Do you find strip clubs lacking in culture?  Are readings too literary?  Big fan of on-the-nose titles?  Well an event called “Naked Girls Reading Pulp Fiction” might be just the thing for you.

Not quite sure if this sounds incredibly funny or incredibly stupid but what we have here is exactly what it sounds like.Young women taking off their clothes and reading before a live audience. The women — Scarlett Letter, Angelita Purrvertina, Miss Josie Bunnie, and La Fille Damnee — normally work as burlesque dancers. This time around they’ll be reading from detective stories, men’s magazines, trashy novels and sleazy sex paperbacks. And for kicks, there is a free wine reception after the show. It’s still a pretty win-win situation. [LAWeekly - though the post is gone now]

Ha, “Angelita Purrvertina.”  Sounds like a case of Isabella Tryingtooharderella there.  Naked women reading though, huh?  Well la di dah, Princess Smartypants, are you going to keep your pinkie out during the handjob too?  Whatever, I’m still wearing sweatpants.  Anyway, I haven’t seen any reviews of the event yet, so if you’ve got an eye witness report, I’d love to hear it.  Something tells me Eric Stoltz’ famous “you mean the one with all the sh*t in her face?” line could apply to most of the actresses in this case.  And the audience.

This is a song created using only sound effects from Pulp Fiction, accompanied by video showing where each sound effect came from, all synched up and split screened so you can watch it in real time.  I have no technical expertise or attention span, so it goes without saying that I could never create something like this.  What I can do is share it with you, and helicopter my wiener to the beat while holding my cat over my head.  I don’t like to brag, but it impresses the sh-t out of the neighbors.

(“What has two index fingers and sucks at driving?”)

Roger Avary, who won an Oscar for co-writing Pulp Fiction and also directed Rules of Attraction, was sentenced to a year in jail plus five years probation, for DUI and vehicular manslaughter, for causing a fatal accident in January 2008.  There are lots of fors in that sentence.

Avary pleaded guilty in August to gross vehicular manslaughter and drunken driving for the 2008 crash that killed a passenger in Avary’s Mercedes in Ventura County. Authorities say Avary’s car was traveling at more than 100 mph when it crashed into a telephone pole.  Avary’s wife was ejected from the vehicle and was treated for non-life-threatening injuries.

I’d love to feel sorry for him, but… 100 miles per hour?  Don’t you idiots know you’re supposed to be extra cautious when you drive hammered?  Christ, it’s like none of these GD hippies teach their kids how to drunk drive anymore.

Prior to his inevitable sequel to Transformers 2, Michael Bay tells MTV he might take a year off to do a “small movie.”

“It’s based on a true story, and it’s very funny,” Bay added, “It’s a dark comedy.”

Although Bay wouldn’t cough up details on the film’s plot and said it is currently untitled, he is making plans to film it next year for a small budget, and has had his eye on the script for some time. “It’s good,” he explained. “It’s like a ‘Pulp Fiction’-type of movie.”

Pressed for more details, Bay said, “Metaphorically speaking, the major difference between my movie and Pulp Fiction will be that in my movie, we’ll actually show you what’s in the suitcase.  Spoiler Alert: It’s f*cking dynamite.  And I don’t mean that metaphorically.”

Roger Avary, who won an oscar along with Quentin Tarantino for writing Pulp Fiction (he’s credited as “stories by Roger Avary”), was arrested on suspicion of manslaughter and DUI.

Avary, 42, was the driver in the single-car collision shortly after midnight Sunday in Ojai, said Capt. Ross Bonfiglio of the Ventura County Sheriff’s Department.

Killed in the accident was Andreas Zini, 34, a resident of Italy who was apparently visiting the couple. Firefighters cut Zini from the car with Jaws of Life, and he died several hours later at Ventura County Medical Center. 

Avary’s wife Gretchen, 40, was ejected from the car and found in the road by deputies, Bonfiglio said. She was hospitalized in stable condition.

Perhaps a joke here wouldn’t be in the best taste.  I may make light of killing hookers, but that’s because killing hookers is funny.  Manslaughter is no laughing matter.
