Walmart Manager vs. The People

Ran across this video which was followed by a huge debate, so I decided to bring it here for all of us Jerks to tear apart.  The situation:  it's Christmas Eve and Walmart is set to close at 8:00 P.M.  Some people show up at 7:40 P.M. looking to grab a last minute gift, but are prevented by a manager from entering due to it being almost closing time.  The manager's logic seems to be that he wants everything done and employees on their way home by 8, not actually just closing the doors at 8.

What ensues is a group of angry people outside Walmart having a heated argument with the Assistant Manager, and it was all of course caught on tape.  You might side with the shoppers since it seems like if a store is closing at 8 and it's only 7:40, there still should be time to go in and grab something.  But in this particular case one customer goes racist on the manager, asking if the problem is that there "aren't enough Mexicans workin for ya" and if he had to "pay white people more money or somethin."  Obviously that guy isn't going to get a whole lot of love from the Internet over the racist comment, but were all these customers right?

The opposing argument says that a manager has the right to refuse service for ANY reason, and that this manager had the right to do this.  But after all, it WAS Christmas, so who is right here?  The Assistant Manager that wants himself and his employees to get home for Christmas?  Or the shoppers who want to shop during the advertised hours?

Ocean Marketing aka Worst Customer Service EVER

I had this story dropped on my desk at the Jerk Offices a little while ago, and apparently it's the hottest topic currently in the gaming world. 

You probably haven't heard of Ocean Marketing, neither had I, but you may be familiar with Avenger Controllers which are controllers that apparently help the handicapped play games etc.  Apparently one customer hadn't received an order and tried contacting Ocean Marketing who handles the customer service for Avenger Controllers, and basically got some of the shittiest responses ever. 

Basically the person ordered 2 controllers and was disappointed that they wouldn't arrive by Christmas as promised.  After getting the runaround on a shipment date, the customer is contacted by Paul Christoforo who is apparently the president of Ocean Marketing.  Christoforo goes on to name drop every video game source in the industry such as IGN and G4 while touting how he has so much pull and is a superstar basically.  You really have to read the entire conversation to see just how bad this guy deals with customers.

Well now Christoforo is getting owned by every company he name dropped as almost every one of them are making statements about not endorsing him or his company at all.  This is a case of someone thinking they are a bad ass and super popular, then getting bitch slapped by reality.  Give shitty customer service, then your company goes to shit.  This guys company is just going to shit faster than most due to all this publicity (bet he doesn't love it all that much now!)  Well us Jerks are joining in on owning this moron, as we sit back and laugh while he will no doubt be sitting in a corner crying over his own idiocy.  If you read it and want to share in telling him what you think, well it's too late because he's apparently ran away from Twitter due to all this "publicity."

Lady Gaga's New Video is Her Most Insane Yet

She just had her own Thanksgiving special, she just posed nude for a Tony Bennett painting, and now Lady Gaga has directed her first music video.  With Gaga in control, "Marry the Night" delivers 13 minutes of music video craziness, but it's Lady Gaga after all.

Don't get us wrong, the Jerks are big Gaga fans actually, as there is nothing like her crazy mix of musical talent and over the top theatrics.  We're not the types who hate Gaga because she wears crazy outfits and does shocking things at concerts and in videos.  The "Marry the Night" video does take things to new levels of craziness though, including but not limited to naked cheerio baths, nurses with great asses, Gaga as a ballerina, and even more nakedness.  Keep in mind this whole video is supposed to represent all the things that happened to Gaga before making it big, so it's a bit of a bio video, somehow.

Check out 13 minutes of Gaga greatness below, keep in mind you may have to watch it a couple of times to comprehend everything you've just seen:

Carly Foulkes, the T Mobile Girl. Oh yeah.

We all know that my heart belongs to Jessica from True Blood, but, is Random Villain straying a bit? Is my heart suddenly going pitter pat for.......The T Mobile Girl? I gotta tell ya, she very well could be the hottest thing on TV today. This girl...



Makes me....



WOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!

Adam Carolla Rants on Occupy Wall Street

This may be a couple of weeks old, but it was so good I figured it still needed to be posted.  Last month we posted the live stream of Occupy Wall Street which is still up and running and showing all the craziness as it unfolds.  Many people including me really didn't know much about all this, other than there were groups of people doing these huge protests that they thought would change something.

Well for anyone who wants a definite opinion on Occupy Wall Street, Adam Carolla is that guy.  In the interview below Carolla lays out it out pretty simply: people are mad that others busted ass to make more money than them, and they want to whine and complain about it.  He points out that back in the day people would look up to someone who worked hard to build a business or work their way up in the world, but now people just want to complain and want a cut for themselves regardless if they worked or not.

So if your someone that looks at all this Occupy Wall Street stuff and thinks these people are just a bunch of whiny bitches, Adam Carolla is with you.  There are still tons of people living in tents and trying to prove a point instead of going out and busting their asses to be successful, will they succeed in their efforts?  I tend to think not.  Check out Adam Carolla's full rant below:

An Alternate Version of The Karate Kid? YES

....And no I don't mean that movie that should have been named "The Kung Fu Kid" starring Jayden Smith that was about KUNG FU and NOT Karate.  I'm talking about the original 1984 Karate Kid with Ralph Macchio, but totally different than how we know it. 

This version of the movie was a "rehearsal" version of sorts.  Start to finish, the whole movie is run through without any props or effects.  It's pretty crazy to see the movie some of us have seen hundreds of time this way, since it's slightly different with some extra lines and scenes thrown in.  One of the real crazy things is seeing the referee from the famous karate tournament playing the part of John Kreese in this run through. 

Not since the hilarious "Wax On, Fuck Off" video have we seen such Karate Kid greatness.  Below is part one of the Karate Kid alternate movie, and the rest is linked when  you click through below:

Verizon Motorola Droid Razr is Not Better than the iPhone. Are you Crazy?

Here they go again. It seems like for the past 4 years, every couple months, there is a new smartphone aiming to take the crown from the greatest invention in the history of the world- The Apple iPhone. The iPhone is not just a phone, you see. It is an i-everything. As long as you have an iPhone ( and an iMac, Macbook, iPad, and some ipods) you don't really need anything else. Almost everything else is just a phone.

Now one of our old friends is claiming that the Droid Razr beats the iPhone. Are you crazy, dude? Remember when Verizon didn't have the iPhone? These guys even said the Verizon Voyager could replace the iPhone. I can't count how many "smartphones" have come and gone, and many of them are obsolete within a year or less. Meanwhile the iPhone keeps getting updated and just gets more and more awesome.

