Elayne Boosler

I think you were born gayer than a sweet-smelling jockstrap * and I must have looked ravishing in my prom dress are two things that you would usually reserve to say to a convicted child-molesting bus driver in private, right? Not so, according to a Wisconsin judge who fashions himself a very forward-thinking, potty-mouthed version of Judge Judy. Weirder yet, he speaks graphically about the defendant s d**k when referring to the homophobia of yesteryear, the kind of societal shunning that might cause an ashamed, closeted gay guy to allegedly go after kids which, for the record, is not how that works, because exclusively linking pedophilia with gay men is unfounded and archaic. Nevertheless, it is his courtroom, and if he s going to trot out the best one-liners this side of an Elayne Boosler HBO special, we can t stop him. *How does he know? [via Videogum] - Eliot Glazer

BWE s own Dan Hopper did not love the series finale to Entourage. I, personally, did not watch it because the last thing I watched on HBO was Elayne Boosler: Live Nude Girls in 1989 (JK JK JK Arli$$ 4 LYFE). To be completely honest, I m not really into Entourage, but it seems that many fans (and h8rs ) have a volatile relationship with the show. So to quell the nerves of the people who also weren t satisfied with the way things turned out, comedian Joe Mande provides us with an unseen alternative take. How this ended up on the cutting room floor, we ll never know. [via Joe Mande]
