I'll be heading to the annual Calgary Comic & Entertainment Expo on Friday, so I'll finally have the chance to rub elbows with all your favourite nobodies like Felicia Day and Jonathan Frakes. I'm kind of at a loss for what to talk to these sort-of-celebrities about, though, so I'd like some input. Check out the guest list for the expo here and leave a comment with something you'd like me to ask/tell/give to any of the scheduled attendees.

Should I ask Tia Carrere how many executives she had to sleep with to get on Relic Hunter, or perhaps I should ask Teddy Wilson what it's like to be overshadowed by a former YTV host. You decide!*

* I reserve the right to not embarrass myself in front of people whom are more famous than myself, so I probably won't take your erotic drawing of Hellraiser's Pinhead to Doug Bradley.

Adam Mansbach is the auther of "Go the Fuck to Sleep," a children's book for those who've lost their patience with that screaming little monster in the next room. What the hell do you want from me!? Is it so important that you eat every day!? Maybe I should give you back to your real mother and let her deal with you!

Now there's going to be an audio book version read by Samuel L. Jackson. Any child of Mace Windu would be the most badass offspring ever conceived. When playing peek-a-boo he'd pull out a gun and tell you to say "where's baby" one more time, and his bottle would have "Bad Mother Fucker" written on it.

Some people have told me that they've been seeing some rather . . . let's say bizarre ads appearing on the site. Stuff like gay dating websites and what have you. I personally have not seen these ads, and I'm pretty sure that gay dating isn't relevant to the content on this site. But Adsense actually serves ads based on site content and user interest (i. e. what Google has recorded you searching in your perverted free time) by default, so there's that to consider.

I've disabled interest-based ads now, so hopefully your Google image search results will stop affecting what shows up in the ad blocks here.

Update: I've just realized that, now that I've mentioned gay dating two (three) times in this post, it'll probably start popping up in the ads again anyway. So I hope you enjoy staring at chiseled man-bodies for the next couple of days.

Steven Seagal has done many things in his career: he's been an actor, an environmentalist, a deputy sheriff and even spent a week as god; but did you know that he's also in a blues band called Thunderbox and that he'll be hosting Bluestock this August in New York?

Action star Steven Seagal has also joined Bluestock’s lineup as a special co-host of the Festival and performer along with his blues band Thunderbox. Seagal has played guitar since the age of 12 and released his first album, the blues-inspired Songs from The Crystal Cave, in 2004. (Bluestock)

I can't see anything wrong with this: Seagal is old, fat and brown, so he's the perfect choice to host a blues festival. The only better option would be Ricky Gervais because I hear he's great at hosting things.

Doug TenNapel, the self proclaimed creator of Earthworm Jim, now runs an online comic called Ratfist. In the comments section of page 99 of his comic, TenNapel decided to speak up about his views on Christianity and homosexuality. Read the title of this post one more time and take a guess as to what his comments were like.

But in America (and this would be alien to Canada and Europe) we have a thing called freedom of Religion, freedom of expression, freedom of creed and freedom of speech. It is specifically our right to hold our “minority” religion and vote accordingly that makes America unique. So though the majority thinks every church ought to be forced to perform gay weddings, the minority traditional religious perspective is protected by the Constitution…and be careful how you undermine that right because it’s the same place where we find our right to be our race, be our sex and be treated equal to others. ANd the rights of the minority in this instance are in tact. Everyone, regardless of sexual identity, has the right to marry someone of the opposite sex. That’s the law, it’s fairly applied to all. There are minority groups that are for multiple marriage partners, and we put those more controversial ideas up for a vote. Nobody seems to mind the outcome of those results when they’re in fashion with pop-culture.

In a later comment, he also mentions that the 78.5% of Americans who are Christian are "why [Americans] kick ass," and that his reason for opposing gay marriage is "the same argument [he has] against letting a man take a dump in the ladies room" (supposedly so that we don’t hear what girls talk about while they pee).

Now, I’ve met Doug TenNapel in person and he seemed like a really nice guy to me. We chatted about Earthworm Jim and how he and Interplay were planning the fourth game for the Wii. Then he talked about how Interplay originally wanted to do a quick-and-dirty sequel to make some fast cash but—Mr. TenNapel? He’s a pretty cool guy who won’t stand for such trash. He told them that if they wanted to do a sequel to Jim, they’d have to do it up proper.

Then, when I took to the Internet to tell people how cool he was for standing up to his publisher, Doug TenNapel called me a liar. So fuck that bigot. I hope this ruins his career.

Macho Man Randy Savage passed away today after suffering a heart attack while driving a motor vehicle in Florida. He is survived by his wife and wrestling manager Elizabeth Ann Hulette—best known by her stage name Miss Elizabeth—who was also in the vehicle but suffered only minor injuries; and his son Fred Savage, the kid from The Wonder Years.