I don't care what kind of comparison charts or reviews you throw out there that claim the iPhone has an equivalent, the features and pure awesomeness of the iPhones cannot be beat.

Michele Bachmann Lying Ass Bitch? Jimmy Fallon Walkon Song Lyin Ass Bitch by Fishbone

Michele Bachmann, "Lyin Ass Bitch,"* was on Late Night with Jimmy Fallon tonight. If you don't know, Bachmann is Congresswoman from Minnesota, and is running for the 2012 Republican Presidential nomination. She had a bump when she entered the race but is mostly polling in 5th or 6th place these days. Some people consider her a crazier ( and less hot) version of Sarah Palin.

"The Roots" are Jimmy Fallon's house band, and they always try to play some walk on music that is personally customized for each guest. It might be a play on their name, personal background, movie character/roles, or some kind of inside joke. Tonight they played the Fishbone Song "Lyin Ass Bitch" for Michelle Bachmann. When they first started playing, I felt like something was up. " I made out " She's a la la, a la la" but couldn't figure it out.

Then Questlove took to twitter, and let it be known that this walkon song was "snark" and linked to the iTunes page for the Fishbone EP "Fishbone," which included a track listing. The obvious choice was "Lyin Ass Bitch." I checked the lyrics and verified. Sure enough that was it. If I weren't such a Jerk, I'd almost feel a little bad for Michelle Bachmann.




*Now I'm not saying Michelle Bachman is a "Lying Ass bitch." I'm just reporting this.

Literally


Ok people, call me a JERK but today's lesson is the use of the word literally...

I don't know where some of you jackwagons went to school but come on already. Let me break it down for you.

The QB is not "literally" killing the other team (unless your watching The Last Boyscout).

You're not "literally" starving to death, your lazy ass is just hungry.



You're not literally going to die if you don't get want you want, unless what you want is an organ transplant.

You are however, literally a moron who is literally making this world a worse place.

I don't know whats worse, people who use the word literally wrong or people who use OMG or LIKE every 10 seconds.... OMG, I am literally going to like shoot one of you in the face one day!

Sack up, take some pride in being at least moderately educated because when the Chinese get here you're ass is literally going to be the first to go!

The Greatest Movie Poster Of All Time! The Expendables 2!

This poster should just be the new American flag. The end. I had to go buy a new god damn monitor for my computer when I first saw this. Not much to really say here, just check this out and be in awe. The only people to have negative things to say about this poster, are also the same people who just got home from the movies after swooning over some vampires and werewolves.

Target Just Got Me Pumped for Black Friday

Next week is the big week for people who have 30+ people on their Christmas list that they're obligated to buy something for, therefore have to get up early as hell the day after Thanksgiving in order to get the best deal. Yep, it's the one and only Black Friday - the modern day "holiday" that celebrates shopping insanity. 

I haven't seen too many crazy deals coming out just yet, but I do know that Target caught my attention with their Black Friday 2-Day Sale commercial.  Apparently this commercial ran last year, but I don't know how I could have missed it.  Target has made magic by comparing Black Friday training to Rocky 4 training.....genius.  Comedian Maria Bamford is shown "training" for the Black Friday madness with the Rocky 4 training montage playing in the background.  They want Black Friday attention, this was the way to do it as far as I"m concerned.  I've read this aired last year as well, but I have no clue how I could have missed it.  None the less, I believe this has my vote for best Black Friday ad/commercial ever:

Television and The Fall of Men


The Fungus has landed. My first blog here with these damn JERKS. Let the hate mail begin.

As an avid television viewer I take a lot of pleasure out of the old boob tube. I watch probably about 100hrs of original programming each week, supplemented by reruns and Netflix as well. However, now I see television as the double edged sword that it is.

What made me turn on an old true friend? A friend who has been there since childhood? Well, its simple really.... Television Has Destroyed Men.

Here, I have broken down how TV has fucked up the American Male. If you don't like it, well, I'm a jerk.

1. Stupid Fat Husbands:

The Most Likely Offenders: Doug Heffernan, Homer Simpson, Jim

As a fat guy and all around asshole this is probably the most personal of the three with me. Television shows and sitcoms started pulling this shit years ago, who originated the trend, I cant be sure, but Homer Simpson may very well be at ground zero.

Being fat was always in the cards for sitcom husbands, Archie Bunker & Dan Conner just to name a few but they had something, something that made them special, something called testicles. These MEN did manly things, and although they did occasionally slip up for comedic sake, you always knew who the man in the relationship was. Even when Roseanne was browbeating Dan, you knew that at any minute he could turn around and set things straight.

Today however, the television view audience has been overwhelmed with clowns in 4x sweatpants being verbally abused by semi-hot wives. This causes a few problems. First is that it allows fat kids growing up to believe they have a chance with these women, and its simply not true. Secondly, where have all the testicles gone? These women berate, abuse, and generally make asses out of grown men who in return are portrayed as simpletons and morons.

The King Of Queens, he didn't want a baby, she got one anyway, they then got pregnant with a second, sure the show allowed the viewers to think it was a happy ending, but really what we saw was a FED EX driver and glorified secretary have two kids they cant afford in the most expensive city in the world? Why? Doug was castrated, he was asked to work a hard laboring job, come home and deal with his wife's insane father and then to top it all off, listen to his loud mouthed, ignorant wife tell him to lose weight. NUT UP DOUG!

When did we lose control? When did it become not ok to raise your voice or throw a fit? Yes, Archie Bunker was a racist, but his generation also fought and won wars for us, his generation also had American kids in the forefront of math and reading in schools, and his generation allowed men to be men.

2. EMO Parents Raising EMO kids:

Lets talk about our feelings... or better yet, lets make everyone talk about their feelings in excruciating detail.

Stop babying the kids man, let them grow up and experience life. Kids get hurt, kids mess up and get punished and kids get into all kinds of strange shit... well, they used to.

I watch these family based shows like Parenthood and it makes me sick, real life to me, is more like Raising Hope... shit happens. Parents shouldn't be concerned about stunting someones emotional creativity because they got in trouble for spray painting someones wall.

Kids don't get an equal say in the relationship, I don't give a shit if your mom is one of the Gilmore Girls!

Beat your kids people, just don't abuse them.

3. The Anti-Hero

The Offenders: Dr. House, Vic Makey, Dr. Christian Troy, Stone Cold Steve Austin, many many more as well.

Moral ambiguity at its best! Yes, Vic Makey is a great cop, he stops drug dealers, he puts away rapists, but he also shoots other cops in the face, and steals. This is not ok. Yes, its entertaining, yes its good TV, but its not for everyone, and its NOT OK.

There has to be a time where you sit back and say, "Is this ok for my kid, teen, etc?"...

