Vote, Or Diddy Will Personally Kill You

Get Your Vote On

Sorry if today’s header was “soooo last year,” but we spent a lot of time these past few weeks linking articles and forcing jokes about issues and candidates, so now it’s your turn to do something. Vote. Yeah, it’s pretty easy. Here is The Plain Dealer’s quick update on the voting situation in Cleveland.

Look Who’s Blogging…

Oh, shit!! This is like the Holy Grail of internet laughs. Just when the name Carl Monday was finally drifting from your conscious into your sub-conscious and you thought it was safe to masturbate in the library again, everyone’s favorite second-rate Cleveland celeb is back and begging for assholes like us to unleash a sarcastic tirade on his mustached ass. So without further ado, here we go…

Little ol’ Carl’s got himself a blog and he’s not afraid to use it! But, here is the thing about it; this shit seriously brings into question how this guy ever became a journalist. This page is so full of typos (“an Ashland man drives 60 miles to take car of a ticket in person”), spelling mistakes (attemps), and sentence fragments (“A great example of how a local television station can reach out to the community.”) that an editor would run out of red ink just trying to fix it up. Still, this is a rare gem, a diamond in the rough, and a reliable source for laughs. Do yourself a favor and read his take on the Daily Show piece about him. It’s right here! Do it! Now!

Maybe We Should Build a Fence

A new documentary, “2000 Miles North,” looks into Guatemalan immigrants in central Ohio. In typical Plain Dealer fashion, however, we are told the film is playing at the Ohio Independent Film Festival, but not when or where said festival is located. Kudos on answering the 5 Ws and H guys. Looks like I had to do a little extra work. Here’s the info.

Hold up, I just need to sneak this other blunder in here too. The Plain Dealer hosted a contest for artists to draw on coloring book style pics of Strickland, Blackwell, DeWine, and Brown. In the resulting news piece they talk about different entries and then state, “here are the winners.” Too bad there is nothing below that. I guess it is too difficult to put pictures on the internet.
