Steven Tyler Drops The F-Bomb On Good Morning America The Today Show!

Well, this is ONE way to not only follow in Tom Hanks' footsteps…but ONE-UP him in the process!
The actor caused some slight controversy when he accidentally dropped the F bomb on Good Morning America while promoting Cloud Atlas earlier in the month, but that is NOTHING compared to Steven Tyler's behavior this morning on The [...]

"He Said He Wants To WHAT Me?": Woot Weads The Wire

Every week in this space, we’ll take a look at the news and offer our own incisive blend of commentary, analysis, and poop jokes. The news you need, from a voice you can trust, in the 90 seconds you have to spare: that’s Woot Weads the Wire.

MILAN, Italy (UPI) -- Fiat's top executive, Sergio Marchionne, Tuesday sketched out his vision for overhauling the Italian automaker to position it for the future.

Step one: hire someone other than Tony to handle all the repairs.

NEW YORK (UPI) -- U.S. recording star CeeLo Green is teaming up with The Muppets for a holiday special called "CeeLo's Magic Moment," TV Guide Network said.

Most of the characters are already on board, but insiders say the anthropomorphic letter U is demanding full script approval before agreeing to appear.

LAS VEGAS (UPI) -- Officials in Las Vegas said a city street will be temporarily renamed in honor of rock band Guns N' Roses while they are performing at a hotel.

The street starts with plenty of room, then, in the middle of town, it suddenly takes a left turn, goes through the desert for 300 miles, and terminates in an unpaved dead end just before a cliff.

BURBANK, Calif.(UPI) -- Walt Disney Co. has agreed to acquire Lucasfilm and the U.S. entertainment giant said it will release a new live-action "Star Wars" movie.

Fans are already dreading the possibility of a new story all about a youthful princess with daddy issues fighting against cartoonish bad guys while her handsome prince and his magical talking animal defend… oh, Good Lord, they're not going to change anything, are they?

From The Desk Of The Office Manager: Morale Eels

Employees,

It's no secret that morale in the office has been flagging. According to recent "anonymous" employee reports, many of you feel "unmotivated" by the current system in which excellence is punished. Seems people expect their VALUE to be RECOGNIZED with some sort of POSITIVE FEEDBACK.

Instead of doing that, the office has decided to install several MORALE EELS. These eels will nip you whenever you feel unmotivated or beset. Want to avoid a nipping? It ain't rocket science, folks: JUST BE MOTIVATED.



Please note that the morale eels are SUPPOSED TO LIVE IN A MARINE HABITAT, and will therefore perish if not properly cared for. HR will be sending an email around detailing eel care responsibility, but suffice it to say that KEEPING THE EELS ALIVE IS GOING TO TAKE TEAMWORK. If you see an eel in the kitchen that looks desiccated, MIST IT WITH ONE OF THE MANY SALT-WATER-FILLED MISTING BOTTLES. Don't count on other people to mist the eels, people.

Folks, I shouldn't have to tell you that EELS WILL NIP YOU IF THEY ARE DRYING OUT. Therefore, if an eel nips you, it is either (a) in danger of perishing or (b) snapping you out of your workplace-inspired melancholia. DON'T ASSUME EITHER. Mist that nipping eel and get back to work.

Be aware that these eels are extremely expensive, and SHALL NOT BE PHYSICALLY REPRIMANDED FOR MISBEHAVIOR UNDER PENALTY OF IMMEDIATE TERMINATION. Since you are all half-wits, let me rephrase: If you strike an eel, you will be fired.

To confirm that you have read and understood this email, send me a sixth-grade-style report on eels.

- Bye -

Katherine Tull-Potts, BA

Pioneer 7.1CH 3D Ready A/V Receiver

Appliance of Easy Virtue

Some receivers save themselves for that special signal source. This Pioneer will have any AV source that stumbles into its ports.

Smartphones, tablets, PCs, Bluetooth devices, iPods - even the Internet. The Pioneer VSX-1022-K doesn't care where video or audio has been, or what filthy conditions it make have picked up along the way. It's ready to play in 1080p, all the time, and it doesn't ask any questions about anybody's past. It's even 3D ready - if you are.What gets you going, sailor? Ethernet? USB? AirPlay? Get after it, big boy. The Pioneer VSX-1022-K is always ready, totally willing, and very able. The things it can do with those 6 HDMI ports alone would get it arrested in Tijuana.

