Lane doing a spoken word interpretation of “Jungle Fever”… it would probably go something… like this:



IS THIS REALITY, OR JUST ANOTHER BETTY THREESOME DREAM SEQUENCE

You know she loves blazers. She loves blazers so much, she wants to get blazik eye surgery. She loves blazers so much, she sets her phasers to blazer. She loves blazers so much, she dresses like Jacket O’Nassis. Sorry, there are only so many things that rhyme with “blazer.



THIS SHOULD GO WELL

So the defense department is interrogating Betty about Don’s past? If she’s twice as good of an actress with them as she is on the show, Don should be going to prison any minute now.



“MEGHAN, DID WE JUST HAPPEN TO SUBMIT ANY FORMS WHICH GIVE THE GOVERNMENT THE RIGHT TO DISSECT MY LIFE PIECE BY PIECE?”





“UHHHHHH. YAHHHHHHH.”





“GODDAMMIT. I WOULD FIRE YOU IF I DIDN’T REALIZE I WANTED TO F*CK YOU AT THE END OF THIS VERY EPISODE.”





EPISODE QUOTE THAT WOULD ALSO MAKE A STUNNING TATTOO

“Why do you have to be so damn dashing?” She’s actually right: This season, for us at least, Lane is by far the most dashing of all the SCDP employees. He loves this girl and wants to make her a part of his life, racism be damned. Other thoughts we had during this scene? This should turn out well.



THE ONE THING THAT HAS NOT GONE UP IN PRICE: ABORTIONS

$400 for an abortion in the 1960s? Why, for that money you could buy a used Edsel and raise your baby in the trunk. I guess there’s no such thing as inflation when you’re talking about getting rid of an unformed mass of human cells. (Politics!!)



THE ONE THING THAT HAS GONE UP IN PRYCE

Lane’s father’s cane.




POSTERCHILD FOR THE SH*T EATING GRIN ASSOCIATION CLUB





AND A GIF, IF YOU DON’T BELIEVE US





NOW PRESENTING: ABORTION IN A GLASS!

Why take the bus all the way to Morristown, New Jersey, when a simpler approach to baby killing is sitting right in front of you! That’s right, with new “Abortion in a Glass,” you can just drink and smoke your way down to an empty womb. And if you call now, we’ll throw in a special “Punch to the Gut” for free! Just pay shipping and man-handling.



THING WE HOPE TO NEVER SEE IN PERSON

Jon Hamm telling us to wait for the next elevator. < / 3 Then again, we also don't want to see Don turn Pete into a professional eunich, as he did in this very same elevator. The feds are on to Don's lies, and it's up to the Waspiest human being to ever grace the small screen to clear it all up.




JEWSEY SHORE

Glad the show includes black people and Jews now and again. Between Lane’s girlfriend and this slightly stereotypical Jewish accountant (our eyelids actually do make cash register sounds when we blink), this episode read like the casting call for the people on the bus in Speed.



SLUTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

This girl was just ASKING to get pregnant in that come hither plaid knee-length dress. ASKING FOR IT!!



MUCH LIKE A FETUS, WHAT HAPPENS IN THE ABORTION CLINIC, STAYS IN THE ABORTION CLINIC

This woman needs to chillax.




JOAN HAS A 15-YEAR-OLD DAUGHTER?

Damn, girl, how long has that baby been up there?



LEE GARNER JR. KINDA SUCKS (NO HOMO)

Oh, look, the reason that one of our favorite characters got fired (Sal, RIP) is back and dining with Roger Sterling. But what’s this? Oh God, he wants to take the Lucky Strike account away from SCDP! Do you know what this means, people? It means that there is a slight to likely possibility that… SAL is going to come back! (Totally homo!!) And thank God, this season has been so not-dancey-enough.



MOST REALISTIC BURP

Say what you will about Lee Garner Jr., but the actor playing him (Darren Pettie) threw in one of the most realistic television burps we’ve ever seen. We mean this: Great choice, Darren.



