I think we need a place to amass all the goofy chit that appears in the news on a daily basis. I face palm a lot of what I read. I know I'll get a kick out of other's posts. Here's the start:

Umm... they already did this a few years ago.

They called it a "sequel", but it had a completely different cast and basically told the same story over again.

Well if they're gonna remake Footloose and turn Teen Wolf into a gritty TV show, might as well do this one too.

Well, that's why we don't want them living in sin, right? ;)

Silly? Yeah, likely so, but no more than the Tinky Winky stinky of a few years back.

I don't think they are. It's more a "friends with benefits" thing. ;)
