Our WeNDOH Media teammate is a 1998 graduate of Lex Luthor University, where he majored in Mad Science with a minor in evil Business Administration. He has since been a nonstop disappointment to his mother by failing to put that education to work, and instead taken up residence as editor of DailyFiasco.com. Although he still maintains a hobbyist’s interest in devising a chemical formula that when slipped into their respective water supplies will bring both Metropolis and Gotham City to their knees, he spends most of his time curating Fiasco, which he describes as “Las Vegas’ drinkingest, fightingest and handsomest nightlife, entertainment and gossip blog.”

Cirque premieres tend to bring out even people who aren’t disturbingly flexible. Though we can’t say for sure that’s true of Aaron Paul, we kind of don’t ever want to find out if Jesse Pinkman can stick his legs behind his head or anything.
