Kirk Cameron wrote some book and is promoting it on The View. I like Kirk and don’t care at all that he believes in intelligent design. Who the crap cares? This is America. If you want to believe that the Muppets created the universe, be my guest.

I can’t wait for August!!! I’ve never seen Audrina angry. I’ll be googling Lo and Audrina to see if Lo says something rude about her. It’s so sad. I like both of them very much. Lo is super funny. Audrina is nice and reserved, generally. In the clip above, she actually gets angry at Lo.

I couldn’t stop thinking of this today. I don’t really know why, other than it’s hilarious.

Tobias to Michael: First of all, we’re doing this for her because neither of us wants to get divorced. Second-of-ly, I know you’re the big marriage expert. (Sarcastically) Oh! I’m sorry, I forgot, your wife is dead.
