A recap of Chad Ochocinco’s ‘The Ultimate Catch,’ Episode 3. Katie the Hot Dumb Redhead would have won it all if she hadn’t done that “born-again virgin” BS. [With Leather]
In case you missed everything at Comic-Con. Here’s every television-related story published by The Hollywood Reporter’s Live Feed over the course of the convention. [THR]
That’s great, but I’m still confused. The Inception infographic. Much like the movie, it involved me staring and thinking really hard. [FilmDrunk]
Is your car insured against bears? You’ll want to make sure after you see the photos and video of a car that was stolen and destroyed by a bear in Colorado. This is a real story, I promise. [Gamma Squad]
Surprise! Snooki has read two books her entire life. The lede from this astoundingly bitchy article about “Jersey Shore’s” breakout star: “FLAKE, cow, loser, slut, idiot, airhead, trash, penguin, creep, moron, midget, freak, Oompa-Loompa, nobody.” I guess the Old Gray Lady is too good to print “c*mdumpster.” [New York Times]
Liam Neeson and Susan Sarandon join premium cable shows. Neeson will be in Showtime’s “The C Word” with Laura Linney; Sarandon will be on HBO’s “The Miraculous Year.” [Pajiba]
‘Mad Men’ Power Rankings, Episode 401. Mark Lisanti’s excellent column returns, having moved from MovieLine to his Tumblr account. [Mark Lisanti]

Dildo is about 2 hours from where I grew up, a town called “Paradise” (I shit you not) in Newfoundland. They had to bolt down their town signs because people kept stealing them.
Other great Newfie town names:
Joe Batt’s Arm
Come By Chance
Carbonear
Foxtrap (that’s where I went to school)
and yes…Upper Dildo
Go ahead. Have at er.
Thank God I was not the only person who found that the NY Times journalist writing the Snooki piece came off as completely insufferable. She has a place way up on the list of people I would not want to be stuck in a room with.
There’s even a song about it: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vpycgIlhJXs
Did you see Vincent Chase?
Do you have to take a “fairy” to get there?
Your mom and I had a nice time there.
I’ve been to Dildo. Its in Canada, seriously about 20 Miles from Spread Eagle…
