Here's a fun folk game you need to try out next time you're on a road trip. When you see a dingy crappy worn down motel in a small town somewhere find a review for it and read it out loud. Here's an example from an actual road trip.

Short one, conservative Pink Floyd fans confuse me. Recently Roger Waters on the Us+Them tour has gotten very political and a bunch of conservatives walked out on his show. To which I say, why are you shocked!? Pink Floyd has been very political over the years and yet all of a sudden now you realize that the socialist man on stage is a socialist and dislikes the current politics because he said it. But apparently when he sings it you don't notice. This is why people need to be thinking about the lyrics.

This play is in the public Domain. Narrator sits in fancy chair. Enter John. Narrator: Hello children today I will tell you the story of Bram Stoker's Dracula. Long ago in 1890 right over in Transylvania an oblivious dolt named Jonathan Harker John: HEY! Narrator: who goes off to make a real-estate deal with Count Dracula. Despite the warnings of multiple locals telling him it's a bad idea. Enter Local Local: It's a bad idea! John: I'll be fine. Local: At least take this Crucifix. John: No thanks I am a protestant. Exit Local and  Enter Dracula Dracula: Ah Nice to Eat you, I mean meet you. John: Pleased to meet you too. Narrator: As you can see John has no idea that he has no idea that he's in a gothic horror story. John: Here you go count just sign this lease and we can get you your new house in London. Dracula: Here you go and also can I start sending these thirteen boxes of dirt to my new house. John: Sure I guess. Dracula: Hey h...

Listen to Joco's Solid State. Now! You can listen to it. For free. You have no excuse. Solid State is one of those albums no one saw coming. If you know who Jonathan Coulton is you probably know him for songs like Flickr, Code Monkey, his work on NPR's Ask Me Another, and of course his claim to fame Still Alive (the song at the end of Portal.) Now if you have listened to any of these songs you may realize, these all feel like comedy songs, 'why is Nash saying something he released is a work of art.' Well remember, the point of the court Jester is to realize what's wrong with society. Solid State is a concept album and I have yet to read the accompanying comic book but I have my own interpretation of the album which I've pieced together over the course of repeat listens all I know about the official story is about two guys in the future named Bob whose lives are intertwined via a sentient A.I. Don't let that fool you though the album is really a dystopian...

Dear, Cards Against Humanity I wanna begin by saying that I don't hate you, by far you helped me out a lot in High School. You got me out of my shell and helped me to socialize with others. Your basically the reason I survived sophomore year. Your shock value made me laugh and I loved the Holiday Bullshit... But alas I realized that it wasn't you I was enjoying. It was my friends. I've been playing board games for 6 some odd years and I started to realize that the best humor came from when my friends did things in games, explained reasoning, and it was funny. Now I think Matt Lees put it best when he said, " I suspect that people don’t often question the nature of the game that they’ve actually bought. And that’s fair – asking people to analyze fun can kill parties quicker than your gay dad kills children. The joke I just made wasn’t funny or appropriate, but crucially it remains my joke. Jokes aren’t a mechanic to get us out of trouble when we find out we’ve d...

I've always wanted to a walking contradiction of a man. One who is simultaneously doing nothing and yet he is always busy. A man who is always receiving yet gives it all away. A man who is confident yet always insecure. A man who is afraid of danger yet embraces it when he is in the eye of the storm. Someone who is both the most polite and most disgusting individual. In short I want to Grigory Potemkin.

Summer School is a terrible movie, do not watch it... unless you need an exemplarily bad comedy. I saw this movie at the Texas Theater with my friend Bob and we thought we were gonna see a bad 80s comedy that just had stupid humor, but this was just bad. There's only so many times I could say, "that's not funny" or "a girl trying to have sex with her teacher isn't funny it's creepy." And yet this was one of the most enjoyable experiences I could have with a friend. I watch bad cinema not for the movie but for the camaraderie of my friends. A bad movie is a traumatic experience one that can be shared with others rather than kept to one's self. Because of this in-jokes develop and another successful mission is under your belt. And is why I will now keep using this song as a calling card for those who have seen it.
