Sadly, there was no show today when it was the one day I got out early from work. Usually I miss the show completely!
I can't believe this kind of news went under the radar for me, but FOT Sloops linked to this story of Zach Braff beating up a child during a prank show.
http://www.starpulse.com/news/index.php/2006/09/14/zach_braff_beat_up_kid_during_punk_d_stu/
I know the kid seemingly ruined your brand new car, but you don't have to pummel the kid. Grab him by the scruff of his shirt and make him take you to his parents, sure, but you don't just hit children just because they are the only things smaller then you.
The creep said:
They edited (the fight) out, because apparently you're not supposed to punch people on 'Punk'd.'
A) I wouldn't call it a fight but more of one-sided child abuse and B) "Apparently" you're not supposed to hit kids ever, you dink.
So I say he goes in the pit, then he can beat up on the child like mentality of Bob Saget. Also, Ashton Kutcher should be dangled above the hate pit for one hour for putting a kid in danger with psycho.
Who would you throw into the pit? Mickey Dolenz is going to resort to cannibalism sooner or later so the pit is going to need to be re-stocked. Nominate and second people here!
-
Can we add the producers of The Drowsy Chaperone for (1) foisting more Saget on unsuspecting tourists and over-50 gay men, and (2) further denigrating my already-suffering chosen art form?

Zachary Braffstead, Esquire, you can punch people on Punk'd. You just can't punch little kids. JESUS.
What a douche.
-
I'm no Braff fan by any means, but at least he owned up to it.
-
You make it seem like it was some kind of cute little innocent kid, he punched some punk who fucked his car up. I'd probably have done the same thing. The people who should be in the hate pit are people who do prank shows and expect celebrities to some how not have a temper.
also, that kid is probably swimming in settlement money right now. I'd say getting beat up by a celebrity is probably the best thing that can happen to you.

I now nominate Colin 2000 to the hate pit!

what!? I nominate you!
seriously though, I don't want to be in the hate pit. so i retract my previous statements. Punching a 12 year old is lame. Zach Braff sucks
-
i nominate the mac "genius"who hung up on me today.
if you're reading this - you really are a brat and you deserve to be publicly hated.
*i withdraw my nomination of all mac geniuses b/c i have just encountered a store with mac angels as employees who were capable of repairing my computer over night and were super courteous and kind and normal and nice and i thank them.
but that other mac store is still & forever on my hate list.
-
I nominate MTV, Punk'd, Ashton Kutcher and the idle rich for the Hate Pit.
-
I nominate the first business establishment to the hate pit: Olive Garden.
Using Tom's description, there's only so much unlimited iceberg lettuce covered in pure vinegar, Wonder Bread breadsticks, and crappy "I-talian" food we can tolerate.
-
I second the Olive Garden due to the sub-mental commercials they air seemingly every 10 minutes.
-
Do you guys want to nominate the mother from the Olive Garden commercial or the whole Olive Garden?
It would be neat if the hate pit was an entire Olive Garden restaurant with a little stage set up in the corner featuring the red hot chili peppers singing "give it away, give it away, give it away, give it away now..." over and over like on a loop while Micky Dolenz, Kevin Smith and the others were hooked up to a clockwork orange type contraption and made to listen to this throughout eternity.
-
i nominate Ditech. stop fucking telling me that "people are smart". there is far too much evidence that this is not true.
-
If people were smart, Ditech would already be out of business. Bunch of creeps who prey on the public's fear of anything more complicated than ordering a numbered value meal at Burger King.
It's a mortgage, people. Your home is on the line, as is your financial well-being. Some things SHOULD take more than 5 minutes, and SHOULD require a modicum of attention and intelligence.
For shame, American Public. Even more for shame, Ditech. (and GMAC who owns them.)

I see it more as a "Superman II" type contraption, but Clockwork Orange works as well.
