OK, so I’ve been watching a lot of Penn & Teller’s Bullshit show on Showtime lately. I like magic tricks (but not the stupid Chris Angel and David Copperfield kind), especially card tricks and fun sleight of hand ones. Well, this show is more about them pointing out things in society that they think are […]
It’s Thanksgiving, so of course this edition of the Friday Funnies has to involve the holiday. And what better way than to play the hilarious faux trailer from Grindhouse. I know I’ve featured it on here before, but damn if it doesn’t make me laugh every time. “White meat, dark meat, all will be carved.” […]
I never watch Dancing With the Stars, thank goodness. Looks like the most miserable thing ever. Also, I didn’t ever watch whatever show this Melissa Joan Hart girl was on. All I know is that apparently she played a witch of some sort, it was a long time ago, and the girl ain’t done shit […]
I am going to see the lovely and wonderful Cate Blanchett tonight at the Kennedy Center in A Streetcar Named Desire. Looking forward to it indeed. In honor of seeing her tonight, here is a good clip of her in one of my favorite movies, Life Aquatic with Steve Zissou. […]
I grew up on Chevy Chase movies. Whether they are good or bad in your opinion, in my family they are comic gold. So for this instance of the Friday Funnies, we are going to look back at one of the best scenes from Spies Like Us. “Stop right there, and I’ll bring back the […]
Sorry I missed last week. I thought I had posted it and then someone was kind enough to point out that their Friday dose of humor was missing. This week I am giving a couple deleted clips from last week’s The Office, where Jim and Pam got married. Creed may be the most underrated talent […]
I am an unabashed fan of the Coen brothers movies. And despite all of their recent successes, it is still one of the early films that I consider their best. Raising Arizona is a classic, and probably one of my top 5 favorite comedies ever created. Here is one of the best scenes, featuring Glen […]
I am an unabashed fan of The Office. It reminds me whole-heartedly of my time working at Scripps. Sorry, but it does. I had some crazy coworkers who fit the bill perfectly. I know others think their office is the same, but this is my blog so suck it, it was my office that fit […]
One of the first (and still one of the best) stand-up routines I ever saw was Robin Williams Live at the Met. This is him, back in the mid-80s, at his most insane and off-kilter. His mind goes so fast that you can barely keep up, and while nothing is the most drop-dead hilarious, the […]
I cannot believe the Dave Chappelle Show has been off the air for as long as it has. Damn that show was funny. One of the standouts of the show was Charlie Murphy, Eddie’s brother, and who knew this guy was so funny? I was stunned. Well, he shows off his better moments when reminiscing […]
