Going Back to Your High School Reunion as a Famous Actor Has to Be the Best Feeling Ever

“Lots of people dread going to their 20-year high school reunion. But not Bradley Cooper!

The Hangover star returned to his alma mater, Germantown Academy in Fort Washington, Pa., on Nov. 8 to catch up with friends from the class of 1993 and visit his favorite teachers.

“He has come back to GA a couple of times to talk to students,” a school official tells PEOPLE. “He loves seeing his old teachers and enjoys reminiscing with them. When he says he’s going to do something for the school, he does it. He’s a big supporter and proud to be a part of this school. So it was no surprise that he came to the reunion.”

While his girlfriend, British model Suki Waterhouse was in L.A., Cooper, 38, had a blast reliving the past with his best pal and fellow ’93 classmate Brian Klugman, who stars on the FOX series Bones.”

I can’t imagine a better feeling than this. Even if you were the man in high school, going back to your 20 year reunion as a world famous actor with your model girlfriend is an all time trump card. At most reunions you’re impressed by classmates who became doctors or lawyers. Not at BCoops. “Oh your a doctor now? That’s cool, I might have to dip out early though, gotta catch a plane to Hawaii to film a movie with Jennifer Lawrence.” If I were him I’d go to every high school reunion I could get my hands on. Even if he didn’t go to that high school. Just show up with Suki and shoot the shit with all the normies of the world. I for one would be ecstatic to hang out with Bradley Cooper at my high school reunion. Naturally we’d become best friends and I’d star in his new movie about two best friends who meet at a high school reunion. During the premiere he introduces me to Jennifer Lawrence and we embark on a lifelong romance. Now I can’t wait for my reunion.

It’s Mind Blowing How Many People Use the Word Angle When They Meant to Use Angel

An angel and an angle, as most people know, are two very different things. Twitter refuses to acknowledge this scientific fact.

It’s nice to know that we have so many angles looking out for us. Obtuse. Right. 90 degrees. Every single one is watching from above.

A Nation Weeps: Batman bin Suparman is in Jail

(Source) “Three years ago, Singapore man Batman bin Suparman — whose name translates to “Batman son of Suoperman” — became an Internet celebrity after a picture of his ID card surfaced.

Now 23, Batman is back in the news after getting sentenced on Monday to three years in jail on a variety of charges. Batman was arrested in August, after surveillance video showed him stealing the equivalent of $400 from a store, according to court documents obtained by the AFP.

In addition, Batman stole the ATM card of his brother, Nurazman Suparman, and fraudulently used it to make purchases totally about $680, according to Channel News Asia. He also pleaded guilty to unrelated counts of theft and heroin consumption.

Some fans of Batman have expressed their dismay on the “Batman Bin Suparman Fan Club” Facebook page, lamenting that their hero “has fallen to the Dark Side.” Others have called for someone to break him out of jail.”

If I’m a police officer in Singapore there is no way in hell I’m arresting Batman. Couldn’t bring myself to do it. Unless this guy is going on a murder spree I’m letting him go. We rarely come across greatness in the flesh, and if “Batman son of Suoperman” isn’t a sign of greatness then quite frankly I don’t know what is. So he stole $400 worth of stuff and fraudulently used his brother’s ATM card. There is always a price you pay for greatness. In Batman’s case it was $1,080. Small price to pay to be graced with the presence of not one, but two famous superheroes. Let’s hope the Singapore police understand the err of their ways and release Batman before he inevitably breaks out and launches a superhero campaign on the entire country.

Beer Drinkers Guide to Beerfest

Beerfest came to our backyard of Providence, Rhode Island this weekend, and as an avid beer drinker, I was not going to pass up this opportunity. Here’s a guide (to the best of my recollection) to doing beerfest the right way.

image

Although beerfest was nothing like the movie, it’s still a great time. It costs $44 at the door, which is basically stealing, because I felt like I drank $1,000 worth of beer. I’ve heard from a few people that they have a process when it comes to sampling beers, but my advice is to go to the tables with the shortest lines and try not to make a fool of yourself. Also, if Curious Traveler offers you a fake mustache, take it.

