A coworker recommended I watch this video for the “Neti Pot,” a decidedly modern health maintenance device. Maybe it shouldn’t, but it cracks me up.
Carmen send me this incredibly weird, somewhat funny video/music tribute to my old home town. I’m still not sure what to think.
Here you go, “Baba.” While investigating used guitars on Craigslist for a coworker, I found this priceless listing:
I have an Oscar Schmidt 6-string acoustic guitar, Model# OG-2N. It is like new and in great condition. It was a gift from an ex, he was supposed to teach me how to play, but like every other part of our relationship, he was lazy. Also included is a molded SKB case, (price tag on it says $104.95), KORG chromatic tuner, and a lovely maroon-flowered strap. I am told that this is a great guitar for beginners, but honestly I really know nothing about it. I did a little ebay research and similar guitars are listed at this price…seems fair to me.
I can not provide you with a picture because I threw the camera at him during a fight. Maybe with your money I will buy a new one.
Please get this thing out of my house. Makes a great gift for the right girl, just not me, I wanted to learn the banjo.
Cash only please.
Cash only indeed.
Today’s post on Scott Adams’s blog is hilarious. It refers to this article in The Telegraph about a man caught and prosecuted for fornicating with a bicycle.
Yeah, that’s right.
What kills me about the article is the photo of the culprit. You’d expect a mug shot or a frantic paparazzi capture of a shamed man hiding from the press, right? Wrong. It almost looks like he hired a publicist and scheduled a photo shoot. He’s not hiding anything. I’m looking forward to showing my support for him at the one-man Bike Pride parade, certainly just around the corner.
This week’s edition of Basic Instructions is hilarious.
Thanks again to Scott Adams for another great laugh. His post today introduced his readers to a great web comic, Basic Instructions by the soon-to-be-famous Scott Meyer. In particular, he directs readers to this incredibly funny strip about disguising a yawn.
I have this problem all the time. I think it started in college where I was very frequently too tired for my 8:00 AM classes. Lecturing became a mental cue for me to yawn. Now whenever I’m in a situation involving someone talking to me at length, I’ll have the uncontrollable urge to yawn. It’s a frequent problem in meetings.
I must be terrible at hiding it, because Amy always catches me trying and says, “Just let it out; you look ridiculous!” I feel just like the guy in the strip.
Update: He must be getting more traffic than he’s used to, so the site is slow. Wait for it; it’s worth it.
Check out the video below to take your mind off of yesterday’s disaster.
Am I still dreaming? Did April Fool’s Day move to July 5? Did The Onion buy Reuters? I can’t otherwise explain this headline.
Any fan of The Office should subscribe to Creed Thoughts, which you will not actually find at www.creedthoughts.gov.www\creedthoughts. There you will find gems like
They should rename the Virgin Islands. That was an expensive mistake.
If you aren’t down with The Office, I highly recommend you rent/Netflix season 2 immediately. You’ll thank me.
Gena just sent me the clip below from Family Guy, and I can’t stop watching it. I don’t know much about the show, but the bit is incredibly funny in and of itself. Not only that, but it provides brilliantly meaningless retorts to discussions of movies that everyone else seems to love but you do not (e.g. Crash, The Green Mile, Tombstone).
“It insists upon itself.”
“Fine, fine actor; did not like the movie.”
“I love The Money Pit. That is my answer to that statement.”
