Attendance at the Times Square New Year’s Eve party was down. Some blamed the cold weather, others say if New Yorkers want to watch a ball drop they’ll watch the Jets’ Mark Sanchez.

Kim Kardashian and Kanye West are expecting. Rumor has it they will name the baby Storm. Short for Perfect Storm of Doucheness.

The Chicago Bears fired head coach Lovie Smith. Apparently they weren’t feeling the Lovie.

A study indicates men addicted to online porn suffer short-term memory loss. Hey, guys, what did I just say?

In Florida, a 50-year-old woman was arrested for beating her 32-year-old boyfriend for finishing mutual oral sex too early. In other words, he unchained his Django too soon.

You start to think you can’t use the bathroom, or your phone, or the TV or your car.
