Shaq Talks About The Moment The Lakers Dynasty Died - Stupid Deadspin, always getting the exclusives. The only review copy of a book I ever got was a hardcover about Derek Jeter, and I can’t really make a news post with “Derek Jeter is great and everyone thinks so” blurbs. [Smoking Section]

4 Science Fiction Series Netflix Should Bring Back - I don’t really care about ‘Reaper’, but bringing back the other three would be great, especially Justice League. That show was secretly the best thing on TV for like three years. [Gamma Squad]

Bret Hart vs. Shawn Michaels: Behind One of WWE’s Greatest Rivalries - The Masked Man reviews the latest WWE DVD and makes 100% fewer “we’re gonna get hungry and leave no man untested” jokes than I would’ve. Don’t ever let me write for Grantland. [Grantland]

Our Favorite TV-Related Halloween Costumes from Walking Around NYC - I wish I’d thought to do this for Austin, but I wouldn’t be able to stomach all the “hipster” comments. I saw one guy dressed as “think outside the box” and he was just wearing a box, no lie. [Warming Glow]

Someone Shouted “Where’s Bumblebee Now?” While Shia Was Getting Beat Up - It would’ve been better if Shia himself had yelled BUMBLEBEEEAHHHH while getting beaten up, but I’ll take it. What a Disturbia-ing situation! [Film Drunk]

Plugin Allows You To “De-Kardashian” Your Browser - Great, there go our pageviews! [The FW]

Top 10 Lil Wayne Songs - I like the one where he mumbles and it sounds like he wrote it in 20 seconds before the music started. You see a lot of crooks and the crooks still crook! [PopCrush]

They Took Our Jobs

Written by Brandon Stroud / 10.06.11

Steve Jobs dies

Steve Jobs, one of the most important people in our modern world, has died. It’s hard to do a tribute to him at With Leather, because a “The Sports World Reacts To The Death Of Steve Jobs” thing would just be LeBron James going “@justinbieber Steve Jobs dead please RT”, but he deserves a network full of obituaries, and here are a few from the UPROXX family. You died like you lived, Steve: smarter than everyone else, and never changing clothes.

Steve Jobs Is Dead At 56 - I’m glad he lived more than twice as long as Jack Noseworthy. [UPROXX]

R.I.P. Steve Jobs - Warming Glow’s tribute, featuring his 2005 Stanford commencement address and a sick burn on Zunes. [Warming Glow]

Obits: Former Apple CEO Steve Jobs - A word from TSS. [The Smoking Section]

The World Reacts To The News Of Steve Jobs’ Death - This features that amazing Tweet from the Westboro Baptist Church about how they’re gonna picked Steve’s funeral, posted using the Church lady’s iPhone. Great stuff. [Gamma Squad]

And now, some stuff to get this off your mind.

Kirsten Dunst: “I couldn’t have done Antichrist because my boobs are too big.” - Having seen two key scenes in Melancholia, I support this. I also would’ve accepted “I couldn’t have done Antichrist because I didn’t want the Green Goblin to actually put his dick in me”. [Film Drunk]

The Last Words Of 20 People Who Were Executed - I want my last words before execution to be “boom, roasted”. [Buzzfeed]

When Did Kelly Osbourne Get Sorta Hot? - She didn’t. She’s going backwards, and was sorta hot a few years ago when she was chubby and Sheamus-white and trying to be a goth pop star. [FARK]