If your TV is doing the babysitting, if your watching Desperate Housewives in the other room and really don't give a shit, well then this whole article is probably offensive and aimed right at you.

Is it ok for your son to be a Vicodin addict if he is also a doctor? Is it ok to punch your boss in the face as long as you have a great catch phrase? I wasn't really asking, the answer is NO.

These same people, parents that scheduled their kids births, parents that talk to their kids on the phone more than in person, are the same people to spit out how "the world is going to hell" and "what happened to our country" well, you're what happened to our country!

You raised crybaby, peanut allergy having, testosterone lacking, morally ambiguous, menstruating girlie-men.

It's your fault. Deal with it.

So, until we pull our kids away from the TV, or god forbid talk to them about what they are watching, men are going to continue to grow up bitches.

How To End Child Molestation

So I've been reading up on this Penn State Sandusky bullpoop tonight, and it got me to thinking about how sick and screwed up people are in the head and I came up with an idea on how to end child molestation all together. Seriously. I know how to do it.

If someone is found out to be a child molester, they get killed.

Yeah, I said it.

No arrest or jail or trial just kill them. Straight up.

Now don't give me this BLAH BLAH EVERYONE GETS A TRIAL BLAH BLAH because guess what, Casey Anthony got a trial and now look! OJ Simpson? Yeah, trials are worthless. So if you get caught molesting kids you get killed, instantly. Why is this such a good plan? Because if that was the way things were done, NO ONE would be doing this anymore. If they knew the moment they were found out and caught that would be killed on the spot, would they risk it? Sure, a couple might because they're crazy. But the numbers of victims would drop dramatically. And this Sandusky guy would be fine, because I bet if that is the way things were done, he wouldn't have risked it and there would be no scandal fiasco at Penn State. And if you think this is a bad idea, ask a victim, or ask the parents of a victim. It's kind of like what I say about drunk driving accidents. If you are driving drunk, and get into a car accident that is your fault, then you should have your drivers license taken away. FOREVER. I bet no one would be risking that, would they?

So yeah, lets start getting tough on criminals. Child molesters get put down. And drunk drivers get their license taken away forever! Boom! UNITED STATES OF RANDOM VILLAIN.

Live Stream Video of the Occupy Wall Street Madness

Well, if you are on the Internet then you are probably reading a lot about all hell breaking loose in New York over this "Occupy Wall Street" business.  Apparently the NYPD decided to clear the protesters by unleashing tear gas and LRAD so Zuccotti Park could be cleaned.  It's a crazy scene on the street that resembles a riot, and it's crazy to think all of this madness is going on right here in the U.S.A.

Even crazier, the NYPD has banned the media from being there and reporting on all of this and has even cleared the airspace.  I don't know if the NYPD thought they would keep any of their actions from getting out, but protesters are streaming all of this live via their cell phones and all this madness can be seen as it happens.  One stream we've been following is "The Other 99" live stream, who have been streaming all of this for days and is  right in the heart of this current riot atmosphere.  Watch all of the Occupy Wall Street happenings unfold live below:

Call of Duty Modern Warfare 3: My thoughts

I have been addicted to Call of Duty since COD4. Since then I have spent hours upon hours playing each one, grabbing the new ones at midnight releases. I used to go to the Game Stop to pick them up among the 200+ other people, then realized Super Wal Mart will have it at midnight as well, and there is usually about 10 people there at midnight, stupid Game Stop fans. Game Stop blows, why the hell is every person I encounter working inside a Game Stop such a giant know it all doucher?

Anyways.... back to MW3.

I played through the story in the game and finished it in just a few hours. The game play itself is pretty great, each "level" so to say there is something new to try. But the story itself and the music in the game felt a little bland. But I think its because they know that most fans don't even bother with the story, they go straight to the multiplayer, which is where things get very interesting.

There is a lot of new features in multiplayer. Not in the game types, but in the classes you can now create. Perfect example is the kill streaks. Before you could only set your kill streaks and it remained the same for all classes, but now you can change kill streaks to go with each class you make. Along with that you now have different types of kill streaks. You have the ones we all know and love where the longer your streak goes without dying, the better your rewards are, but now we get a just a kill count in general streak, where even if you die you still get rewarded. And also introduced is the extra perks kill streak. The longer your streak goes, the more perks you can add on top of the three perks you have already set.

There are all new attachments and perks for the individual weapons themselves, which you can only unlock as you level up. No money system like in Black Ops.

The game play itself is more or less the same as always which is fine. I hate when games come out with more sequels and they start changing the controls around IM LOOKING AT YOU TONY HAWK! The maps are not sniper friendly however. Each map I have played so far is pretty tight making using a sniper class almost useless.

All in all, if you are a casual fan of Call of Duty you will of course love this game. If you are a super nit picky nerd I am sure you will just bitch about it and buy it anyways.

Sasha Grey Wants to Read to Kids at Schools

Yes, Sasha Grey really wants to help raise your kids right by teaching them the importance of....reading.  Last week Grey took part in the "Read Across America" program by reading to a group of FIRST graders in L.A.  Shock of the year - parents didn't like it and raised hell about a porn queen reading to their kids.   The school then tried to deny Grey was even there, but too bad for them as TMZ has pics. 

We have another case here of someone who decided she should go out and be the dirtiest porn star in the history of life, but now thinks she's "mainstream" since she's been on some regular TV shows and should be allowed to go and be a role model for kids.  REALLY?  I'm sure most of these parents realize that these kids may come home saying "We had this really nice lady at school today, I want to look her up on the Internet someday and learn more about her" then BAM, instant problems to explain.

Sasha Grey, get real.  You won awards for being good at oral and taking it in the ass really well, congrats, but you are never going to be "respected" or "mainstream."  You can throw fits all you want and say you refuse to leave the reading program, but no school is going to want you nor will they accept your "past."  You made your choice like any other porn star, and that choice DOES put some restrictions on what you do when your porn career is over.   You could always start the "Porn Star Reading Club" and see how far that gets you....probably ALMOST as far Read Across America did.  Maybe next she will tell us how she would like to read her own book "Neu Sex" to kids.  Would you allow this person to read to your kids?

Despite Ryan Dunns death, Jackass 4 is a go.

I never thought this would happen. After Ryan Dunns death I thought for sure that we had seen the last of Jackass. So it makes me happy to see that they are going to continue on yet it will be weird not seeing Ryan Dunns involvement. Jess Margera, brother of Bam, pretty much broke the news on the CKY website about the fourth film happening after a fan asked him how Bam had been doing since Dunns death.

