Quotes of the Day CNBC's Eamon Javers gets swallowed by Kermit the Frog background:"Rehearsing for tonight's #cnbcdebate in front of the biggest dang green screen I've ever seen." Editor gets pounded by mall doc on weight "Christ, even the eye doctor at the mall is telling me to get more exercise. STICK TO THE EYES, DOC" -- Gawker Political Editor Jim Newell. We're not going to even ask why you're eye doctor is at the mall. Chelsea Handler on the Welsh Rugby player who woke up gay after a freak gym incident: "I love how he wakes up and he has to become a hairdresser. Like there's no other job for a gay man. Like you could become an interior designer. You could become a Republican senator. There are many, many options." Journo questions Hardball host's verbal skills "Does it annoy you, @grovernorquist, that it's pathologically impossible for @hardball_chris to pronounce your name correctly? #hardball" -- Newsbusters' Ken Shepherd. Pre-Presidential debate trash talking "Romney's the only remotely sane one, & he's the guy who drove 500 miles with his dog on the roof of the car." -- WaPo's Gene Weingarten. WCP employees lash out at fire alarm "Once again, @wcp fire alarm defeated simply by people yelling at it. Now just hope there isn't actually a fire." -- WCP Managing Editor Mike Madden. Boybander loses marbles over Chili's Too "Chili's Too is truly a sad, pale imitation of Chili's. I want my baby back ribs!!!" -- Think Progress blogger Matt Yglesias. Correction: We confused Yglesias for his friend Spencer Ackerman and have taken out the banana wisecrack. RELAX SARA LIBBY. Ambinder wants Eddie's gig "I am available to host the Oscars." -- NJ's Marc Ambinder after comedian Eddie Murphy drops out. Unnecessary Tweet of the Day "DILEMMA: I want to eat this chewy granola bar, but it has a picture of a Jonas Brother on it." -- Roll Call Editor Ryan Beckwith. Then, inexplicably, the granola bar Twitter handle confronts him. "@quakerchewy: @ryanbeckwith We can assure you, it's delicious. Which flavor are you snackin' on, Ryan?" And he responds, "PB & Jonas." Beckwith should be banned from ever conversing with a granola bar during work hours. If he wants to stay up late into the night chatting away with quakerchewy so be it. But it should be frowned upon.
