If you’re not from the DC area, you’re probably not familiar with Georgetown Cupcakes. For the last couple of years, this tiny cupcake shop has taken the city by storm. Everyday, there’s a line that forms around the block for these cupcakes. From open til close, the line never ends. It’s worse than the line for the "Its a Small World After All" ride at Disneyworld. Seriously?! Cupcakes?! I’ve had Georgetown Cupcakes plenty of times. Don’t get me wrong, they are delicious little treats so I do understand the hype. I get it. Everytime I had a chocolate ganache cupcake, I’d thoroughly enjoy it – probably because I’ve never had to wait in line for it. I’d always eat some other sucker’s cupcakes after he or she waited forever in the sucky line.

Then it happened. Last week, I got in the Georgetown Cupcakes line for the first time. See picture above. Bonus points if you can spot me. Or Waldo. And his scroll. This is no joke. All these people waited in line in 100 degree weather just to eat these cupcakes. After 10 minutes of waiting, I wanted to drown myself in the Potomac river. All these people are crazy. Holy crap. It took a lot of blood, sweat, and tears just to purchase 6 tiny cupcakes. I’m never doing that again. I’d much rather go to 7-Eleven and get those orange flavored Hostess cupcakes. No waiting, no suffering, and yet its still tasty. Anyone who waits hours in the middle of a hot ass summer day just for cupcakes is insane. I’d rather spend the night on the haunted Georgetown steps than wait in that line again. Georgetown Cupcakes has become so popular that TLC recently started a reality series called "DC Cupcakes" which follows the two owners (who are sisters and who are now stinkin’ rich) as they run the daily operations of the shop. I saw an episode last week. I’ve never been so bored in my life. Why are all the DC-based reality shows so crappy and boring? The Real World: DC, Top Chef: DC, The Real Housewives of DC, DC Cupcakes…all these shows suck hard. Ever since TLC lost Jon and Kate, they’ve been grasping for a new hit show. They need to keep trying. Anyways, I can’t believe I just wrote an entire blog post about cupcakes. I’m now going to watch 5 straight hours of the NFL Network to redeem myself. Yay, can’t wait to watch a repeat of the "Top 10 Mobile QB’s of All-time." btw, how in the world is Fran Tarkenton #1 and Mike Vick is #4? I guess its because Mike Vick murdered dogs. Happy Friday.

Koreans are ridiculous! Funny, the most comments we get on our blogs and podcasts are for posts dealing with Korea-bashing. Is Super Junior (a.k.a. Super Gays) still around? Are they still apologizing for being gay? “Sorry, sorry, sorry, sorry, naked, naked, naked, boys.” This paragraph deserves some hate-comments, don’t you think?

Side note: It’s understandable that all the sports-related blogs on our site get no love from the ladies. You see a picture of a brother in a jersey and you’re immediately on to the next one, on to the next one (that Jay-Z music video gives me the heeby-jeebies). We get no comments because let’s face it… guys don’t like to comment on anything online and girls are hating the sports talk. Well, what else are we supposed to do? It’s called the J and D (Jon and Danny) Show. It’s FUBU- for us, by us. If you have suggestions of what you want us to talk about, throw us a frickin bone. Comment or email what you want and we will work with you.

OK, now that we got that out ‘da way… back to the topic of Korea. I love the Korean language. I really do – but only because I can talk about other races in their presence, “O mo na! Indo saram naemsaena.” What does that mean? Can’t tell you. One thing however, that I don’t quite enjoy is the complexity of the Korean language. You have different ways of saying things to elders (jon-den-mal) and then to lowly peasants (Jon-Danny-mal). It is Danny’s birthday today so he turns 17… so for all you college students and older, you would say happy birthday as such: “Saeng-il chook-ha hae, Danny dear priend!” but for all you elementary school cats, you need to respect your elder by saying, “Saeng-sheen chook-ha- dur-eeb-nee-da, Danny oppa/hyung/nuna/unni.” Mad confusing.

We here at J and D Show.com are instituting a new policy. Sad that it had to come to this but it must be done, chingoos. Show some freakin’ love by spreading the word on the show (via re-tweets, facebook comments, sandwich boards on the interstate, etc.) and comment on our podcast posts. We will decline to do new episodes until we get five… five… five comment foot longs! So from now on, 5 unique comments on podcast posts will prompt Danny and Jon to get together to record epic podcasts. We lost some momentum with that 3 month vacation but lets get this thing swingin’ again. Ahnyung/Anyung-ga-sae-yo! Wish Danny a Happy Birthday for me, will ya?

And Spain wins the World Cup!!! GOAAAAALLLLLLLLLL!!!!… mehhhhhhhhhh! Well, one good thing is that we got soccer out of the way for another four years. We attempted to have some people attend our podcast recording this week, unfortunately the only thing they contributed to Episode 26 was obnoxious background noise, but it’s OK… it was my (jon’s) bad because I didn’t do a very good job of editing them out. We attempted to do a top 3 hotties (female celebs) but we need your help because we don’t know the latest and greatest in that category. Comment with your suggestions otherwise Kristen Stewart is the hottest celeb in the world.

