Now that the guy from Smashmouth is deceased, who gets custody of Guy Fieri? My gut says Nickelback? He’s not churchy enough for Scott Creed, he’s not goth enough for Evan Vesence. I feel lik...

It would be wonderful if you learned Spanish but don’t feel hablagated. I wonder if on Howard The Duck’s planet they had a hotel chain called “Nest Western”? Chains & products usi...

If you’re the understudy to the back-up dancers, are you a back-up back-up dancer? I’mma stop calling it a “belly” and call it my “man-curves” and see if the redefinition redeems it as se...

Wes Anderson presumes the existence of Eas Anderson, as well as Nor Anderson and Sou Anderson, and I wanna see what little kinda matchbox worlds those all create as well. The weirdest thing t...

Depleted uranium is outta style, we should armor our tanks with old Nokia phones. Why did we call them “Sadaam Hussein’s imaginary nuclear weapons” when we could’a called them “baath bombs”? ...

A literary mash-up called THE ISLAND OF DOCTOR THOREAU where instead of vivisection, the doctor’s experiments are in convincing people the island is a lot further from civilization than it actu...

A natural peanut butter company should do some kind of cheeky “no-stir November” ad campaign. VAMP VAMP / MACK VLAD’LL MAKE YA / VAMP VAMP / VLADDY MACK’LL MAKE YA/ VAMP VAMP How did the “c...

Like in so many of my dreams, part of my clothes just disappeared, I guess I slipped them off to do a quick poem to cover for a guy to tune his guitar, as my father taught me, to perform in my ...

Sometimes I miss DVD commentary tracks but then I remember they just call them “podcasts” now. Does anyone else worry that the only time they’re their true self is when they’re alone with the...

That very brief period where Steve Guttenberg was a bankable film star, I sure hope someone said “He’s a Guttenberg printing press… FOR BOFFO BOX OFFICE MONEY!” While still developing in its ...

A terrible thing would be mashing up Korn and Coldplay into Kornplay. I will only accept the reboot of The Office if they retool it into being the behind the scenes of the business offices of...

An East Coast rapper and a West Coast rapper should fake a feud and then it all turn out to be a publicity stunt for Impossible Burger because that too would be fake beef. The day will come ...

One of those awful dating reality shows but along the way, to earn the money for really fancy or expensive dates, they have to answer trivia or do physical challenges where they have to pull a ...

I kind of want The Weeknd to buy the Bernies Dot Com website so his email can be Weeknd At Bernies Dot Com. Our representatives shouldn’t be preening fancy idiots pretending they’re better th...

Great. Instead of sleeping, my brain is masking up The Scorpions “Rock You Like A Hurricane” and Bob Dylan’s “Hurricane”. Fine. Great. There is definitely a viable evolutionary advantage to ...

“Show About Minor Star Wars Expanded Universe Character Who Didn’t Need More Back Story #2957” just doesn’t wow me into a watch and I’m sorry, I know this makes me a terrible Internet Person, b...

Every time some fringe group predicts an End-Time and it inevitably passes, I like to imagine that there was a Rapture, like seven or eight years ago, but like only four or five people qualifie...

I look back on Bowie’s lyrics and how much of his work was as kind of a modern musical de Tocqueville, an outsider’s eye writing about America and understanding it better than we can ourselves ...

Say what you will about Beanie or Funko but at least you receive a physical item. Even when you finally realize that speculative investment is a dumber form of gambling, you still have an ornam...

Move to Montana’s capital. Start a restaurant called “Helena’s Ham Basket”. It will be worth it, if only for the meme. This push to re-invent Martha Stewart as a feminist icon is so bizarre. ...

EMPATHCIZE! It’s like AEROBECIZE or JAZZERCIZE, except we just put on spandex and try our best to understand the feelings others. Scratch the surface of anyone laboring so hard to live a perf...

I will post every time I hear a person’s name that can be sang with the same rhythm as “Eleanor Rigby” and they’ll have to take this stupid phone outta my cold dead heads to stop me. An acous...

Why say “that mentat is practically tattooed by the Juice of Sapho!” when you can say “that Thufir Hawat, he’s a real think-stained wretch!” A drag performer reads to children under 30 pounds...

I now want a story where Columbo is the man who sent Hannibal Lechter to prison and, like, Hannibal wasn’t even mad, he saw through Columbo’s playing-dumb act in the first two minutes he met hi...
