There was another mass shooting in America today, an occurrence now so bleakly common that we could probably just go back to one of our other stories about one and copy and paste some text here, instead of writing a new description. Today’s incident—which killed at least five people, and wounded many more—took place…
Early this morning President Donald J. Trump awoke and posted an extremely predictable tweet, attempting to shift the blame for GOP candidate Roy Moore’s disastrous showing in yesterday’s United States Senate special election to, as you might expect, not Donald Trump:
When Kathy Griffin got in trouble earlier this year for a poorly received gag about decapitating Donald Trump, the backlash was so swift and severe that CNN almost immediately cut ties with Griffin and fired her from her annual New Year’s Eve co-hosting gig with Anderson Cooper. Griffin apologized and explained that…
Next time you’re scrolling through your feed during one of the many inevitable political crises to come, pay special attention to how often you see the meme of a dog sitting in a burning house, saying, “This is fine.” Those two panels from KC Green’s 2013 webcomic “On Fire” perfectly encapsulate and poke fun at the…
The slow, public maddening of Anderson Cooper continued apace yesterday, when the CNN star—who recently talked about muting the White House on Twitter, and who launched a truly epic on-air eye roll at Kellyanne Conway when she recently attempted to parse the differences between “Candidate Donald Trump” and “President…
You know who’s had enough of this shit? Anderson Cooper has had enough of this shit. His recent announcement that muting Donald Trump on Twitter is good for your mental health proves that his tolerance for people spouting empty-headed idiocies has dropped dramatically since the days when he was host of dimwitted…
Although their charred complexions might be confusing for some folks, Donald Trump is not Freddy Krueger, and he still exists whether you turn your back and tell him he’s not real or not. (Hell, that didn’t even work on Freddy in the sequels.) That being said, muting Trump on Twitter is probably good for your mental…
It would seem that time has caught up with even the most seemingly indestructible band in rock history. After surviving decades of substance abuse, ego trips, and in-fighting (not to mention that Bee Gees movie), Aerosmith’s Steven Tyler and Joe Perry have taken to Twitter to announce that the veteran Boston combo…
Longtime Jeopardy! viewers know not to expect much from the show’s annual celebrity showdowns, but this week’s “Power Players” charity tournament promised slightly more impressive displays of trivia knowledge. At least, it started off that way on Monday with Jonathan Franzen, S.E. Cupp, and Chuck Todd all making it to…
Back in 2014, comedian Louis CK appeared on a fictional game show called Black Jeopardy! when he hosted Saturday Night Live for the second time. This spring, he’ll have a chance to test his wits on the real thing as one of 15 celebrity contestants on Jeopardy!’s 2016 “Power Players Week.” The episodes—to be taped in…
Bad Lip Reading tends to skewer sports and pop culture, transforming the ghastly moments of The Walking Dead, for example, into a hip-hop anthem-infused story of a man’s love for his turtle. But Bad Lip Reading has since turned its sights to a far more horrifying venue: the political arena.
“Every word in the following video is a direct quote from Donald Trump.” So goes the quite necessary disclaimer that precedes “Trump Kid For President,” a bracing bit of reality-based sketch comedy from FulariousTV in which freckle-faced child actor Andrew Fox portrays the 69-year-old real estate mogul, reality show…
A grown man has printed T-shirts telling another grown man to go fuck himself for making fun of his love of cats. Normally, that’s the sort of sentence you’d only read in a gossip sheet covering the social scene of an emotionally fraught comic book store. But because the cat-mocking man was TV host Anderson Cooper,…
