50 Cent Announces Long Island Grandmother as Newest Member of G-Unit

Baldwin, Long Island, New York – In a move some are saying is brilliant, if not some sort of basic error, 50 Cent unveiled the newest member of the hip hop collective “G-Unit,” Thursday, 73 year old Gertrude “Gertie” Schwartzfarb. The self described cat-lover and homemaker replaces former member Young Buck and joins convicted felon and admitted drug dealer Tony Yayo as well as platinum recording rap artist Lloyd Banks as a member of G Unit. Schwartzfarb was announced as the newest member at a press conference at MTV studios in Manhattan.

The news has already sent shock waves through the rap community. Stunned former G-Unit member The Game had this to say. “I’m a stab that fuckin’ bitch in the heart yo. I’m a kill that bitch faster then a myocardial infarction. She sent me a card on my birthday with $5 in it, that’s a mutha fuckin’ insult.”

At the introductory press conference and celebratory bingo game, 50 Cent made reference to Schwartzfarb’s killing prowess. “Yo, this bitch is a cold hearted killer so she know what up. Wait a second, did they just say B4? Awww yeah! Bingo mutha fuckas. Pay me my money bitches!”

Banks had this to say, “Gertie is mad hard yo. We was at a party gettin’ high as fuck, and this bitch whips out, like 30 different pills. She knows how to get down.” A recent call to Mrs. Schwartzfarb’s doctor showed that she currently has prescriptions for blood pressure medication: diovan, levatol, as well as several other beta blockers.

An American hip hop group originating from New York City, G-Unit emerged on the New York scene by independently releasing several mixtapes. The name of the group is short for “Guerrilla Unit” as well as “Gangsta Unit”. “Shit, more like Geriatric-Unit now, if you ask me,” added The Game.

spinning necklaceGertrude had this to say, “I don’t know why all these colored gentleman are so interested in me. I’m just so glad to have company and I love the spinning medallion they gave me. I just wish they’d stop cursing and yelling so much. And would it kill them to take their sneakers off when they come over the house?”

Industry insiders are saying that 50 Cent actually meant to announce Queens based rapper Gertie Kill-Dat-Ho as the actual new member of G-Unit and that he is simply too embarrassed to admit his mistake. Still others believe that a 1973 car accident in which Mrs. Schwartzfarb accidentally killed five people may have somehow led 50 to believe the Long Island Grandmother would raise the street cred of the group. Regardless, many believe this is the most inappropriate addition to a rap group since The Fat Boys accidentally named 134 lbs Ethiopian rapper “40 Ounce” to their lineup in 1986.

Presidential Firsts

In honor of Barack Obama becoming the first African American elected to the White House, we at Buzz Pirates feel obligated to relive other presidential firsts throughout American history.

April 30, 1789 - Within 4 minutes of being sworn in as the 1st president George Washington abuses hispower as the leader of the free world by immediately appointing himself Vice-president, Secretary of State, Secretary of War, Ombudsman, Exchequer, Viscount, Duke of Awesomeness, & P-Dog Pimp of Pennsylvania Ave. The first in a long line of rich white men imbued with an exaggerated sense of omnipotence that would eventually extend to Mr. Obama…our first rich black man with an exaggerated sense of omnipotence.

August 22, 1805 – Thomas Jefferson becomes the first president to realize the non-gustatory benefit of “brown sugar”. He was known to remark “methinks that slave doth provide a posterior of adequate qualitie”

January 16, 1834 – In a moment of innovative exuberance but poor foresight, Martin Van Buren becomes the first president to have his face adorn coin currency. Unfortunately this involved literally pressing his face into a large disk of molten hot metal. Only one of these coins was ever minted.

April 4, 1841 – William Henry Harrison becomes the first president to die in office 30 days after his inauguration. Since early drafts of the constitution assumed that our omnipotent rich white men would live forever, a contingency plan was needed, but it took time. So, while relief president John Tyler was warming up in the bullpen, Harrison also became the first president to govern while dead.

March 4, 1861 – Abraham Lincoln becomes our first homosexual president…end of story.

October 12, 1879 – Rutherford B. Hayes became the first president to suggest that Martin Luther King’s Birthday be made a national holiday. Of course considering this was 50 years before King was actually born, people were not very receptive. Other ideas of his that were given only lukewarm reception: giving official statehood to the moon, mandatory naked Fridays at the office, and public funding for peanut butter flying saucer elephants.