And the flexibility, jumping jiminy, the flexibility. 7 channels of amplification and 9 channels of speaker connection for your audio to have its way with. Maybe you're into a front-height setup, or a split between 7.1 for video and two dedicated music speakers, or maybe just a vanilla 7.1 surround with back speakers. The Pioneer VSX-1022-K is always ready to service those with, let's say, specialized tastes.

Of course, this all comes at a price. But for you? You're cute. Tell you what, the Pioneer VSX-1022-K will cut you a deal this time. What do you say, stranger? Ready to have a little fun?

MyTown 2 Getaways: When app updates go bad


Around a year ago, iOS developer Booyah released MyTown 2, an update to the original MyTown that allows players to build a town of their dreams using real world businesses to earn virtual money. Now, Booyah has released MyTown 2 Getaways, a brand new app that will carry over your original progress, but with some interesting additions and reductions when compared to the first game.

MyTown 2 initially sounds worth the update, as you can bring over your progress from your first town, but can now build in two additional locations: a beach and lakefront. Players can also complete a variety of new collections for exclusive rewards not available in the store, and they can build water-themed content.

Unfortunately, MyTown 2 Getaways comes with the same major problem faced by so many other Booyah games: it constantly crashes. This is especially concerning, as the app has already been updated with "improved performance" just this week, which apparently did nothing other than clear up some formerly blurry graphics. While social features are still available, and you can still visit your friends, there's also the chance that you might lose some of your money in the transition into this new game. In my own personal experience, for instance, I left MyTown 2 with around 50,000 coins, and started MyTown 2 Getaways with 16,000, indicating some sort of bug in the transition process.

Ultimately, MyTown 2 Getaways is another example of a game that has the best of intentions, but probably shouldn't be downloaded until it's updated a few more times.

Click here to check out MyTown 2 Getaways on iTunes >

Badvertising: Does Samsung Really Want You to Make a Sex Tape?

There are people whose livelihoods depend on crafting advertising that speaks to you, the average college-educated white male aged 18-35. So when it goes awry we like to present it here, in a little column called Badvertising, so we can all laugh and say, "No seriously. WTF?"


The ad:
A yuppie-ish bearded dad says goodbye to his family before heading off on a business trip. His adorable daughters joyfully exclaim that they made him a video, which they transfer to his phone via the "amazing" sync technology. As he hops in his cab, his loving wife leans in to mention that she made a video of her own for him to enjoy. Then, because Samsung isn't sure you got that reference as they beat you over the head with it, she adds, "Probably shouldn't watch it on the plane."

This ad is shot in that generic Instagram-looking fuzzy filter that all tech commercials use nowadays, and it's generic enough that I think most people glaze over it and don't hear that part at the end where the ad suggests how great this would be for sharing pornographic videos with loved ones. I first saw it over the weekend and three people I asked had to watch it again to pay enough attention to hear the wife's dialogue. Then all three responded with the exact same phrase:

"What. The. F---?"

Setting aside the dubious usefulness of "sharing playlists" or whatever (I can already see that's a feature you'll use maybe once, after you finally track down someone with the same phone, just to see it work and say you've done it before forgetting all about it), is this really what advertising has come to? I realize I might sound sort of like the elderly grandfather complaining about Elvis's gyrating hips, but come on. I get it: sexting is ubiquitous; do we really need to revel in it? And I say this as someone who fully supports your right to ruin your aspirations for political office and gainful employment via sending pictures of your naked body via SMS. As long as everyone's of age and consenting, I say go for it. Although given all the attention given to cell phone companies storing your data secretly and people being located and harassed by internet vigilantes thanks to the EXIF data in their phone pictures, I can't say I'd take the chance.

