Tina Fey is a feminist. That much becomes almost immediately evident after picking up Bossypants. As I had always hoped she would be, Fey is all about the sisterhood. Her autobiography tells us never to be tricked into believing women are in competition with each other or to buy into the idea that there’s a ...

Th planet goes rogue in this hilarious glimpse at a Palin Presidency. You know how in the movie 2012, they never really explain why the earth’s crust is suddenly shifting? Well, it’s because Sarah Baccacuda won the election. (Video after jump) It’s true! Just ask the people at SNL, masquerading as the people at the ...