Question:
Hey Jess, I was wondering how Bam's been doing. He seems like he's changed a lot over the last year and a half and it's only getting worse. I was just wondering if he's okay. I'm a huge fan of basically you're entire family. Hope things are well. <3
asked by Shylah on 11/10/2011

Answer: He's okay i guess but still very very upset over Ryan. Him and raab were basically part of the Margera family. For the most part we feel like we lost our older brother, and it feels horrible. And now bam has to film jackass 4 without his partner in crime which is going to hurt even worse. So I guess what I am saying is, no he is not okay.

The Ballad of G.I. Joe

Today FunnyOrDie.com brings us a video that will be legendary to anyone that grew up in the 80's as a G.I. Joe fan.  The Ballad of G.I. Joe gives us a bit of an update on all the classic characters while we are serenaded by the one and only Dreadnocks.  We didn't think there would be anything G.I. Joe related that would be on the level of the news that G.I. Joe the Movie was coming out on Blu-ray, but the classic G.I. Joe goods just keep coming.  Check out the full video below, and don't skip the ending, as there's a little cameo that makes everything complete:

Country Music Is Better Than Everything

Yeah, you read that title right. I'm from Arizona so country music is unavoidable here. Most people go on about how much they hate it because it's the cool thing to say. But in todays music world, country music is the best there is. Why?

No Biebers, no Kardashians, no awful rap music, no whipping the hair back and forth, no Friday Friday, no Snookis, no Britneys or Christinas. Just people who for the most part actually write their own lyrics and play their own instruments who don't need the help of autotunes and other devices to make them sound better.

You can put on a country music channel, and actually see country music videos! No repeats of Jersey Shore, no Kim Kardashian shit anywhere. Just the occasional country type show and sometimes they'll play Road House. When 9-11 happened, artists and bands put together songs about sadness and dedication, which is all nice and good. But it was Toby Mother Fucking Keith who sang about beating some ass.

I can not stand much of anything these days. I love bands like Foo Fighters and Red Hot Chili Peppers but in order to see those guys on TV I have to sit through all the other shit. So it's nice to have country music channels to turn to and not hear about this stupid Kardashian divorce that no one gives a shit about, or about the damn Michael Jackson Dr Death stuff. Country music, at least in present day, is the best type of music around. And if you want to throw a fit about it, guess what? Chad Smith from the Chili Peppers was also the drummer for another band.....THE DIXIE CHICKS.

Brett Ratner Is A Douche.

I hate Brett Ratner. This guy has yet to make ONE good movie. And the reason why all of his movies suck balls was explained when he was asked about rehearsing with his actors and he replied..."rehearsing is for fags". Really?

Well with that and on top of him jerking off with shrimp and lying about Olivia Munn he now was fired, sorry I mean he resigned as producer of the upcoming Oscars. Yeah, he just willingly left that, and along with that, Eddie Murphy decided that his career sucks enough now, so why stick around to host something that he would be a part of that people will actually watch? So he left too. Can't do funny without Ratner huh?

Brett Ratner is like the Joe Francis of movies. I don't mean what that means other then they both look like creepers who Chris Hansen will end up interviewing in a kitchen somewhere. Why is Brett Ratner always sweaty? Every picture I see him in he looks like he just took a shit at a Taco Bell and is trying to figure out where he is.

In closing, who gives a crap if Ratner said "fags"? Gay people don't even care. This guy is a moron who knows for a fact he is in the public eye yet goes and says some of the dumbest crap on the planet. Like going on Attack Of The Show and talking shit about Olivia Munn. Brilliant move, I hope his publicist fires HIM. He sucks, I could give a 3 year old a toy camera and some legos and you would probably get a better movie out of just that over the crap this guy makes.

Anyone Heard About Kim Kardashian Getting Divorced?!

Seriously...I think the next step in coverage of this Kim Kardashian divorce bullshit fest will be hourly updates on if anyone remotely associated with Kim Kardashian or Kris Humphries has taken a shit.  The world is acting like they are in total shock to find out Kim is a moron, yet all you have to do is take a simple look back at Kim Kardashian's history and it all makes sense that she would get a divorce after 72 days.

First off, let us not forget that Kim Kardashian is only famous because of her sex tape with Ray J.  Yes,  a hardcore sex tape "leaked," Kim got mad, then got happy when she made a deal to make a few million off the tape.  Did anyone know her before the sex tape scandal?  Not me.  Somehow over the years it's been forgotten that Kim made her name from being a porn star, not from being a girl on this nice family reality show. 

After becoming well known for her sex tape, the reality show "Keeping up with the Kardashians" debuted and made the rest of her family suddenly famous, as no one knew who the hell any of them were either prior to the show.  Then she showed how much she was still upset about the sex tape scandal by posing nude for Playboy and making even more money.


And lastly, if anyone doesn't realize it, this is NOT Kim Kardashian's first divorce.  She was married to some music producer over 10 years ago, and that ended in divorce in 2004.  That was all before she was getting nailed on video.  Then of course she was banging Reggie Bush for a while, and a few other relationships mixed in there as well.

 Kim posed nude for W Magazine just last year and was still up to her old tricks by getting "fake mad" that her boobs and ass were clearly shown, as if she didn't realize that would be the case when she took the pics standing there ass naked.  It all made for good TV conveniently enough, which pretty much describes every episode of any of their "reality shows."

Basically Kim Kardashian is famous for getting naked and letting people see as long as she gets paid, for having a ton of fake reality shows, and of course for having a huge ass. Nothing wrong with any that, we're fans of the sex videos and naked pics actually.  But all this "dream wedding" crap and acting like the Kardashians are this nice family other families should model themselves after is crap given all the history.  If making millions from sex tapes and nude photo shoots is your goal in life, Kim Kardashian is your role model.  We are Jerks, we tell it like it is, and the world needed a reality check on the Kardashian bullshit fairytale world.

R.I.P. Heavy D

With it barely sinking in that Smokin' Joe Frazier passed away last night, today we have to unfortunately report that rap legend Heavy D passed away today.  TMZ reports that Heavy D, real name Dwight Arrington Myers was rushed to an L.A. hospital today and later pronounced dead at age 44.

You may remember Heavy D from his successful rap group from the 80's and 90's "Heavy D & the Boyz," his numerous TV and movie appearances, as well as being behind the theme song for "In Living Color."  He had just performed at the BET Hip Hop Awards last month, which was his first live performance in 15 years.  Check out one of Heavy D & the Boyz biggest hits below, "Now That We Found Love:"

R.I.P. "Smokin" Joe Frazier


As we prepare for the huge re-launch of BunchOfJerks.com, we received the news that legendary boxer "Smokin" Joe Frazier has passed away and wanted to take the time to report on it. 