But as far as advertising a phone, stick to the cute photos of families and frolicking children. Everyone already knows whether or not they're going to use the 800MegaPixel camera for something filthy and indecent; we don't need advice from a gigantic Korean corporation about it. Who does this ad speak to? Sexually repressed young parents on business trips? That's a pretty niche market. I wouldn't be surprised if a lot of hormonal teenagers are asking for Samsung Galaxy phones this Christmas, but I guess that's kind of the point.

Bubble Safari Halloween Spooktacular: Everything you need to know

Just in time for Halloween, bubble shooters everywhere can now participate in a Halloween Spooktacular event in Bubble Safari. This event sees players collecting candy, building pumpkins and completing missions to earn sweepstakes entries for a grand prize that anyone would love. We're here with a look at this event, so let's get started!

First things first, players can now collect pieces of candy by simply playing Bubble Safari. Bubbles will contain candy at the top of the screen, and when they're dropped, you'll have a chance for the candy to drop into the three barrels at the bottom of the screen. If it does, it will go towards your supply of candy back at the main menu, earning you one of three rewards at different candy milestones.

200 Pieces of Candy - 100 coins
400 Pieces of Candy - 200 coins
600 Pieces of Candy - 300 coins

On top of that, you can now work on completing Flaming Pumpkins, which can be built through quests. The first time you click on the build now button above, for instance, you'll be taken to a quest asking you to get three Seeds and three Wands. Both of these items can be earned with friends' help, as you'll need to post a general request on your wall for the Seeds and send out some individual requests for the Wands.

While you're waiting for those items to arrive, you can continue to work on earning rewards and sweepstakes entries through a series of Halloween Spooktacular missions. The first mission, as an example, simply asks you to complete Level 18 with at least one star. Since most players are far past this point anyway, you'll instantly earn prizes like bubbles, coins, bombs and other power-ups. If you can complete this entire series of 12 missions within the next five days (as this event is unfortunately timed), you'll win the grand prize which contains 50 entries into the game's Halloween sweepstakes, a Permanent Level Peek, 10 Safari Cash, 1,000 coins, three Boost Bubbles and 15 energy.

Remember, completing missions and Flaming Pumpkins in this event will see you earning sweepstakes tickets, with the overall sweepstakes expiring in six days. For each ticket you earn, you'll have a chance to win one of three prizes: 1,000 players will earn 100 Safari Cash, while 100 players will win a permanent Extended Aim ability on their accounts. The grand prize for the sweepstakes is 10,000 Safari Cash, which should be enough to keep you in bubble-popping bliss for quite some time. Remember though, you can't win these prizes if you don't play the game, so make sure to play as often as you can throughout the next week to increase your chances of winning. Good luck!

George Foreman Indoor/Outdoor Grill

Note The "Indoor" Part

I don't care about the cold, drizzly autumn weather! We're barbecuing on the patio to celebrate Home.Woot's first anniversary, and that's final!

It's not every day that our home-goods site turns a year old. In fact, it's only one day, ever. So we're not going to let a little rain and a little chill and a little gusting wind keep us from partying down.

And this George Foreman Grill makes it easy, so no whining. Look, we were able to cook a whole chicken just right thanks to the precision temperature controls. Now hand me that platter, these burgers are done. As soon as the nonstick surface cools down, we can clean it with just a few simple wipes.

So what if we had to stand out here in a slashing, icy downpour to get it done? After all the great deals Home.Woot has given us over the past 12 months, catching a cold seems like a small price to pay. I'm just glad we had this George Foreman Indoor/Outdo-

Wait. Indoor/Outdoor? So we could have done all this inside? Damn.

Papa Bert's World Famous Sippin' Seat

Do the Monster Slapdash

Hide it underneath yourself to go as, "The Guy That Was So Thirsty That He Was Forced To Drink His Own Butt."

Kludge (klooj, n.): a clumsy, inelegant, improvised solution to an engineering problem. Kludge-O-Ween (klooj-oh-ween, n.): a makeshift, half-assed solution to Halloween. When it's too late to worry about finding the perfect costume, it's time to realize that ANYTHING can be a costume.

George Foreman Indoor/Outdoor Grill

Note The "Indoor" Part

I don't care about the cold, drizzly autumn weather! We're barbecuing on the patio to celebrate Home.Woot's first anniversary, and that's final!

