Pope Tells Church He Worked As Bouncer At Buenos Aires Nightclub

by The Huffington Post News Editors
Erin H

i guess i don't think of priests as having other jobs. i thought this was the onion at first.

There was a time when Pope Francis couldn't turn the other cheek: He once worked as a bouncer at a Buenos Aires nightclub, he told parishioners at a local church in Rome on Sunday.

It marked the first time the pontiff discussed his doorman gig since becoming pope, NBC's "Today" reports.

The Catholic leader was listing some of his former jobs, which included teaching and chemistry lab work, during a visit to San Cirillo Alessandrino church, as reported by Catholic News Service. But it was his mention of being a bar enforcer that caught the attention of many.

Dudes Are Such Whiny Baby Liars About Girls With Short Hair

Hahaahaaaaahahahaahhaahahahaaha, oh, dudes. It seems like every few weeks some goofball on the internet writes another "article" about how evil women are ruining their crotch-feels by cutting off our long, sexual hair. Leaving aside the fact that YOUR OPINION IS IRRELEVANT BECAUSE OTHER PEOPLE'S HAIR NEITHER BELONGS TO YOU NOR EXISTS FOR THE PURPOSES OF YOUR BONER, to those dudes I would just like to say: looolooololololoolololllllooooolol, you fucking LIARS.

Christina Ricci Is Going to Be Awesome in Lifetime's Lizzie Borden Biopic

Between Witches of East End and the Donatella Versace and Anna Nicole Smith biopics, Lifetime is THE television channel for fun, campy programming about fascinating/batshit women. Now the network is continuing that streak by releasing the poster for their movie about Massachusetts' best cultural export, Lizzie Borden. The movie, entitled Lizzie Borden Took an Ax, features a very a mischievous-looking Christina Ricci, who is entirely unconcerned about getting her parents' blood on the bottom of her cute nightgown. Check out the full poster at Entertainment Weekly.

Rat Poison, Family Feuds, Secrets: The Tragic Death of Brittany Murphy

Rat Poison, Family Feuds, Secrets: The Tragic Death of Brittany Murphy

Brittany Murphy, the actress perhaps best known for her work as the lovable Tai in Clueless, died on December 20, 2009 at the young age of 32. At the time, her death was breathlessly reported; despite the fact that her career had taken a bit of a hit in her final years and persistent rumors of her having possible substance abuse issues, Murphy was young and vibrant enough that no one was prepared for her to die. So when news broke earlier today that she actually might have been poisoned, it was just the latest bizarre twist in a saga that's clearly not ready to be put to bed just yet.

Netflix saves The Killing one more time, six-episode final season will be a streaming exclusive

by Richard Lawler
Erin H

i honestly don't understand why this show wasn't more popular, it was SO GOOD. a really unique story, good writing, good characters, great actors.

Netflix saves The Killing one more time, sixepisode final season will be a streaming exclusive

Netflix already pulled whodunnit The Killing from the scrap pile once, working out a deal with AMC to produce a third season for airing and subsequent streaming, and now it's done it again. The Killing will see a fourth and final six-episode season (when is still up in the air), produced by Fox, which Netflix will stream exclusively in the areas where it provides service. This, along with continued hints of more Arrested Development in the works will probably get fans of other canceled/about-to-be canceled series excited, although we'll have to wait and see how many refurb projects Netflix is ready to put next to its original content.

I Fought the Law, A Photo Series That Illustrates Bizarre State Laws

by EDW Lynch

I Fought the Law by Olivia Locher

In Alabama it’s illegal to have an ice cream cone in your back pocket at all times.

“I Fought the Law” is a photo series that illustrates (and often violates) bizarre state laws like a Texas prohibition on unusual kid’s haircuts and California law that bans biking in pools. The series is by New York City photographer Olivia Locher.

In California nobody is allowed to ride a bicycle in a swimming pool.

A Delicious Way to Serve Butter — Tips from The Kitchn

by Faith Durand
Erin H

not that i am knocking the idea (because i am totally going to do it), but "a delicious way to serve butter"?? BUTTER IS DELICIOUS ALREADY. this blogger is obviously not fat enough to write about food. i'd have gone with "ANOTHER delicious way to serve butter".

Pin_it_button

Serving butter at the holiday table is often an afterthought. I don't always put butter on my bread, so the moment when I remember it is when my butter-loving father-in-law comes to dinner and peers expectantly around the table, quietly looking for the butter dish. But for this Thanksgiving dinner I'm sharing with you this week, I wanted to do something a little more special and delicious. It takes approximately five seconds, and everyone raved.

Here's a thought: What if you never had to approach a cheese counter again with that blank stare, grasping for words in an effort to describe that one cheese you had the other day? It was what, "kinda creamy, but not too runny, and maybe with a pinkish rind, and I don't know... it was just really, really good... but I can't remember the name." Sound familiar?

We've all been there. So now, consider this remedy.
