Fighting the Good Fight: China Bans Time Travel

Chinese Government censors , always one step ahead of their American counterparts, have issued new guidelines that essentially ban television programs that feature time travel as a plot device. Why can’t the U.S. do this? There’s no plot worse or more over-used than time travel.

This action was supposedly taken to prevent shows, like the popular drama Palace, from sending characters back in time and idealizing China before the Communist takeover. We just think the Chinese have had enough of Dr. Who.

WATCH: Manhattan Bus Vs. Child’s Big Wheel

We here at GDE are frequenters (and former residents) of the great city of New York. As any sane New Yorker knows, you don’t take the bus anywhere. Not because it’s packed with tourists, but simply because the busses are unbearably slow. One man decided to see what would win; a NYC Bus or a child’s big wheel in today’s video. Find out.

Glenn Beck Is Quitting His Fox News Show

Jesus’ very own gift to humanity, Glenn Beck, will be quitting his Fox News show later this year à la Sarah Palin, according to a cryptic and downright confusing post on his website, The Blaze (the website appears to be down right now, but the Google cache is still up).

Since Glenn’s mind is God’s very own cryptex, the release makes no sense to mere mortals like you and I;

Fox News and Mercury Radio Arts, Glenn Beck’s production company, are proud to announce that they will work together to develop and produce a variety of television projects for air on the Fox News Channel as well as content for other platforms including Fox News’ digital properties. Glenn intends to transition off of his daily program, the third highest rated in all of cable news, later this year.

What? Can someone please print this out, make a charcoal rubbing on the steps of the Lincoln Memorial and hold it in front of the Washington Monument at sunrise so that the first glimmers of God’s almighty light reveal the true meaning? I guess taking it at face value it means that Beck is committing to produce shows and digital projects for Fox News, and hiring away Fox executive Joel Cheatwood to help him do it and serve as his “liaison” to Fox, and these shows and digital projects are so important that Beck won’t have time to do the apocalyptic television show that Fox hired him to do in the first place.

Donald Trump Succeeds in Making Glenn Beck ‘Uncomfortable’

You know you’ve crossed the crazy line if Glenn Beck says you’re “making him uncomfortable” with rants about bombing China and wondering if Barack Obama is a secret Muslim with no birth certificate. That’s exactly what the Trump has done, after his epic interview with Bill O’Riley earlier in the week. See for yourself, courtesy of “The Birther Report”.

Charlie Sheen’s Dog Starves To Death

Yesterday, Charlie Sheen tweeted that ex-wife Denise Richards is a dog thief: “We must bombard with Warlock Napalm, that traitor and loser whore #DUH-neese POOR-ARD. A VILE KIDNAPPER AND NOW DOG THIEF. HATE.” But Denise says Charlie is a dog abuser: Apparently after hearing a rumor that Charlie was neglecting the pugs they shared during their marriage, Denise removed them from Charlie’s custody.

One pug immediately keeled over and died from malnutrition. The other pug is recuperating, and Denise refuses to give it back. The dogs were Denise’s before their relationship, which means they are (at least 9 years old), but Charliekept them after the divorce “so the kids could play with them when they visited.” Between threatening to kill one ex, and giving a dead dog to another ex, maybe Charlie can revive his career with a live-action version of Fear.

Donald Trump Is Pretending to Be A Birther Now

While he’s still a couple months away from his self-imposed deadline of sweeps week to make a presidential campaign announcement, he’s apparently full-on the crazy train. This week, he’s pretending to be a birther!

He just completely makes up this reason not to believe Barack Obama is from the United States:

“Let me tell you, I’m a really smart guy. I was a really good student at the best school in the country. The reason I have a little doubt, just a little, is because he grew up and nobody knew him,” Trump said in the interview that aired Thursday.

“If I got the nomination, if I decide to run, you may go back and interview people from my kindergarten. They’ll remember me. Nobody comes forward. Nobody knows who he is until later in his life. It’s very strange,” the Celebrity Apprentice host added. “The whole thing is very strange.”

They interview people from Obama’s kindergarten all the time. Here’s his teacher. Here’s a classmate. Where are Donald Trump’s kindergarten or elementary school classmates, hmm? He says they’ll remember him.

Argentina’s Dancing With The Stars Is Pretty Much Soft Porn

Dancing With The Stars Argentina NSFW from GDE TV on Vimeo.

On Bailando por un Sueño, the Argentinian equivalent of Dancing with the Stars, stripping the dancer, baring her breasts, licking them, and finger her nether regions are apparently not against the rules. All we can say is “I can haz show?”

This video is definitely NSFW, so, if you have a little time because you’re still snowed in from SNOWPOCALIPSE 2010, go ahead and give this a watch. You’ll be happy you did.
