TV BUZZ: After Comedy Central slashed the budget of The Sarah Silverman Program , the show's future looked bleak until MTV Networks' gay channel, Logo, agreed to co-finance the show. Finally, someone actually funny (although Buzzfeed readers don't necessarily agree ) might dethrone Kathy Griffin as the queen of gay comedy. …Maybe. …Okay, doubtful, but a boy can dream.

YES!!!@#! That was fast. This is obviously the falsest report since Dewey Defeats Truman, but it's a slow news day and I laughed.

CELEBRITY BUZZ: The R.E.M. frontman has been allegedly been dubbed “Twat Waffle” by Sara Barron, a former waitress at a trendy New York restaurant who claims - in her upcoming memoir People Are Unappealing - that he and his posse rang up a bill of $2000 and left no tip after dining for over five hours. Allegedly, he wouldn't talk to the waitress either, instead delegating one of his 19 hang-ons to make the demands. He may have lost his religion a long time ago, but the guy could use to learn some manners.

The rom-com about unlucky ladies and gentlemen in love (imagine that!) is looming on the horizon, and apparently the marginal characters - or “three gays and a Black guy” - prove to be almost as insulting as the fact that He's Just Not That Into You was made into a movie. To be fair, we should've seen coming in the trailer when Drew Barrymore's flock of geighz insist that “MySpace is the new booty call.” Ugh, nobody says that, gay or straight.

Homosexual geneticists at the Pink Tiger Research Institute believe they have isolated the gene that causes Christianity. This will be very comforting to concerned parents of Christians who fear they may have somehow caused their children to choose this deviant lifestyle. (P.S. Merry Christmas!)

POLITICS BUZZ: A “youth-oriented” offshoot of Protect Marriage aims to persuade voters to choose Proposition 8 in California, which would amend the state constitution’s allowance of gay marriage. Kids these days! It’s all kooky facial hair, dramatic staring, and ivory-colored computer machines. Can’t they concentrate on important things once in a while - like keeping people who love each other apart?

TV BUZZ: HBO is hoping to do with British import Little Britain what it did with New Zealand’s Flight of the Conchords : make the weird, niche-y smash in its native homeland a stateside success. You know a character-driven sketch show is on HBO when it includes two ‘roid-happy, totally-not-gay gym buddies with eensy weensy pencil d*cks.

CELEBRITY BUZZ: Radar calls them Hollywood’s newest accessory. We weren’t sure at first if gaybie referred to Clay Aiken or his (alleged) offspring, but Aiken, along with Ricky Martin, is at the forefront of the gaybie movement. Do men only make the gaybies when they’re gaysted ?

TECH BUZZ: Out Magazine asks if the gay men’s hookup site - which reportedly rakes in $30 million yearly - has destroyed gay culture. It would be interesting to hear what John McCain had to say about the situation, considering that he gladly accepted the maximum amount for an individual donation from the “liberal Republican” owner of Manhunt.

CULTURE BUZZ: According to a new piece in the trend-hungry New York Observer , reactionary young gay men are intentionally adopting traits of their flaboyant forefathers. Trading indie rock and seedy dives for torch songs and piano bars, these fellas are making “old gay” new again. Not to get all “cultural theorist” here, but is it really possible to now reposition the same things that historically isolated men as now being semi-ironic? So what if a gay guy likes Stephen Sondheim and Stephen Malkmus? Ugh, I need a boyfriend. Can someone write a trend piece about that ?

A parody of the creepiest scene from No Country for Old Men where Javier Bardem is overdubbed by a very fey gay male voice. I enjoyed this clip infinitely more than the whole of the movie.
