I noticed the threads were having a hectic day and I just wanted to share some good news

Honey Boo Boo is back in business.

Alana "Honey Boo Boo" Thompson, the star of TLC's "Here Comes Honey Boo Boo," was admonished for helping a friend sell Girl Scout cookies via a Facebook ad, so now she's set up shop at the Milledgeville Mall in Georgia.

The 7-year-old was photographed holding a handmade sign urging shoppers to purchase cookies for $3.50 a box.

Thompson had previously posted a banner on her Facebook page advertising Girl Scout cookies. It listed pricing and contact info for her 700,000-plus fans on the site.

"What we felt was inappropriate is that it appeared that Honey Boo Boo herself was selling the cookies, and she's not a Girl Scout," Debbie Caballero, a marketing and communications officer for the Girls Scouts of Historic Georgia, told ABC News Radio last week.

Debbie Caballero did go on to say they will graciously accept $2,450,000.00 on the sale of the cookies to the 700,000 fans making purchase of said cookies at $3.50/box.

So what if she is not a GS. She is helping out a friend.

You know, when south park aired that episode with Honey Boo Boo, I thought the character was fiction...

Priceless.

Sadly, none of those cookies made it to the mall.

Haha. South Park is pretty darn funny.

Yesterday, I just learned about Jimmy McMillan and the Rent Is Too Damn High Party.

Here's a link to Youtube:

SNL did a pretty darn good impression of this guy.