March 4, 1893 – Grover Cleveland becomes the first president to serve a second non-consecutive term. Cleveland convinced the American people that he just needed to pick up a few items that he left behind from the first term. Postmaster General Wilson Bissell distinctly overheard Cleveland mumble “suckers” under his breath. But payback is a bitch, and we’ve immortalized Cleveland’s legacy by naming a grungy New Jersey Turnpike rest stop and a grotesque blue muppet after him.

1909 – 3 minutes after the Oval office was constructed William Howard Taft became the first president to violate an intern in the office with a common household object….it was a spatula embossed with the presidential seal and the quote “Hail to The Chef.” Interestingly, Taft also holds the presidential record for firsts. He was the first:

* To become a Supreme Court justice after his term in office
* To throw out the first ceremonial first pitch at a baseball game
* To eat the first ceremonial buffalo at a buffalo eating contest.
* To pat his head and rub his stomach simultaneously while violating an intern
* To envision a foreign dignitary’s head as a giant cartoon ham hock

1932 - Franklin Roosevelt is widely believed to be the first president bound to a wheelchair. This is a half truth. FDR was placed in a wheelchair as a shrewd political strategy to sway the coveted “Cripple Belt” of the Southeastern US during the 1932 election. In reality, FDR was a world class jumpist who double majored in kicking and deep knee bends in college.

January 1947 – Harry Truman delivers the first televised state of the union address. Initially apprehensive, Truman quickly warms up to the idea of being in front of the camera, and especially, warms up to the idea of being in make-up and becoming a “superstar”. Eventually he would be found prancing around the Rose Garden in full drag and posing for his millions of adoring fans. All the while shouting his famous lines, “The buck stops here…darling!” and “If you can’t stand the heat, get out of the kitchen… because it’s murder on your skin!”

September 21, 1981 – In what political pundit William F. Buckley called “a truly Rutherford B. Hayesian maneuver”, Ronald Reagan appoints Sandra Day O’Connor as the first female Supreme Court justice. Although admired for his trailblazing choice of a woman to sit on the highest court in the land, Reagan later admitted that his choice was accidental, a result of hallucinations caused by excessive use of the hair dye red #2.

January, 1993 – “Slick Willy” Bill Clinton authorizes the use of the first Cabinet “Casting Couch” in order to score, in his words, some “righteous poon”. The endeavor is moderately successful with Janet Reno getting Attorney General, Donna Shalala landing Secretary of Health & Human Services, & Warren Christopher scooping up Secretary of State.

2000-2008 – George W. Bush became the first president to actually make America a less livable place than Botswana.

Megan Fox is the New Wonder Woman… Psyche!

Ever wonder how a web hoax is born? In a movie rumor that had fanboys drooling and pretty much every regular guy drooling too, uber-hottie Megan Fox was announced to be playing Wonder Woman. The Transformers beauty who became in instant sensation seems like the perfect fit for the role? There’s one catch though…the news is fake. Wonder-Who.com revealed that Fox would suit up as DC Comics heroine Wonder Woman in an upcoming big-budget movie.

Various studio types have been trying to get the lasso and invisible plane on the screen for years. Several other stars such as Jennifer Lopez, Sandra Bullock, Rachel Bilson, and Catherine Zeta-Jones have been rumored to be up for the role Lynda Carter was famous for. Producer Joel Silver was once on board. Buffy and Firefly Joss Whedon told Entertainment Weekly (my favorite magazine) the following in 2006 when he was attached to writing a Wonder Woman script:

“Besides [Wonder Woman's] great origin story, there’s nothing from the comics that felt right 100 percent, no iconic canon story that must be told. Batman has it made – he’s got the greatest rogues gallery ever, he’s got Gotham City. The Bat writes himself. With Wonder Woman, you’re writing from whole cloth, but trying to make it feel like you didn’t. To make it feel like it’s existed for 60 years, even though you’re making it up as you go along. But who she, and what the movie, is about, thematically, has never been a problem for me. But the steps along the way, it could be so easy for them to feel wrong. I won’t settle. She wouldn’t let me settle.”

Warner Bros. has since confirmed that the Wonder-Who.com site was “complete B.S.” By the time you read this, the site may be closed down. Still we can still “wonder” what might have been. Hell, I’d go see Wonder Woman if Megan Fox was in the lead. Although, for all the male fans that Megan Fox has, I “wonder” if she has any female fans. Most women probably view her as “that skinny bitch from that toy robot movie. That said, it is possible that someone making a big version of this movie would pick a female actress with a broader appeal. Still, maybe this rumor will put the idea of Megan Fox in the right executive’s head… at least one of them.