This picture is funny. Teehee!

What did Will Smith say when he was at a Korean restaurant? “I’m gettin’ jji-gae wit it”… LOL. nah. Will Smith sung a gem of a hit for us many years ago, “Welcome to Miami”. The Fresh Prince in South Beach “bringin’ heat” was a foreshadowing of new royalty that would be coming to town. Our great nemesis, Mr. LeBron James, announced to the world last night in an hour long ESPN special that he would team up with Chris Bosh and Dwayne Wade and play for the Miami Heat. You all know my disdain for the self-proclaimed “King” but who can blame him for leaving Cleveland. Miami = good weather, no state income tax, and Gloria Estefan. Cleveland… well let’s just say that Cleveland has no redeeming qualities except “Major League” movies and the ‘Wild Thing’, Rick Vaughn. People are all up in arms this morning that LeBron would just up and leave Cleveland but no one is more upset than team owner, Dan Gilbert. In an angry letter Gilbert sent to fans he wrote that he would “…personally guarantee that the Cleveland Cavaliers will win an NBA Championship before the self-titled former ‘King’ wins one… you can take it to the bank.” That, my friends, is what you call unsaavy investing. ZIPPY CHANCE the Cavs get a championship before LeBron does! But if you investors want to ship your coin to the Bank of Antawn-Jamison-is now-your-best-player, then go right ahead.

I still root against LeBron with all my heart, mind, and soul… but I totally understand his choice. More wise words from the Fresh Prince: “It’s late in the day and I aint been on the court yet, hustle to the mall to get me a short set, yeah I got on sneaks but I need a new pair, ’cause basketball courts in the summer got girls there.” UHH it’s like ALWAYS summer in Miami so that means there are girls there all the time! Case closed. LeBron’s going to Miami!

My predictions for the top NBA free agents:
LeBron James – Seattle Supersonics. He’s always wanted to play with Detlef Schrempf and Kendall Gill. Btw, Detlef Schrempf’s cameo in "Parks & Recreation" was the most random thing ever.
Chris Bosh – Montreal Expos. Although he doesnt want to be a Raptor, he loves Canada too much to leave. 
Dwayne Wade - Houston Oilers. He wants to become Warren Moon’s new #1 option for the Run n’ Shoot offense. Haywood Jeffries is bitter.
Joe Johnson - OB Bears, Samsung Lions, or 2PM. At the last second, he will turn down Atlanta’s max contract offer to go to Korea and possibly replace Jaebum as group leader. But he will still suck in the playoffs.

Summer movie reviews:
"Shrek: The Final Chapter" – didn’t see it. But I saw Shrek the Musical on broadway with my parents last year. They didn’t get it. "Ogres are like onions?"
"The Twilight Saga: Eclipse" – didn’t see it. I’m afraid I will like it. And by "it", I mean Jacob’s hot body.
"Toy Story 3" – saw it. Cute. But I wanted Lots O’ Huggin Bear to win in the end. He looks so soft and cuddly. Woody is a dick.
"The Karate Kid" – didn’t see it. Johnny Lawrence is not in it. Won’t see it. Also, highly unlikely there’s a Chinese translation for "sweep the leg."
"Grown Ups" – didn’t see it but I believe I saw it back in 1993 – it was called "Saturday Night Live." I think Kevin James was supposed to be Chris Farely. He died. Also, if Rob Schneider doesnt say "Yeww can dewww it!" in a movie, then I won’t see it.
"Knight and Day" – didn’t see it. There’s something about Mary: her skin is melting off her face. She’s starting to look like Pennywise the clown. (fyi – if you don’t know Pennywise the clown, do not Google Image him. He gave me nightmares until I saw him in "Home Alone 2: Lost in New York" and realized he was a funny guy.)
"The Last Airbender" – yeah right. 9% fresh rating on Rotten Tomatoes. I’d rather see "Percy Jackson and the Olympians: The Lightning Thief." What a movie title. It’s almost as good as "Devine Secrets of the Ya-Ya Sisterhood."

Best shows on TV that nobody is watching:
Basically, anything on Cinemax between 11 PM and 3 AM. You know, shows like "The Devil Wears Nada", "The Erotic Traveler", "Bikini Pirates", etc.
Oh, and "Friday Night Lights" on NBC.

Things guys shouldn’t do on Facebook:
Use emoticons and exclamation points when writing on someone’s wall. "Hey there buddy~! Miss ya!   -__-   See ya soon!!  =)"
and that’s pretty much it.

Happy 4th of July. Be careful when playing with fireworks. You’ll get burned.