Joe Frazier was a "main eventer" and former World Champion in the golden age of boxing.  Back when boxing was colorful, exciting, and full of characters.  Of course Joe's most memorable feud inside the ring and out was with Muhammad Ali.  Just like old school wrestling, the promos really sold their fights and developed a story of the arrogant big mouth "bad guy" Ali vs. the common man's hero Joe Frazier.  Frazier won their first fight by decision, but lost the 2 following matches with Ali.  Frazier also went undefeated through his world title reign before losing the title to George Foreman in 1973. 

Frazier is also remembered for his cameo appearance in "Rocky," shaking hands with Apollo Creed and Rocky Balboa before their title fight and being acknowledged as a former world champ.  Frazier was a real life "Rocky" in many ways, being he was from Philadelphia and fought his way up the ranks to become World Champion against all odds. 

I've enjoyed the many documentaries that Frazier has been featured in over the years, whether they were about his feud with Ali or the era of boxing in general, there was a magic in boxing at that time that is long gone.  Just over a month ago I read about Frazier being diagnosed with liver cancer and eventually being under hospice care.  It always sucks to hear that a legend has passed, but the magic from Smokin Joe Frazier's era will always be remembered because boxing will never be like that again.  Here is an awesome video tribute to Joe, and set to what better music than a classic Rocky theme song:

Ryan Dunn aka Random Hero has died.

This is a pretty crappy thing to wake up to. Ryan Dunn aka Random Hero, has died. Police say his car had flown through about 40 yards of trees until it finally hit the last tree and the car exploded instantly. Police arrived to the scene and found his car fully engulfed in flames. Another passenger was in the car with him but no name has been released at this time.

He just had a new show on G4 start, Proving Ground, which G4 announced today they have removed from their schedule. And you can probably make a safe bet that any and all future plans for anything Jackass related have been, or will also be cancelled. I don't see those guys, especially Bam Margera who has been friends with Ryan Dunn since high school, doing anything because of this.

It's a sad day for all CKY / Jackass fans. Not many people know of the CKY videos, but on those videos is where he was nicknamed, the Random Hero. Which is how I came up with, Random Villain. Which is my username for just about everything. Without Ryan Dunn, there would have never been a Random Villain. He will be missed.

Extreme Cone-ing To The Face

A new sensation is sweeping the world. "Cone-ing". It's pretty simple. Order an ice cream cone, and grab the ice cream and drive away. Simple, yet hilarious. But we decided to up the game a little. And sent our Junior Jerks out into the field to attempt, Cone-ing To The Face. Check it out.

Red Hot Chili Peppers new album, I'm With You releasing August 30th

The title says it all. Today on Twitter, and by today, I mean not even 10 minutes ago. Flea jumped on Twitter to let all Chili Pepper fans know that they have picked a name, and a release date for their new album. I'm With You will release on August 30th. Not much else is known at this time, but we can all assume a tour will follow the release.

X Men First Class Thoughts

I was very iffy on this. I didn't know how I felt about going into a X Men movie that didn't have any of my favorite X Men in it. I've already had to suffer through 2 X Men movies that were slow and didn't feature Gambit in any way. And then that Wolverine movie....yikes. But, I heard all the good things so I decided what the hell. And what I got was the very best X Men movie out of them all. There is so much that they are keeping under wraps it is almost a shame. I didn't even know Kevin Bacon was the main villain in this movie until I saw him in it. He isn't in any of the previews or anything I have seen online for it. It's kinda weird. But he can play one hell of a villain, that's for sure.

It was kind of nice not having any of the well known X Men in this, because it gave me a chance to discover new ones, and see a little bit more of ones I have only heard a little about.

The action scenes were amazing. So much so that during the big finale, I had this music playing in my head and it was a nerdgasm.


Yeah, this movie gave me the feeling of watching the old 90s cartoon. It was that good.

People are asking if this falls in line with the other X Men movies. In a way it does, a small way. But in a large way it doesn't. If it does fall in line with the others then holy crap the continuity is way off. I'm hoping that they have just spun off and are now going in a new direction and we can get more movies like this, with more characters we know and love. Possibly the very best movie of the year, so far.

E3 Coverage Next Week

We can't promise to have every single little tiny bit of info that comes out of E3 next week. But we will damn sure try. We are but a staff of a couple. So I will drop here one of the things that made my inner child geek out. Konami dropped a bomb in their pre E3 conference. Which I hope means during E3, we will see more. Check it out, and prepare to fire up the NES.

What's the Deal with that Blog Where We used to Blog

Several Years ago we launched a blog called Ultra Entertainment ( it has a content warning, but I have no idea why). Then we later renamed it after a fictional character as a spoof of some ridiculous entertainment bloggers who consider themselves part of the entertainment. We made it as a goof and played along with the idea. The point of the site was really just to write whatever we felt about entertainment like movies, music, video games and pop culture. For such a small-time operation there was a lot of noise and "drama", and we effectively ending up killing that character off around 2 years ago. Though it wasn't exactly our choice.

I was asked what was going on with that old blog, and the answer is: Not Much. All thousand+ of those posts can still be accessed through the original Ultra Entertainment blogspot address, if anyone really cares. I don't think it's accessible through search engines anymore, though. So the blog's still there.

As for the Character? I don't know what to say about that. It looks like someone has the domain name and is just parking it for now. Maybe they might make a site and try to capitalize off the good will of the previous site, but the joke's on them if they think that site had any goodwill involved.

Is an Old Friend Coming Back?

Anyone who has followed "The Jerks" from the beginning probably knows what I'm talking about. I noticed something weird when I was looking through Google this morning.

I don't know what it means really, but this seems a little weird. I will have to do some investigating and confer with the Jerks to figure out what the heck is going on here.

New Movie Trailer for "The Smurfs"

I recently posted that I loved the old school vibe in the "Green with Envy" trailer, but I have mixed emotions on this next trailer.  The first "Smurf" movie is on the way this summer, and any time you are dealing with a classic franchise from an awesome era, things can get tricky.  This new trailer shows the Smurfs in their traditional village and things are actually looking really cool.  The Smurfs are even being chased around by their arch rival Gargamel, which adds to the old school vibe from the cartoon.  Things unfortunately take a turn that has me questioning if this will be a winner.

As the story goes, it seems Gargamel chases the Smurfs out of their village and into the real world.  Stuff like this reminds me of a combination of the terrible Masters of the Universe movie (where the characters left their home planet in the first 10 minutes of the movie and were on Earth interacting with regular people) and the recent Alvin and the Chipmunks movies (where all the hokey comedy is the main selling point of the movie.) 

