Dear All the People Who Signed Up For Oprah’s “No Phone Zone” Pledge, I Don’t Believe You.
Dear All People Who Signed Up For Oprah’s “No Phone Zone” Pledge,
I don’t believe you.
Signed,
IBBB
Over 120,000 people have taken Oprah’s “No Phone Zone” pledge where they’re either claiming they will not text while driving, or will not text while driving, but may use handsfree calling if they need to use the phone, or will not text while driving, but will pull over if they need to use the phone. Look, I get it. Oprah has a point. It’s not that smart to text while driving, but it’s a bit easier for the person to create this “pledge” when they are typically driven around in a chauffeured automobile.
Also, why isn’t it ok to text if you are sitting in traffic or at a complete stop at a stop light? Ok, maybe the “sitting in traffic” part is a little overboard, but still. I expect to get some nastygrams over this blog post, but I just wanted to call “B.S” on most of the people who signed this pledge. They just want to anonymously impress Oprah and do whatever she says. And “yes” I’m talking to you Julia Roooooobbbbbberrrrts! And “yes” I’m talking to you John Traaaaaavvvvvolta! Fine I just wanted to toss in my Oprah impression. That is all.

Oprah to End Show in September 2011: Quitters Never Prosper.
Lower the flags to half staff and bring in the dog. Blessed Mother Oprah Winfrey, it is rumored/confirmed, has decided to end her show after 25 years in September 2011. Now most of you have probably never heard of her show before. It’s called “Oprah.” It’s a talk show. I believe it’s watched by people in The United States and/or of the Americas, Canada, and parts of New Mexico.
Tim Bennett, President of Oprah’s “Harpo” production company has made this horrible announcement and states that Oprah may discuss this more on Friday’s live show. Ugh, if there even is a Friday anymore.
What I want to know is, what is Oprah going to do for money? I mean, it’s likely that unemployment will still be on the rise in Sept 2011 and I worry for her finances. I mean, she’s been a talk show host for 25 years. That doesn’t exactly qualify you work at Dairy Queen or a Coconut Records or anything.
As the old saying goes, “Quitters Never Prosper” and I agree with this statement. Oprah will, more than likely, never prosper and just fade into the sunset. I now envision her, Gayle, and Stedman living in a broken down shack in the middle of the woods in Utah, where they will probably kidnap some kids and hold them their as sex slaves and the like. Poor Oprah. Poor America. Poor New Mexico.

Dear Oprah, I Would Have Been Totally Fine if You Stopped After the Whitney Houston Interview. Really.

Hey Oprah, how are you? You’re right, I apologize. I’ll try it again. Hello Blessed Mother Oprah of the Winfrey’s, how are you? Look, I get it. I really do. Your ratings are down a bit. Judge Judy has been mopping the floor with your bummity-bum, probably thanks to me and my dad who love a little Judy. I must be honest. I was pumped when I heard Whitney Houston was going to be on your show because I was secretly praying for some more crazy crack talk. I even tuned into to see your Flash Mob (giggity) on your season premiere. However comma backslash, you wanna know what I don’t want to hear? I actually don’t want to hear Julie from One Day at a Time telling us that she played “Diddles For Sale” with her dad, who I can only assume was Schneider.
Look, I get that Mackenzie Phillips is selling her new book like a hooker in heat on Wall Street during a recession, but that little story that she’s telling to the world, well, that’s the type of story you add to your Will, place in a glass bottle, and toss into the ocean moments before you die. You don’t exactly go on Oprah and tell this while you’re still alive and kicking. You don’t want to know about the skid marks in my underwear and I don’t want to know about your sexual escapades with Schneider.

This Time Last Year: I Was Actually Excited For Oprah’s New Show. Gulp.

It’s time for your favorite “lazy Friday” segment, “This Time Last Year.” Basically, I post what I was blogging about this time last year. Catchy title. Anyway, I was red with secondhand embarressment when I read how pumped I appeared in anticipation of Oprah’s new reality show. What a let down. Anyway, here’s what I was discussing about Oprah….this time last year.

Wait, Is Oprah the New President?
Ugh I hate writing anything on this blog that’s political because I pretty much don’t take anything seriously. Then I saw Oprah. So I figured it was acceptable. In my best Oprah impression…..ahem…..ahem……”Meet your new President, Barack Obaaaaaaaaammmmmmmmmmmmmmaaaaa!”25
Oprah Talks All Crazy While on Diet
“Day 21…yes I want some wine. Bordeaux 82. Just one glass at sunset, almost broke down and had a glass. I didn’t, mostly because of my commitment to fellow VCTers. Tomorrow Scarlet…tomorrow is another day. That’s my mantra for now. This has been exactly what we intended: enlightening. I will forever be a more cautious and conscious eater. That’s my commitment for now. To stay awakened. “
Yowza. That’s almost word for word what the drunken homeless dude I walk by on my way to work said to me this morning. What in the holy hell is Oprah talking about? Why do I feel that all of a sudden at the Oprah compound she is reenacting that Bugs Bunny episode when those two guys are shipwrecked and keep looking at each other like they’re a pork chop and hot dog? And you know Gayle is the hot dog. You just know it.
Oh well, hopefully Oprah sticks to her detox plan and goes completely insane. At least her show will be watchable then.

Oprah’s Going to Detoooooooox!
Oprah is going to be blogging (aka her staff will be logging into Oprah’s blog pretending to be Oprah) to let people know all the ups and downs of her diet. Blessed Mother Oprah of the Winfrey’s has said, “This 21-day cleanse gives me a chance to think about [eating] differently and see what my attachments are to certain kinds of foods – and what I’m willing to do to change. Don’t know if I’m going to feel better or worse, but I’m willing to try to see if my body at least feels differently.”
She still has a little time to get into bathing suit shape for John Travollllllllttttta!

