Game Time with Dave and Greg

Posted March 14th, 2009 and filed under comedy, media, sports.

Update: Newer versions of this sketch are called Game Time with Randy and Greg If you missed SNL last week, you missed one of the all-time funniest skits in the long history of the show. Ten seconds into “Game Time with Dave and Greg” and I was going, “WTF?” I cannot even begin to imagine… Read more »

The Office Musical

Posted March 5th, 2009 and filed under comedy, media.

I just cannot understand people that don’t like The Office. Yes, I will agree that the Ricky Gervais / English / original version of the show was very well done and a grand comedic achievement. But after fifteen years I finally love NBC’s Thursday night TV again for two main reasons: The Office and the… Read more »

I find it tremendously awesome that the mysterious and unbelievably cool Spaghetti Cat makes a cameo in the Fall Out Boy video for I Don’t Care.

Things to Say During Sex

Posted January 16th, 2009 and filed under comedy.

Incredimazing.com has a wonderful flowchart of Things to Say During Sex. The “bad” side of the chart is predictably much funnier than the “good” side. My favorites are: Heil Hitler! I just pooped. A lot. On your dog. We’re going to hell for this.

Arrested Development

Awesome news from Jason: You can now watch every episode of Arrested Development online, for free, at Hulu.com! We just started watching this brilliantly funny show this summer. I’m only up to about the middle of season two, and am seriously looking forward to the rest.

Easy Passwords

I have a friend who has a ridiculously simple password that he uses for almost everything. Now, I’m not going to get into all the many reasons that this is a bad idea. You already know that you shouldn’t use the same password for everything, right? And that you shouldn’t use something really easy to… Read more »

Tim

If you’re not watching HBO’s The Life & Times of Tim, you are missing the funniest show on TV right now. It’s a combination of Family Guy and Seinfeld, with a bit of The Office added to make it uncomfortable. And like The Royal Tenenbaums you need to pay attention to all the details that… Read more »

Enough with Your Pancakes

Posted September 16th, 2008 and filed under comedy.

Every day a new city, a new IHOP. And yet every night the dreams get worse. I ply the highways, a nervous eye on the rear-view mirror, the back seat piled with stolen menus.

The Lord Knows the Score

Posted September 4th, 2008 and filed under comedy, sports, technology.

Every year around this time I get to enjoy one of my all-time favorite acronyms. (You know I’m an acronymphomaniac, right?) All of the important data utilized by the National Football League is stored in the “Game Statistics & Information System” — GSIS. As far as the NFL is concerned, GSIS is awesome and GSIS… Read more »

Rude Fortune

Posted August 1st, 2008 and filed under comedy.

A few weeks ago I wrote about how annoying it is to get an “affirmation cookie” instead of one with an actual fortune. Well at lunch today one of my co-workers got what we thought was a horribly rude fortune cookie. Instead of the usual mindless drivel, instead of even a useless affirmation, the “directive”… Read more »