Things look great in the village, but Neil Patrick Harris doing comedy with the Smurfs may get too far out there for my liking.  I'm hoping I'm wrong and we're not going to get a goofy Alvin and the Chipmunks movie starring the Smurfs, but this trailer

"Green with Envy" Trailer

**Warning - Bit of a spoiler in this post if you haven't seen the trailer yet **

Anyone who saw Pirates of the Caribbean 4 this past week saw this trailer for "Green with Envy" before the movie.  Many of you have seen it online, but if you haven't....I'm going to put the trailer right here in the middle of the post so you can view it before I talk about it further:



That's right, if you just saw the trailer for the first time, you just saw that "Green with Envy" was just a big swerve to debut the trailer for the new Muppet movie!  I loved the twist and imagine movie theatre reactions to the twist were awesome.

Even better, I get the vibe that this will be a traditional feeling Muppet movie with Kermit having to go around and reunite the Muppets who are all off doing their usual off the wall jobs and such.  And another major plus about this is that they are promoting it as coming out "this Thanksgiving."  I can't imagine a better time than the holidays to debut a new Muppet movie.  Definitely pumped for this one and can't wait to see this in theaters get that old school Muppet vibe back.

RIP "Macho Man" Randy Savage

I was a little kid, and I was new to the world of wrestling. The very first match I ever saw was Tugboat Vs Jobber on Superstars. After that, I was hooked. My parents owned a small video store in Phoenix AZ and later that day, I went in to see what wrestling VHS tapes we had there. Wrestlemania IV was it. The one with the giant Hulk Hogan pop up when you opened it up. I put that on, and watched Randy Savage win the WWF Championship. And I was instantly hooked and a huge fan, and ever since that day long ago, Randy Savage has remained my all time favorite. Sure I was a Hulkamaniac, and I loved some Ultimate Warrior, but when it came right down to putting together the all time list, Macho Man stayed at the top.

I'm not a die hard wrestling junkie like I was back in the 80s and 90s, but I am still a fan. I haven't bought a wrestling figure in a long time except on 4 occasions. 1. Was of the Million Dollar Man Ted DiBiase, he was signing autographs so I went into Toys R Us and got his figure for him to sign. The other figure, was of Andy Kaufman. But the one figure I most recently went far out of my way to find, was the Defining Moments figure of Macho Man. It was his figure from my favorite match ever, Macho Man Vs. Ultimate Warrior at Wrestlemania VII.

His matches and stories were always so engaging it would drive me insane. Back then, wrestling had a major hook. When two guys were feuding with each other, they wouldn't lay a hand on each other until the big PPV show. And if they did, it was always the villain of the story beating on our hero. Unlike today, where you see them fight every single week. I remember running to Safeway one night from my parents video store, because I heard the new issue of WWF Magazine was out and it had the photos of Flair with Miss Elizabeth.

I could go on and on about my fanboy love for "Macho Man" Randy Savage. How awesome it was to see him in Spiderman as Bonesaw McGraw. And to FINALLY have him in a current video game in WWE All Stars. In the end, it is now gonna be somewhat bittersweet and a little annoying because the WWE is FINALLY going to put him in their Hall Of Fame, where he has deserved to be for many years now. OOOOOOOOOOOOOOH YEEEEEEEAAAAAAAAAHHH!!

Everyone will be posting their favorite matches of him in their blogs and tweets, but I am going to share one of my all time favorite Randy Savage moments...





Update: Pro Wrestling News Macho Man Randy Savage Died in a Car Crash
Many of our other writers and blogs will be sharing their thoughts and memories. Stay tuned.

The 2011 Maxim Hot 100 - What Do You Think?

The time has come for the annual Maxim Hot 100 list, and there is a lot of interesting placement this year that will cause much discussion, debates, and arguments.  The first thing that stands out is that girls that got naked or had hot lesbian scenes in movies this year were rewarded with a top 10 rank.  Anne Hathaway got naked, very naked, in "Love and Other Drugs" so she earned her number 7 spot on the list.  Then of course there was the already legendary girl on girl scene between Natalie Portman and Mila Kunis, which earned them the number 8 and 5 spot respectively. 

Next up we have the somewhat surprising elements of the list.  Last years number 1, Megan Fox, dropped all the way to number 17.  Last year our own Random Villain posted his thoughts on women that were hotter than Megan Fox, well now there are officially 16 of them according to Maxim.  On top of that, Fox was replaced in the number 1 spot by Rosie Huntington Whiteley, who is also replacing her in the upcoming "Transformers 3."

To our surprise, Olivia Munn worked her way up to the number 2 spot this year.  Not that she isn't deserving, but we figured she was cooling off now that she is no longer on Attack of the Show and just had our NBC sitcom "Perfect Couples" cancelled.  Maybe around the time we posted that Olivia Munn wasn't nude in Playboy would've felt like less of a surprise.  But hopefully Munn takes it as a sign, everyone still thinks she's hot, and now she needs to make a bit of a comeback by getting naked somewhere. 

Here is this year's complete top 10 in the Maxim Hot 100, to check out the entire list check out Maxim.com.

10. Jennifer Lawrence
9. Cobie Smulders
8. Natalie Portman
7. Anne Hathaway
6. Bar Refaeli
5. Mila Kunis
4. Cameron Diaz
3. Katy Perry
2. Olivia Munn
1. Rosie Huntington Whiteley

Punish Bad Parenting!

I live in Phoenix AZ. Or as it seems to me, the Toddler Drowning Capital of the World! Not a week goes by where I don't read or see something in the news about a toddler drowning in the pool, or barely surviving falling in the pool. Seriously. It happens all the damn time here. And why? Because parents are idiots! Probably tweeting or texting or doing some other stupid crap instead of doing what they're supposed to be doing! Parenting!

I have a two year old. And we don't have a swimming pool at our house. When he was born my wife and I thought two things right away. 1, we need to move to a safer more family friendly neighborhood. And 2, a house without a pool. So we did! Now, my parents house, where he goes all the time, has a swimming pool, so like responsible people they have a fence installed around it. Now does that mean you should just let your kids run around all willy nilly? NO! They're kids, and its a fence, they figure shit out. So you still watch your kids! Fences around pools are just speed bumps. They will find a way inside of it somehow.

So, I think whenever someone has a toddler who has drowned, the parents should be punished for it. I bet you anything that the numbers of kids drowning every summer would plummet. Because people would start watching and paying attention to their kids. When we have a large family gathering at my parents house, my kid does not leave the same area I am in. And if he does, or I leave, I make sure my wife has eyes on him. It's not a hard task to do people. IF YOUR CHILD, DOES NOT KNOW HOW TO SWIM, DO NOT, LET THEM, WANDER AIMLESSLY NEAR SWIMMING POOLS. Holy crap.