Update: Looks like she won’t be Wonder Woman (yet), but has signed on to play an angel opposite the Wrestler’s Mickey Rourke in director Mitch Glazer‘s drama Passion Plays. The 1950s Los Angeles-set movie finds Fox’s character, described as a slender beauty with wings who is part of a carnival, helping a down-in-the-skids trumpeter (Rourke) be redeemed.

Iranian President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad Denies the Existence of Barbra Streisand

Tehran, Iran: In a shocking announcement Iranian president Mahmoud Ahmadinejad blasted Jews worldwide Thursday by denying the existence of Barbra Streisand. Ahmadinejadt addressed the single member of the Iranian press, Chancellor of Media, Grazza Mazzoud with a metered and aggressive rhetoric sidestepping clear historic documentation and logic in the process. The statement  mirrored his now infamous comments denying the Holocaust in which millions of Jews were exterminated.

“The existence of Barbra Streisand, is just one theory, there is no clear proof that she exists” Ahmadinejad said. “The horned infidels [Jews] want the world to believe the existence of this mythical singing/acting big-nosed “Babs.” Don’t believe the head of the serpent, “You Don’t Bring Me Flowers” is a call for the slaughtering of all Muslim women and children.”

Iranian scholar Razmaza Khomeini, in an interview with state run Channel 1 News, pointed to the fact that he had seen Streisand in the movie Meet the Fockers on a plane traveling from Dubai to Tehran. He delicately suggested that President Ahmadinejad might have been misled by the cursed Hebrew god on this issue. Khomeini, his wife Asal, son Mansoor and cat Sprinkles were all immediately hung for treason.

Republican Presidential candidate John McCain was quick to respond. “I have a solid record of believing in the birth, existence and historical significance of Barbara Streisand. I have had several conversations with General Petraeus on this matter and if elected president I will deploy 500,000 troops directly to Barbara Streisand.” McCain also took the opportunity to slam Democratic Presidential candidate Barack Obama. “If elected president, Obama will gay marry Ahmadinejad in a Nazi ceremony while standing on a burning American flag. Mr. Obama… the American people will not stand for this! When I am President of the United States I immediately will bomb, bomb, bomb Iran while simultaneously watching Yentl on a continuous loop.”

On the home front American Jews have been outraged by the denial of Streisand’s existence. “Oy! What is this fercockt President talking about?” said Long Island, New York resident Ethel Berkowitz. “Barbara is a national treasure. This Ahmad-wah-wah whatever his name, is a messhuggina. He should see Babs in Prince of Tides…he’ll need a whole box of Kleenex just like my [husband] Harvey did. He should come over; we’ll get a nosh from Schlesinger’s [deli] and make an afternoon out of it.”

Not all Americans are outraged. Noted Hollywood anti-Semite Mel Gibson told Variety that he has been working on a documentary with his father dispelling the “Streisand Myth” for four years. Gibson also  mumbled “Damn Jews” under his breath 17 times in the interview.

After denying the existence of Streisand, matzo ball soup, Tufts University and pennies, President Ahmadinejadt signed into a law a bill compelling all Iranian citizens to eat at Chick-fil-a at least twice week.

Regional Sales Manager Rallies Team by Declaring Fall 2008 “Hammer Time”

Knoxville, Tennessee: An already excruciating Power Point presentation by regional sales manager Harvey Blythe was brought to new lows Tuesday, when he declared the most recent sales drive to be “Hammer Time.” The rallying cry “Hammer Time” was inspired by Oakland rapper Stanley “M.C. Hammer” Burrell and his early 1990’s rap hit “U Can’t Touch This.” The recently promoted Blythe addressed the 12 person sales team in conference room B with forced enthusiasm and absolutely no irony. In addition, “U Can’t Touch This” was played at various volumes 40 times during the 85 minute presentation.

In what sales associate Stephanie Katz called “the whitest thing she’d ever seen” Blythe feebly crossed his arms and tilted his head every time he said Hammer Time during the presentation. The mood in the room went from uncomfortable to downright squeamish when Blythe singled out African American Sales Rep Tony Montgomery and you said “you know what I’m talking about bro” after saying Hammer Time for the first time.

