I'll defend Swamp Thing here as "camp awesomeness" also, but I do have to admit that I've never seen it as an adult. I didn't understand the concept of "camp" when I was a kid; I just appreciated stuff like Swamp Thing and Flash Gordon on their own awesome merits.

Teach her a few other words while you're at it, would ya PW? Either that or just leave the ball gag on permanently.

Def Funeral Jam?

Come on, we can't give all the awards to men, that's just sexist. Surely there's an award in there for Liza Minelli?

I hope the whole thing is just Glover and Morgan exchanging the following lines:
DG: "I'm gettin' to old for this shit!"
TM: "I'm gettin' too old for this ship!"

I hear ya Maddening. I guess when I think of a kids' award show I imagine the nominees are all family-friendly dreck like Miley Cirus and the Jonas Brothers. And fuck that guy from Band of Horses… I suspect he's probably more fucked up than Chris Brown in some way that we don't know about yet.

I'm having trouble hating the parents on this one also. Mocking this award show (or any award show) in general is always appropriate, but I think the "awards are based on talent, not character" argument works better in a debate about whether certain drug-addled miscreants belong in the baseball hall of fame. For a…

D.A.R.E. to keep kids off thugs!

I hope he gets sentenced to hard time in your apartment.

Looks like T-Pain and Kid Rock shop at the same hat store. I think it's the one in the airport gift shop.

Oh shut up you pretty, pretty princess!

American Recordings
I wasn't a big fan of his American Recordings stuff during the 90's/early 00's. I never heard the albums in full, but I was exposed to his covers of then-current hits like "Rusty Cage" and "Hurt", which felt like desperate attempts at relevancy. Later, I heard his cover of Gordon Lightfoot's "If…

I deserve to be mocked for that Leno-level humor, Alcing, but I must insist that you respect Fozzie's authority on the subject of spelling "wocka."

Mass Walkout
My catholic parents don't invite me to church anymore for fear I'll stage a mass walk-out.

Sorry, the AV Club is for Southern, redneck jock types only. Didn't you see the Larry the Cable Guy Roast banner on the way in?

Awww… nobody knows what you're talking about e2p because they deleted me. I guess menstrual humor isn't as universally beloved as I thought (or, of course, it could just be that the comment editor is totally on the rag right now). I was hoping that saying "amirite" would inject sufficient irony to keep anyone from…

Yes, I was going to commend JVS as well, but giving Jorge credit for a clever comment feels somehow redundant. He's a consistently funny fellow, despite his geographical disadvatages. One bone to pick though: we do hockey analogies here, not basketball!

Remember when a commenter calling himself Rothman Prohecy asked about The Mothman Prophecies? And Then Jorge Von Salsa said "dude, I sure as shit remember that movie"? Remember that? That was awesome.

Good stuff, Penguin Suit. Big time lolz over here.

Period caplets…. little, crimson, different.
