Both have cropped black hair and wear thrift store glasses. So there is that. I wonder if they both like bitter melons.

OT: Apparently, FOX News doesn't have enough crazy. On Monday, John Gibson invited Kenneth Eng to his show to explain why he hates black people.

Some days I weep for my species.

Wow, that interview is something else.

"Well no, and personally if I'm racist then so is Sofia Coppola. And more importantly I'd like to talk about the philosophy of "Dragons: Lexicon Triumvirate," which tells a story about cyborg dragons fighting in the Middle Ages. And in this realm, evolution has worked in a more logical way, even though it's in a fantasy setting which makes it logical that dragons are more superior than humans, in that they have intelligence and are larger and they can..."

"First of all, I would just like to say that solipsism proves that my philosophy is that since I am the only consciousness I'm aware of, any solipsism must be real. Therefore, since perception creates reality, in both the quantum and relativistic realms, I must be god. So the only reason why -- so if there is such a thing as god, then he's me. Either worship me or, you know, forsake religion."

The guy who plays Sylar on Heroes really looks a lot like Matt Haughey.

I am going to make use of my top-secret contacts to see if I can get Ben a photo of Haughy posing with either Nine Black Poppies or Jayma Mays's disassembled skull.

I saw Darnielle at my downtown art cinema a while back (he recently moved to my "city"). Catching Jonestown a couple days before Valentine's--seems like a pretty odd date movie, but he and his female companion seemed truly happy in a relaxed, affectionate sort of way. Also he sought me out (since I was house manager on duty) to say how much he appreciated our theatre booking Jonestown in the first place. I didn't bother playing fanboy, though, because I'm always sure I'll just say something dopey.

2: Anthropomorphic Shark Man and Faux News are made for each other. I hope they make him a regular.

8: If they would permanently split the screen, half Eng and half whatever else they were doing, or just give him a little inset onscreen at all times, and he could just free-associate on whatever was being said, that would be so awesome. I might get a tv.

Or they could just give him his own show. They could call it "Ding-dong! It's Crazy Time!!!1! With Eng!!"

Eng-captioned for the sanity-impaired. YES.

Can we make it an Unfogged project to get him his own cable access show, or at least post PamelaShrugs-style YouTube episodes?

That solipsism paragraph is fucking classic.

I want to see BloggingHeads.tv, Kenneth Eng debating... what's her name, that lady from the right-wing news site that The Poor Man used to have a crush on, with the funny red hair...
