Don’t those words sound strange together: “Suge Knight’s assailant”? The beatifically smiling young man, above, is, allegedly, he: Greg the Barber, or, as he is popularly now known, the Man Who Cold Knocked Suge Knight Both Out and Flat On His Behind.

CNN covers a protest outside of the Marietta GA bar selling OBAMA IN ’08 shirts adorned with the Curious George picture, above.

I’m not quite sure what Sony was trying to say about Playstation 3 aficionados with this European Playboy ad. (Sony has done some seriously confused marketing over the entire nex-gen cycle.)

I’m not even sure if this qualifies as NSFW, but, anyway, the entire ad is after the jump. (Thanks, Joystiq.)

Introducing the dance remix of Bill O’Reilly’s now notorious, “twenty years old” hissy fit, obviously just as NSFW as is Bill.

I saw Amy Poehler’s toothsome chomp into Clinton’s soft, white underbelly this past weekend on SNL, and it was, indeed, hilarious. But The Huffington Post rocked this still frame hard enough to make me stand back, and re-see the beauty of the moment.

Thanks to Ebog Jonson for alerting me to another brilliant mash-up from fellow WBAI-er Jay Smooth, of ill doctrine fame.

Here, Obama supporter, Democratic Party leader, and movie gangster Marcellus Wallace smoke-filled-rooms with Hillary Clinton, letting her know in the very smoothest, frankest, most curse-laden language possible that she needs to take a fall.

“They’re itty-bitty things about the size of fleas, and they’re just running everywhere,” said Patsy Morphew of Pearland, who is constantly sweeping them off her patio and scooping them out of her pool by the cupful. “There’s just thousands and thousands of them. If you’ve seen a car racing, that’s how they are. They’re going fast, fast, fast. They’re crazy.”

That’s a T-shirt, above, being sold and distributed by Mike Norman, 63, proprietor of Mulligan’s Food & Spirits in Marietta GA.

The image is of children’s book character Curious George. Some may remember a caller to Rush Limbaugh’s radio show, back in March, reporting that his twelve-year-old daughter had said Obama looks like the famed chimp. Must be in the air.

What does it mean, conceptually, when the class valedictorian, at a school created to educate Black men, is white?

If you’ve never considered this question, your time to answer it is already up: Meet Joshua Packwood, representing Morehouse College this Sunday as the school’s first white val in its 141-year history.

BMW’s Certified Pre-Owned car ads have been running for some time now, but I’ve yet to tire (rimshot) from this actress’s performance, as the wife who believes her husband has been bait-and-switched into buying a new ride.
