Who's the Most Famous Natural Redhead Woman in Hollywood?

I thought this was an easy question and assumed it would be Emma Stone or Christina Hendricks aka Joan from "Mad Men."

Then I found out that surprisingly they're both not natural redheads. Apparently Stone is a blonde which just seems weird since she's so synonymous with having red hair.

This is like finding out Don Draper lost his mojo all over again.

What's next?  An HBO show not randomly featuring nudity just because it can.

Naturally red headed women must feel like the Na'vi because some outsiders just adapted their look and seemingly became the best representation of it.

But seriously, I don't know the answer to this question.  Lindsay Lohan doesn't really count because she's just famous for failing at life.

Does anybody know the answer?

Who Eats Mamba Candy?

I haven't had Mamba candy since the mid 90s.  In fact I'm not even sure if it still exists because I haven't seen it at a store in years.  Although the internet seems to suggest that Mambas still do.

Mambas are kind of like fancy Starbursts that come in a pack of 20 featuring four flavors: strawberry, raspberry, lemon and orange.  

Much like Rolos, I find it hard to believe that many people eat Mambas or consider it their favorite candy.

Although, eating Mambas really does say something about a person.  There are certain types of people who eat them : 

1. Snobby / pretentious people who think they're too good for Starbursts.  Nobody's above Starbursts. Plus Mambas don't have commercials like this.
2. People who like to make it rain with their money.  Oh look at you, you can afford to pay over dollar for your fancy candy.
3. Hipsters.  Starbursts are so played out, that's why I eat Mambas.
4. People who don't want their candy to fit in their pocket. Package is too big to fit normally and always awkwardly sticks out.

Also, I feel like Mambas have been lying to us for years.  With a name like Mambas one would assume they're like the Latin America equivalent of Starbursts, but surprisingly the candy comes from Germany.  

Those sneaky Germans.  This isn't France; you just can't invade people's mouths when you want.

Apparently Mamba refers to the deadly Mamba snake.  But what the hell does that have to do with candy? I'll chalk it up to just another weird German thing.  

Inception Trailer Acapella

Okay, nobody really wants to hear about "Inception" anymore because it always turns into the same 15 minute philosophical conversation.

 Don't worry, this is just mindless fun with the trailer.   Replacing the music in the trailer with acapella shouldn't be this amusing but it is.

Gets me every time with the BBROOOOOOAAAAAR sound.  The Ellen Page voice is pretty great as well. 

Ten Most Unanswerable Questions in the World

According to a study done by the website Ask Jeeves, they have determined the 10 most unanswerable questions in the world for last decade.  Here's the full list.

Some of these questions are deep existential questions dealing with things such as the meaning of life or if there's a god, but others are just plain stupid.

Do you really need to know if blondes do have more fun or who is the most famous person in the world?

I think I could easily answer the 7th question which is: What is love?  It was already answered in 1993 by this guy:



Ask Jeeves failed to recognize the most unanswerable question in the world on this list though.  It's not 1999, so why is anybody still using the Ask Jeeves.

Jesse Heiman: The Background Nerd

You may not know the name Jesse Heiman but you've probably seen him before.

I don't know why, but this guy seems to pop up in the background of numerous TV shows and movies as an extra that's the token nerd/geek in the background.

Within the last week, I've seen him three different times while watching TV.  He was in the background of "Chuck," "Glee," and "Old School" playing the same part as nerdy guy.

Look at his IMDB page,  almost every single role is listed as geek or nerd.  Heiman has made a career out of being the go to background nerd and he's everywhere.



Yet I've never even seen him have a speaking role.  I guess that makes him similar to a porn actor except Heiman would probably be credited as "nerd that watches sex from corner" if he was in a porn.

I wonder how he became Hollywood's background nerd.  Did he purposely set out to do this because it was his niche or did someone choose him?

Is he really a nerd in real life or does he just play one?  Does he find it demeaning?

He's like the poor man's Jonah Hill.  In fact, Heiman might be pissed that Hill beat him to the punch as comedic, kind of heavy nerd guy.

There can only be one Jonah Hill. I'm like the Highlander.

Although he could pull a Jesse Eisenberg who became a poor man's Michael Cera by taking roles Cera obviously turned down until some people actually started to like him better than Cera.

Hey, both their names are Jesse so that's already a start.

The Japanese Rocketeer Fails

Silly Japanese, don't they know there can only be one Rocketeer and he's American.

This video further proves that all Japanese technology isn't perfect and they should just stick to building disturbing humanoid robots that will eventually over throw us.

The only person who could sympathize with a Rocketeer inspired fail like this would be one of my friends in his younger days.

He was told by his father that he could get any video game he wanted and unfortunately chose "The Rocketeer" video game.  Here's a taste of the awfulness he got.

Don Draper's Off His Game

The 4th season of "Mad Men" has been great as usual but there's something that's really troubling me: Don Draper.  For the first time ever, Draper's off his game with the ladies.

This can't be happening.  The sun is yellow, the sky is blue, and Don Draper never gets denied by women. Those are all facts.

The foundation of my world is starting to crumble.  If this was "Inception," my totem would be Draper always beds the woman, and now I'm seriously questioning reality since he isn't.

I don't know if I can really live in a world where Don Draper gets rejected by women.

This is the same guy who pulled off the Spanish Stare in a restaurant during the 60s.  I don't think anybody had even coined the term for it yet.

If I was real, there's a good chance
 I could have been your father 

Why am I getting so concerned about a fiction character?  Because Don Draper is more than a character, he's an icon.  The ultimate man's man.

It's painful to watch him get turned down by women he would've easily bedded before.  Like seeing a Hall of Fame athlete get shown up by average players because of diminishing skills.

Instead of the typical smooth Draper moves, he's reduced to being that creepy drunk guy that's like "come on, come on" until the woman reluctantly agrees to go with him for some reason.

He's struggled to get women like (spoiler alert if you're behind in season four) his secretary and a waitress.  Old Draper wouldn't even resort to this and if he did, he'd seduce them in his sleep.

Even worse, he's resorted to paying for sex.  I thought that was as likely as Draper paying for the air he breathes.

Obviously the whole divorce thing has thrown him off his game.  Before he had the comfort of knowing he was going home to his wife Betty who was always more attractive then the woman he was cheating with.

Now Draper lacks that confidence and the allure of being a married man.

All his mistresses secretly liked that Draper was cheating on his wife with them because it bothered them for like a minute before they moved on.

But Don Draper can turn this around, he has to.  He's just in a little slump.  All he has to do is look in the mirror and remember he's Don f'n Draper or just listen to this song.