FBI: FEDERAL BUREAU OF SCARING THE SH*T OUT OF DON DRAPER INVESTIGATION

What are those two men in suits doing in Don’s hallway? They’re to discover the truth about DICK WHITMAN mayhaps? Oh, wait, they’re just two friendly locals who have lost their way…



“DO YOU KNOW WHERE 1234 UNITED STATES OF AMERICA BOULEVARD IS, KIND SIR?”

See? Nothing to be suspicious about after all.




GIF THAT SHOULD BE ENROLLED IN THE GIF-TED PROGRAM

Don Draper as Sexxxy Superman.
“Even with the shaking and the sweating and the puking” — Bill Cosby




DAMMIT, I’M A DOCTOR, NOT A– OH WAIT, I’M NOT A DOCTOR.





IS THIS WHAT IT FEELS LIKE TO HAVE YOUR WORLD COLLAPSE AROUND YOU?

Because I’m pretty sure I’m the same way after drinking 3 shots of gin. In which case, allow me to use my expertise in saying it is the worst feeling you will ever have. Also, this photo seems to further my theory that the series will end with Don killing himself.



GUESS WHO’S COMING TO DINNER?

It’s Tony Charles, Lane’s new girlfriend.




LANE’S D*CK IS BIGGER THAN WE WOULD HAVE IMAGINED

To kiss her in front of his father? Lane’s a regular Liam Neeson down there.




AND HIS NEW GIRLFRIEND SEEMS COMPLETELY COMFORTABLE WITH THIS PDA

We especially liked the part where she put on her Rocketeer backpack and shot herself into space from right there in Lane’s apartment.



“FATHER, YOU CAHNT TELL ME HUUU-WHAT TO UH-DO!”





ONLY, HE CAN

To hit our dear Lane upside the head with his cane? Wait a minute… we’ve seen this man before…

They basically look exactly this same with or without the helmet.




GIGANTIC MUTATED PEA IN THE POD

What on Earth was up with Trudy’s maternity lingerie? It had to be the most unflattering thing we’ve ever seen on anyone since that time we saw this:





SUMMARY OF HOW TRUDY SHOULD HAVE HANDLED THIS SCENE IN THAT OUTFIT






SHE BOUGHT TWO SEATS ON THAT BUS, JUST TO BE SYMBOLIC

It’s actually really sad that Joan aborted her baby with Roger, only because that baby would have probably been the most attractive infant on Earth. Little hipster glasses for a boy, an adorable baby updo if it was a girl… so many lost opportunities. Why does Joan have to be so sensible all the goddamn time?



ROLODEXTEROUS

Seeing that SCDP is one account away from being in the financial sh*tter, Roger takes to his very modern-for-the-time Rolodex to drum old some old business. Only problem? Half of the names in his Rolodex are dead. Bright side: Those glasses.



CAUSE A SPOONFUL OF DRAPER HELPS THE MEDICINE GO DOWN

Sure, Dr. Faye Miller is putting up with a HELL of a lot when it comes to her relationship with Don. The payoff? Being his little spoon. Bitch.



THE FACE OF A MAD MAN

Listen carefully: This is the man that will bring Sterling Cooper down. He knows everyone’s secrets. And given the beadiness of his eyes and the shadiness of his business practices, he will eventually trample all over his colleagues for a chance at bigger and better things. All the dominoes are being set up on this one.



ONE THING YOU CAN NEVER ABORT: JOAN’S GRACEFULNESS

This is a strong, strong woman. She never flinches. One day after a traumatic medical procedure, and there she is at work, coiffed, dressed, smiling, fresh-faced and ready to go. She’s giving the Asian women in The Joy Luck Club a run for their “surviving the worst circumstances on Earth” money. “Waverly took best-quality crab. You took worst, because you have best-quality heart.” — dedicated to Joan, who always take worst crab.



“YOU SEE, WHAT HAD HAPPENED WAS, LIES LIES LIES, AND THEN SOME UNTRUTHS, DICK WHITMAN SOMETHING SOMETHING, AND NOW WE DON’T HAVE THE NAA ACCOUNT ANYMORE.”

