This Week's Kid Nation: We're Terrorized With Love

DO NOT let this show near an airplane! The love that will invariably well in your bosom could cause your heart to explode. We were tempted to let this picture speak for itself in this post because it so accurately conveys how we feel about the residents of Bonanza City. But so much crizazy shit went down this week, we had no choice but to chronicle every second of it as it happened.

Ladies, Gentlemen, allows us to recap yo ass...:

-GREG IS SUCH A LOSER! We are seriously offended by this guy. He's mean, and ugly, and bracefaced -the three traits we hate more than anything in a person (That and also OBX stickers. Oh and being a cat person).

-We think Poor Innocent Little Christian Mallory Babydoll Girl from Indiana said it best: "I hear Greg talking mean out there..."

-Taylor last week: "I'm sorry but you're just gonna have to starve."
Taylor this week: "QUIET! 930 is our curfew! If anyone has a problem with it, sorry, but you're gonna have to deal with it!"
Taylor next week:


-Green team you are gross. Kids your age don't care about other people! They care about Xbox and Hannah Montana and pizza bagels and stuff. We don't buy your whole little wholesome loser schtick. You're up to something Green Team... and we're on to you.

-"Colton is one the toughest kids, one of the bravest kids Ive ever met in my entire life." -Zac, on Colton.

-For real though, Colton is the toughest kid ever. He goes on a vision quest every day and one time we saw him stare down this bull that was gonna try and charge him until Colton's steely eyed glare turned his bovine heart to glue and killed him.

-This week's challenge was soooo complicated. We still don't know how it worked. There were sheep. And cards. And kids. Oh the kids. Running around and shouting and crying maybe and jumping on the sheep. It was a kind of beautiful chaos really...

-Taylor is a Bush supporter. Are we surprised?

-Seriously. Goody Laurel, Goody Sophia. Cut it out. The world is a cruel place. You can't go through it being nice.

-A fucking sandstorm. A motherfucking sandstorm. Can it get any worse?

-OH MY GOD THE WIND KNOCKED THE TOILETS OVER! This is so much worse than before.

-At Town Meeting, Taylor suffers through a public shaming that makes the VMAs look quaint. She deserves it too, royal bitch. She's a pro about it though. What do you do when the whole world turns on you? Apologize. Promise to do better. Move on. (Britney, you could learn something here.)

-Oh well look at that. Mallory got the gold star...

...but only because there weren't any wheel-chair-bound kids or cute puppies around.

Waiting For Tonight!

Much like J-Lo, I'm all giddy over my plans this evening. However, rather than a maggikal-millenial-forrest-rave, I'll be venturing to the Cat's Cradle in Chapel Hill to see MC CHRIS!

The man who brought us several memorable Aqua Teen Hunger Force charters such as MC Pee Pants and Sir Loin will be opening for Pinback tonight. Who is Pinback? Should I know? Good, because I don't care! I'm purely going to hear really fast rap tracks about fun stuff like trippin on Robotussin, Boba Fet, and white kids who love hip hop! (See the obligatory YouTube clip below to find out why for yourself...)


If you're in the area, at the show, Holla at the skinny boy in the red sweater.

Breakfast of CHAMPIONS!!!


DOUGHNUT HOS!!!!!!!!

Today I put on my best Dear Sweet Angel (D.S.A.) by forgoing the usual 2 doughnuts and a cup of coffee I savor in the AM and opting for the Krispy Kreme creation that defies both logic and sensibility........
The Doughnut Hole.

In celebration of my petite homage to Anna Nicole, I leave you with a clip from the groundbreaking reality series where D.S.A. taught us the TRUE POWER of the Hole!

Last Night's Heroes: E for EPIC

Yes, Ma Petrelli certainly stole the show, but there's much, much more to talk about. What excrement from Tim Kring's brain did we roll around in from 9:00 to 9:58 last night? Only the dilligent reader will know...


