The star of the American version of “The Office” will suit up as Bilbo Baggins in the two-part “Lord of the Rings” prequel “The Hobbit.”</p> <p>“Despite the various rumors that the role would go to Martin Freeman, there has only ever been one Bilbo Baggins for us,” director Peter Jackson said in a statement released on Thursday, according to BBC News. He called the 32-year-old Krasinski ”a likable cool guy — exactly like Bilbo,” and said he was perfect for the role. “There are a few times in your career when you come across an actor who you know was born to play a role, but that was the case as soon as I met John,” Jackson said.</p> <p>Krasinski will inhabit the Shire alongside a crew of other lesser-known actors including Richard Armitage (“Captain America: The First Avenger”) as Thorin Oakenshield, Aidan Turner (“Being Human”) as Kili, Rob Kazinsky (“EastEnders”) as Fili, Graham McTavish (“Secretariat”) as Dwalin, John Callen as Olin, Stephen Hunter as Bombur, Mark Hadlow as Dori and Peter Hambleton as Gloin.</p> <p><span class="Apple-style-span">Martin Freeman, who was originally considered for the role, told reporters “</span>Krasinski<span class="Apple-style-span"> will do a great job. We’re good friends. I know he’ll be able to bring Bilbo to life on screen with the same smirky wit that made him so vibrant on the page.”</span></p> </div> </blockquote> <div> <p><span class="Apple-style-span">Hello yes I’m sorry what just happened<br/></span></p> </div><img src="http://feeds.feedburner.com/~r/AfternoonSnoozeButton/~4/YVHKXAbG104" height="1" width="1"/>http://feedproxy.google.com/~r/AfternoonSnoozeButton/~3/YVHKXAbG104/17148149220http://afternoonsnoozebutton.com/post/17148149220Mon, 06 Feb 2012 04:42:12 -0500http://afternoonsnoozebutton.com/post/17148149220<img src="http://27.media.tumblr.com/tumblr_lyvzvzJegT1qc5qo7o1_400.jpg"/><br/> <br/><img src="http://27.media.tumblr.com/tumblr_lyvzvzJegT1qc5qo7o2_500.jpg"/><br/> <br/><img src="http://28.media.tumblr.com/tumblr_lyvzvzJegT1qc5qo7o3_500.jpg"/><br/> <br/><img src="http://26.media.tumblr.com/tumblr_lyvzvzJegT1qc5qo7o4_500.jpg"/><br/> <br/><img src="http://24.media.tumblr.com/tumblr_lyvzvzJegT1qc5qo7o5_500.jpg"/><br/> <br/><img src="http://26.media.tumblr.com/tumblr_lyvzvzJegT1qc5qo7o6_400.jpg"/><br/> <br/><img src="http://30.media.tumblr.com/tumblr_lyvzvzJegT1qc5qo7o7_500.jpg"/><br/> <br/><img src="http://28.media.tumblr.com/tumblr_lyvzvzJegT1qc5qo7o8_500.jpg"/><br/> <br/><img src="http://25.media.tumblr.com/tumblr_lyvzvzJegT1qc5qo7o9_500.jpg"/><br/> <br/><img src="http://26.media.tumblr.com/tumblr_lyvzvzJegT1qc5qo7o10_500.jpg"/><br/> <br/><p><a class="tumblr_blog" href="http://anarchymydear.tumblr.com/post/17049522274/suspicious-quotation-marks">anarchymydear</a>:</p> <blockquote> <p><strong>Suspicious Quotation Marks</strong></p> </blockquote> <p>Professional “massage”<br/>Relax Sport Reductive</p><img src="http://feeds.feedburner.com/~r/AfternoonSnoozeButton/~4/jTlRkxCQBlc" height="1" width="1"/>http://feedproxy.google.com/~r/AfternoonSnoozeButton/~3/jTlRkxCQBlc/17148108237http://afternoonsnoozebutton.com/post/17148108237Mon, 06 Feb 2012 04:39:38 -0500http://afternoonsnoozebutton.com/post/17148108237<img src="http://25.media.tumblr.com/tumblr_lyxamxvdu11qbohddo1_r1_500.gif"/><br/><br/><p>I’m going to hell, aren’t I?

Pete Hoekstra (R-MI) has come under fire <a href="http://www.politico.com/news/stories/0212/72466.html">for a “racially charged” Super Bowl campaign ad</a> that relies on a variety of stereotypes to depicts Chinese people, including gong noises, a conical straw hat, and a Charlie Chan-ish command of the English language.</p> <p>The ad is part of Hoekstra’s campaign for Democratic Michigander Debbie Stabenow’s seat in the Senate.</p> <p>Asked to explain the ad, Hoekstra spokesperson Paul Ciaramitaro called it “satirical,” and rejected its characterization as “racial.”</p> <p>“I think that China is our global competitor and the facts are what they are,” said Ciaramitaro. “They hold $1.1 trillion of our debt, their economy is booming, ours is not. It’s not a racial overtone to compare yourself to competitors on the global stage. I think the viewer of an ad is going to recognize satire.”</p> <p>[<a href="http://www.politico.com/news/stories/0212/72466.html">politico</a> / <em>thanks alex!</em>]</p> </blockquote> <p>Fuck you, Rep.
