Bret Michaels- liar, douchebag

Anyone who reads this site is not surprised.

I said this from day one: I went into this to have fun and maybe find someone to like. True love is not going to be found instantly on a TV show. That is only for scripted shows. Scripted reality, they give someone a show. It is the reason “Rock of Love” has been the No. 1 show. It has been kept as real as possible. Anyone thinking they are going into a TV show finding love, they might find someone that they like and eventually learn to like them more. I think finding true love, I never went in with that intent.

LIAR.  The line he used, over and over, was that he was looking for love, that this wasn’t rock of like or rock of lust, it was rock of love.  Those words were said repeaedly by Michaels on the show.  Either he’s lying now or the show was a lie.  Or both.

AP: Did you find true love this time?

Michaels: I found someone who is really nice and cool and gets rock ‘n’ roll. We can see when it goes from here.

Fucking nowhere fast, that’s where it goes.

AP: What are you hiding under that bandanna?

Michaels: My hair is combined of my hair and the finest extensions Europe has to offer. I do the show without it on all the time and they wont film me. They are like, “Put your bandanna back on. It is your image.” It is my signature thing.

At least he’s telling the partial truth here.  “Extensions” is closer to reality than saying it’s his hair.  Of course telling us it’s a wig and showing us his bald spot would be actual reality, but I suppose I ask too much.

Rock Of Love 2 Finale - Bret’s Rock of Love or “AMBRE AMBRE AMBRE”

This is it.  The big moment we’ve all been waiting for, when we find out that the script has always called Ambre to win as the “Comeback Kid” Ambre wins after OH MY GOD DID YOU KNOW SHE WAS ALMOST ELIMINATED WAY BACK AT THE BEGINNING AND NOW SHE WON IT ISN’T THAT FUNNY HOLY COW JUST GOES TO SHOW YOU!

*barf*

Let’s whore it up.

Rock Of Love 2 Finale will be late

VH1 you bastards!  I’ve started depending in those early airings of the show in order to get it all done for Monday morning.  Well, not only is tonight’s finale an extra half-hour long, which adds 90 minutes to the writeup time, but they didn’t air it early.  I don’t get it, much less get to capture the episode and get screenshots, etc. until it airs live at 9PM.  I don’t see how I’ll get it done tonight.  Gimme an extra day.

Damn you VH1!

Things I meant to post over the last week

1. The Swayze is responding well to treatment.  Go Swayze.  It’s time to not be nice to that cancer.

2. Bret and the girls wrecked the house they were staying in, and VH1 didn’t bother to buy the promised insurance.  Gee, what a surprise.  VH1 is an irresponsible organization and those whores have about as much respect for property as they do for themselves.  Oh and Bret Michaels is a douchebag.

3. Is PC gaming dead?  Hell yes it is.  I’ve said this before, but it bears repeating: PC gaming is a never-ending cycle of upgrades and driver problems.  Every two or three years, the latest and greatest game will require a new graphics card.  The high end is always brutal, cost-wise.  $500 bucks.  A really good latest-gen upper midrange card goes about $200-$250.  Budget cards worth buying are $175.

On the off years when you aren’t upgrading video cards, you need to upgrade your CPU to keep up with the video card you plan to get next year.  And every so often you’ll need a new motherboard.  And fans will burn out.  Power supplies go bad.  Your entire PC will be replaced a part at a time over a three-to-five year lifespan, and while you can build a rig for a grand, if you want a good rig you’ll be spending about two grand.  Or just buy a whole new rig every three years.  For $2000.

OR...you could buy an Xbox 360 for $250-$400 (depending on the model) and be done with it.  Add in a second controller and a year of Xbox Live and you still can’t break $700.  Done and dusted.  The games rock.  If online is your thing there is no better matchmaking right now than Live.  It’s simple, easy, and like they always say about Macs, it just works.  Except for the red rings of death.  But they’re doing what they can to make good on those problems.

Maybe the PS3 is more your speed.  Do it.  It’s the best Blu-Ray player around right now, and you get to play MGS and SOCOM.  I’m not dying for a PS3, but when we get an HD TV, I may look at it just for the movie capability.  And SOCOM.  :)

4. Brokeback Mountain is a shit film, regardless of its alleged social import.  Rann nails the very exact thing that I complained about when I first saw it: These are two lying pieces of shit who destroyed their families because they were too cowardly to be who they were.  The fact that they are gay is not a reason to justify that they are lying cheaters.  They are not heroes, and the movie did nothing to frame gay people as normal in the minds of AJMG (Average Joe Movie Goer).  Plus it was plodding, boring, an hour too long and slower than dial-up internet access. It was poorly directed and poorly edited.  Fuck Brokeback Mountain.

Rock Of Love 2 wk. 11 - Rockin’ the Rents or “How many people can I impress with my wig?”

We’re getting down to the wire here.  Three “ladies” left, one pass to Douchebag Michaels’ heart.  Will it be the collagen-enhanced dead worms on Destiney’s face that he kisses each night?  Or would he rather snuggle up next to a middle-aged actress and go with Ambre?  Perhaps he would rather fuck a muppet and pick Daisy?  Only one way to find out...time for Rock of Love again.*

*Sorry it’s a day late.  Needed time to do all the screencaps and whatnot

Rikki Rockett: rapist?

