He also explains some about the Ensign affair and Coburn’s role. Florida Senator Bill Nelson is a member in good standing with the Family. “In ...

Last night, we ran some some exclusive new stills from "The Lovely Bones," writer/director Peter Jackson's adaptation of the 2002 novel by Alice Sebold. We've got a lot more pictures today... but they're in motion! In this clip, you get to see Stanley Tucci's creepy, serial killing neighbor appraising a possible next victim. Hopefully that little girl listens to her dog ...

If the concept of Pedobear wasn’t creepy enough for you here’s a Pedobear hoodie made by the folks at CalgaryCosplay. Somehow the boxiness of the mask along with the rather nice pair of breasts inside of it make it all the more creepy… and alluring. Oh god I’m so confused.

It's always kind of distressing to find something you agree with being said by people who also espouse views you find nutty, repulsive, or reprehensible. It doesn't make them any less right, but it makes it a little more difficult to be associated with those views. So, for instance, there's this broadside against ineffective math education, via Arts & Letters Daily. It's ...

The Electronic Frontier Foundation's international policy crimefighting duo, Eddan Katz and Gwen Hinze, have published a scholarly article analyzing the secret Anti-Counterfeiting Trade Agreement in light of US law and policy. Called "The Impact of ACTA on the Knowledge Economy," it was recently published in the Yale Journal of International Law, and constitutes a fantastic, ...

... we can all take a moment to oooh and aaaah Joanna Krupa being naked in the new issue of Playboy. Creepiness... over. Second level of creepiness... Joanna Krupa is on Ellen today... Borderline creepiness... over. Tonight is the semi-finals and it is scheduled to run a full two hours so that means there is going to be a ton of filler in the show. They all have to perform three full individual ...

... , other times just a little freaky to me, as if I was still a wee brat staying up late to watch Muppet Show reruns on YTV in the early nineties. Sometimes Uncle Deadly's creepiness is defused by realizing he's just as silly and hammy as every other Muppet, other times he just reminds me of Photoshopping a scary thing into an innocent picture for yucks, an equivalent to the "shit brix ...

... preview for Psycho, he took audiences on a tour of the Bates Motel and Bates mansion. In trailers clips for The Birds, he talks about the relationship between man and bird. The suspense and sheer creepiness of Hitchcock's films were wonderfully demonstrated in just a few short seconds of his previews. "It was always Hitch, and the trailers worked the same way," said his assistant, ...

As much as I need a cup of caffeine right now, I would never, ever, put that thought on a vanity plate. Do you really want to be that person with the bumper sticker that reads, "I HAVEN'T HAD MY COFFEE TODAY... DON'T MAKE ME KILL YOU?" Yeah, I didn't think so. Our first plate is from MooseNuggette, CAFENE (Caffeine). She writes: My drug of choice. Shannon sent in CAFN8ME ( ...

... sanitation, but it's not really any more foreign than the Regency or Victorian period. But set a movie in the Middle Ages, and it becomes a weird mess of anachronism and creepiness, which is honestly what this trailer seems full of. (To be fair, it isn't just Hollywood. A similar thing happens in history and literature classes. Old and Middle English will throw even the sturdiest student. ...

Have you heard of the Lonely Doll books by Dare Wright? Her children's books are super sweet (with a teeny hint of unintentional creepiness). This is Dare Wright. I want her little straw hat. Images from her books. This is a book I found at a used books shoppe and it is now mine. Some of the doll poses in the book are a bit awkward actually. I think it makes the book more special. I love ...

... Because her her ex is an abusive asshole that she has deemed not worthy of living. But its okay. She didn't mean to make anyone uncomfortable, and we all knew what we were getting into before commenting, right? ETA: Yes, she does need some serious, serious help. Thats not for debate. I just think that the creepiness of the post (and her follow up comment) was worth a look. I apologize.

... can't remember all the amazing pieces I read in the Onion this year, but this video stands out to me. Police Still Searching For Missing Productive, Obedient Woman It just felt so disturbingly real and nailed the creepiness of the morning news. Chi-chi-ni! Best Well Made YouTube Sketch of 2009 The Sex Offender Shuffle I just saw this last night, but I'm pretty sure it's the best ...

... John Cusack, who not surprisingly turns out a fantastic performance. He says stuff into his tape recorder about the inherent creepiness of hotel rooms, but 1408 is more about the inherent creepiness of rooms. It's an extension of the whole "what if you're really just a brain in jar, receiving false information?" question, but it's much ...

... himself. Lithgow, this season, has gave a performance as the Trinity Killer that has been a delicately laced mixture of seeming normalness interspersed with moments of profound creepiness. But this episode, the creepiness comes roaring to the forefront when this powder keg of a family dinner bursts into an explosive confrontation that ends with Dexter’s own mask slipping in a big, big way ...
