I can't get on board with Paul F. Tompkins. I listened to an old Comedy Death Ray a few days ago where he was on as Ice T and it was atrocious.

The great thing about JB Smoove isn't so much what he says as how he says it. Any other actor saying "the chair is a fuck machine" and it wouldn't be nearly as funny (also, "them titties is a blabbermouth" from earlier this season).

this post was fine with me, as long as you realize that no one cares

You can't have a party without ICE

…had a little Chihuahua named Carlos that had some kind of skin disease and was totally blind

boff Moore, kill Spurlock, marry Gore

that's funny because I asked him his name and in a dark brown voice he said Lola

New gimmick poster?
Name: ReneeBaio

I didn't even know we were calling him Big Bear.

Stop staring at me with those dead eyes you fucking church bitch

Those tweets have a sort of Jackie Harvey feel to them…especially the first one.
