The absurdist and hyperbolic response to the Wuhan Kung Flu CoronaVirus is a flamboyant display of post apocalyptic Communist cosplay at best, and a dangerous sociopolitical totalitarian exercise at worst.

The Deleterious Dilemma of Shane Gillis
On September 12, 2019 it was announced that Pennsylvania native Shane Gillis would be joining the 45th season of NBC's Saturday Night Live. The long-running sketch comedy series has seen far better days and is teetering around an all-time-low in ratings and popularity.

Maybe our relationship with video games isn’t so simple
Every time a seemingly random act of violence occurs, our brains rely on social and cultural clues to bring some sense of reason to what is potentially unreasonable. Our brains, however, have another natural response to contradicting stimuli or irrational behavior; and that's called "cognitive dissonance." Cognitive dissonance occurs when one is aware that something… Continue reading Maybe our relationship with video games isn’t so simple
The Media is still defending AOC’s ’12 Years’ Blunder
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=r_ovC0N3qfE Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez claimed that the world is going to end in 12 years; or, at very least, we will be unable to combat the effects of "man-made" climate change in 12 years and our civilization will be doomed... The media continues to defend her on this, but it's not quite pseudo-science...it's just another… Continue reading The Media is still defending AOC’s ’12 Years’ Blunder

Sailor Twift InstaZine: Tha Spooktacular Issue (Oct. 2018)
As we get closer and closer to the fictional narrative of The Purge, people are angry, violence manifests out of anger and politicians stoke the flames of chaos by encouraging the political Left to engage in acts of physical and mental aggression on their opponents.

A totally biased review of Taylor Swift’s ‘reputation’
On November 10, Taylor Swift had the physical release for her 6th studio album, "reputation." I remember the day for two reasons; one because I rushed out to buy the album (twice) in order to move up in the priority list for Reputation Tour tickets on Ticketmaster...and two, because it was released on the 10-year anniversary of the… Continue reading A totally biased review of Taylor Swift’s ‘reputation’
Cyber Monday Deals on Kathy Griffin’s Career

It was way back during the… Continue reading Cyber Monday Deals on Kathy Griffin’s Career
Is Harvey Weinstein the Iceberg…or Just the Tip?
In the past week, we've seen a very carefully orchestrated and targeted media campaign to officially sink the often-accused and decades-long-known serial Hollywood Creep, Harvey Weinstein. There isn't much to explain that articles from The New Yorker, New York Times, etc haven't already covered; but these allegations of sexually inappropriate behavior (to say the least) have been… Continue reading Is Harvey Weinstein the Iceberg…or Just the Tip?

When the Frog Went to War
Last night, Americans were unnerved by the breaking news that Trump had ordered an artillery strike on the Syrian Air Force base from which planes carrying "Chemical Weapons" had supposedly launched an attack on the rebel-controlled town of Khan Sheikhoun. As I argued in a previous article, this "Chemical Attack" likely never occurred at all. But,… Continue reading When the Frog Went to War
I’d Like to Buy the World a Pepsi
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dA5Yq1DLSmQ In the latest example of "dipshit social justice grandstanding" the bewildered and misguided Left have managed to get Pepsi (the sugar-water you get when the restaurant doesn't have Coke-brand sugar-water) to pull their latest long-form advertisement from the Interwebz. The ad, to anyone with a fucking brain in their skull, mimics the sentiment of the classic-but-cringe 1971 Coca… Continue reading I’d Like to Buy the World a Pepsi

Yuri Bezmenov and the Forgotten 1984
It was in February of 1970, a presumably cold and grey day in the former Soviet Union, that Yuri disguised himself as a cartoon hippie, complete with fake beard and shaggy hair, and joined a pro-commie tour group that allowed him to flee his homeland to Athens, Greece.

