App erases Charlie Sheen from the Internet

Charlie Sheen’s Winning Reign of Tiger Blood Terror heads toward its third week with no end in sight, especially on the Internet. Dude wants to hire a Web intern, for crying out loud.

But fear not Netizens! Relief from America’s Id is at hand.

Greg Leuch, the intrepid young developer behind the Justin Bieber-erasing Shaved Bieber app, continues to do God’s work on the Internet with Tinted Sheen, the Charlie Sheen Browser Blocker that will "hide most Charlie Sheen related text and images from your browsing experience."

"Sorry Charlie, but it is time to leave the Internet and go back to your porn family," reads the app page where you can download the plugin for Firefox or Chrome. "Let this be the hangover cure for the #winning buzz from which everyone is still recovering."

Tinted Sheen, in action on Wikipedia.

If the Gregory Brother’s Auto-Tune masterpiece "Winning – a Song By Charlie Sheen" or even a photo of a wee fuzzy bun-bun quoting, "I AM BATTLE TESTED BAYONETS" makes you wish for world annihilation over another Charlie Sheen reference on the Internet, then Tinted Sheen is for you!  

Downloaded more than  1925 times since it launched today, Tinted Sheen is adapted from Leuch’s popular Shaved Bieber app which blocks out all Internet instances of "Bieber," "Justin Bieber" and photos with "Bieber"in the file name. Shaved Bieber also aimed an Internet’s worth of angry adolescent girls in Leuch’s direction, who shared their opinion of his innovation via death threats and Hitler comparisons.  

No such passionate reactions so far to Tinted Sheen, Leuch tells Digital Life, just one NSFW comment from a so-called "RalphWiggum" who seems angry: "F--- you haters. Enjoy living in poverty with your sh---y hipster art."

Very angry indeed. Charlie, is that you?

Downloads should hit 298 million (assuming 300 million Americans - yes I know low).  So 300M minus 2M of twitter friends = 298M people who need it.

Can they make it work with TV as well or is that too hopeful?

Too bad that they can't come up with one to keep him out of the "news" headlines and off of the morning shows.

No kidding, getting pretty tired of seeing his washed up face.

    You mean his strung out face. It's pretty obvious that he's been on a cocaine binge lately.

      Perfect! I'd just decided this past weekend that I'd had enough of him and the endless stories about his loserhood so the timing couldn't be better.

          I am just wondering when Charlie Sheen will hit the "Britney Spears Paparazzi Wall". Which of course would be the point in time when your behavior becomes so sad and disturbing that even a greedy paparazzo feels bad about taking your picture, and tabloids decide to take a hiatus from covering your self-destructive behavior to allow you privacy to heal.

              Holler when they develop an app that just erases Sheen himself. Or is everybody waiting for him to do it?

                            you guys are all so negative...charlie surely said some things that didn't make much sense, but tv/movie star or not he is still a person. i believe everyone that's making such a big deal out of his actions really need 2 look in the mirror and judge themselves before they judge others.

                               SO, now in this country so called young Bieber fans (girls) are calling in death threats and calling people Hitler.  I will bet good money that those little darlings will make great ex-wives

                                  Could we do Sarah Palin as well? Both receive way too much coverage.