It's not every day that our home-goods site turns a year old. In fact, it's only one day, ever. So we're not going to let a little rain and a little chill and a little gusting wind keep us from partying down.

And this George Foreman Grill makes it easy, so no whining. Look, we were able to cook a whole chicken just right thanks to the precision temperature controls. Now hand me that platter, these burgers are done. As soon as the nonstick surface cools down, we can clean it with just a few simple wipes.

CityVille UFO Landing: Everything you need to know


If you're familiar with the Whale Rescue feature in CityVille that asks you to expand out into the water surrounding your town in order to rescue lost baby whales, you'll feel right at home with the newest event in the game: the UFO Landing. This event sees you building a UFO Landing site and then expanding your city (not water) to reach four aliens that have been scattered around your land. This feature is available to players that have reached at least Level 15 in their cities, and we're here with a complete guide to finishing it off, thanks to Zynga. Let's get started!

Seeking Lifeforms
  • Repair Alien Family's UFO to Level 2
  • Find Papa Alien
  • Get 12 Alien UV Goggles

The Alien UV Goggles are earned by asking your friends to send them to you, but since your requests are limitedeach day, make sure you ask for these items early and often until you have all 12. To repair the UFO Landing site, you'll need to collect a variety of building parts, starting with 12 Cockpit Controls. Throughout this event, you'll need to ask your friends for items or can earn them by tending UFO Landing themed buildings that are available in the store. These buildings are items like a Deep Space Communications Community Building or the Rocket Dealership Business, both of which are available for coins. Finally, to find Papa Alien, you can click on the "Show Me" button which will take you to the expansion that you need to reach that contains that particular alien. Once you can interact with him, simply move him next to the UFO to finish this task and goal. You'll receive two Zoning Permits and 50,000 coins for finishing this goal.

Launchpad
  • Collect from 10 UFO Themed Buildings
  • Find Mama and Baby Alien
  • Repair Alien Family's UFO to Level 4

Luckily, two of these tasks can be completed at the same time, as you'll need to collect from buildings for the first goal task, but can also earn collectibles from those buildings, so you should be collecting from them anyway. The process to finding and moving both Mama and Baby Alien is the same, so expand your city until you reach them and then pull them back to the UFO to continue. You'll receive 200 XP and four Zoning Permits when you finish this goal.

New World
  • Get 20 Sparkling Space Rock
  • Completely Repair Alien Family's UFO
  • Find Alien Dog

There are seven items you need to collect in all for the Alien Family UFO, so while you're working on collecting those materials from friends or themed buildings, you can also work on expanding out to the UFO Dog. You'll need to move it back to the UFO as well to finish the family, and will receive six Zoning Permits and 500,000 coins for completing this final goal. Good luck!

FarmVille Haunted Hollow Chapter 6 Goals: Everything you need to know

While farmers are now being encouraged to beat Haunted Hollow in FarmVille to unlock a free shipping license, this doesn't mean that we're ready to say goodbye to the Halloween-themed land just yet. In fact, a new chapter in the game's storyline of goals has now been released, taking us into Chapter 6. We're here with a complete guide on finishing the six goals in this series, thanks to Zynga. Let's get started!

Scaring Stiff
  • Get 6 Medusa Muds
  • Harvest 100 Green Toadstools
  • Make Crystal Cocktail 3 Times

For this "Medusa Muds" task and every other task that asks you to "get" a specific number of some item, you'll need to ask your friends to send those to you via either individual requests sent directly to neighbors or general news posts on your wall. As for the Crystal Cocktails, these are made in the Haunted Hollow Potion Shop using two Spectre Berry, two Jack-O-Lantern and three Grape bushels each. Each of those take six hours to craft, while the Green Toadstools take 12 hours to grow. You'll receive 150 XP, a Stone Willow Tree and 3,000 coins for finishing this first goal.

Howler Housing
  • Get 8 Lycansbane Leaves
  • Harvest 124 Spectre Berries
  • Make Cauldron Stew 3 Times

This Cauldron Stew recipe is also made in the Potion Shop, only here you'll need Sage, Tombstone and Tomato bushels to create one. Spectre Berries take a full day to grow, so make sure you plant those just as soon as you're done with the Green Toadstools in the goal above, even if you've yet to pass the first goal. That way, when you reach this second goal, you won't have to wait so long for them to finishing growing. Completing this second goal gives you 200 XP, a Werewolf Hut and 3,500 coins.

