Rise & Shine: The Internet Told Me So…

Rise & Shine: The Internet Told Me So…

August 19, 2008 by Libby Send to a Friend Send to a Friend

….where we rip off the best of the internet and present it to you as a precious gift-post, topped with a bow we bought pre-tied from CVS and attached with an adhesive strip, ready to go and be consumed with your first coffee/tea/quickie of the day. Voila! Morning magic! On rotation

  • “From Georgetown’s ultraexclusive conservative bars to U Street’s liberal haunts, socializing in D.C. is more politically polarized than ever”… W Magazine!!!!?!?!
  • Did you hear about the Phelps conspiracy??! I almost find Michael Phelps as annoying (Vote Here.) as I hate Lance Armstrong who deliberatley cheats…
  • Howard Zinn’s (swoon, huge crush) classic “A People’s History of the United States” in graphic novel form!

  • See how awesome you’d look if you actually had been cool enough to crimp your hair or have that dope weave.
  • What U.S. Inmates make for you: they package your Starbucks coffee, make mouses for microsoft, and stitch Victoria’s Secret line of leisure wear….

and video of the day:

what’s this about Lance cheating?
and how is Michael Phelps annoying? the fact that he loves his mom and gives her credit for his success as his inspiration or the fact that he keeps breaking world records?

so i was friends with a bunch of swimmers at Michigan and have had numerous run-ins with Phelps … he’s a bigger douche than you’ve even imagined ….

my favorite story, friend was making out with him and made the decision she’d rather go home than actually hook-up with him, so she tells him she’s leaving, and he kinda begs a little, but she’s still going to leave, so he pulls the classic where he whips his dick out and says “are you sure?” …. at which point she came downstairs, informed the party of what happened, and everyone laughed at him

michael phelps can kiss my ass

eddie Says:

if he did, you’d talk about it more than the media has been talking about his golds

Libby Says:

dan, that story is amazing.

Michael Says:

Michael Phelps has bad teeth. Maybe with all that gold he can sell it and get some braces.

Lily Says:

he’s well aware of his ears
since he’s been bullied for them since childhood
so he’s probably aware of his nose and teeth too

but none of them are a problem for his self esteem
and he’s still a badass swimmer all around

and he had ADHD, what a way to overcome

Libby Says:

It’s more of a feat to type on a computer than to swim with ADHD. What a way for me to overcome.

What’s with you and phelps anyway there are hotter male swimmers.

Nicole Says:

Also. Lets please not forget his DUI.

eddie Says:

the hotter ones didn’t win the u.s. 8 golds

the media coverage of phelps and swimming in general because of the phelps coverage has been a little annoying, but give dude some cred, even if he did pull out his frat penis at a party

August 19, 2008 at 2:49 pm
Nicole Says:

and yes. there are plenty of swimmers hotter than phelps. ryan lochte is one.

Michael Says:

ADHD is the most stupidest fucking thing in the world. People overcome having their tits lopped off due to cancer. People overcome having their legs blown off by an IED. People overcome spending 50 years in jail before being released because it’s discovered they didn’t do the crime. People overcome by eating clay, grass and cornstarch baked into cakes because they’re fucking starving to death. People overcome by surviving after their limbs were lopped off by marauders when they were 3 years old.

People don’t overcome watching TV and reading a magazine and talking on the phone at the same time. ADHD is a gay baby excuse.

is that why I’m gay? well damn now I can tell my parents it’s because of my ADHD!!

all this talk about michael phelps is annoying. props to him for his amazing swimming skills and success though. I’d rather hear about the many other atheletes (ie. his team members) who may not be winning as many medals, but are just as important.

eddie Says:

geez, michael.

so, nicole and libby, if you had a the choice between a hot guy with a 3-inch noodle who utterly sucked in the sack and an average-looking guy who was hung like a pack-mule and could stuff you like johnny holmes, you’d take the hot one?

or maybe you had to enter one of two cars in a race (and had a million frogskins on the line) - you could have either a beautiful ferrari with a blown header or a beat-up-looking miata with a super-tight race kit. you’d take the ferrari?

or….

eddie Says:

nicole, let’s please DO forget his dui. i don’t think a person should be judged for life by one mistake like that. it’s not like he killed somebody.

fyi - i have never had a dui

“and an average-looking guy who was hung like a pack-mule and could stuff you like johnny holmes,”

Eddie - want to tell us how you have this insider information?

August 19, 2008 at 3:31 pm
Libby Says:

I would take the 1972 MG roadster, racing green please. If only they had back seat for my hot well endowed and highly skilled boyfriend.

August 19, 2008 at 3:31 pm
Libby Says:

we would both take turns driving it drunk
