You Probably Didn’t Watch “Eli Stone”
So here’s the commercial for Oceanic Air (Lost) that you may have missed… You can thank me later for suffering through the latest Johnny Lee Miller vehicle (I give it a full 8 episodes – or until the writer’s strike is over, whichever comes first).
Oh, and just so you don’t have to do the [...]
Late-Night Filler – NSFW
For some reason the Rudy Ray Moore movie, Dolemite, came up twice in conversation in one week. Which means I hang out with the right people. I don’t know how familiar some people are with him, but his films are insanely wonderful.
An interesting perspective on blowing yourself
I was just listening to Kevin Smiths Smodcast, because all I do is edit, and listen to podcasts and Howard Stern while driving to those edits. But Kevin just admitted that he once got the tip of his penis in his mouth. Most men have at at least made a half-hearted attempt to blow themselves [...]
Things I Learned While Getting My Hair Cut
Eddie Murphy divorced his wife and then married Babyface’s wife about 2 weeks ago. They’ve already split up and the article in PEOPLE mentioned that there was a lot of stress from both of their Moms. And then toward the end of the article it just casually mentions that another source of [...]
Hall and Oates Were Way Ahead of Their Time
Videos before MTV. God love Hall and Oates for getting high too much in the 70’s.
Now this… This is advertising.
I love advertising with balls. Big balls. The kind of balls that say, “You’re used to seeing blue and pink bears run through the forest to use some toilet paper. You’re used to seeing happy safe families play in their new car. You’re used to seeing things that make you feel [...]
People Who “Can’t Be Replaced”
I’ve had a lot of jobs. Yeah, I’ve been “let go” (I really didn’t mean to hit that lady with golf cart. She was old, and I did yell, “Get out of the way”….). I’ve been subjected to a “Reduction in Force” (a really nice way to say, “this company’s going to [...]
Would You Think of Me Less??
I’m thinking about maybe getting into Carrie Underwood. The cheating song where she kills the dude’s car? And then that guy inside the bar and doesn’t even know it? I’ll bet that is a song she let’s the audience sing along and puts the microphone out to let us know it’s our turn. [...]
“I think we’re dead.”
This may be old news (no pun intended), but it really made me laugh. Enjoy, and let this be a lesson to you as well.
I’m not a fan of “cats”, I’m a fan of LOLCATS.
I don’t know when this started – wait. That’s a lie. I Wikipedia’d this, so I know it started in like 2005-2006. Someone took a cute shot of a cat/kitten – wrote some bad English, misspelling words and the like, posted it, and all the fans of Cat Fancy magazine who are [...]
Election ‘08 with Emmett James
Over the past week or so, it has become increasingly clear that my 3 year old nephew Emmett has more insightful commentary regarding the upcoming election than most pundits on CNN. Schadenfreude recently caught up with Mr. James between his Tuesday morning pre-school and his afternoon nap (which he has recently been refusing, and [...]
If you guys are looking for a good search engine, I guess HotBot is pretty decent
Can We Get This Guy for Our Rent Party Tour?!
Wow. Brilliant. Be it fake or real, it’s perfect. We need to book this guy for one of our upcoming shows. Or to fold my laundry. One of the two. Thanks to Chicagoist for changing my life.
Barnard’s Sinkhole News Clip!
Here is the clip of the news coverage of last night’s protest of the sinkhole on Montrose. Ken Barnard led the charge to save the sinkhole before they fill it. Best part: Is that Ron Burgundy? Oh no, it’s Mike Barz. Pay attention to his awesome snap at the [...]
Is That Karl Rove? Oh Never Mind – It’s Just Hillary…
Hey Hillary – you are making a speech in Florida for a primary you won because nobody campaigned there since all the democrats agreed that it wouldn’t count cause Florida broke party laws? But you are still making a speech and making rumblings that Florida should count? And Michigan for that matter, even though you [...]
People who don’t respond to email
We use email in order to save time and increase efficiency. So why, when we email certain people, do they not get back? Are they blowing us off? Did they not get the message? It’s 2008; people get their emails. The standard “my email sucks!” excuse is growing thin. [...]
How Come Everyone Has A Stalker But Me?
What am I doing wrong? Even Garrison has one? I was on Chicago Public Radio for almost three years and I got NOTHING. No fair! His super-fan sent him fun stuff like a petrified alligator foot, dead beetles and poems. And kudos to Garrison for dropping his restraining [...]
Cheezborger, Cheezborger… Canburger?
.
It’s true. All of mankind’s knowledge and achievements can be summed up with “Cheeseburger in a Can.” Think about it. Anywhere you go. Anything you do – there will now be a cheeseburger. I propose this:
Cheeseburger in a can is the single greatest invention of the 21st Century.
Anyone care to [...]