Praise the Sun!
  • Get 8 Sun Smoothies
  • Harvest 150 Sage
  • Make Fire Brew 2 Times

Yet again, you're dealing with a long-term crop here, as Sage takes a full day to grow. Plan ahead appropriately though, and you won't have to actually wait a full day to progress once you reach this goal. If you're still waiting for these crops to grow, you can spend some time crafting Fire Brews, which are created in a three-star Potion Shop (remember to keep upgrading your Potion Shop by continuing to craft items, even if they're not required for goals). A single Fire Brew takes two Spectre Berry, one Sage and two Jalapeno bushels to craft. You'll earn 250 XP, a Solar Eclipse Tree and 4,000 coins when you complete this goal.

Moonlight Delight
  • Get 8 Moonlight candles
  • Harvest 20 Wormwood
  • Improve Haunted Mansion to Stage 5

Wormwood takes two full days to grow, so this might be the time to bust out any sort of Instagrow potion that you may have in your inventory. If not, try plowing 20 new squares in the corner of your Haunted Hollow farm and plant these even from the very beginning of this goal series so that they're fully harvested and waiting for you when you get to this goal. As for the Haunted Mansion, you'll need to upgrade it using items like Cobwebs and Old Fences, which are earned through a combination of general news posts and individual requests sent to friends. Complete this goal to receive 300 XP, a Forest Warg animal and 4,500 coins.

Splice Thrice
  • Get 9 Splice Creams
  • Harvest 225 Sage
  • Make Lucky Charm 3 Times

Again, Sage takes a full day to grow, so plant this as soon as you get close to reaching this goal to save time. Meanwhile, the Lucky Charms are another recipe that's only available in a Level 3 or higher Potion Shop, with a single Lucky Charm requiring three Tombstone, two Green Toadstool and one Lavender bushel to craft. Remember, you can claim bushels from your friends once per day, so stock up ahead of time to pass these sorts of goals more quickly. When you finish this goal, you'll receive 350 XP, a Banapple Tree and 5,000 coins.

One Sneeze Away
  • Get 10 Polymorph Pollens
  • Harvest 250 Zombies
  • Make Werewolf's Bane 2 Times

This final goal requires the most amount of crops yet, but luckily, the crop in question, Zombies, only takes 12 hours to grow, unlike some others in this series that required two full days. Also remember that you can ask your full supply of FarmVille neighbors to send you items once everyday, so you should (in theory) have no problem racking up the 10 Polymorph Pollens. When you complete this final goal, you'll receive 400 XP, a Fuzzy Dragon animal and 5,500 coins.

Remember, you're limited to completing these goals over just the next week, so make sure that you're constantly working on these goals before they expire, taking their rewards with them. Good luck finishing them all!

Freeware Game Pick: Nuign Specter (Jake Clover)

Pioneer Trail Curse of the Mummy: Everything you need to know


A mysterious package has shown up on your Homestead in Pioneer Trail, and from the looks of things, this package is a massive sarcophagus containing, what else, a mummy! This delivery comes by way of a new goal series called Curse of the Mummy, and we're here with a guide to complete these goals, thanks to Zynga. You'll need to be at least level 20 to access these goals, so if you've already made it that far, you're ready to get started!

Mummy Dearest
  • Place the Sarcophagus
  • Clear 15 Debris
  • Tend 20 Adult Pigs

The debris can be anything from Cacti to Grass, so we'd suggest tending something that you have a ton of on your land so that you don't eliminate something you might need later. For completing this first goal, you'll receive 150 XP, five Ancient Lilies and a Frankenscarecrow. The Ancient Lily is a crop that can be found on the game's free gifts page, and it takes seven hours to harvest.