Points of Interest:
- Claire straight up cut her toe off with a pair of scissors.
-Maya's crazy Biblical Black Tears that will kill the devil.
-Alejandro's Hungry Eyes that eat the tears. (What crazy new mutant combos will they think of next?!)
-Hiro is on his wacky screwball hero-quest with the white guy.
-Peter Petrelli naked, bang-less (Did he have bangs last time? I though he had bangs...), and tied to a chair in Ireland. His interrogator, like a soccer mom at the Apple Store the day before Christmas screams, "WHERE ARE THE FUCKING IPODS!"
-No one even cared that Britney's babies got took.

BREAKING NEWS: RADIOHEAD CONTINUES TO MAKE "STRANGE" THE NEW "AWESOME"


While commuting to work this AM, I was fortunate enough to catch word via Idolator that my favorite emaciated cryptic Britt computer band RADIOHEAD shall be finally releasing their new album IN TEN FUCKING DAYS!!!!

'Tis nuts I know, but this way they have managed to avoid advance copies and the leaks that come with them (PURE genius really). AND when you order the digital version (available October 10, pre-order now here) you PAY WHAT YOU WANT!!!!

OK I'm trying to pre-order mine now (be warned the site is taking 4-FOOKING-EVER) so I'm gonna leave you with this Link to a painfully sad stick figure animation set to the classic "Bulletproof, I wish I Was." -enjoy!

The "Kids" are Burning Brighter Than EVER!!!!

Becase they are on FIRE!!!!!

Last Wednesday, HypePipe's dearest, sweetest, reality-based Double Dare Challenge instilled in us a new kind of joy.

We call it GLEE!

Ande here are our reasons:

+JARED!
+JARED!
+JARED!
+JARED!
+ JARED!
+JARED!

Now this episode was filled with CONFLICT, SACRIFICE, and A HUGE INFLATABLE BOUNCE-HOUSE SLIDE. But Jared continues to be the brightest star to shine on this miracle of a seemingly Dr. Phil sanctioned child-project.

Emilie was another notable standout. She, by far, was THE most affected tot when the kid who reminds us of the devil jumpstarted the chickin killin' dialogue.

She fought the idea, then agreed to it, then freaked out, was O.K., then got pissed all OVER again. Sounds to us like she's ready for own MTV series!

BUT SHE DIDN'T QUIT LIKE JIMMY (who we still love, but aren't inspired by anymore).

All in all, this second episode of Kid Nation was strong confirmation that, just as we hoped that they would, THE TWEENS ARE INHERITING THE EARTH (duhhh)!

Now, I proudly present to you........JARED!

-enjoy!

BREAKING NEWS: HypePipe is forced to learn about LOSS!

The HypePipe offices were hit with some rather devastating news this morning that we feel obligated to share with our sexy, well moisturized readership.

Our favorite non-smoking Banjee Gurl and HypePipe co-founder, Erica, will be taking an indefinitely long hiatus from contributing to the pipe. She is moving to Dubai to pursue several projects which include but are not limited to:
· Consulting on the design and construction of "The Cloud"
· Complete her master’s in interior design at the American University In Dubai

· Spreading her AMAZING PEACE all over the Emirates.
· Bringing Buttons to the impoverished children of the slaves that are made to build all the awesome stuff in Dubai
· AND MOST IMPORTANTLY: Helping Bubbles to develop a cure for Vitiligo!

As many of you may or may not know, this phenomenal woman not only co-conceived but carried this cake-eating blog on her back for the past several months. So it is only proper that she step away to re-center, replenish, and find herself within the ultra luxurious trappings of Dubai!

So feel free to overload our e-mail and flood the message boards with your love and devotion and perhaps, just perhaps, If we ALL behave ourselves and think positively enough we will see one of her impeccably impressive posts pop up from the ether of the internets later down the road.

In the meantime Erica, this is for you….

O-P-U-L-E-N-C-E!
Opulence IS YOU. YOU OWN EVERYTHING AND EVERYTHING IS YOURS!







