NOW THERE’S SOMETHING YOU DON’T SEE EVERY DAY…
If there’s a WTF Hall of Fame, this is in it… From yesterday’s Daily Express, quite possibly the greatest news story intro of all time:
Moviemaker Brett Ratner lost his virginity to a paraplegic dangling from a tree – and now he has turned the sexual encounter into a scene in his latest film….
Incidentally, at the bottom of the page, it says “Have Your Say” is unavailable for this story. Probably for the best.

Jesus, I already thought Brett Ratner was an odious twat of mammoth proportions, if only for terminally tainting the X-Men franchise with his offering. I imagine he thinks this is ‘edgy cinema’. It’s not, it’s full-blooded cuntgoblinery.

That’s pretty weird…. But, then, I lost my virginity to an Oompa Loompa swinging on a stainless steel gate, so who am I to judge?

He really didn’t have to do much to terminally taint X-men

I used to work for an art handling/shipping co. in Los Angeles…Ratner had an account there…it gave away what a douche he was when we got in some items from him, and one was a large (probably 8′ tall) cardboard cutout of an Academy Award. On the base it said “WHEN?” with a phone number to call. How badly we wanted to dial up that number…
