the man child was great. HA-CHA! when he slid out of his mother to be rebord was the most spit-the-spaghetti-on-your-futon moment of that season.

fucking adult swim has started asking to prove you're a cable subscriber to watch episodes on their website. fucking lame.

Yeah, I used to be a salesman. Tough racket.

when?

You fucked a junkyard cat?

Yes. Knockemstiff carries notes of influences from, well, his influences, notably Denis Johnson. But Pollock is no mere miserablist trading in cheap shock (i.e. Palahniuk), the stories in Knockemstiff carry a real human weight. I agree with the review above that the paradox of his writing is that it is strangely

YO YO YO
I DO DRUGS - A SERIOUS AMOUNT OF DRUGS
DID I MENTION THAT I AM AWESOME? WELL I AM
IN ADDITION, I DO DRUGS, YO. EDGY EDGY DRUGS.

story after starkly drawn story to stick with you, like it or not. This sounds like a roadtrippin' version of that, which, awl-right.

on DMX
Is the Dog in anything good, and / or is he actually good in anything?

doesn't affect AVClub, eh?
Yeah well it still fucking sucks donkey balls. First my real news goes pay-ish (nytimes) and now I've got to fucking pay for my fake news, too? Fucking fuck! My fuck! The fucks of fucking!

THIS MOVIE
is GREAT. Don't think of it as the new PotA movie, think of it as Angry Monkey World: the Movie. Also, bring whiskey and your asshole friends.

I know my girlfriend is never around lately, but see, she's been living in Toronto right now, um, working on her MFA. She's really hot - I'm sure you guys will meet her at some point.

Hand him the Stale Beer!

dont forget the wax museum! or the wax house or whatever it was called. hilton takes a pole through the eye and the big wax house melts. thats all i remember.

Is there a word for the opposite of right? Because that's what I want to say right now.

No, Shark! This movie is funny as hell, the music is actually good, and it gets better on repeat viewings - you don't want NONE of this shit!

he's really great, something of a hero around here in Iowa City. Had the pleasure of playing pool with him a few times, was a completely down-to-earth and genuine guy. I'm very happy to see him getting some broader exposure.

I'm talking specifically, but not exclusively, about Bad Santa. Many, many funny things don't need to be 'translated' because they are basically universal. Is that better? (shit, why am i feeding the trolls)

sweet!
I enjoy things that are both annual and yearly.

"cultural comedy doesn't translate"
That's bullshit. I see no reason a German or a Filipino would fail to see the humor in, say, Bad Santa. I could be wrong, but Billy Bob drunkenly smashing the holy shit out of fake reindeer in front of children is, much like big old farts, universally funny.
