Correct me if I'm wrong, but pointing is rude, no? So why is this creepy ass puppet on The Wiggles explicitly instructing our impressionable tykes to point their fingers — up, down, every damn place? (Then there's the question of where this puppet is pointing exactly — down where?) Sesame Street may get a bad rep, but at least Big Bird and the gang aim to teach our kids a little more than how to hold their own at a rave.

It only made sense to me to pit America's least favorite dads against each other in the battle for who's douchier.
On the one hand, there's Jon Gosselin of Jon and Kate Plus Eight fame. This man had no problem parading his children around on reality television when he was still on the payroll, but now that he's getting cut out of the show, he refuses to let his wife continue on without him.

Three years after she escaped from a man who abducted her at age 10 and kept her in a basement for eight and a half years, Natascha Kampusch gave her first interview to British television. She talks about how she's doing; what she thinks about fellow Austrian Elisabeth Fritzl, who'd been held captive by her father and forced to have his children; and if she thinks such stories are particular to Austria.
Kampusch was walking home from school in 1998 when Wolfgang Priklopil abducted her.

I doubt anyone is surprised that a Calvin Klein advertisement is causing controversy for being sexually charged. Despite the company's record, a new ad featuring one woman being "shared" by two men, while another watches, has aroused public outrage again.
Calvin Klein ironically (and predictably) uses a practically naked women to sell clothes and can only be described as pornographic.

In the past "cougar" may have been a demeaning way to describe a single woman preying on younger men, but TV Land's latest reality show, The Cougar, is reclaiming the title for all women who like to date men younger than their children.

Check out these highlights from the season and Sarah Haskins's take on the ridiculousness.

Although everyone's focusing on accusations of infidelity within the Kate and Jon Gosselin household (first Jon was accused of an affair, and now it's Kate's turn), I turn to more pressing questions.
First of all, how would reality television stars who author books and have eight children possibly have time for affairs, and — most importantly — what the hell kind of haircut is Kate sporting? Seriously, it needs a name.
