"Puma" actually means something different, but I'm so stoned on cold meds I can't remember what it is. I think it's a younger-generational maneater, which we would normally just call, you know, a hipster. #russellbrand
@raincoaster: You are right. A Puma is someone in their 20's - 30's who likes to date younger men. Sorry Demi - you are not in your 30's! #russellbrand
@raincoaster: My most recent memory of what a "puma" is comes from the past presidential election. "Pumas" were women voters who (for the most part) jumped ship from the Democratic Party when Hilary didn't get the nomination or the VP spot. "Party Unity, My Ass" equals "puma." At least initially, the pumas all ran toward Caribou Barbie on the GOP ticket as if she were some sort of snowbilly savior. Which makes it all the more weird that Demi actually wants to be called a puma. #russellbrand
"Thou shalt not fornicate." Prejean is safe as the TMZ article truly clarifies that the home-made porn is a solo act. Who knew she had such talent? #rihanna
The only thing worse than this is if Kate Gosselin becomes a Jew. That haircut alone must be violating some or the other halakhic law, no? #jongosselin
Gawker is on the wrong side of this Gosselin story.
Jon wanted those kids off that reality show well-before the show ended, and he made that clear during actual episodes of the show from the second or third season.
Does he suck at PR? Yes. Did he go a little crazy with the ladies? Maybe. But he also finally got the guts together to stop prostituting out his kids.
He is a not so bright dude who is now trying to keep his kids off TV.
He has TLC and Kate trying to continue the exploitation of the kids, and meanwhile, the mainstream and gossip-media are dumping shit on him. If he does kill himself, the kids will basically be nothing but little money-makers born and raised in captivity as part of a plan by Kate Gosselin who was obsessed as a teen with the fame that "multiples" can bring. Pretty fucking sick.
How about at LEAST doing a little research before heaping on more hate to someone who is essentially completely alone in the world at the moment? This is *not* your typical celebrity is an ass situation.
Somewhere exist mirror links to the original posts written by the kids' aunt Jodi for the above blog. They discussed how horribly the kids were being treated and how Jon wanted to stop the show. They are from a few YEARS AGO. Sorry but although I follow this story I don't follow it closely enough to have saved those links.
In any case, if the media (even gossip sites) keeps sourcing only *itself* over and over on this story, it's going to continue to miss the REAL scoop here.
@themediatrix: + @all: Kindly please STOP commenting on this thread. If you keep it up, it's gonna make my Yiddish jokes down-thread vanish into a black hole of oblivion and I shall have labored in vain. Also, who cares? It's Saturday, it's Halloween, we just want entertainment, Foster delivered. Screw quote journalisistic objectivity unquote. #jongosselin
@saralapua: If anyone should do a little research, it's you darlin'. D'ya think jongosselin is a san francisco-based tech-dabbling public radio journalist with feminist sensibilities who's been posting on gawker for a couple of years?
@themediatrix: Right back atcha. Chill out. It's gawker and you're apparently wound up tighter than a drum. Wow, talk about channeling anxiety into weird forums. #jongosselin
Rabbi Smiley Botox is the same guy who was peddling his "lost Michael Jackson tapes" book earlier this month. I always thought one had to be involved in a sexual act for money, to be a whore, but I am learning how wrong I was...
Quite possibly your greated gossip roundup ever. Speaking on behalf of all Christians, though, we never wanted him in the first place. If we have to play this "toss the steaming bag of poop" around for more than a month, I will be very disappointed. And smelly. #jongosselin
@Conchie Birdie: Here is a little wisdom from my bubie that works for Tsar's and Jon Gosselins alike: "May the tsar be happy and healthy, may he have many, many children, and may they have many, many children... Far away from me." #jongosselin
@kappakappaspankme: Shit, are you me??!! But I am an Honorary Jew and very married. Perchance, you are my doppelganger from an alternate timeline and our parallel universes just intersected. #jongosselin
Full disclosure - I'm very married too, but I suffer from no delusions of grandeur. My husband would trade me in a nanosecond for a vintage Jazzmaster. #jongosselin
@kappakappaspankme: Jesus! Okay we have to form a crime-fighting team stat. One more nice Jewish girl from the South and Foster will be giving us instructions from a speaker phone thingy. First case: what is hiding in Kate Gosselin's hair? #jongosselin
@Pope John Peeps II: "via an august news organization, the designator of which is known for his breakthrough research in the field of Lady Gaga's penis." That would be this site, and that would be me. The designation is not official, and the theoretical quotes are not real. Yet. And yes. This is that exact same rabbi, who is also, apparently, "America's Rabbi."
@Pope John Peeps II: I was wondering if it was the same rabbi that broadcast that Elaine was "jealous of her friend George -- a loser" getting married on Seinfeld back in the day. #jongosselin

(Sorry; don't mean to be mean. They don't celebrate Halloween in Berlin & it's way late & I'm a little bored & looking for trouble.) #jongosselin

I just don't have a sense of humor about the fact that eight kids are working (six from birth) to support their mom's fantasy of being a celebrity.
(Hope you find trouble and some fun this evening.) #jongosselin

PS. Is Rabbi Smuley the "rabbi shmuley" that Tracy Jordan needed to talk to on 30 rock when he "lost touch with his roots"?