What Does Watching ‘Black Mirror’ Say About You?
Black Mirror was a show I started watching at the behest of a lady whose opinion I can't help but trust. I'd never really heard anything about the show other than that it was "like The Twilight Zone for a new generation"...which, as a massive fan of The Twilight Zone, I have to tell you it's not. It's… Continue reading What Does Watching ‘Black Mirror’ Say About You?
Star Wars Goes Rogue
When Disney ripped the Star Wars universe from the cold dead hands of George Lucas, many were afraid of the franchise's future. Those people were wrong. There are plenty of times Disney has made epic and costly mistakes, but they typically come in the form of a John Carter or Lone Ranger. Typically, Disney's misfires are attempts at future… Continue reading Star Wars Goes Rogue
Who’s Ready for Another Wolverine?
How many Wolverine stand-alone movies have there been? Dear god, this will only be three? It feels like so many more. Probably because Hugh Jackman has been the focal point of so many X-Men films by now that his character become pretty much synonymous with the franchise. So what are they going to do when he's gone? There's… Continue reading Who’s Ready for Another Wolverine?
Dear Amazon, Please Keep Every New Show
The Tick has been one of my favorite comic book characters of all time.

The Magic, Mayhem and Mystery of Wizard World Comic Con, Philly
Upon arrival on Thursday, I was impressed with the preparation, expectations and overall scope of the event.

SuperDPS 2012 Grammy Predictions (and Results)
As I try to do for every major awards show, letting a few slip through my fingers, I thought I'd make my educated guesses at who might come out with some big wins.

Occupy Philadelphia Pushes Forward: Day 2
It's the second day of what's being called "Occupy Philly," a 99-percenter movement spawned from the spirit of "Occupy Wall Street."

Proud of Fox Philadelphia (for the moment)
from HotDamnItsKari. Fox 29 in Philly made all the celebrity junk news and comedy shows this week when anchorman Mike Jerrick ridiculed the Kardashian sisters on Good Day Philadelphia.

Another Awful Ke$ha Clone (of the moment)
from ImAFreeBtch. This is the latest single from Zowie, a New Zealand pop singer attempting to capitalize on the horrible taste in music that has enveloped the iPod generation.

I've listened to it twice already, just for the sake of this… Continue reading Another Awful Ke$ha Clone (of the moment)

Donald Trump: Genius or Chump?

The Singing, Cursing and Cross-Dressing of the 83rd Academy Awards
Well, all the excitement from last night's highly anticipated Oscar ceremony is finally over, and what a bundle of thrills it was.

The Top Ten Best Films of 2010
2010 has been host to some truly inspiring works of cinematic art. In a year of catastrophic oil spills and Chilean miners trapped 2,300 ft underground, films allow us to momentarily forget these instances outside the theatre, letting us get sucked into the realities they create and raise a smile or arouse a tear. Sure,… Continue reading The Top Ten Best Films of 2010
Jackass 3D Review
Jackass has always been a guilty pleasure of mine. Viewing people hurting themselves over and over again may not seem like quality entertainment to some, but Jackass I have a special soft spot for. From the successful TV show - which sadly only aired for two years - to the feature-length movies - which were… Continue reading Jackass 3D Review
Paranormal Activity 2 Review
Paranormal Activity 2 is a film that callously strangles viewers with nail-chomping tension. I must admit I'm not usually much of a fan of asphyxiation forced upon myself or anyone else, but this, well, this is a special occasion. PA2 will, whether you like it or not, devilishly wrap its demonic, probably clawed fingers all… Continue reading Paranormal Activity 2 Review
I Love Movies, but I Hate Yours: Machete
Buenas tardes señoras y señores ("good afternoon, ladies and gentlemen", I think. I don't speak Spanish). Cinematic craziness comes in many, many forms - from over-the-top characters to generally random plot happenstances - and if there's one man who knows how to do it in style, it's multi-talented writer and director Robert Rodriguez. Within the… Continue reading I Love Movies, but I Hate Yours: Machete
Christopher Nolan and his INCEPTION
Could we just be honest with ourselves and admit that Inception was a cinematic masterpiece that far-exceeded anything he has done in the past?--and, yes, that does include The Dark Knight. Typically, when a film maker with Nolan's talent and ability creates a picture of this quality, he has shit the proverbial bed. Not so,… Continue reading Christopher Nolan and his INCEPTION
Jersey Shore: Miami…that makes sense.

