Tiffany vs. Debbie Gibson: Not Quite Mozart vs.Salieri
Pop Culture has a long tradition of compelling rivalries that spur interest we didn’t know we had – Jack vs. Sawyer, Coke vs. Pepsi, Betty vs. Veronica, Biggie vs. Tupac, Mc Donald’s vs. Burger King, Jerry vs. Newman, Godzilla vs. King Kong. Often these competitions serve to better creativity or innovation in each other, sometimes both are destroyed in the process. This is something else entirely!
The SyFy channel has release the first rough footage of Mega Shark vs. Gatoroid, the movie which also marks the latent onscreen antagonism between Debbie Gibson and Tiffany. Thirty-something adolescent boys have been waiting twenty years for this and… well … don’t get your hopes up the way I did (my interests include Tiffany and anything with “mega” in the title), it ain’t the Thrilla in Manila (I don’t think they’d allow this in Manila, and my buddy, Rocket, once bought a human face there!)
You can watch the battle rage campily at Mega-Gibson vs. Tiffanyoid
Remember when Vince Neil wanted to fight Axl Rose? Yeah, this video will make you wish for that.

I Learned Spanish Just to try to Understand Mexican TV
There has been talk for years about the escalating craziness of Japanese television. People get injured on a regular basis, there are a ton of zany costumes, everything happens at lightning pace, and anyone who knows what’s going on can’t stop laughing long enough to explain it to the viewer. All valid statements. Now add [...]
Demon Dogs! Thundarr the Barbarian Fights for Respect Among Geeks
I am a geek. You, our one fan, are a geek. Wear that badge boldly in this Golden Age of Dorkiness! That being said – and with all respect, some people geek out on stuff I forgot even existed!
What do you get when you simmer a stew out of pop culture ingredients like Dungeons & [...]
Where’s Lex Luthor When We Need Him?
Frequent thedailyjim.com contributor, Billy D. called late-night, as he sometimes does. “Duke (I have no idea why he calls me that, but he always does.)! Duke, we’ve got a supervillain problem. Do you think that cat lady thief in New York City and that dude who dresses as Darth Vader to rob banks have the [...]
From Flintstones to Fight Club: Versions of the Men’s Social Club
As evidenced by The Flintstones, guys have always needed a place to get away from the pressures of work and family, to drink a big mug of cactus juice, play a little rocknasta with Sam Slagheap and the boys while plotting the demise of their mothers-in-law. Fred and Barney favored the Loyal Order of Water [...]
