Short of Dog with a Blog from Dog with a Blog and the cat from Inside Llewyn Davis, I can’t think of a better duo to host an award show, or be my best friends, than Amy Poehler and Tina Fey. In case their Golden Globes monologue didn’t convince you, here’s this: last year, Taylor Swift fans shrieked in angry unison when Fey DARED to throw shade at their idol. While doing a drunken bit with Poehler about Swift’s tendency to take a dump (and drive to the studio to record a song about her ex-boyfriend), Fey warned, “You know what, Taylor Swift? You stay away from Michael J Fox’s son.” To quote You’reNotSorry13, “Tina, why you gotta be so mean and a liar, and pathetic?”
Swift later commented on the burn, telling Vanity Fair, “You know, Katie Couric is one of my favorite people…because she said to me she had heard a quote that she loved that said, ‘There’s a special place in hell for women who don’t help other women.'” If those words sounds familiar, that’s because during last night’s Globes, after Poehler won for Best Actress in a TV Series, Comedy, Fey commented, “I just want to say congratulations again to my friend Amy Poehler, I love you and there’s a special place in hell for you.” Unleash the glittery hounds.
And because “petition or it didn’t happen” is the new “pics and it didn’t happen”:
At least they didn’t go for the easy Mean Girls joke?

No but seriously, can we have another plague?
We need another Vietnam to thin out their ranks a little.
Holy Christ, I just realized that’s what Bart says. I’ve seen that bit a million times and thought it was “We need another Vietnam. Then, “out there” ranked a little”. Which in retrospect is duuuuuuumb.
We could get a new Renaissance as a bonus!
anyone who puts a celebrity’s name or part of it in their own twitter handle doesn’t deserve a twitter account. because they’re probably 14.
So, don’t bully other women, but go and ahead and say really ugly things about Tina and Amy based on a joke…?
Oh, okay.
you expected something different? If the gender had a slogan, it’d go something like: “we bully women who bully other women because bullying women is wrong”
Whoa, whoa, whoa buddy. Taylor Swift doesn’t know what this “hypocrite” word you’re using means, but she doesn’t like it.
I am so glad that social media didn’t exist when I was a kid. I embarrass myself enough now at 40.
13 year old me would have done nothing but quote “Hit ‘Em Up” lyrics @ the official Bad Boy Records twitter account.
Haha, good one, Dan. Of course it’s not.
I am not as big a fan of them as most around these parts but if they keep pissing off these people I am ok with them.
So a half dozen random teenage girls get bent out of shape and that’s enough for a post now? Damn, this done changed the whole bloggin’ game.
There’s a petition, too.
I laughed.
I enjoy this story, because I feel Taylor Swift and her minions deserve to be mocked. They’re like a less violent Team Breezy.
Probably it’s because I’m old, but I find it difficult to believe Taylor Swift has rabid fans like this. Justin Beiber, yeah, I can understand that fan base, but…Taylor Swift? (and I’m not referring to either one’s music, but to fans who seem to idolise them as role models and demi-gods)
I have at least once adult, successful friend — note that I’m into my what would be considered MID-30’s at this point — who is a huge Taylor Swift fan. Like, this woman is a paralegal, has a young child. Huge fan of T-Swift, and has yelled at me when I mocked her (the her in this instance being both Swift and the fan in question, I guess). It’s mind-boggling.
She panders towards women who have had bad relationships or have unrealistically high expectations of men
Taylor Swift fans are the ultimate symbol of white privilege. They are rabid fans who wear really nice clothes to Swift concerts. Even their parents are rabid Swift fans. It’s really weird.
What a bunch of retarded babies. Taylor Swift fans are seriously the fucking worst.
Hey, hey, hey let’s not get crazy here. The hierarchy of garbage goes Chris Brown Fans, Bieber Fans, then T-Swizzle’s.
Now now, Mr Froggie, don’t forget Directioners! Although I know I’d certainly like to!