Lie they totally bought, courtesy of Pete Cambell.




DRAPER-PRICE’S® “MY FIRST MAD MEN BLEEP”


Roger said f*ck!!! And they bleeped it! Wish they could do this in each and every episode. I really felt like an adult for once in my life.



BEST BILL CLINTON IMPRESSION

Everything is “great” with the “business” you “guys.”




I AM A GENIUS AT PREDICTING THINGS

A few recaps ago, I predicted that Don Draper was going to get with his secretary Meghan, after spotting some paparazzi shots taken from an upcoming episode featuring Meghan hanging out with Sally Draper. And sure enough??



EFF ME EYESIEST

The episode closes with Don shooting her that famous face we’ve seen hundreds of thousands of times before. Could Meghan finally be the brunette that Don’s been secretly seeking his whole life? We sort of hope so. They’re, like, super power-coupley to the max.



FINALLY, 10 BEATLES TITLES THAT ALSO APPLY TO THIS EPISODE OF MAD MEN

10. “Nowhere Man” (Don’s identity)
9. “I Want to Hold Your Hand” (Lane & his girlf)
8. “Baby’s in Black” (Joan’s Baby)
7. “Shakin’ in the Sixties”
6. “Fixing a Hole” (Too soon abortion joke.)
5. “Don’t Let Me Down” (Applicable to basically everybody)
4. “I Saw Her Standing There”
3. “Mean Mr. Mustard” (Lane’s Dad, who totally looks like a Mr. Mustard)
2. “Act Naturally”
1. “Do You Want To Know a Secret?”

Thoughts on the episode? Beatles titles I may have left out? There’s a comments section, friends, get in there.

Jersey Shore Top Ten Catchphrase Countdown: Macaroni Rascals

Posted: 01 Oct 2010 12:09 PM PDT

Fellow Juiceheads, did you hear the news that our loveable guidos and guidettes from the Jersey Shore are now being syndicated in Japan? It’s not surprising that the antics of The Situation, Snooki, DJ Pauly D and the others are garnering them fame on an international level, but this is: The show’s title in the Land of the Rising Sun is The New Jersey Life of Macaroni Rascals!!! Which, of course, is obviously the best name for a television program since, well, Best Week Ever (R.I.P.). Shame on you, Sally Ann Salsano, for not coming up with this title first!

Now, on with this week’s Macaroni Rascals Top Ten Catchphrase Countdown!

10) “Um, well, for myself, I’m going to figure out what I want to do.”Angelina
So long, Trash Bags. So long, Staten Island Dump. You made it really hard for us to feel sorry for you this season, despite the fact that the rest of the Macaroni Rascals (especially The Situation) treated you pretty reprehensibly. What kind of an answer is this to a question? We included this clip in the Top Ten Catchphrase Countdown NOT as something that you and your friends should repeat, but rather, as a phrase that you should never, ever repeat. Good riddance, Angelina!


9) “I always have a good time when I go out to the club, but in the back of my mind, I’m thinking that I got a girl here. I got pajamas picked out already. This girl wants to bang me. I wanna go back to the crib.”The Situation
Our friends over at Crushable posed an interesting question this week: Is The Situation a one-hit wonder in bed? Judging from the sounds coming out of the Smush Room on this episode, one might be inclined to say that the Sitch rocked his little Maple Leaf’s world. However, the fact remains that he doesn’t get any, um, repeat business. Star printed an allegation this week that The Situation’s situation is the size of a “pinky,” so maybe that has something to do with it? After all, he is called The Situation and not The Package. Discuss!

Also worth noting? We’re PRETTY sure Maple Leaf wasn’t wearing any undergarments at the club. Otherwise, why would MTV have blurred out the area around her skirt? Hardly a scene goes by in this show without an upskirt shot of some sort.

8) “They’re f*cking enjoying it. Don’t feed into their bullsh*t. If you wanna f*ck ten guys in one day, you can. That’s your f*cking business. So let’s go.”Angelina’s Friend, Gina
We’re all for women’s lib, really we are. Suffragette City and all that. But really, no one should be getting it in with ten people in one day, no matter if they’re dudes or chicks. Bad advice, Angelina’s friend! This guy knows what I’m talking about.

