Here’s one I saw on Twitter user @lokay’s feed. Looks like someone at the MBTA Transit Police was a little too fired up for the New England Patriots game, sending a public message rather than a Twitter direct message. Dude, use texting or personal email!
QVC recently threw a Barnes & Noble Nook up for sale on TV. The bad news is the page they displayed from The Girl With the Dragon Tattoo.

There was a runaway golf cart at the Dallas Cowboys stadium after a high school game on December, 17, 2011. Looks like some people got bowled over pretty hard.
I wonder what happened in this sports article written by Paul Newberry.
There’s nothing better when swears make their way onto live TV during football games. American regulatory agencies (FCC) shit bricks over words that the general public uses all the time – I wish the USA had a more liberal stance on swearing like the United Kingdom does. You can ask Howard Stern his opinion of the FCC.
Well, since today is Sunday and I have 3 more hours until the New England Patriots game airs, I found myself searching YouTube for Patriots videos, coming across a ton of swear videos. Consider this a round-up of the best football swears that made their way onto TV.
WBAL in Baltimore goofed on a segment about Black Friday, putting up a caption that omitted the word Friday. The caption’s Black Holiday Shoppers results are below:

Texas governor Rick Perry hopes to be US president in 2012, but finds that goal in jeopardy after he can’t recall the third agency of government he would eliminate if he gets there.
That was quick. Netflix backtracked on their plan to split their services into two companies. Netflix would have been a streaming company while Qwikster would be a DVD-mailing service. After a slew of customer complaints, CEO Reed Hastings said they would not be going this route after all. No one wants to pay more money across two services that should be tied in to one company. The DVD mailings and the online streaming is definitely Netflix’s differentiator. No other company does it.
Netflix has lost 1 million customers since the original Qwikster announcement. Tony Wible, an analyst with Janney Capital Markets says: “Basically, these guys are desperate, and this confirms it. While this move doesn’t solve the company’s long-term issues, in the interim, at least it can try to accelerate some positive catalysts for customers and its stock price.”
Billie Joe Armstrong, the singer of Green Day, was kicked off a Southwest flight on September 1 because his pants were sagging too low. A flight attendant repeatedly asked BJ to pull his pants up. According to a TV producer for ABC 7 in San Francisco who was on board, BJ apparently said things like:
“Don’t you have better things to do then worry about that?” and “I’m just trying to get to my f**king seat.”
I guess he has a point but dude, pull up your pants! You’re not 16. After he was booted, BJ sent out this tweet on his official Twitter account.
Who wouldn’t want to listen to A. Samuels put it down on his track “Livin De Life”? 55 year old rapping casino executives are in right now. I love the video intro with the awkward long point.
