Too bad you spent those college years eating Easy Mac, because apparently enough Ramen can get you laid. Twitter will no longer be confined to this galaxy alone, and judging by the contestants in this years Beard and Moustache championship, neither are hair follicles. Joan Rivers finally gets what’s owed, and Michelle Obama teaches Oscar a thing or too about manners. Get cultured on Monday, May 11th, 2009.
