I had stopped doing the YouTube Tuesday feature because 1) I reserved the right to stop whenever I wanted when I created it and 2) they weren’t generating much traffic. However, a dedicated reader pointed out to me that she missed the posts. We all know that I’ll shamelessly do just about anything to get some hits so here we go!
Sooooo, now I have to scroll through my magical musical playlist and find some music with which to torture you. Here we go! Continue reading
Fictionalized violence. Does it cause violence in the real world? Hardly. Does watching Comedy Central make one funny? Of course not. Does watching The Natural make one a star baseball player? Don’t be ridiculous.
In my experience, violence is either a learned or innate behavior. People are either born violent or raised in a violent home. I was raised in a home with no violence. I’ve seen hundreds of violent movies. I’ve played thousands of hours of violent video games. I’ve read hundreds of books containing violence. Despite all of that, the last time I was in a fight was in elementary school. I despise real life violence. It’s pointless. It’s barbaric. It’s animalistic. I do not find entertainment in the likes of UFC, MMA, boxing, or hockey as a lot of people seem to. They love watching violence. They love watching people beat the crap out of each other. I honestly get a little nauseous when I see a fight. I don’t understand how it can ever come to that. I loathe confrontation. Sometimes, though, I understand that it’s unavoidable, but it hasn’t been for me for my entire adult life. To date, anyhow. Continue reading
Dearest Stuph Maphia™, it is time for another awards ceremony. You may be tired of them. Even more so considering that 4 hours of rich people and idiocy was just broadcast to our ignorant nation the other night. But fear not, unlike that awards ceremony, there will be no boobs song or no one tripping on their dress going up the steps. Hmmm…maybe this won’t be as entertaining as I originally thought. Oh well. The show must go on! And so it shall! Onward! And stuph™! Continue reading
Good morning, Stuph Mafia™. Do you know what today is? You had better…
Time to make fun of the gap in Mike Tyson’s teeth right to his face?
No, dear reader, that would be stupid. We’re going to do something infinitely more fun.
We’re going to drink beer before liquor?
Um, no. I don’t even know why I ask you this every week. *sigh*
It’s time for…
Woohoo!!
What role does music play in your life?
I think the fairer question, and likely easier answer, is what role doesn’t music play in my life? As far back as I can remember, music has been a huge part of my being, and a stabilizer in my life. When I’m sad, I turn to music. When I’m happy, I turn to music. When I drive, I must have music. When I clean, I must have music. When I work, and my job allows it, I must have music. Music, music, music. Are you getting the drift? I heart music. With a capital “H”.
Brother Jon, or BroJo for short, is a little flustered that my Unshitty™ bid for the Le Clown Official Fanclub™ kicked his bid’s ass. In a meager attempt to “up his game,” he has posted yet another, um, post try to win the favor of his Magnificence™.
I’m confident that Le Clown, much like most everyone else, is not impressed. Even though his attempts are insufficient, I feel compelled to respond if for no other reason than to show him up one more time.
That is indeed the question, Peter.
Le Clown is…wait…what? What do you mean you don’t know who Le Clown is? Blasphemer! Heretic! Other synonyms!
Honestly, I didn’t know who Le Clown was until a few months ago. Then I came across this Unshitty™ post by the hilarious and ubiquitous Speaker7. In the post, Speaker7 interviewed Le Clown, and asked the hard-hitting questions all of his carnies™ wanted the answers to.
What? Carnies? They’re like roadies, except they follow Le Clown. And that’s way better than following some stupid band. Fuck bands. Why follow a band when you can follow Le Clown?
His Magnificence™.
Yesterday Becca of 25tofly hit publish on this Unshitty™ post giving her dedicated Flysters™ (one of which I am) a look behind the scenes at the making of a typical blog post. It was an intriguing and insightful look into what goes into a blog made of laughter, wit, puns, and long johns.
We had the following exchange in the comments. Continue reading
In a humbling turn of events, I find that I require your assistance. Back in July I started a feature unoriginally dubbed Twindaddy: Blunt Life Coach™. I only posted two entries into this series before my hiatus and I’ve been really wanting to get back to it because, hey, being an asshole is fun.
For my first two posts I pilfered questions from Dear Abby™, but I’d like not to have to do that any longer. So I have a favor to ask of you, dearest reader, please submit your own questions for Blunt Life Coach™ so that he may answer them brutally, honestly, and hilariously. Or attempt to do so.
So, please, dearest reader, assist me with my feeble attempts to be funny. And stuph.
On Tuesday, December 18, 2012, YouTube Tuesday was born. Becca of 25toFly bestowed upon the world a most wonderful regifted post in regards to Tuesdays, specifically how bland they are. I responded with a YouTube video of Tuesday’s Gone by Lynyrd Skynyrd. She came back with Tuesday’s Heartbreak by Stevie Wonder. We went back and forth a few times until I won our contest by posting a David Bowie video, because evidently she thinks David Bowie rules. Or some such. I can’t really explain it.
Becca then dubbed Tuesday YouTube Tuesday, and since I’m a dedicated Flyster™ I’ve decided to carry on that tradition every Tuesday until I don’t anymore. I posted some videos last Tuesday, which was Christmas, but I was out of commission yesterday due to illness. I apologize. But better late than never, right? Yeah, that’s the ticket.
This week’s theme will be Terrible Terry Tate. Because Terry Tate is fucking awesome. So without further ado, here are yesterday’s videos that I indiscriminately picked out for your viewing pleasure. Today.
I hope you enjoyed them, or else the pain train is comin’! Whoa!
Oh, if you don’t read 25toFly you’re missing out. Becca is an extremely gifted and hilarious writer and you would be doing yourself a great service by reading her work.
