Yes it's CHRISTMAS. Sadly I have no witty introductory paragraph yet again this week, so let's get straight to some holiday Hollywood news! And I just realized I probably should have done some sort of Mayan Apocalypse gimmick this week, but that was played out back in '09 when they made that shitty movie with John Cusak. I saw that movie for free on FX one day and wanted my money back. Speaking of John Cusak, why does he remind me so much of Ted from How I Met Your Mother? And why does Ted make me feel like I am watching a version of myself come to life? WHY AM I RAMBLING?!?
Quick note to all of you cWo Dads out there: Don't let your kids wind up like this poor soul on Christmas morning :(
