Say, have any of you ever noticed getting robo-zombie babe spam in your MySpace friends list? I’m talking about hot chicks who suddenly appear in your friends box, ones you’ve never approved. Amber. Glynis. Another Amber. A third Amber. An Amber with two Rs: Amberr.
So what is this, an actual spam virus that enters your MySpace account? It’s like I leave the account for a few minutes, and then — oh noes! Porn! Many buttcheeks.
In fact, I think MySpace might be the buttcheek capital of the social media universe.

An apparent fixture in the crime-ridden city for decades, Gotham City Pizzeria now has its own website.
From the site:
“I know this is controversial, but sometimes you have to take a stand. One day, when we were first expanding to lots of neighborhoods in Gotham, I picked up the day’s receipts from our shop in East End. The street lamps were out, and the sidewalk was deserted. Two thugs approached me and demanded money. I was too slow – and one of them pulled out a shotgun. Suddenly, they were gone. I looked up, and Batman had snatched them in his arms and was giving them a little dose of Gotham City Justice. From that moment on, we put special emphasis on making the streets around our locations safe – and business skyrocketed. Batman is an inspiration to all of us who want to take control of our own lives and fight back against the criminals of Gotham City. GCP supports Batman.”
No word if the oft-rumored bat-cannoli will be on the menu.

Displaying bumper stickers on your car makes you more likely to engage in road rage, according to researchers. Even if you sincerely want to save those whales.
Psychologists in Colorado analyzed hundreds of drivers and quizzed them about their cars and driving habits. Those drivers with more personal effects in their cars — such as bumper stickers – were 16% more likely to be road ragers, Nature News reports.
Why such a link? I’m no armchair analyst (actually, I am), but I would assume that the more personally invested you are in your car — the more you identify with the vehicle — the more likely you are to get pissed at crappy fellow drivers, gridlock, etc.
Am I close? Or is this study full of crapola?

For all of you who were left baffled, outraged, amused, or simply confused by the Sopranos series finale, a fellow WordPress blogger has broken it down for us — in what just might be the definitive explanation for the ending outside of David Chase (who’s not talking — well, at least not to us):
“This is the definitive explanation of why Tony died in Holsten’s in the final scene of The Sopranos. The following is based on a thorough analysis of the final season of the show and will clear up one of the most misunderstood endings in film or television history.”
What follows is a painstaking analysis of the last scene shot-by-shot (pun intended). Then the blogger analyzes the symbolism, bringing in references to other episodes in the series as well as 911 and the Kennedy assassination.
Will the post “The Sopranos: Definitive Explanation of THE END” put all speculation regarding this controversial episode at rest?
Read and decide.