This goes along with the driving rule. If someone gets into a car accident. The person who is at fault should have their license suspended for 2 years. The end. I bet you people will sure as shit stop driving like assholes then!

Man up lawmakers. Stop letting stupid people do stupid things. Thanks.

Thor. THOR!!!!!!!!!!

Pretty damn good. But I gotta say, for me it's just to the point where enough is enough and lets get to the Avengers already! I loved the acting in Thor, the story, everything. I just wanted more. And I guess that isn't a bad thing at all. But damnit I wanted more.

SPOILERS BELOW!

One thing I did love a lot about this movie that not many people have mentioned is all the nods to the previous Marvel movies. The mentions of Tony Stark, the subtle hints that Selvig knowing someone that worked with "gamma radiation". Loved all of it. The scene after the credits pretty much locked in who we could expect for our villain in The Avengers as well.

I left Thor wanting more and feeling a little bit like I didn't get everything I was hoping for. But I understand that the rest is on the way in 2012. And I will be a satisfied guy.

New On Netflix Intant: The Asylum strikes again!

Im a huge fan of Netflix Instant. I use it on my AppleTV and if I wasn't locked into a contract with DirecTV I would use Netflix as my main source of TV watching. But anyways, today brings us 1 movie and 1 movie only to the Watch It Now. And that movie is Battle Of Los Angeles.

No, I'm not talking about the surprise hit Battle: Los Angeles with Aaron Eckhart that came out a few months ago. I mean the rip off version from The Asylum! The Asylum is the company responsible for all the great SyFy Channel movies. See whenever a big movie comes out, The Asylum comes along and makes their own little version of it. Like Thor is now out but The Asylum went and made Almighty Thor starring Kevin Nash! Yeah, Diesel from the WWE! When Transformers came out, they made Transmorphers, Snakes On A Plane, they made Snakes On A Train. I love The Asylum so much. Anyways, if you're bored, drunk, and need a good laugh, you should probably check their movies out.

HBOGO for the iPhone, iPad and Android arrives.

HBO has done what I hope a lot of others follow in with. If you currently have HBO on your cable or satellite, you can have HBO on the go with you. See, HBOGO, it all comes together.

When you first download the free app, it asks you to set up an account. By logging in to your cable or satellite company, it will be checking to see if you currently have HBO in your package. If so, you're all set. I only played around with it a little bit but it has a pretty big library of movies that you can stream to watch. As well as all of HBO tv shows, and specials.

It doesn't just have the current hits either. It has old specials and TV shows as well. Like Band Of Brothers, Deadwood, and Carnivale! And it even has some of the "late night" movies. So you can take some softcore porn on the go! WOOT! And as for its movies, it has everything from Avatar, to Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles.

On nice thing is the watchlist feature. If a series is currently on TV, whenever it is ready for viewing it is added to your watchlist. It is almost like having a DVR on your iphone, ipad, or android smartphone. Almost. In a small tiny way.

Mr. Miyagi UFC Trainer featured on G4's Attack Of The Show!

Yeah, I'm gonna post some news on our own news. I can do that. Why? Because its my blog and I'm a jerk. The other night I sat here and cut together a little video showing Mr. Miyagi being a trainer for that Machida dude. (I don't watch UFC, I like my fighting scripted). Well I was expecting it to just be a little video to get some laughs between a few. Not expecting the explosion that followed.

It is now all over the net, even being featured today on G4s Attack Of The Show in their Around The Net segment where it was #1.

So a huge thanks to the G4 people for featuring this video on their show. And a very big thanks to FilmDrunk.com for being the first site to pick up on this video. When will another video like it come along? Don't know, need something awesome to happen in sports that could tie in with a movie.

Video: Lyoto Machida Learned the Crane Kick from Mr. Miyagi

UFC 129 delivered some great moments, but none more spectacular than the finish of the Lyoto Machida vs. Randy Couture fight. This fight was Couture's retirement fight, as he had announced that win, lose, or draw he would be done after this fight. Randy went out in grand fashion, although he was on the losing end of this fight.  

Lyotoa Machida won the fight with a crane kick to the face......yes, THAT crane kick. The announcers were shocked at the finish, saying it was one of the most memorable in UFC's history. Machida delivered the signature crane kick to Couture's face, and it was lights out from there. Commentator Joe Rogan seemed astonished to see what he described by name as the "crane technique."



Now all the questions can be answered.  While Machida credited Steven Seagal, we all know that the crane technique came from Okinawa by way of Mr. Miyagi!  Daniel Larusso used it to win the All-Valley tournament in 1984, and now UFC fighters are realizing the magic of Miyagi family karate.  Now after all these years, we know that the crane kick is NOT a fake move that was invented for the Karate Kid movie, and is a legit destructive move that wins MMA fights......see for yourselves:

**Update** We want to thank FilmDrunk.com and all of our fans who have helped make this mashup a huge viral success.  UFC + Karate Kid = best mashup ever.**

Osama Bin Laden is Dead

Osama Bin Laden is dead, supposedly. And apparently he was killed by a U.S. strike and his body is in U.S. custody.

While Osama Bin Laden was one of the biggest jerks of all-time, the jerks here will not shed a tear. Most of us are pretty happy with this development. Personally, it all feel a little anticlimatic to me. I can't really get myself to get too excited about it to be honest.

It's likely the guy was responsible for a hell of a lot of death and violence over his lifetime, and I'm sure the world is a better place without him.. But I'm not really sure what this means in the grand scheme of things.

Update: Here is a source for the death of Bin Laden. Whenever we run a breaking news story we try to supply a link from a serious news source, such as TMZ: Osama Bin Laden Dead

Rebecca Black - Friday: Why The Internet Is Retarded

You've heard it. Everyone has. And everyone hates it. So if everyone hates it, why have you heard it?

See, the internet is full of stupid people. They hate something, so they talk about it. And because they don't shut the fuck up about it, it gets more and more popular. I would have never known about this video if people weren't making fun of it. Its like complaining about something yet you keep watching it. If you hate it, don't watch it, don't talk about it, and it won't become popular. Yet every message board on the internet has this damn video on it. And because of people hating it, they have in turn made it popular.

I don't hate this song, or this video. I don't like it either. I don't care about it at all. See when I dislike something, I ignore it. Yet little retards on the internet, have to go insane over how much they hate it to everyone else they talk to, and it spreads, and then its popular and they cry and whine about how something so shitty became popular.

