Nerds Gone Wild (added by Tyler on 01.12.2011)
Everybody watches TV, or reads books, or goes to a movie and sees something amazing and bat shit crazy and then says, “Oh I could totally do that” (I do it with pornography). The notable exception? Comic books. Unless you’re from a distant dying star system or have a power ring or get bit or hit with some kind of cosmic ray or radiation chances are you’ll never be able to fly, shoot lasers, or touch a female’s breast. But then came the powerless superheroes. Batman, Iron Man, Green Hornet… ordinary men took it upon themselves to vanquish evil in the world. Nerds everywhere read this and thought… “I could TOTALLY do that”. The thing is though, being a rich white guy is basically a super power.

ICING: When Bros Become Foes (added by Steve on 11.11.2010)
If you haven’t heard of icing you probably haven’t heard of Twilight either. The biggest difference between the two is that while each is pretty gay; men only acknowledge that fact in one of these horrible phenomenons. Icing is the drinking game version of the finger circle punch game (http://wikibin.org/articles/finger-circle-punch-game.html) where you trick someone into looking at your hand and then you get to punch him. Icing is very similar, except that it involves drinking something that tastes like Ryan Seacrest’s urine....

'Jersey Shore' Cast Goes On Strike, Writes Books {from Yahoo! TV Blog} (added by Steve on 07.19.2010)
The cast of "Jersey Shore" is said to be close to a deal after going on strike over contract negotiations. While it's unknown whether these increased demands are as high as Snooki's pouf, The Hollywood Reporter says MTV will soon get the gang back for somewhere around $30,000 per episode - a 200 percent increase over last season.
Most of the uber-tan, disgruntled cast reportedly went on strike over the weekend, refusing to shoot new "Jersey Shore" scenes until they got a more lucrative contract deal. MTV was trying to keep most of the "Shore" residents earning $10,000 an episode (i.e., what they made during the already-filmed but yet-to-be-aired second season).
The cast, however, reportedly feels like MTV is tricking them out of money by filming what will essentially be Season 3 and calling it the second half of Season 2. The production company naturally isn't too happy with the strike, and a source close to the show says if push comes to shove, they are willing to dump the cast and start from scratch.
That hard-line approach may not apply to breakout star Mike "The Situation" Sorrentino, however. MTV has already offered The Sitch a one-time $60,000-$180,000 bonus if he signs on for a possible fourth season. But The Situation, Snooki, and Pauly D are the select few breakout stars MTV is willing to bargain with. As for the rest of the cast, the "Jersey Shore" producers aren't bearing these troubles lightly. "The show is not about famous rich people with managers coming to the Shore," a source told TMZ.
