Kirk Cameron's Gonzo Birthday Party!!!
Yeah, I know he's a right-wing fundie nut, but this actually made me a little sad:

1. I'd be more inclined to say Vince Mancini, who wrote the piece is a fucking asshole.

I know who Cameron is and I know what he's become, but for fuck's sake...maybe Subways sandwiches for lunch made him happy. Maybe they ordered Subways sandwiches because he likes them.

I look at some right-wing fundie whack jobs...Stephen Baldwin is the first to come to mind...and I see nothing there but a source of embarrassment, a stoner "celebrity" with nothing of substance to say, but he says it anyway.

Cameron's done his thing, and it's not everyone's cup of tea (mine included), but this was just a mean-spirited piece that wasn't half as funny as the author thought it was.

4. It wasn't the article, but rather the photo itself, that struck me.
The Ding-Dong-sized cake, the $5 Footlongs, the expressions on the coworkers' faces... It's a mundane image, yet at the same time almost overwhelmingly bleak. It's like a photograph the artist Charlie White would produce. Just replace Kirk with a "Joshua" puppet.

5. Ha ha. It DOES look like a Charlie White image.
What the hell ever happened to that guy? He was the Stephen King of visual artists. I loved his work, even if it usually gave me nightmares.

2. That is sad. The cake's even pathetic.

3. That's just stupid.
Looks like his co-workers gave him a little party at work. WTF is sad about that?