“At first I thought he was joking,” said assistant sales manager Helen Kim, “but then I realized he was serious in thinking “Hammer Time” was a recent pop culture reference. Maybe he doesn’t own a tv or something?” She continued, “I did my best to help by saying the sales team was “Too Legit 2 Quit,” but Harvey looked at me with a blank stare, like I was the uncool person in the room. That’s when I decided to let him go down with his pop-culture deficient ship.”

The 11:45am start time did not help lift the team’s morale as lunch was certainly going to be late, rushed or skipped all together. Disgruntled sales rep Todd Feller voiced his frustration while clicking through his fantasy football team in his cubicle later that afternoon: “I was ready to freak out when I realized I’d be eating Munchos out of the vending machine again for lunch. The sunglasses he put on at the end of his lame ass power point presentation was the perfect topping for his shit sandwich presentation. U Can’t Touch This? This guy is definitely in the dorkestra and he “can touch” this (pointing at his crotch).”

Montgomery summed up the Hammer Time presentation, “it was pretty lame, but it was better than when Douche [Regional Sales Manager Paul Dusherson] said that Spring 2008 [‘s sales campaign] was worse than when sales rep Wendy Myers had an abortion.

Tom Brady’s Fantasy Office Team in Trouble Because of Carpal Tunnel Syndrome Injury

This just in from the buzzpirates fake news desk…

Tragedy struck DigitialSystemFan23 team owner Tom Brady today as his best fantasy league Software Engineer Charles Wei went down with season ending Carpal Tunnel Syndrome on Tuesday morning. This ended the season of one of the leagues biggest stars and most reliable source of fantasy points for over 5 seasons of code input.

Fellow AwesomeLeague!! team owner Chad “Ocho Cinco” Johnson took a full offensive series off from his day job as a professional football player to post “sux to be you, Gay-Dy, I told you Wei was a bi-atch! DeathbyFax2 is taking it to the house! VP of Marketing Bryce Johanson is the mannnn!” on the AwesomeLeague!! message board following news of the injury.

Fantasy Office has become a popular online distraction for NFL players as team owners can draft office workers who earn points in a variety of statistical categories such as job completion, client contact, sales, earnings, customer service, growth, sent fax confirmations, promotions, 401k and health benefit upgrades.

Brady has yet to comment on the AwesomeLeague!! message board or sign a new team member, as there are roughly 38 million free agent office workers available in his 8 team league. BrettRocks team owner and New York Jets Quarterback Brett Farve put some perspective on the injury. “Well, these are the types of things that happen in any office season. Years of stress on a software engineer’s hands and the hiring of 400,000 software engineers this year alone amps up the pressure. Plus, I told him Wei was a bi-atch a month ago. All that guy does is operate and maintain the same codes he was working on for the past 5 years. Brady, uh, I mean Wei, is a system guy… not a gunslinger by any means.”

“My fat ass boss [Romeo Crennel] is constantly up my ass about getting my touchdowns done and shit,” said Cleveland Browns linebacker D’Qwell Jackson. “What a fucking deuche, that’s why nobody tells him where we go for happy hour after games. Besides, he’d eat all the wings… fat fuck. Eli Manning is in an Office League on CBS Officeline and EOPN and his company the Giants won the Super Bowl.” When asked about Fantasy Office, Crennel replied, “hey, I told these guys they could play their little fairy tale Office game during halftime or after they are finished with their football work for the day. I don’t get it anyway, it makes you root for all the wrong reasons. I like Pfizer, especially Programming Coordinator Sharon McCrudden… how could I possibly root for Glaxo Wellcome? The whole thing seems totally against being a fan of the magic that is office work.”

NFL Commissioner Roger Goddell responded to criticism that allowing fantasy leagues has made football production plummet. “Its clear that some level of yardage and touchdown production has declined, but that could be any one of a number of distractions what with all the pornography being looked at by the 49ers, the midgame two hour lunches the Atlanta Falcons secondary takes and of course we all like to talk to that one cheerleader at the reception desk. Besides, we still lead the world economy in football production. We don’t have to outsource to Latin America and Japan like baseball and we certainly don’t need guys with names with 13 consonants in a row like hockey. Where else yeah gonna get football? A Rugby game? Australian rules football? You won’t find a 6’9” 323 pound guy arrested at a strip club with an uzi in Melbourne, I’ll tell you that, friend.”

When pressed about going too easy about football production this season due to his own fantasy league team MichaelChiklis Out-Me In the NFL Owners Fantasy Office league RICH GUYZ, Goodell added, “whatever, I told [Patriots2 owner] Robert Kraft that Wei guy was a bia-tch from the start.”

