We have fires raging for weeks and no deaths, and three people died today...

Worst parents ever?
Also, I would like to see Harry and Marv apply for real jobs.
I Just
had to write a sketch for Kirsten Dunst and Derek Waters.
Cool.

In the shower I was thinking about the Disney Channel. And about that 25-year-old Cheetah Girl who planted those risque pics and got her group tossed from the Macy’s Thanksgiving Day Parade. I don’t think I was erect! (Which means I probably was, but I digress.) I was wondering what subset of the population would be put off from going to the parade because it turns out one of the...
funny misconception!!!!!!!

everyone in LA who says they are from CT all magically fit into the city of greenwich, each owning his/her own marina with 5 yachts.

Interesting…but I find that wholly untrue. Most people I’ve met are from this town called Milford.
YEAHHHH MILFORD OWNS THE LARGER PERCENTAGE OF THE LOS ANGELES CONNECTICUTIANS POPULATION!...
Fans drink up HBO's 'True Blood' - USATODAY.com →
“This season was based on Dead Until Dark, Harris’ first book in the series and the best-selling title. The next is based on the second, Living Dead in Dallas, which finds Sookie spending time in that city. Several characters “get involved in what they think is a legitimate church,” Ball says. And a new creature “will create much havoc and chaos.”

Wow, this just might be my favorite CHTV video of all time.

New CHTV: Why Pilgrims’ Hats Have Buckles. It’s likely that this is the most ridiculous thing I have ever written, and the most ridiculous thing CHTV has ever shot. Thanks to Josh & Vince for bringing this to life with so many inspired touches. If you like your pilgrims hardcore, please share it & digg...

The Fray’s new music video for their song “You Found Me,” which features tons of juicy scenes from the upcoming fifth season of Lost, debuted tonight on ABC.
The song is the first single off the band’s self-titled sophomore effort, due out in early 2009.
Lost is set to return to ABC on Wednesday, January 21.

Awesome idea.

Heroes: Serial Killer? →
I could never get into this show. And I tried. I watched the first 8 or so episodes of season one and it just could not hook me. I thought the entire thing seemed contrived, and the dialog was god awful. I didn’t give a shit about any of the characters because I wasn’t buying them. That’s why I was surprised it was such a huge hit. Now, or so I hear, it sucks balls.
That’s...

Mr. Spriggs Timeline…
Jeffrey from Fatal Farm sends me the Mr. Spriggs commercial. I become immediately obsessed, blog about it, play it for everyone I know and even screen it at UCB before Cagematch.
I get hired to write for Funny or Die.
I upload Spriggs to the site, bringing it to the attention of Will Ferrell and Adam McKay. They immediately fall in love.

Hitler Only Had One Testicle →
He suffered injury to his groin in WWI. He was saved by a guy named Blassius, who said that when the Nazis swept to power he began to suffer nightmares and blame himself for saving Hitler.
Woopsie!

the orange ones are underrated

Me: what the fuck are the orange ones?
McCarthy: they are the other type
they look like they're vanilla bu they're orange
Me: they have orange filling?
McCarthy: no no, regular filling, they are orange cake
Me: this is unnatural
McCarthy: it's good man
Me: i won't stand for it
McCarthy: whatever you say, dude. it's fascists like you who pass a bill making animals have rights and gays lose them.
Me: yo go eat your twisted orange cakes you weirdo
McCarthy: you are so dated you don't even know what's going on, the snackfood world has passed you by, you fucking relic
Me: next thing you'll be eating fucking sno balls
McCarthy: you're just trying to deflect from the fact that you hoard funny bones like a squirrel
Me: HOW DARE YOU
have i eaten funny bones? yes, who hasn't
but did i enjoy it? does anybody?
the answer is no, sir
McCarthy: methinks he doth protest too much
Chuck Klosterman's "Killing Yourself To Live"...
I heard Corey Feldman is set to play him?
kevinbegley:
From PasteMagazine.com:
If the inherently morbid 6,557 mile cross-country trek in Killing Yourself to Live had one lesson for Chuck Klosterman, it was the old trope that the journey is more important than the destination. Still, the destination has been pretty nice for Klosterman; five books into his career, he’s the reigning king of...
