I was perusing Twitter stumbled across this.

If you need help in breaking down that video, that's rapper Travis Scott with a roller coaster on-stage. Cool right?

Wrong!

Unless you think plagiarism is cool!

I present to you the one and only Tommy Lee on HIS roller coaster.
Yup. Mr. Lee was the originator of onstage roller coasters and I'll be damned if he doesn't get credit for this.

I can leave with some level of injustice but this I can;t tolerate look at this statement from Travis Scott's people:

Please tell me who came up with AND executed this idea then. I don;t want someone saying that they drew a picture of a roller coaster on a stage and want credit the way that hack Da Vinci used to.

I intend to keep my finger on the pulse of what is likely to become the biggest copyright lawsuit of the century and will keep you updated right here.

I'm Matt Reigle, covering the important stories.

Can Sidney Crosby Please Stop Making It So Difficult For Me to Hate Him?

As I'm sure many people know, I'm a die-hard Philadelphia Flyers fan, and with that comes an ingrained hatred of the the Flyers' cross-state rivals, the Pittsburgh Penguins. As far as Flyers fans are concerned, Penguin public enemy number one is their crappy mustache growing leader, Sidney Crosby. He has always been pretty easy to hate. He has scored countless big goals in his career, including this one in the 2010 Olympics in which he tore out the collective hearts of every person in the United States and stomped on them with his Reeboks. But lately, there have been many examples of Sid being a good guy, like this one from yesterday's all-star game, and frankly, I don't like it. Me realizing Sidney Crosby is a nice guy is not unlike hearing that Hannibal Lecter volunteers at the local animal shelter on weekends when he's not eating census takers. Sure he's a cold blooded (Flyer) killer, but damn it, it if he isn't a quality human being who s

Sex-Toy "Scandal" Sparks "Outrage": And Other Words I Like To Put In Quotes

  Lebanon Daily News: A Northern Lebanon school board member resigned from the board Tuesday in protest of a recent sex toy scandal involving three principals in the school district. (Click here for the full article.) Ah… Lebanon County never disappoints. The broad strokes of this story are as follows: three principals at Northern Lebanon High School were caught passing around a sex toy as a joke. Is this a good look for three people that are supposed to be overseeing the molding of young minds? Nope. Is this hilarious? Abso-goddamn-lutely. Go back to your high school days for a second. If you’re a method actor, maybe rub an empty pizza box on your face to get that acne firing on all cylinders again. Now, think back to your high school principals, who at this point in your life are the physical embodiment of “The Man” and the antithesis of everything your rebellious teenage mind stands for. Now imagine them flinging dildos at each other as a goof. No matte

The Celebrity Fast-Food Meals Are Becoming A Scourge... Unless They Want To Give Me One

What do J. Balvin, Travis Scott, and Korean pop sensations BTS have in common (aside from me not having any clue who they were before typing their names just now)? All of them have been bestowed the high honor of a McDonald's signature meal. Forget being knighted by the Queen;  this is a real honor, and you don't have to let some geriatric monarch hold a sword inches from your jugular to get it. McDonald's seems to have started a trend and now Burger King, the fast-food equivalent of the kid who always copies your homework, has started offering their own celebrity meals . While these meals are meant to be nothing but a harmless publicity stunt, I submit for your approval that they reveal an underlying truth about the public at large: that fast-food corporations (correctly) think we're all total morons. Let's first take a look at McD's J. Balvin meal. What the hell is a J. Balvin? I'm not sure either so let's learn together. Per Wikipedia:  José Álvaro Os
