Mid-Week WTF's

1. Guys who fall off the face of the earth and then randomly call/text you months later--WTF! The worst part is that said guys act so nonchalant as if we (girls/women) will miraculously have amnesia to the fact that they neglected to attempt to get in touch with us for such a long period of time! I've said it time and time again--they always come back--and it's true; yet, it never seizes to amaze me when guys pull a stunt like this. Ladies: If you choose to give the poor fool a second chance (and I'm not against the idea), make sure you torture the hell out of him first! :)

Speaking of the stupidity that is the male species...

2. Joe Torre's book about the Yankees--WTF? In the book, he calls Alex Rodriguez--one of the best baseball players ever (albeit a cocky, ass of a man that has choked for the Yanks in pressure situations)--"A-Fraud." Joe, seriously, what are you, like 12? Now he's saying that it's an inside joke but even if that's true, what happened to the motto, 'what goes on in the clubhouse, stays in the clubhouse.' I should thank Joe for supporting my notion that professional athletes are men who don't want to grow up!

3. Catfight alert: Hillary Duff vs...Faye Dunaway--WTF?! So, apparently, a Bonnie & Clyde remake is in the works for 2010 and Duff is set to play Bonnie. This role originally belonged to Dunaway and she was none too pleased to hear who her successor would be. Dunaway's response to the news was something along the lines of "I thought they'd at least get a real actress." Hillary, of course, is pissed by this comment (and rightfully so...I mean, I can only imagine the level of acting skill needed to play Lizzie McGuire). Not quite sure I can see Hil as the bad girl bank robber but what do I know. After all, her retort, "I might be mad if I looked like that now too," is so bad-ass that Dunaway must be shakin' in her nylons!

4. Woman gives birth to octuplets after already having six children--WTF! Her mother thinks that she's obsessed with having babies because she was an only child. Now, I can understand wanting to have more than one child because only children are weird (sorry to any of you reading this who are one but, seriously, case in point)...but fourteen children! How is she going to afford that? And let's not forget that kids don't just take care of themselves (Angie and Brad probably have a whole army just to help them take care of their worldly bunch). Did this woman wake up one morning and think: let me compensate for my lonely childhood by having tons of kids that will, no doubt, have a crappy life because I can't support them? And what doctor in their right mind would fertilize a single, already-mother-of-six that doesn't even have a job?!?! SERENITY NOW!!!

I'd like to end this segment with an anti-wtf--my all-time favorite NY Ranger, Adam Graves, was honored last night at MSG with the retirement of his jersey, #9. Oh how I've missed this bloodied, toothless face...