Ron Paul: Nazi Creationist?
When I first learned of the existence of Ron Paul, I was legitimately excited--and rightly so! Along comes a political figure into the mainstream who reflects a decent Libertarian ideology of Constitutionalism and Freedom...but like graduating from college, my unparalleled optimism was soon crushed into a fine paste. The first element that killed my boner… Continue reading Ron Paul: Nazi Creationist?
The SuperDPS Guide to the Right

The Other Side of the Olympics
I'll say it so you don't have to: The Olympics are fucking boring. Yes, I recognize the athletic achievement and national pride (blah blah blah) that go along with this ancient sporting event, but it sucks. It's not fun to watch and it's even less fun to hear people talk about. That's right--Americans don't give… Continue reading The Other Side of the Olympics
SuperDPS Golden Globe Predictions 2010
The Golden Globes regularly tend to be--at very least--a watchable event. Even if you don't give a shit who wins and who loses, or what directors are being celebrated for their achievements, it's a star-studded event that will ultimately bring unprecedented joy into your sad, empty, meaningless life. This year, however, producers took a significant… Continue reading SuperDPS Golden Globe Predictions 2010

It Begins Again: The Death of Brittany Murphy
The bullshit about celebrity deaths coming in triples still serves to make me uneasy about the week ahead. Who's next? Bob Dylan? William Shatner?

She was a celebrity that happened to be somewhere on my list of hottest… Continue reading It Begins Again: The Death of Brittany Murphy
‘Jersey Shore’–Now You’re Fucking Stuck with it
The MTV masterpiece Jersey Shore premiered this past week and the media is already foutraged (fake-outraged). Have we not seen this shit before?

