Two memes on my radar

progNew meme:
Suddenly, everyone hates Tom Cruise.
I am not sure why this is. Some strange parodic references to this and that have trickled down to me, but without context they are meaningless. They do provide me with google terms I can use, however. Probably I'll go research them now, but I just wanted to note this here before I figure out what's going on.
Just-noticed meme:
People who run for exercise don't jog; they run. And the word for these people is: runners.
I wonder if this is just regional. I want to jump to the sexier conclusion that it's actually the result of a successful rebranding effort by the running-for-exercise community, since "jogger" is probably right down there with "mime" for most middle-Americans.