If a company is smart enough to build taps into the side of a van, drink their beer.

Never miss an opportunity to get a picture of a world class ponytail.

Or a man wearing a wolf costume on the bus.

The lesson of beerfest is that there are no winners or losers, just those brave men and women who throw their inhibitions to the wind and drink as much beer as they can in a three and a half hour time period.

And although a few wary travelers passed out along the way..

Craig Cobb Did Not Have the Best Veterans Day

“A self-proclaimed white supremacist underwent a DNA test to ‘prove’ his genetic heritage, only to be told on live television he was 86 per cent European – and 14 per cent of Sub-Saharan African heritage.

Sixty-two-year-old Craig Cobb claims he follows the ‘Creator’ which “favours racial awareness” and has been attempting to create a “white enclave” in North Dakota by quietly buying up land in the small town of Leith, despite anti-racism rallies and town meetings against his plans.

He submitted his DNA as part of host Trisha Goddard’s Race in America series, who gave him the results to a delighted audience, telling Cobb: “You have a little Black in you”. However, Cobb can be heard dismissing the results as “statistical noise” and refused to fist bump with the host.

Cobb, who lived in the town for a year before residents became aware of his agenda, has allegedly harassed the only bi-racial couple in the small community, leaving notes pinned to their door asking Sherrill Harper, who is married to African-American Bobby Harper: “What are you doing married to a negro?”, reported the Mail Online.

Cobb has also placed a sign reading “Village of the Damned” on one of his plots of land, accompanied by a red swastika.”

Craig Cobb must feel pretty stupid. Rule number one of being a White supremacist has to be to make sure you’re not black. I feel like that defeats the whole point. Who’s going to listen to a white supremacist that is 14% black? At that point you’re just being ignorant. Harassing bi racial couples and placing swastikas on your land probably seems like a bad idea right about now. My question is where does Craig Cobb go from here? The black population hates you because you’re an ignorant piece of shit. You’re white supremacist buddies can’t be seen joshing around with a black guy. The only move is to fade into bolivian and hope the world forgets you. We all thought Dave Chappelle was crazy for suggesting such a crazy idea. Looks like he was ahead of the curve.

The Miami Dolphins Might Have Had the Worst Week in NFL History

Not the ideal week for the dolphins. Their locker room is in shambles. One of their offensive lineman checked into a mental hospital and another one is apparently a terrible racist who was suspended by his own team. Their fans think Richie Incognito is in jail for some reason, and to cap off the week from hell, they lost to the winless Buccaneers on Monday Night Football. If this isn’t Bob Kraft witchcraft then I don’t know what is. Looks like the Patriot’s are no longer content with winning the division every year. They want to physically and emotionally decimate the competition along the way.

4 Reasons Why Ron Swanson is the Best Mentor We’ve Ever Had

1. The Ron Swanson Pyramid of Greatness

– Every great man needs a pyramid of greatness. Unwritten rule of life. This is how boys become men, and men become heroes. Ever heard of a hero drinking skim milk? Neither have I.

2. Eat Like a Champion, Live Like a Champion

– Steaks, eggs, bacon. If you can’t succeed on that diet, maybe you’re not cut out for life in the fast lane. I know for a fact that if I only ate steak, bacon and eggs during my childhood I’d be a professional athlete. Or dead. Either way, Ron Swanson is right.

3. The Power of the Mustache

– Behind every mediocre man, you’ll find a great man with a mustache. Teddy Roosevelt, Martin Luther King, Jr, Tom Selleck, Freddie Mercury, Ron Swanson. All American heroes. All hall of fame mustaches.

4. The Best Government is No Government At All

– I’m not saying the government shutdown wouldn’t have happened if Ron Swanson was in charge, but there’s a good chance it wouldn’t have happened. That’s the beauty of the pyramid of greatness: it’s useful in ever facet of life, including the government. Combine that with his eating habits and panty dropping mustache, and you have the greatest mentor in the history of the world.
