We liked the sex better

Our fives of readers may remember last week's story about the best wake-up call ever*.

So this morning, around 5ish, we swear on our good name that we were awakened awokened woke up because someone in a nearby apartment started rehearsing for American Idol.

We swear we heard someone belting out Queen of the Night or some sh*t. We swear.

Payback for our night-before panic practices for Nashville Star? Maybe. But we weren't all Fantasia with our sh*t.

Huh. We don't know. Now that we think on it, maybe it was a dream. Who sings Queen of the Night at 5 a.m.?

Huh.

* We've given up all hope on BEST ______ EVER. We know. It's just that it's the best adjective ever.

Meanwhile, back with the enough alreadys.

Seriously. You got duped. There is no Santa Claus. The Tooth Fairy doesn't exist. Pro wrestling is real.

From the Associated Press, and by Associated Press we mean Associated Press:

An American man claims he was "accosted" by the star of the spoof documentary Borat - alias comedian Sacha Baron Cohen - while using a bathroom at an upmarket restaurant last year, according to a lawsuit.

It is the latest of several lawsuits filed since the release of the film Borat: Cultural Learnings of America for Make Benefit Glorious Nation of Kazakhstan.

The scene with the man, who was not identified in the lawsuit, does not appear in the hit movie but has been shown on Comedy Central and various video-sharing websites, said Columbia attorney Jonathan Milling.

"He has been contacted by numerous people who have recognised him," Milling said.

The plaintiff, a South Carolina resident, says the comedian - also famous for the comic creation Ali G - posed as a bathroom attendant at Ristorante Divino in October 2005, invading his privacy and staring as he used a urinal, according to the lawsuit.

"He is embarrassed and humiliated and leaves the restaurant," Milling said of his client.

The plaintiff was told a crew was filming a documentary on tourism but he never saw cameras, which were hidden in the toilet, according to the lawsuit. The lawsuit makes no mention of a consent waiver and Milling said his client was not paid.

The man is seeking punitive damages and is asking that the scene not be put on DVD.

A judge in Los Angeles last week rejected a request by two South Carolina fraternity brothers to block the DVD release of the movie.

The judge also refused to order the removal of a scene that includes the two men, who claim they had been duped into misbehaving on camera. The pair sued on November 9, claiming they were tricked into making racist and sexist remarks to Cohen in the movie.

That's right, for one night only, the founding members of Dov's Our Side Project took it to a whole 'nother level last night!!!

In between heated debates on inner city schools, who the true nemesis is, and whether exclamation points have betrayed a generation, D(O)SP embarked on the genuinely jumbled jams it became famous for back in ought-four!!!!!!!

Two songs!!! Two hours!!!! Good times!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Rider was my favorite, too. All 62 minutes of it.

But next time, can you do the whistle thing? It reminds me of that time when the ranger almost caught me.

Almost.
