Some artists claim that the process of drawing art is too technical for them so they can't really get into the art on an erotic level after having drawn it.

Also, Bob Odenkirk for SNL host.

Apparently this was the first time Cletus was given a name, which I think gives the joke a little more pop.

Heh heh, end.

I have been led to believe that Chopin was a man.

No, it's from Jedi. In A New Hope they already knew the Death Star was fully operational. They threaten Leia to get the location of the rebels and then they blow up Alderaan anyway just to be evil. (And Palpatine wasn't even in the first movie.) The fact that it wasn't a complete sphere was the trick, they hadn't

I'm sure Chris Columbus is very sad to hear anyone could be more generic than him.

When I first saw a picture of Justin Bieber, it was a promo in the music section of a Borders, and I thought to myself "why does Ellen Page have a cardboard cutout?"

If Barack Obama is a moderate Republican, then the Democratic Party is full of moderate Republicans. (Which I suppose could be said to be true, but using "moderate Republican" to refer to a category which is found primarily in the Democratic Party can be misleading.) Barack Obama isn't a full-throated progressive, but

When Apple Computer was a young company Apple Corps sued them and they settled and promised not to enter the music industry. Then when Apple started making computers that could play music, Apple Corps sued them again and they settled that Apple Computer would be able to sell computers that played music, but stay away

I really don't think government is to blame per se. The whole point of a penny is to be a very small amount of value (increasingly low because of inflation but that's an intentional policy decision where the cost of pennies is a pretty minor consideration) and it's just difficult to make a piece of metal that cheap.

Heh heh, box.

Bing users are the oppressed minority of our day. They struggle under the adversity of living in a society which does not respect their choice of web search engine. But I dream of a day where the Bing user is treated with the same dignity and basic humanity that Google users have come to expect.

They're prominent breasts, so I think people confuse the fact that they're well shaped and very visible with mere largeness. Properly sizing breasts can be a bit non-intuitive, (it's not as simple as a one dimensional scale of small to big) so I think people have trouble distinguishing breasts which are very "out

I don't follow the NFL at all, but reading through this article I thought to myself "Denver Broncos? I know a Simpsons quote appropriate to that!" And then O'Neal swooped in to snag that opportunity.

South Park is totally racist. But it's what people expect of the show so whatever.

I'm pretty sure the joke is that there's a sign change from the original saying.

It comes from a world you might not understand.

That scene felt like some of the most obvious irony in the movie. He had just gotten out of club fed and was giving a motivational speech. "Badasses" don't do that sort of thing. There's a certain appeal in doing horrible things and getting away with it with only nominal punishment, but it's not badass.
