Looks like we've got a Situation on our Hands

I've been waiting to use that header my whole life.

I think we all knew this was coming—-Jersey Shore's Mike "The Situation" Sorrentino will soon be making an "appearance" in Halifax. A mere $25 will get you into Pacifico's "White Party" on May 6—-and $85 dollars will get you into the "VIP" Capitol Room, where the man himself—-no doubt tanned, buzzed and resplendent—-will be IN. THE. SAME. ROOM with "your own private DJ." Sounds like a sexy situation! (Check out the Ticketpro link here.)

Now, listen—-I watched the shit out of Jersey Shore this past winter. And I loved it. I loved it the same way I love A & W Teen Burgers: Both are quick. Both are tasty. Both are kind of sticky. Both are very satisfying diversions. True, it may leave you feeling dirty and disgusting afterwards, but the feeling passes through your system shortly and ten minutes later, you find yourself thinking "I need another delicious oily burger/episode" and your hands start shaking.

But will I be shelling out $25/$85 to be in the same bar as the man who once mused, "Shave last minute, haircut the day-of, maybe some tanning and the gym. These are rules to live by"? No. And it's not because I think it's stupid or a rip-off (although it is important to note that for $25, I could purchase approximately fifteen Teen Burgers.)

No. The reason is very simple. No Snooki, no dice.

Evidence in video form below:

Survey Asks

Do you agree with Halifax's school board cutting 152 teachers?

  • Yes, the board needs to meet its shrinking budget.
  • Only if managers and bureaucracy get a similar cut.
  • I don't care, I support the private education system.
  • No, giving young citizens the best education is too important to cut.

LOL @ Snooki. She makes the Dome look like Buckingham Palace.

I think there should be a Canadian version of this shit show... Instead of greasy Italian stereotypes, think angry Russian stereotypes. In Winnipeg. We can call it Portage & Main Shore.
