1. Searches asking whether ER's Rocket Romano is really missing an arm.
Which lead people to this post, and frankly, if you think that Paul McCrane's so committed to his acting method that he'd lose an arm for the part, well, you're probably also willing to believe that Dr. Gallant's going to have a major plotline this year, that Doyle's coming back, and that some day we're going to find out who beat the crap out of Mark Greene in the bathroom -- because frankly, all those things are about as likely as Romano stepping near a helicopter again.
It's called digital effects -- or, alternatively, "wrapping your arm around your stomach and wearing baggy clothing." Or, as Jen put it, "There are people out there who believe he really lost an arm? What kind of douchebags are reading your website?"
Still, y'all are better off than group two:
2. People who are interested in Swan Brooner.
It's not like HBO's documentary "Living Dolls" has aired in months, and yet I swear something like one in every twenty-five visitors to this site are here because they're interested in this poor (then-)seven-year-old girl who was pushed into the beauty pageant scene by her intense, creepy, chain-smoking mom.
If you saw the documentary, you were alternately revolted and fascinated -- it was like Queer Eye meets Mommy Dearest. The best thing we can do for this girl now is leave her alone.
How come no one ever comes here looking for my Benigni/Pinocchio review compilations, the Shaq/Nietzsche tale of the tape or the Michael Jackson v. Mr. Rogers quote quiz?
Just saying. Is all.