So it turns out we were wrong again. Another era of being caught up in sensationalism and "end of the world" hysteria has come upon us. But where do we stand now? Has everything that we've come to believe about a supposed Global Warming been complete horse shit? The short answer is "yes," with an… Continue reading Climate Change Clusterfuck
It’s high time….
So, fair readers, it's been a while since you've heard from ole Davey. Let's fill you in on what you've missed in the last few weeks or so.... Still unemployed, however, I'm now doing some part time stuff for our very good friends at Derisory Designs, based out of Good Ole Port Richmond. Cool-ass t-shirts… Continue reading It’s high time….
It’s Always Sunny on Christmas!
For those of you asking yourselves, "Does It's Always Sunny in Philadelphia really deserve a Christmas Special?" the answer--unquestionably--is YES! After a run of lackluster episodes in the previous season, Sunny is back on top. One of my favorite elements of the show--for better, or worse--is that the cast seems to truly and fully appreciate… Continue reading It’s Always Sunny on Christmas!
Do You Want to Holler ’til You Pass Out?!
I hate when people my age are obviously doing so much more with their lives. It's a difficult personality flaw to accept that not only do I consistently let myself down, but I'm also slightly afraid of success. Well--it's a good thing that Sean Foreman and Nathaniel Motte (both 24 and both from Boulder, Colorado) have gotten… Continue reading Do You Want to Holler ’til You Pass Out?!
Natalie Portman’s Rant on Meat is Murder…
If Natalie Portman's shaved head and sharp intellect didn't frighten your dick into recession, her latest outburst in Huffington Post surely will. Now, I like Natalie Portman. She was unquestionably the sexiest part of Mr. Magorium's Wonder Imporium. Apathetic women aren't particularly attractive, but neither are overly militant ones. Portman's article for the Huffington Post… Continue reading Natalie Portman’s Rant on Meat is Murder…
Celebrity Horseshit: Balloon Boy VS Spoon Boy
Everybody knows that kids are fucking stupid and do stupid things; but what does it say about adults--grown ups who should know better--when they turn the harmless, dumbass exploits of a stupid kid into a media clusterfuck that captures the hearts and minds of us all? As you know, this month was the dawn of… Continue reading Celebrity Horseshit: Balloon Boy VS Spoon Boy
Beat Kids: The Day of the Balloon Boy
When one makes an effort to travel for vacation, casually keeping up with the news often becomes a secondary notion. I make it my business to try to keep up with current trends and events, but with the cesspool of non-news, celebrity horseshit, and George Takei on the Newlywed Game, I can't reasonably be expected… Continue reading Beat Kids: The Day of the Balloon Boy
I’m excited about Ghostbusters III…am I stupid?
The short answer is "no." None of us who get a little pants-tingle over the notion of a third installment in the Ghostbusters franchise are particularly in the wrong. If you've played the Ghostbusters Video Game, you should have had some of that nostalgia satiated, but the need for something more often creeps unfulfilled through… Continue reading I’m excited about Ghostbusters III…am I stupid?
Hey Fellas–Avril Lavigne’s Single Again!
Where have I been? I know this is only a recent development, but shit--I wish I'd have known about this sooner. Evidently, after a three year marriage with Sum 41douchebag, Deryck (fucking) Whibley, Avril has kicked him to the curb, and is now subsequently free to make new and exciting shitty decisions. Perhaps her next celebrity… Continue reading Hey Fellas–Avril Lavigne’s Single Again!
Celebrity Horseshit: “Nigga Stole My Mic!”
As long as it's a hot topic, let's discuss the actions of Kanye West during the MTV VMA's, shall we? First of all--the actions took place at an award ceremony so ridiculous and unimportant--a locale so prone to spectacle--that its entire title is an acronym. Even in its name, it is screaming, "This is an… Continue reading Celebrity Horseshit: “Nigga Stole My Mic!”
The Health Care Debate, as I Understand it
In layman's terms, the phrase "layman's terms" refers to an explanation given so that the average Joe can understand it. It is an idea explained (perhaps by an expert) in a manner that a layperson, or non-expert, can easily grasp. But seeing as how many of America's laypersons are out of work and uninsured, I… Continue reading The Health Care Debate, as I Understand it
Enjoy Your Stay at Arkham Asylum
After a long period of waiting around for a decent Batman game to launch after the disappointing Batman Begins clusterfuck, fans of the Dark Knight are finally rewarded. I've played Batman games before, but it has always felt like a typical action game featuring a central character wearing a Batman costume. Arkham Asylum created a… Continue reading Enjoy Your Stay at Arkham Asylum
Porn Girl Amber Chase’s LIFE: Tweeted
Hey you, I’m @AmberChase, and I have a confession…. I love @Twitter, I mean really; I have met so many cool people through Twitter – face to face even, and sometimes more. In fact, I wouldn’t be writing to you cuties if I hadn’t met @SuperDPS through Twitter. I love how it connects me to people,… Continue reading Porn Girl Amber Chase’s LIFE: Tweeted
MARVEL & the Mouse: Disney’s Grasp on Comic Cinema
The Twitterverse is alive and buzzing with the swine-like squeal of outrage over The Walt Disney Company's upcoming purchase of MARVEL Entertainment Incorporated for upwards of $4 Billion in cash and stock. According to the Associated Press, this monumental purchase will include the film rights to about 5,000 Marvel Comics characters ranging from Iron Man… Continue reading MARVEL & the Mouse: Disney’s Grasp on Comic Cinema
Why You’re Wrong About District 9
It's no secret that the quality of film as a whole has taken a couple dozen blows to the skull. But who wields the bat/board-with-a-nail-in-it? Is it the Directors who have given up on their creative conscience? Is it the Producers who are so mired in Teen Romances and Straight-To-DVDs that they lose all vision… Continue reading Why You’re Wrong About District 9
Sex Blogger Misty Kaye’s 10 Reasons I Won’t Reply to You
Men, you suck at online dating. You're not just a little bit bad at it. You really, really suck. Yes, you've got it tough. More than half of the decent personal ads out there are just spammers in disguise, and the real girls are so inundated with potential suitors that you're likely to get lost… Continue reading Sex Blogger Misty Kaye’s 10 Reasons I Won’t Reply to You
