If you’re a dude, the odds are decent that – from time to time – your room looks sloppier than Britney Spears after a weekend binger. It is nothing to be ashamed of! Like peeing the bed after a twelve hour sloshfest, being messy is a completely natural part of college manhood.

This is the very reason COED has joined up with BREAK and MGM’s “College”; to celebrate the times when your room is so trashed, you can’t even get the drunk Chi Omega chick to come into your room with you. Turn that frown upside down you messy little bastard! These are dark times for sure, but what if you could get $5000 just for being a slob?!

Follow the easy steps below and you could be on your way to your own college stimulus package:

Everybody knows the Barack and Michelle Obama are in a genuine relationship, with genuine love and affection for each other. But I bet you didn’t know THIS little tidbit. My question is, how does this woman know this?

A couple of months ago we reported that Fox Studios filed a motion to halt the release date of Watchmen by Warner Brothers on March 6th.  On December 24th 2008, a judge declared, “Fox owns a copyright consisting of, at the very least, the right to distribute the Watchmen motion picture.” Last weekend attorney’s began negotiating a settlement.

Last night the matter was settled with Warner Brothers reportedly paying “a sizable cash payment” and reportedly 8.5% of Watchmen’s box office to Fox. Fox also reportedly will get a piece of any sequels or spin-offs produced. If the movie is successful this could be tens of millions of dollars. But the film’s legal troubles aren’t over yet.

I have watched this one 30 plus times and am still laughing my ass off. Instant classic.

Props to GorillaMask for uncovering this little gem.

If so, I can’t find it.

So Obama is done giving his speech, and I am flipping between MSNBC with Chris Matthews/Keith Oberman and FOX.

If Matthews and Oberman were any more up Obama’s ass – they would have been covered in sh*t. FOX on the otherhand, might has well have been burning pictures of Obama and were tearing apart every vocal inflection he made.

What ever happened to impartial news reporting? I remember growing up and feeling that I could believe anything the news people reported, because there was this integrity of impartial news reporting. Those days are gone.

If you were to flip, as I am right now, you would think the reporters watched 2 completely different speeches. You can’t argue the fact that Obama is a great public speaker, but why not simply highlight the points he made? No, of course not. Everyone needs to give their 2 cents as to what they took away from him.

But Keith Oberman? Really? Dude, you were on SportsCenter…please stop. Tell me what you think about Favre moving to the Jets, don’t interpret political language and positioning.

That was exhausting just to watch.

FOX To Stream Fall Premieres For Dorms

In a first, Fox will stream the premiere of “Fringe” and season opener of “Terminator: The Sarah Connor Chronicles” online at the same time as they bow on TV.

But there’s a catch: Only computer users on college campuses will be able to log in to watch the simul-stream.

Move helps Fox expose the trend-setting college audience — who are more likely to have computers than TVs in their dorm rooms — to the shows. [Variety]

US Colleges Moving To Retire Cafeteria Trays

Crammed on middle linebacker Derek Walker’s plate are beef, mashed potatoes, gravy, corn, spinach and a roll. In the other hand, he balances a salad and a bottle of hot sauce. He lumbers through the small, tabled-filled cafeteria and plunks down without spilling a drop.

All without a tray.

“You’ve just got to do with what you have,” Walker said. Glenville State has joined an increasing number of colleges and universities that have shed their cafeteria trays. [Google]

Beijing 2008: College Olympians to Remember

It could be stocks, cars, widgets, ads, stereos, it doesn’t matter: there’s a high percentage of you that will ‘get’ to experience possibly this less-than-glamorous career path.

“The word ’salesperson’ conjures up a lot of stereotypes,” says Jeffery Fox, a Harvard Business graduate and founder of Fox & Company, an award-winning marketing consulting firm. ‘It makes me think of Glengarry Glen Ross. That is NOT a good example of a sales person. It can be a school teacher selling students on writing, parents selling a kid on cleaning a room – it’s more than just sales.”

In his book Secrets of Great Rainmakers, Fox goes to great lengths to differentiate between a normal salesperson and a rainmaker, who is a salesperson that “sells the most, makes the best, and does it during any condition.”

The good news? Fox can make you rain – or is that reign?

Is becoming a ‘rainmaker’ easy? Is it teachable?

The best sales people are actually modest, quiet and ask a lot of questions. That’s something that can be taught. But it’s hard for schools to do. Very few faculty have the necessary battle scars; they come from an academic-oriented mindset, a lot statistics. That’s not what I teach. (more…)

Fox sure knows how to make brainless, uncomfortable programming.

If The Moment of Truth flirts with disaster, Battle of the Bods goes right for the jugular: it consists of five girls who compare each other’s assets on a scale from 1 to 5, in hopes of placing each other in the same rated order as three judge(mental) dudes watching them from behind a two-way mirror.

The girl who matches the judge’s decisions closest wins a cash prize.

American values, you’ve done it again! (more…)

This January, Fox will be trudging out Moment of Truth, a new show that pits mankind versus the most diabolical of machines: lie detectors.

Lie detectors, the unveiling of personal secrets, absolute truth – what could possibly go wrong?

Fox, ever the innovators, ordered the pilot for Moment of Truth in August, which is based on the successful (and recently canceled) Columbian series, Nothing But the Truth. As the Columbian rendition has proven, lie detector shows can get a bit messy when certain questions are asked.

Fox has taken precautions since that debacle, and will stick to questions about a contestant’s personal history, not legal matters. (more…)