And You Will Be Missed...
With tons of LOVE...
(Up your butt)!

Heroes Returns, HypePipe Ambivalent


So, last night was the Heroes premier and as befitting HypePipe's murcurial nature, we both loved and didn't care about it (we have no room in our hearts for hate). It was kind of boring, but an advancement of the story nonetheless.

Points of Interest:

-Nathan Petrelli's Beard. And the fact that he's not dead or sterile from all the radiation.
-Claire's Dad (His name is NOAH!?) working at Pop-Copy's new Costa Verde branch. Because we love paper, even though we never use it (because this is a blog).
-White people in 17th century Japan.
-"Mother, you're evil."
-George Takai's voice being 4 decibles too low to hear. Thank God for subtitles.
-The Eclipse again! What Does it Mean!?!?!?!
-Claire's new boyfriend can fly.
-Peter Petrelli chained up and naked in a shipping crate in Ireland that was supposed to be filled with i-Pod Nano's or something. Obviously.
-Those Irish people had THE WORST Irish accents we've ever heard.
-Nathan Petrelli's Beard.

Bollinger to Mahmmy: It's Over!

We here at the HypePipe International News Bureau Head Quarters in New York (pictured above) spent a good part of the day today, like you I'm sure, glued to the TV. Disc one of season two of Weeds came in the Netflix while we were waiting for our sexy interns to bring us lunch from Cosi. Let's just say I didn't get around to picking up my wife's dry cleaning tonight like she asked me to.


But nearly as importantly, when our breathless, ruddy-faced interns returned, they told us something that made us spit out our Sobe all over our varfs: Lee Bollinger totally broke up with Mahmoud Ahmadinejad! In public. And it was ugly.

Sources close to the story told our interns who told us that Lee had invited Mahmoud over for a little "get-together" at Columbia. Apparently, Mahmoud thought he was going to be speaking or something. Rumor has it they were all over each other in the Alumni House coat-room and our spys tell us they even chatted about how much they both looooove Hillary Clinton. And then, all of a sudden, in front of everyone, Lee just totally bitched Mahmoud out. I mean it was brutal.


Here see for yourself. Unfortunately, thanks to the YouTube Gestapo*, the only clip we could find was from FOX Noise. No worries though, they hate Ahmadinejad almost as much as they hate Columbia, so I'm pretty sure the footage is un-edited...




*Sorry Mahmmy, alleged Gestapo.

BREAKING NEWS: Britney's Mental Problems Not Helped by Drugs or Alcohol

Cake Tennis, Anyone?


To say that we love cake is kind of like saying that the Titanic was just a boat. To be blunt: we fUckiNg LOvE CAKE! We would take on Courtney Love herself for the title of "girl with the most cake." This clip combines our PSYCHOTIC love of cake with our passing interest in tennis. Given enough time, cake and booze, we probably would have got around to trying this ourselves. Don'chyou wish your wish your tennis had CAKE like this!?!!!?


And for the die-hard CAKE HEADS out there, we give you a whole SONG about "makin' a cake!" A C-A-K-E caaaake.

Oh China, You Are So Cute!



Aw, China you want to go to space. How cute!

Corporations usually don't apologize when they don't have to (loose ladies who get kicked off planes, I'm talking to you!) but Mattel is going to apologize to you, China. Because you're soooooo precious!

And China, you're so freakin' adorable, reality television can't help sneaking in a season's worth of snuggling on your futon. And just look at the Olympics- they can't wait to just hug you all over.

Oh, China- LET'S SPOON!

Live Blogging the Moment the Tweens Won



Ok, so this is not technically "live-blogging" since the Kid Nation premiere ended well before we could get the hypetop turned on and connected to the internet, but to say that the TWEENS now officially rule us all is entirely accurate. It's also probably the understatement of the millennium. It's a Hannah Montana world- we just live and buy tickets and blond wigs at exorbitant mark-up in it!

