The cast for the Twin Peaks revival has to be seen to be believed.

It doesn't sound like you're "A Little Gay," James Franco.

"It’s problematic how you currently discuss your own sexuality. It’s blatant bi-erasure, and promoting a duality of sexual orientation. Instead of being bi, you’re gay when it comes to one specific sexual or romantic attraction, but straight when it comes to another.

I've said it before, but I don't know which of these guys is luckier, but Scott's junk may just tip the scales. (h/t Fred)

At #10 is "Friday" by Rebecca Black.

So after five years and 93 million views, it's time to reassess "Friday." Is it really as bad as we remember, and does it still deserve scorn?

Yes.
