Single -> In a Relationship -> It’s complicated -> Single

It was just a couple weeks ago that Bristol Palin and Levi Johnston announced their engagement publicly in US Magazine. Now, Bristol has gone off running to People Magazine to say that they have broken up. Something tells me that she’s spilling her news to the press before telling her friends and family.

There are too many laughable items on this cover.

a) The picture. Lawls.

b) “I Hope My Mom Will Accept Us.” Really?

c) How’s that acting career Bristol?

It’s on. It’s off. I don’t want to see another cover of them on it in two weeks with “I’m Pregnant…Again!” splashed across. It’s the real life version of “The girl who cried attention.” My friends have told me in the past that you don’t typically announce your relationship status unless you know it’s for sure. No one wants their short-lived romance spread across news feeds.

…or do they?

Now, Crêpan Crepe World, a Japanese-style crepe restaurant is moving in.

How did this go down in court?

“It doesn’t matter she was grabbed. She’s just a mouse,” argued the prosecutor. “It’s not just a mouse. It’s a person … It’s not OK to go to the diner and pinch a waitress’ butt anymore, and it’s not OK to go to a theme park and pinch a character’s butt.”