There are so many reasons why tonight's debut episode of televised child abuse ROCKED OUR FUCKING FACES OFF, but we only have so much Blogger-allocated room. So here goes. Top 14 reasons to watch Kid Nation.

1. The legal troubles. CBS lawyers, perhaps the smartest people in the world, chose New Mexico for Kid Nation filming. Why? Because of the seemingly advantageous legal status of the tumbleweed town they took over to shoot the show in. They shot the show during the school year, had no tutors, parents, or common sense on the set and managed to pass legal muster because they called it a "camp experience" instead of a "television job." You must watch Kid Nation if only to understand what the hell Matt Lauer will be talking about in a few months when the lawsuits kick into high gear.

2. Tears. Lots and lots of tears.

3. Sophia, the girl who dances on the street corner for tips. To buy a bike. Sophia is a front-runner favorite, and not just cause she won a $20,000 hunk of REAL GOLD on the first episode. She has the most potential of anyone in Kid Nation to start a zine.

4. Jared- we don't know what to say about him, except that he's awesome.

5. Taylor, the beauty queen who doesn't do dishes.

6. Is that pussy that I smell? Oh no, it's Jimmy.

7. It's a lot like South Park. Just kids being mean (and ocassionally cooperating!) with no adults around.

8. It's fun to guess which ones are gonna end up on drugs, in counseling, or at Guilford College.

9. Root beer. A root beer saloon is such a good idea. Those kids are all over it like it's Go-gurt, which is weird, because we don't think kids actually drink a whole lot of root beer in the real world. But they LOVE it in Bonanza City.

10. Not only do the tweens in Kid Nation get to play "Store" and "House," they get to play "Town." And "LIFE."

11. The host is slightly benevolent and seems to be the only calming presence. Those kids yell at each other about everything. The discussion of "TV versus Toilet" was the best duh-bate we've seen on television since Sanjaya's performances on American Idol tore Randy and Paula apart. (Taking a shit, or watching "That's So Raven?" It's like Sophie's choice!)

12. Michael the orator. When he speaks, which is often, everybody claps. With their hands.

13. At the very beginning, some boy fell out from leg cramp. This same boy later fell down during the oil rig challenge. More of this is sure to come! (See reason number one for the importance of injuries to the Kid Nation entertainment factor.)

14. Lastly, if any one of these teams had Coral, they would totally win every single challenge. Perhaps the Yellow Team could use her the most; adding her would raise their average age to a paltry 12. If the Yellow Team were any smaller or younger, they would be mice.

Well, America, the tweens have finally kicked our tired old asses. We couldn't be more in love with it. MORE KID NATION PLEASE!

The Next Piece of PETA Pussy

Alicia Silverstone is following in the illustrious foot steps of such classy dames as Naomi Campbell and Shirley Manson and posing nude for PETA!

God, why don't you and Larry Craig (and Naomi for that matter) go get married on Hypocrite Island or something...

What a Pop Performance is S'posed to Look Like


We watched our tape of the J.T. concert this weekend and were so relieved to see that not only is pop NOT DEAD, it is alive and AWESOME. We learn all of our dance moves from YouTube clips and didn't want to keep all these fresh new steps to ourselves. Watch this as many times as you can before the HBO police yank it off the internets. There's just enough precision dancing, discoball futuresex attitude, quality vocals, and flashes of production genius to make us forget all about this.

Ahh! That's better!

More Proof That the Music In-duh-stry Hates Us


As if this weren't proof enough, there is yet more evidence of the Music In-duh-stry's hatred for us. (Maybe they just think we're stupid?) It's called the ringle! That's right, ringle. "ringtone" + "single" = ringle The ringle is going to be a $7.00 CD available in-store only and will consist of three songs (song, remix of song, some other song) plus a ringtone. We imagine you won't be able to cram the ringtone into your phone by any physical means and ringle purchasers will probably be required to download some bullshit software and upload some other trifling mess to get the ringle to "ring."