I read about this the other day and I’ve been putting off posting only because I knew it was going to be a long-ish post to write.  Actually Donna’s mom called us to tell us she had heard about it, and that raised a whole other story, which is the reason this post will be long.  Anyway, the newsy bit first:

Poison drummer Rikki Rockett was arrested on a rape warrant and his case was turned over to the district attorney’s office for possible grand jury consideration, officials said Friday.

Rockett, 46, was arrested Monday at or near Los Angeles International Airport, Los Angeles police said. He was booked and released, and was awaiting an extradition decision by Mississippi prosecutors.

A woman in Mississippi filed a complaint that she was raped on Sept. 23, 2007, at the Silver Star Casino, Neshoba County sheriff’s investigator Ralph Sciple said.

“The subject, Rikki Rockett, forcibly had sex with an adult in one of the hotel rooms,” according to a complaint.

...

Rockett, whose real name is Richard Ream…

First of all his parents - named Ream - named their kid “Richard.” Dick Ream.  They must have hated the idea of having him.  Secondly, I totally and completely believe this is possible, and here comes the long story bit after the jump.

Rock Of Love 2 week 10 - Bitter Suite, or “What happens in Vegas gets broadcast on national TV”

What’s the time?  It’s time to get ill.  Not in the Beastie Boys sense of the phrase.  That would be awesome.  No, this is more like a literal illness, both demonstrated by the ladies after a trips to Vegas with Heather and felt by you when you think of all the things with multiple legs that must be crawling through the bed Bret will share with at least three of these skeezers.

Let’s whore it up.

Rock Of Love 2 wk 9 - Going to Ex-tremes, or “Who likes dbags like me?  Cuz that’s who’s gonna win.”

Another week, another episode of douchebag behavior, mango body spray and Vagisil by the crate.  It’s time for Rock of Love again.

Apologies for the lateness, but you can blame Dell for purchasing cheap Malaysian RAM in 2005.  The source of all the computer troubles this past weekend was bad RAM.  Bad memory makes everything all screwed up.  It makes the computer say and do stupid things.  It was quite the allegory for this show, actually.

Time to watch some whores, people.  Buckle up.

Rock of Love delay

No chance of getting to it tonight.  Donna’s laptop has had a catastrophic - and quite frankly long-delayed-yet-expected - Windows borking.  First some errors, then some auto-dll-replacing then registry failures and now a colossal goat-fuck of epic Microsoft-like proportions.  I will be a wee bit busy smashing it with the steel toe of my Timberlands wiping it completely and starting anew.

Odds are that RoL will be put off until Wednesday due to time stuff.  Sorry!

Rock Of Love 2 wk 8 - Video Vixens, or “How can I further exploit Daisy and Megan’s fine ass(ets)?”

OK, before we get started...yes, this is Daisy’s MySpace, and yes she’s Oscar De La Hoya’s niece.  Her MySpace is - like every other semi-pro whore on there - full of pix.

Next, here’s Bret’s official YouTube channel for the BMB.  OhMiGawdItMakesMeWannaDie.  Thanks to mgnmfrc1 for the link.

Last thing before we whore it up.  I just wanted to address the comment from maltamight in the last Rock Of Love recap post.

This show isn’t real. it’s a complete setup. Bret Michael’s lives about 3 streets over from me in a suburb of Phoenix Arizona. He is happily married and does the show purely for the money.

Now, I don’t doubt for a New York minute that this is a possibility.  I’m quite sure that at the very best, Bret does the show for money and doesn’t give a flying toss about any one of these women.  I am also convinced that he’s banging most if not all of them simultaneously.

Here’s what I know to be true; Right before the start of the first season’s tapings, Bret had a baby girl, named Jorja Bleu, with his long-time girlfriend, Kristi Lynn Gibson (who is also the mother of his other daughter, Raine Elizabeth).  The rumor was life was good for them and they were considering marriage.  Another rumor floated that they were in fact married and were hiding it.  Not a whit of confirmation to that part of it.  All we know for sure is that he was dating her for a long time, things were good and they just had a baby.  Then Rock Of Love was announced, and those of us who know people who know people were like “WTF?” It came out of the blue, and there was a lot of talk that either the relationship imploded (as it often has, he started dating her before he was dating Pam Anderson back in the day) or that they were still together and the show was just for the cash.

They did, or maybe still do, live in Scottsdale, AZ.  Apparently somewhere near or maybe *in* the DC Ranch community.

So, is he still married/living with Kristy Gibson?  I don’t know.  Probably.  I mean, she’s “the one.” He’ll never be free of her, she’s been the muse for countless songs, she was in his absolutely horrible movie “A Letter From Death Row,” she’s been on a BMB album cover...and of course she’s the freaking mother of his children.

I will say this: I believe it.  Or rather, I wouldn’t put it past him at all.  One way or the other, broken up with Kristy Lynn or not, this show is a total put on, and Bret Michaels is a douche bag.  Bearing that in mind, let’s go down the rabbit hole anyway and pretend these are real people.  Time for whores!