SHUT THE HELL UP RETARDS. IF YOU HATE SOMETHING, IGNORE IT, AND THE WORLD WILL BE A BETTER PLACE.

FRIDAY 4 LIFE BITCHES.

Should We Resurrect the old Unemployed Winners?

As I alluded to in our previous post about the Unemployed Winner, we know a bunch of jerks who were Unemployed Winners back in the day.

I consider myself an OG Unemployed Winner, and I'm thinking about getting the band back together. Bunch of Jerks pretty much serves as our hub and our catchall dump for blog posts that don't have a natural home. So it's not like we are taking away from this place.

We will keep bringing you up to date about our latest adventures, like pondering the cultural significance of Sonic Drink Combos, hosting movie podcasts, and blogging about wrestling news and reality shows.

Being Unemployed, Award Winning Jerks allows us to pursue our dreams of finding the perfect pseudo-gourmet fast food burger and talking shit about entertainment and movies.

Unemployed Winner Charlie Sheen and The Original Unemployed Winners

Unemployed Winner? I see that Charlie Sheen aka screen legend and men's advice columnist Carlos Estevez has joined twitter. His bio says "Unemployed Winner.

This sounds very familiar. I seem to recall a bunch of Unemployed Winners who had a site 5-6 years ago. Also, there was that guy the Unemployed LOSER.

Carlos isn't the first unemployed winner and he won't be the last. I don't know what to say about his personal life right now, but the guy is a source of entertainment. I think, on some level, he might be the winner in his dispute with Chuck Lorre and Warner Bros. Hopefully he enjoys his life and finds some time for his health at some point.

More Unemployed Winner news to come. Stay Tuned...

New Back to the Future Game Review

I believe this post may very well have been in the making for well over 20 years now.  I'll first point out that I was a casual fan of the Back to the Future movies.  The first one was great, and the second one was very fun and different in that it really had me thinking that hover boards would be a regular form of transportation by now.  The third one I thought was decent, but I feel like I really watched the first two more.  I wasn't a fanatic of the series like some people, but I really enjoyed it.

When I heard there was a game on the way, total confusion set in.  Hardly ever do we get video games based on classic movies like this.  Granted in the 80's, almost all the big movies had video games....including Back to the Future.  I point this out, because the Back to the Future game for NES f'n SUCKED.  You watch a movie, get excited to see there's a game for it, then BAM....a stupid game that's hard as hell and really doesn't have shit to do with the actual movie.  Games like that are probably what killed the idea of making games based on movies long ago.

The Back to the Future game on PSN brings back the "game based on movie" idea, and this game has been done right.  This game is exactly how a game based on a movie should be.  The events pick up 6 months after Doc headed off to the wild west at the end of Back to the Future 3, and has Marty having to help Doc out of more trouble he's gotten himself into in the past.  The voice acting is great, as Christopher Lloyd returns as Doc, and Marty is voiced by a great Michael J. Fox impersonator that is DEAD on.  The game itself is a "figure it out" type game that has Marty collecting objects and talking to people to figure out what to do. If you've played the "Monkey Island" series of games, Telltale Games develops Back to the Future as well, so you know the type of gameplay I'm talking about.

The games story plays perfectly in line with what you would see in a fourth sequel of the series, with all  the classic characters included.  Keep in mind, only part ONE of this five part series is available now, but this first part felt complete on it's own and has me looking forward to more.  You can get the whole bundle for 20 bucks on PSN, which gives you the first part of the game and also includes the next 4 as they come out.  This was a great deal, as I expected each chapter to have its own price, but they've given us a great deal with the whole game being 20 bucks.  If you are a Back to the Future fan and have always wanted a game based on it, this is a must-play game, even if you are a casual fan like me.  Here's to hoping Telltale Games gives us more movie game greatness, as there is a huge list that could make AWESOME games in this style (The Goonies REALLY comes to mind.)

Newsflash: Perez Hilton Has Turned Face

I think this may be the one and only time I would ever post ANYthing on Perez Hilton, and I only do because of the history of this very site.  You see four years ago, long before I was hired to write here, a site by the name of DevonLohan.com was born and made waves pretty much from its inception.  I actually have the......honor, of being the final writer to be hired by that site.  DevonLohan.com had great potential and was beginning to gain a real following, so I figured I could come on board and contribute as we prepared to take the site to the next level.  Unfortunately, sabotage struck, as the character "Devon Lohan" was taken very seriously by one of the writers who had caused much turmoil over the years and the site had to close up shop due to his many unprofessional actions.  When I joined with this renegade group of bloggers, I was given the crash course in all of the history, and the state of the site sounded like something from a reality show.  Bunch of Jerks was born from all of that, but let us not forget the origins of DevonLohan.com

The guys who launched DevonLohan.com simply had an idea... "If Perez Hilton can get famous by putting together a super gay blog where he talks shit on everyone....why can't we do the same......aside from being gay."  So a site with a bright pink layout, a mega gay character as the mascot of sorts (seen on the right,) and posts packed with attitude was launched.  The site didn't need to draw cum dribble on every picture it presented, and would actually feature posts that people cared about rather than a bunch of gay asshole babble.  Perez was the gay asshole, Devon Lohan were the assholes that were straight but thought Perez sucked and didn't deserve any of the attention he got.  As DevonLohan.com launched, a war of the words was waged with fans of Perez who were outraged that there was a new site in town that didn't talk shit just for the sake of talking shit.

Now for historical purposes, we can report that Perez Hilton has officially been punked out, and has decided to turn face and love everyone.  As the story goes, Jennifer Aniston happened to run into Perez, and basically just asked him why he is so mean.  When confronted face to face, Perez pussed out as expected, and has now "seen the light" by now only making nice posts and not talking shit.  With all this "anti-bullying" stuff going on, ol' gay Perez didn't want everyone punking him for it so he tapped out.  Goes to show Perez is and always has been just a huge attention whore, so now he's getting more attention from everyone praising him for not being mean anymore.....wtf is this 1st grade? 

Our origins were based on Perez Hilton being a dumb ass who somehow became famous, and we remain strong in our stance that Perez sucks and is a fake ass bitch.  While the DevonLohan years are over (who wanted to be stuck in pink gayville anyway,)  this is the closure that seals it all.  If you don't enjoy posts with attitude and still need a little gay in your life, be sure to visit the all new gay version of TMZ......aka PerezHilton.com.

In closing, after much consideration I have decided to include the following video.  The following video will be the ONLY time you will see Perez Hilton on BunchOfJerks.com.  I include this video only because it is Perez himself declaring A. his boy crush on Justin Bieber (HUGE shock) and B. how he has changed, and loves everyone forever and everrrrrrrrr.