Mummy Dearest #2
  • Harvest 20 Ancient Lilies
  • Uncurse 5 Mummy Pigs
  • Finish Phase 1 of the Sarcophagus

Again, the Ancient Lilies are found on the game's free gifts page, so make sure to continually check your Gift Box to see if your friends have sent you any since you last checked. As for the Mummy Pigs, you'll find these at random when tending debris, just as you would find an injured critter under other circumstances. Similarly, you'll need to use Uncurse items to actually uncurse these mummy animals, with these items being earned by asking your friends to send them to you. Even after you finish this goal, you'll need more Uncurse items in the future, so make sure to ask for more whenever you get the chance. As for the Sarcophagus, the different "building" phases require you to collect even more items by bugging friends, and you'll even need to craft items like Essence Presses using Essence Jars (ask friends) and Tomato Presses (rarely drops when tending tomatoes). When you complete this goal, you'll receive 250 XP, two Mummy Trees and a Monster Topiary.

Monster Madness
  • Harvest 16 Mummy Trees
  • Uncurse 5 Mummy Sheep
  • Finish Phase 2 of the Sarcophagus

The Mummy Trees are another free gift, and the Mummy Sheep can also be found by tending debris. That makes this goal fairly straightforward, even if it is also time-consuming. For this part of the Sarcophagus, you'll need to collect even more items from friends and craft items like Silver Handcuffs. These Handcuffs require Sterling Chains (ask friends) and Ox Nose Rings (tend oxen), while other ingredients can be found by feeding adult goats or tending Mummy Trees. If you're ever confused about how to earn an item, remember to use the "hint" button next to each for a tip. Complete this goal and you'll receive a Vampire Potion, a Werewolf Potion and a Tough Hand Tonic.

Repair the Sarcophagus
  • Chop Oak Trees 25 Times
  • Find 2 Mummy Collection Items
  • Finish Phase 3 of the Sarcophagus

This third phase of the Sarcophagus requires you to ask your friends for Colorful Gems and Liquid Gold, but the rest will be mostly up to you. You'll need to tend Uncursed Mummy Sheep and Adult Pigs for other ingredients, while also crafting Sparkling Pigments and Sarcophaglue. The Sparkling Pigments are created using Crushed Cherries (tend Cherry Trees), Lapis Lazuli (ask friends), and Dead Sea Salts (ask friends). Meanwhile, a single Sarcophaglue requires four Bonding Agents (ask friends) and four Sticky Juice (tend Pink Roses) to create, so you'll need to make sure to plant some roses and ask your friends for the appropriate materials along the way to not fall behind. When you complete this goal, you'll receive 750 XP, Mummy Trees and a Dragon Goose.

One Yummy Looking Mummy
  • Harvest 40 Mummy Trees
  • Harvest 30 Ancient Lilies
  • Finish the Sarcophagus

This final stage of this Sarcophagus building project sees you collecting items like Khol Mascara and Moaning Boxes directly from requests sent to friends (so start pestering them early), along with tending Uncursed Mummy Pigs and harvesting Beets for some other items. As you might expect, there are also more crafting projects to complete here, as you'll need to craft Mummy Accessories using Pearfume (tend Pear Trees), Spray Bottles (ask friends) and Royal Circlets (ask friends). You'll also need to craft some Mummy Outfits by combining Gold Pins (ask friends), Linen Skirts (ask friends) and Wool Gauze. Adult Sheep will drop Wool Gauze at random, so even if you're not ready for this particular crafting project, make sure you have a ton of Adult Sheep ready to tend on your Homestead. When you complete this final goal, you'll receive 1,000 XP, two Aged Salmon and a Frankenfruit Tree.

On top of all of these goals, there's also a "wrapper" goal of sorts that can be worked on the entire time you're also completing this linear series.

Return to Sender
  • Send the Mummy Back
  • Uncurse 8 Mummy Pigs
  • Uncurse 8 Mummy Sheep

Again, both the Mummy Pigs and Mummy Sheep can be found by tending debris on your Homestead. In order to actually send the Mummy Back, you'll need to complete all of the goals before this, including completing the construction on the Sarcophagus. As all of these tasks are likely going to be very time-consuming, just make sure that you exhaust all of your daily allowed friend requests so that your neighbors can help you as much as they're allowed. Good luck completing this feature before Halloween!
