Can we talk about the time…
Norm MacDonald slugged Ian Maxtone-Graham in the face?

"Now, I may not have a lot of 'credentials,' or 'training,' but I do have a PhD in caring."

I blame the government.
I blame Dubya… and Mayor Nagin… and FEMA. Fuck you, you fucking fucks.

I hate to be a pedantic asshole (ok, not really), but it's "Now I'm going down to Emmitt's Fix-it, to *fix* Emmitt." HOW COULD YOU LEAVE OUT THAT GLORIOUS PUN?!?!

Ouch
After seeing clips of this on The Soup, you couldn't pay me to watch an entire episode. This was a great read. Thanks for taking one for the team, Pierce.

Tin & Eric & Terry Crews: The Movie
You heard him, T&E. This needs to happen, ASAP.

No, I will not buy your hemp necklace.
Any rock music from the last 15-20 or so years aimed exclusively at a teenage stoner audience - This includes Phish, Incubus (maybe excluding SCIENCE), 311, etc.

Brilliant Idea!
Absolutely brilliant! Protesting a funeral that will no doubt be attended by hundreds of Metalheads, who would love nothing more than to beat the ever-loving shit out of a bunch of psychotic fundamentalist Christians. I'll keep an eye out for savage beatings on the news that day.

You have officially lived up to your name, HDB.

Scott's finest moment: the look on his face when he says "He'll see the big board!" Also, the tumble he takes mid-rant. Beautiful.

It's been done.

Mike D'Angelo also hinged his entire argument on the false premise that people think shooting the scene in one take is closer to mimicking the behavior of the human eye than using traditional cuts. So I'd take anything he says with a grain of salt.