7) “Angelina probably left the Swiss cheese in the car, because we all know that rats love cheese.”The Situation
Yeah, not one of The Situation’s best quotes, we’ll admit. But what can we say? It was kind of a slow week at the Metropole.

6) “Make out with me. Make out with me.”Snooki
Poor Snooki. Ever since her breakup with Emilio and his meatballs, she hasn’t got any action (outside of a smash session with Vinny’s watermelon, of course). Well, she finally found someone this week who wasn’t a “grenade, grundle or chode,” but sadly, this guy was also an ex of Angelina’s. Her desperation while Snookin’ For Love was a little depressing, but she does win points for being aggressive!

5) “I think Angelina loves my sloppy seconds, ’cause she goes to Vinny, then she’s trying to go whats-his-name. If you wanna make out with me, just ask. I will say yes.”Snooki
See #6 above.

4) “To call me fake is some, it’s BLASPHEMY to talk against a leader like that. In other countries, you get hung for that type of sh*t.”The Situation
We sort of agree with Sitch here. Not about the hanging part, mind you, but about the being “fake” part. Sadly, we think the Sitch is all too real. The evidence is pretty clear that he’s bought into his own hype, which is why it’s good to see him getting taken down a peg or two each week on Dancing With The Situation.

3) “Yo, let’s get into this Nutella, pimp.”Vinny
We hear that! However, the bearer of the Watermelon Schlong needs to do a history lesson. Nutella does not come from Canada! It was invented by an Italian gentleman named Pietro Ferrero way back in 1946.


2) “What do i have to do to find a guy? This is like f*cking last summer all over again. What I would love to find is a guido juicehead with my personality, my style, and is not a cheater. Can i find that somewhere? ‘Cause I’m not going to go on Match.com again.”Snooki
Maybe try e-Harmony? If the marketing team over there hasn’t reached out to Snooks by the time this recap gets posted, they deserve to be fired. As great as this gem was, the REAL hottness was in the list that Snooki put together while working at the gelato shop. To that end, here are the complete transcriptions of Snooki’s likes and dislikes (that could go on her e-Harmony profile!):
LIKES: Being stubborn, being tan, hoop earrings, dancing, house music, Deadmaus, regular pickles, party scenes, alcoholic beverages, people who “get, like me”, Ed Hardy, television, boats, pink, curly hair (rest indecipherable)
HATES: Hangovers, boys/jerkoffs/fame whores, Miami boys, spicy foods, spicy pickles, spiders, the dark sharks, hardcore “techno”, fake people, smelly people, people, party poopers, debby downers, cookies, my exes.

1) “It’s ‘Wake Up The Whole Entire House Time’: The Song!”DJ Pauly D and Ron Ron
Every week, we praise Pauly D for the levity he’s been bringing to an otherwise drab season in M.I.A. Someone should bottle his enthusiasm and sell it as a rival product to 5-Hour Energy. CABS ARE HE-AH!

Until next week,
Juice Springsteen

PS: I have neglected to mention all these weeks that you have Pete Schultz to thank for the awesome Top Ten Montage videos. Everyone give Pete a fist-pump!

Rachel Zoe is pregnant, you guys. You know what this means?

Cebu Pacific Flight Attendants Dance To Lady Gaga

Posted: 01 Oct 2010 11:47 AM PDT

Here’s some flight attendants from Cebu Pacific Air doing a choreographed safety announcement set to a “Just Dance” / “California Gurls” mashup. I guess setting it to “The Safety Dance” would’ve been too on the nose? (Heyo!).

These passengers are not nearly excited or confused enough:

Also, would it be too jaded bloggery of me to suggest that the guerrilla filming and uploading of this clip was very intentional viral marketing by Cebu Pacific? I believe that’s a reasonable claim, seeing as I’ve now heard of Cebu Pacific.
