Farrah Abraham & Simon Sarah: Engaged?!
Earlier today, we told you about unconfirmed reports that Farrah Abraham is pregnant with Simon Saran’s baby.
We’re always skeptical of rumors that seem to have originated in an Instagram comment thread, and Simon has already revealed in an interview that Farrah’s definitively not knocked up.
But if you think that’ll prevent the spread of more wild rumors about her love life, then you don’t know the Internet!
Abraham and Saran are currently in Jamaica, where they’re celebrating Farrah’s 26th birthday.
Yes, it may seem like Farrah’s been irritating mankind since the advent of television, but in reality, she’s only just now entering her late 20s.
Anyway, it seems that last night Simon decided to foot the bill for once, and he treated Farrah to a candlelit dinner on the beach on Montego Bay.
Prior to the meal, Simon set the mood by leading Farrah down a curiously dong-shaped lighted pathway.
Fans could be forgiven for the thinking the moment was leading up to a proposal.
In fact, many of them jumped to that conclusion, despite the fact that the clip ended with no such climax.
Farrah bought her own engagement ring almost a year ago, so we guess it’s understandable that fans would be eagerly seeking out hints that Simon is looking to pop the question.
Simon didn’t help matters by responding to the rumors with an obnoxiously coy response.
“This was just her birthday surprise,” he wrote in response to the comments.
And that would’ve been fine, if he hadn’t added a winking smiley face emoji at the end.
But if you know Farrah, you know that she’s not the type to hide big news from the public.
In fact, she doesn’t hide anything from the public.
This is a girl who Snapchats brushing her teeth and openly muses about her daughter’s sex tape.
There is absolutely no way that Farrah would get engaged and not immediately take out ads in every major newspaper in America.
We’re sure Simon will eventually succumb to the pressure and put Farrah’s own ring on her finger, but it almost certainly didn’t happen in Jamaica last night.
Watch Teen Mom online to relive every moment of the ridiculousness that is Simon and Farrah’s relationship.

Wonder Woman: Misogynist ROASTED by Austin Mayor Steve Adler!
Have you seen Wonder Woman yet?
I have. It was great. A friend cried during it. The audience applauded at the end.
But the film’s release hasn’t been a stranger to controversy. One particularly hateful response to a women-only screening got an epic smack-down by none other than the mayor of Austin, Texas.
Yeah, usually mayors don’t get a lot of attention for talking about superhero movies, and Mayor Steve Adler isn’t really an exception.
He’s talking about sexism and human dignity.
The controversy wasn’t so much about Wonder Woman itself, but about one theater’s decision to host a women-only screening, and one of the men who absolutely flipped out about it.
In case it actually needs to be stated, like, men-only screenings of films aren’t uncommon. Also plenty of bars still have “Ladies Night” and that sort of thing.
It’s a little weird, sure, though we can totally understand why some women would want to see the film in the absence of guys like whatever piece of work wrote this horrifying email to Austin’s mayor.
“The notion of a woman hero is a fine example of women’s eagerness to accept the appearance of achievement without actual achievement.
“Women learn from an early age to value make-up, that it’s OK to pretend that you are greater than you actually are,” he writes, only after hoping for Austin’s defamation and accusing the theater of “sexism.”
All superheroes are pretend, not just the lady ones. The makeup comment is so weird that we don’t even know how to respond except to say that clearly this guy doesn’t ever do anything to improve his appearance.
“Women pretend they do not know that only men serve in combat because they are content to have an easier ride. Women gladly accept gold medals at the Olympics for coming in 10th and competing only against the second class of athletes,” he says as if he isn’t the wrongest person to ever live.
“Name something invented by a woman! Achievements by the second rate gender pale in comparison to virtually everything great in human history was accomplished by men, not women,” he continued, just keeping on digging that hole.
The short version of all of this is that a man who despises women claims that he doesn’t.
He then signs his name, Richard A. Ameduri, because that’s totally a letter where you’d want to include your name.
Steve Adler’s letter in response is all kinds of savage.
“I am writing to alert you that your email account has been hacked by an unfortunate and unusually hostile individual,” he begins.
“Please remedy your account’s security right away, lest this person’s uninformed and sexist rantings give you a bad name. After all, we men have to look out for each other!”
That’s tongue-in-cheek and beautiful, right?
Then he dives in and just begins solidly refuting the vile man’s sexist claims.
“Can you imagine if someone thought that you didn’t know women could serve in our combat units now without exclusion?” he asked. You can feel the sarcasm emanating in waves from the screen.
Remember that claim that women never invented anything? Adler sure did.
“What if someone thought you didn’t know that women invented medical syringes, life rafts, fire escapes, central and solar heating, a war-time communications system for radio-controlling torpedoes that laid the technological foundations for everything from Wi-Fi to GPS, and beer?”
A nicely succinct list.
Which of course could have been longer.
He also took the time to remind the whiner that a private business can hold whatever screenings they like.
“And I hesitate to imagine,” he adds. “How embarrassed you’d be if someone thought you were upset that a private business was realizing a business opportunity by reserving one screening this weekend for women to see a superhero movie.”
Savage.
We love seeing intelligent politicians go off on people who deserve it.
And speaking of things getting what they deserve, Wonder Woman is already a hit at the box office after only Thursday night’s early previews.
We can’t wait to see what kind of numbers she rakes in by the end of the weekend.
