Ah, no wonder Ben Pomeroy of Bon Apetit, had to pretend anyone gives a shit about Nick Kroll's Breakfast

On October 22nd 2013, A Ben Pomeroy got this published in Bon Appetit Magazine. http://www.bonappetit.com/columns/my-morning-routine/article/nick-kroll-breakfast  I was sort of amazed that such an article could ever come to pass... I think most anyone would be baffled. Let's get real, only Nick Kroll's mother, Lynn, cares about what her disturbed son, eats for breakfast. Today, on twitter,the mystery was solved.   See below the article, for evidence of   no mention of  Nick Kroll's prior relationship with this Ben Pomeroy.   http://www.bonappetit.com/columns/my-morning-routine/article/nick-kroll-breakfast OCTOBER 22, 2013 /  WRITTEN BY  BEN POMEROY   PHOTOGRAPHED BY  MANDEE JOHNSON If  Nick Kroll  is recognized on the street these days, it’s likely because of his much-beloved Ruxin, a sardonic fantasy football hustler on the ensemble comedy  The League , now entering its fifth seas...

When Kroll the fixers fixed the ratings for Nick Kroll

Kroll Show Ratings ISSUES have arisen What were the ratings for the Kroll Show?  Can there be a good explanation as to why Deadline, Hollywood Reporter, A.V Club, Entertainment Weekly, The Wrap and Zap 2 it, so far, have stated that the Kroll show was renewed because it averaged 1.1 million viewers? Is in normal for them to not mention the numbers when it came to demographics? Well, I don't know about these things. Or, I know very little. But, I do know about demographics and desired demographics. That's pretty much layman stuff.  And, I do know that Kroll is a liar of the dirtiest kind, and that he is capable of murdering (or being the proximate cause of murder(RIP LAPD officer Jacqueline Montalvo), perjury, railroading of innocent people into Patton or Prison etc. I also know comedy and humor. And, though there is this old saw about things like comedy or beauty being subjective -- I feel extremely confident that his show is a testament to going far on m...

Damn Damn Tig Notaro's cancer scam

Updated: The Tig Notaro cancer scam gets crazier and crazier, as our insane heroine, begins stripping to show mastectomy scars. The reason I give one damn about this frigging "Tig."  http://alisablogq.blogspot.com/2017/07/dismissed-in-interests-of-justice.html November 22nd 2015- Update. First, here's the first part of the story, and should give any curious person an idea of why I have a  BEEF  with "Tig" Notaro and Nick Kroll et al. http://henypire.blogspot.com/2015/11/nick-kroll-tig-notarolavely-and-singer.html What has this, "Tig" been up to: In order to disprove the allegations that Tig Notaro's whole cancer set was a fake set up, Notaro is now flashing herself to frightened audiences. Yes, reader, she is going topless so as to show her mastectomy scars. She admits this was a publicity stunt but it hardly seems a wise move... comedy and flashing scars just don't mix. Way too bad performance arty. But it did shut down those w...

Is Stephan Glass Masquerading as Stef Willen, nowadays?

Did Stephen Glass have a sex change? Is he back in the writing business with the Nom De Plume of Stef Willen? HMMM  Add caption Stephen Glass in 1998 Steph Willen in 2016 - https://www.mcsweeneys.net/articles/column-19-im-here I spent two years, working on a popular reality show. I made my way up from a lowly Production Assistant to an Associate Producer, but I quit the day Deb from clearance started decorating the office window with Halloween decals a month in advance. It wasn’t the fact she was covering up our only natural light source with pumpkins that felt so suffocating, it was the sudden realization that there was no light at this job for me. I didn’t want to become a producer. Let us flash back to 10 columns before: https://www.mcsweeneys.net/articles/column-9-the-balloon-bottom-epoch Five years earlier, I was working on a popular reality show. Before the holiday break, the executive producer pulled me into his office and said to call him in Jan...