High ranking executive wide receiver Terrell Owens had this to say about the Owners’ league. “That league is a points based league…we go head to head in ours, its totally more like working in a real office.” When asked about his touchdown proficiency Owens added. “I told [co-worker] Tony Romo that whenever T.O.’s catching another boring touchdown, T.O. loves to fantasize about what it would be like to oversee a support staff of five people as a mid-level manager. Too bad about Brady though, that injury to Wei is going to hurt way more then his pending knee surgery”

Michael Phelps Drowns in Beijing Olympic Tragedy

This Just in From the Buzz Pirates Fake News Desk:

Beijing, China- Despite his unbelievable streak of 11 gold medals in swimming, Olympic hero Michael Phelps drowned today in an attempt for medal number 12. Although he was fitted with floaties on both arms, a life jacket and an inflatable ducky around his waist, Phelps was unable to avoid drowning in 4 feet of water during the 200m Men’s Freestyle event. Sports Illustrated previously printed that if “Michael Jordan and Tiger Woods had a baby, and you threw that baby in the water, he would be Michael Phelps.” Sadly, those words rang all too true today at the Beijing National Aquatics Centre, as Phelps showed the swimming prowess of a newborn from the second he entered the pool.

NBC’s Olympic coverage of the event has been around the clock. The 3am broadcast of running or ping pong or horse slapping or something Belgium is good at was interrupted for a special report by Bob Costas. The slightly boyish/slightly old/somewhat trollish looking (but always classy) Costas stated this was “the worst American Olympic tragedy of this type since Seoul 1988 when Greg Louganis dove into a pool with no water in it.”

University of Hawaii Swimologist Dr. Lance Pool has long been an advocate for the anti-drowning movement. Shocked by the Phelps tragedy, the author of Staying Afloat and Swim for Your Life told us that he firmly believes that “swimming is still the best way to keep from drowning.”

US flag waving onlookers were aghast at the sight of Phelps’ behavior from the beginning of the race. A full minute before the official start, the 2007 Speedo Man of the Year, Michael Phelps yelled “cannonball” while holding his nose. He jumped into the pool, bumping into French swimmer Alain Bernard and nearly knocking him into the water in the process. Race officials said it was probably the most disturbing display of horseplay since the shameful “Mark Spitz incident” at the 1972 Munich games. In Germany that year, Spitz ran around the slippery surface surrounding the pool in a reckless manner, yelling the whole time. When race officials urged him to stop, so that he would not “crack his head open” and pleaded with him to use his “inside voice,” Spitz jumped in the pool and relieved himself screaming “I have to go onesies!” As a result of the embarrassing affair, Munich Olympic officials installed the now infamous “we don’t swim in your toilet, please don’t pee in our pool” sign which hangs in Munich Municipal Pool to this day. As punishment for the event, US Swimming Federation officials took away Spitz’s favorite mustache comb for 2 weeks. In Phelps’ case, US Swimming Federation officials were planning on a punishment of “no Nintendos for a month.” Fortunately Phelps died, so they would be spared the sad look on his face that was sure to follow the entire plane ride back to the States.

The tragedy calls into question Olympic Swimming safety precautions in Beijing. For instance, there have been over 30 Olympic swimming events scheduled for this year’s games, yet there hasn’t been a lifeguard on duty for a single one of them. In addition, it has been reported that Michael Phelps ate a hamburger, a hotdog and a big piece of ice cream cake a mere 10 minutes before entering the pool. 

 These types of shenanigans and blatant disregard of safety have brought Congressman Dryton T. Desert’s controversial proposition 47 back into the nation’s collective conscience. Proposition 47 called for the destruction of all of the nations swimming pools. Congressman Desert called for an “end to the nations wet menace” and for a “cease fire of all the splashing.” Some called the Congressman a revolutionary, some called him insane, still more simply said that he was being a baby about getting thrown in the pool while wearing a suit at the House of Representatives annual Pool Party and BBQ back in 1989.

Regardless, the untimely demise of Michael Phelps will be sure to spark a lot of talk once every four years during Olympic coverage. Someone will probably even refer to him as a hero, because of how he, um, you know, swam all fast and whatnot. Skip Sunray from Swim Magazine had this to say. “Michael Phelps has appeared on the cover of Swim Magazine, like, 10 straight times. We’ve called him the greatest swimmer in the history of time. I don’t understand how this could have possibly happened. I guess he forgot his buddy or something.”