Team Breezy is the worst, but on the absolutely clueless scale, Swift diehards are easily second. At least Beiber and One Direction feign giving a shit about their own fans.
I guess it ain’t easy being T. Sweazy.
Except it is.
Stay perfect, Amy and Tina
Tell me more about these “Swifties.” Does this involve a parking lot and a half hour lunch break?
Nope, it’s half a hand-job followed by a shitty song written about what a dick you are.
The 12 year old Taylor Swift fans are right!
If you’re going to be a bitch, at least make a hit record out of being a bitch. Your fans will totally overlook it if it’s got a catchy tune.
I vote for Tina and Amy to host until they die of old age. And for them to “throw as much shade” as humanly possible on Taylor Swift and her league of idiots.
Do white chicks pull drive-bys? If so, I’d pay to see that happen.
White chicks do drive by’s, they just throw worn out shoes at the intended target. They often miss.
I think its adorable that little kids have their own version of “Roll Damn Tide”
*golf clap*
“Hey, Tina, how’s it going being all mean and stuff.”
“I don’t know, you’renotsorry13; how’s your mom’s pill addiction?”
Damn! Women be mensteruatin’
For most of these, probably not yet.
Welp, there goes my brain. Had a good run.
I’d love to see these kids in 5 years when they grow up and realize how ridiculous it is to defend their “idol”.
The sad thing about that is that there are plenty of middle aged women who are probably just as bad if not worse, considering their age and the supposed maturity that brings, than these teenage girls with regards to their fandom.
I thought most of their jokes were pretty bloody tame. I mean, I chuckled for a few of them, but, those ladies could do a lot better, that’s for sure.
Under my benevolent dictatorship, we shall use twitter as a way to cull the herd. Anyone on Team Taylor or Team Breezy get walked straight off a cliff. Then people who don’t get PFT Commenter.
No offence but if your making fun of PFT Commenter i’ve got some steel lunch pails with ur name on them… And noones putting lunches in them.
I don’t agree with the “Swifties” useless attack, I can definitely say that one person was pretty lucid when they asked why Tina had to bring that joke up a full year later. But then again I was offended by Cate Blanchett referencing Judy Garland’s drug addiction so maybe i’m just cranky.
These tweets are more right than wrong….
Scissor me timbers.
So what you’re saying is Kanye was right.
The children on Twitter get like this about EVERYONE they don’t like all the time. If you think the Swift fans are bad, collect a few thousand tweets from the Swift *haters.* Teenage girls are such fucking cunts on Twitter. I’m glad social media wasn’t around when I was that age, or I’d hate everyone I grew up with.
Reading all of that just made the Muppets movie commercial that much better.
I really like that they want Tina & Amy “fired” from something that they are not employed with. No one has the constant job of “Golden Globes host.”
I feel like this a bad place/time for me to be a huge fan of Taylor Swift …
Evidence that teenage girls are idiots. They’ll out grow it. I hope.
I think you can throw out the “girls” part of that.
And add “rs”, I suppose.
Swift fans are still pissed. Let me know when I should give a crap.
Just more prove that tina Fey and Amy Poler are over the hill. They cant handle the fact that Tayler was more successful by age 18 then they will ever be its time to give it UP!!
lawl
Honestly, I would’ve completely missed the joke if it wasn’t brought up here or elsewhere on the blabbity blab blab internets. (In fact, both me and my ladyfriend missed it and she’s a huge Amy+Tina gal.)
My only hope is that those unbearable [presumably] teenage girls were keen enough to spot the joke in real time and not after someone made a stink online. At least then we could praise their listening skills and affinity for callbacks as we virtually shit all over their faces.
Taylor Swift sucks and has no talent except with little girls. IF she and or … little follows can’t take a joke? Did shoot yourself… I didn’t even hear about this but thanks to the internet its everywhere. I only commented on this because…. Well I just want to say how stupid people are.
Jesus, can Amy, Tina and Swift just fuck and get it over with already? Please?
