Good Morning And Here’s A Jarring Entertainment Headline

From the Huffington Post entertainment section:

Jesus. If there was ever a time to bury the lede…   “So, no one told you life was gonna be this way.” – Proverb about reading David Schwimmer / rape headlines early in the morning.

Now let’s give this a little context.

David Schwimmer may be known as lovable goofball Ross on “Friends,” yet he has gone back to his dramatic roots for his latest directing project on the searing rape story “Trust.”

Jesus again!  Searing rape stories are the WORST!  Friends don’t let friend get involved in searing rape stories.  And by that, I mean blah blah blah television, mumble, comment about Chandler and Joey.  Uch.  I can’t even construct a Friends joke because am so disturbed by the idea of the SEARING RAPE STORY DIRECTED BY DAVID SCHWIMMER.

Wait, no.  Sorry, actually I have another Friends quote joke. “Could this rape story BE any more searing?” -Chandler Bing reviewing this movie.  Let’s read a little more from the article?  Sure.

[Schwimmer's] role as perpetually lovesick Ross on “Friends” made him a star and his best-known big-screen role is providing the voice of the nervous giraffe in the “Madagascar” animated movies…

Movie Executive #1: Hey remember the Friends guy who did the voice for that nervous giraffe?

Movie Executive #2:  Oh yea, Ross!

Movie Executive #1: Yeah!  We should get him to direct our SEARING RAPE STORY!

So, that was a real conversation that happened.  But let’s all pretend none of this is happening, okay?  Thank you.  Thank you and good morning.
