People I Hate

Cripes, what a day. I'm tired, beaten up from last night's hockey game, and cranky as all get out. Basically, it's business as usual around here. Strap yourselves in!

Philadelphia City Council

These morons, following the lead of their fellow morons in New York City, approved a new ordinance which will ban trans fats from area restaurants. This slippery slope - made even more slippery with that delicious lard - means that soon City Council can pretty much ban anything they believe is "bad for you." I can see the hearings now: "We have found that Guinness Draught can contribute to liver cancer, so we are banning it from all restaurants and bars." Please. Typical Democrat tripe. You people aren't smart enough to make your own choices, so we'll do it for you. Maybe it's just me, but I think the 400 or so homicides in this berg last year are a bigger issue than what the local chefs are using to cook our meals.

Prince Frederic von Anhalt

This guy isn't just a tool; he's an entire tool shed. And now he's claiming that he is the mystery father of Anna Coffin-hole Smith's baby:

"The claim by Prince Frederic von Anhalt comes amid a paternity suit over Smith's 5-month-old daughter, Dannielynn. The birth certificate lists Dannielynn's father as attorney Howard K. Stern, but former Smith boyfriend Larry Birkhead is waging a legal challenge, saying he is the father." (H/T - Yahoo! News)

This is a truly ballsy move, huh? He doesn't say a bloody thing until Smith is word food, then is yapping his inane tale to anyone who will listen. Oh, and did I mention that the 59-year old von Anhalt is Zsa Zsa Gabor's current husband? 59? Wow, considering her choice of husbands, Smith was robbing the cradle.

Russell Crowe

Crikey, this guy is an a-hole! Don't believe me? Then read on:

"SYDNEY, Australia (AP) -- Russell Crowe says his rugby league club's cheerleading squad is being cut because skimpily clad cheerleaders detract from the game and make spectators uncomfortable. The Oscar-winning actor, who is part-owner in the South Sydney Rabbitohs club, said the club had become concerned that the cheerleaders -- whose uniform includes fishnet stockings and tasseled miniskirts in the white, green and red team colors -- were inappropriate entertainment." (Yahoo! Sports)

Inappropriate? But I guess getting drunk, trashing hotel rooms, and throwing cell phones at peasant workers is acceptable? Fellow readers, I ask you: is this uniform inappropriate?