Yes, we know. They hate us.

What did we do to deserve this kind of treatment? OK, so we burned some copies of some songs last year. And shoplifted Hilary Duff CD's and sold them in middle school parking lots. And pirated Taylor Hicks's album to finance our trip to the Czech Republic. But other than that, we've been pretty good supporters of the starving musician superstar.

Breaking News- Martha Stewart Wants to Get You Wasted!

Martha is joining a long list of celebrities who have decided that, yes, because they have shitloads of money, naturally, they should be making wine.

She's been too busy stomping grapes to contribute much in the way of quality content to her website. How else do you explain this?


A diarrhea costume for baby!


Or this:

Gobble gobble- who wants a drumstick?

Click here for more POINTLESSLY food-themed baby costumes. They will make you cry and laugh and have a seizure.

One of these days (i.e. when we get the SCRAM anklets removed) we'll do a celebrity wine tasting. Or, we'll just drink a bunch of Yeungling and fall asleep before the pizza arrives. No, but really, it'd be sweet if we actually tasted the wine that these celebrities have been pumping out and reported on it. But just in case we don't actually do it, here are our reviews anyway (based on our keen 6th sense of what celebrity wine probably tastes like).

Barry Manilow Pinot Grigio- Mandy's hair, Mandy's farts, notes of pine and ambrosia salad

Dan Aykroyd Chardonnay- oak, cat pee, Mountain Mist Febreze

Olivia Newton John Sauvignon Blanc- inside of roller skates from Xanadu

Vince Neil Merlot- chocolate, toast, burning tires, nuclear fallout, lip gloss, mitochondrial DNA

Muscle Relaxers, Y'all

We are kinda totally sort of completely (maybe) over the whole Britney at the Awards That Must Not Be Named thing. For a day or two we thought her performance was just a hallucination caused by all the Chinese yogurts from the dollar store we've been eating, then we didn't care, then we thought maybe the whole VMAs was a dream conceived in the sleeping mind of a child with cancer in an episode of Highway to Heaven. And then we went back to not caring again, but not before we figured out what made the whole thing possible in the first place.



PILLS!


Brit Brit looked so peaceful (like an angel!) as she sleep-danced her way through the middle school talent show that was the VMAs because, like a 1970s housewife, she got good and relaxed for the show with plenty of VALIUM!



Our guess is she ate a whole lot of muscle relaxers prior to the show, ordered special for the ocassion from her favorite Mexican pharmacy. Cousin and fame whore, Alli Sims, probably gave her the water to wash it down. (Enabler!) Seriously, at the very least someone needs to make sure she stays away from this guy:

Too Sexy for THIS PLANE

This chick's head has been all over my hotmail main page today, with the headline "Too sexy to fly?"




Nice try MSN, but I know when you are asking me rhetorical questions. Speaking of being judged too "loose" to fly, I bet the Pussycat Dolls haven't flown commercially in ages. They probably leave baby oil stains on the seats.



Seriously, have you seen their legs lately?

UPDATE: Another loose woman was booted off of commercial aircraft for not wearing enough clothes. Perhaps the airlines should provide bolts of fabric at the gate so that these barely dressed passengers could wrap themselves up in a couple extra yards of cotton and not miss their connections. I'm just sayin!

If Only We Were a Tad More Organized

If only we were a tad more organized, we're pretty sure we would be here tonight!


Peter Bjorn and John, responsible for making the latter half of this summer magickal, will be setting Cat's Cradle on fire this very evening. Their lively bass lines and energetic rhythms make us want to dance. They also make us want to dress better, watch public television and read more books. They're that kind of pop! This band, robbed for Best New Artist award at Sunday's VMAs like Ellen Burstyn at the 2000 Academy Awards, is worth planning ahead for. Next time, we'll be ready! (we think...) The shit is sold out for tonight, so we'll console ourselves in the knowledge that we couldn't get in even if we tried.