Everybody Gets Reruns Onllllly!!
ABC came out with their latest and greatest Fall lineup and they decided to give the axe to Oprah’s reality show, “Oprah’s Big Ass.” There are conflicting reports though as a rep for Oprah said, “Oprah felt like she got her message out there. It was not something she wanted to renew.” I have a message for Oprah. “I think we’re getting puuuuuuuunk’d!”
Here’s why it didn’t do too well in the ratings. People love crazy. Oprah is crazy. When Oprah isn’t on her own reality show it isn’t fun to watch. Ever notice how much America’s Next Top Model sucks when Tyra is hardly in it? I tuned in specifically to get embarrassed by what Oprah says and to specifically hear her say “John Travooooooooolta!” Other than that…it kinda sucked.

This Time Last Year: Oprah’s School

Happy Friday and welcome back to everyones favorite lazy segment called “This Time Last Year.” This Time Last Year will take a brief look at what was going on in the celebrity world…this time last year (go figure). Oh, and also I’m lazy so this is pretty easy to do on a Friday. Here’s what was going on with Oprah, her school, her cameltoe and IBBB this time last year…
As Oprah opened the school to a packed audience teachers and students chanted, “Long Live Oprah, long live!” No joke, they actually said that. The skies then opened and God raised up Oprah, pushed aside Jesus and allowed Oprah to sit “at the right hand of the Father.” God then hi-fived Oprah and she taught God how to “z-snap” just like Tyra Banks. Heaven must be a real hoot. I’ll fill you in on what hell is like…eventually.
Seriously, as much as I want to joke, this really is a great thing that Oprah has done. She’s a great example of what someone with money can do and not be afraid to do. She literally is making a difference in so many peoples lives. I mean, not mine, but whatever. However, just because Oprah is doing these “good deeds” does NOT mean that she can escape my “IBBB Cameltoe Rating System….to the Stars!”
Nice try Oprah, but you’ve been captured with “the camel” all the way over in South Africa. Seriously, this must be the richest cameltoe alive. Am I a bit jealous? Sure. I give this 3 out of 5 camels. Oprah really made this one her own.
As a side note, is it ironic that in the picture of Oprah with her hands up consists of dark black storm clouds over the children, yet bright and sunny skies directly over Oprah? I don’t think so. I told you she has some type of deal with God!
As a second side note, a friend was text messaging me while I was writing up this story and when this friend asked me what I was doing I replied, “just adding camels to Oprah’s cameltoe.” Seriously, who says that? Nobody. I guarantee that sentence has never been said before. Ever.

Oprah’s Big Give!!!!!!!
-
Oprah’s new reality show started up last night. I’m pretty sure this is a big trick and this will really be Oprah’s Favorite Things episode, but I’ll watch anyway.
-
In typical Tyra Banks fashion, Oprah calls the contestants personally. If Oprah called me I would definitely ask her if Gayle was in bed next to her. I’d then, for sure, be asked to no longer be on the show.
-
Some of the contestants react like the normal audience members at the Oprah show…well the women do. The guys are just like, “cool, thanks Oprah.
-
It’s been 5 full minutes. Why hasn’t Oprah given out a car yet? I’m bored.
-
It’s been 6 minutes and Oprah already started yelling and is even showing about 3 centimeters of cleavage or “Oprage” as I like to call it.
-
7 minutes in and Oprah yells, “you’re very fiiiiiirst challllennnnnngggge!” I’m officially watching the entire season.
-
Teams are formed and the challenges are ready to begin. The first teams stops off at this ladies house. She doesn’t know who they are, but she (and her two little daughters) let in the strangers. Note to self, bring a camera crew and just start burglarizing people. Oh, and say you’re with the Oprah show too. Clearly everyone buys that.
-
Ok IBBB readers, we have an issue. These stories are kind of sad…horrific even. I don’t think that even I can make fun of them. Crap. I’ll have to just stick to Oprah. I hope she pops up soon!
-
Ok there’s the car. I assumed Oprah would find a way to toss one in. Where has Oprah been though? I miss her.
-
Why are the judges yelling at the fashion show team? It’s like, “You’re helping people and raising money, but I don’t like fashion shows so why did you do it?!” Can you really do charity wrong?
-
Isn’t Jamie Oliver a chef? Why is he a judge? I thought Oprah once said only God could judge us. Why didn’t she get God?
-
Nate Berkus and Ryan Seacrest are the same person right?
-
Kimberly gets the boot this week. Thanks Kimberly, you can stop helping people now.

Everybody Gets a TV Netwooooork! Nope. Actually, Just Oprah.

Oprah’s Dad to Sass Oprah’s Ass
Oprah told the New York Daily News that she laughed when her assistant told her the newspaper was calling to ask about the book that Oprah’s dad was writing. Later, Oprah called her dad and found out it was true, but he said he had meant to tell her about it. Ooops. That’s the second rule of never sassing Oprah’s ass. Don’t lie to Oprah. Ever. Vernon’s book is supposed to be called, “Things Unspoken.”
I wonder if Oprah will add it to her book club? I hope she does, but only because I have made myself a deal that I would never read anything that was on Oprah’s book club list, ever. Well, unless, of course, it was a book about me. Ohhhh, someone should totally start writing a book about me. I’ll start getting in touch with Oprah. Thanks for the help IBBB readers!
