What Warhol understood, but didn’t say out-loud as no one back then would have believed him, was that those fifteen minutes we were all indeed about to get would be the worst fifteen minutes...

The Henson Company’s personell department would’ve technically been H.R. Puppet Stuff. Maybe the Great Filter of the Fermi Paradox is social media. Every civilization that got close to r...

If Doogie Howser had been a therapist instead of a medical doctor, it could’ve been called “Doogie Howser, Child Psychologist”. A French light beer called “Oui Oui”. An Applebees ad ...

If you mix pumpkin spice beer with lemonade, that’s a Boo Radler, delicious enough to kill a mockingbird. The next step up is to mash up public domain properties with pop stars. “Steambo...

A minotaur version of Skeletor called SKELETAUR. Why call it a “honey bun” when you can call it “B-Roll”? The Steamboat Willie public domain rom-com called DREAMBOAT WILLIE. Why ...
m22
Why say “sitting pillow” when you can say “stool softener”? A future where “flipping” is the actual F-word, because everyone realized how cynically dehumanizing real estate flipping was ...

A Spanish Irish fusion restaurant called Tapas The Morning. There is comedy in pretending you confuse the words “balaclava” “baklava” and “balalaika” but it’s admittedly a niche. A s...

There is not a border crisis, there is not an immigration crisis, there is a humanitarian crisis and a crisis of lack of empathy. There are people suffering and there is our moral imperative...

“Did you ever hear the tale of Doc Plagueis The Mad? They say he could use the Force to control… time itself…” I just saw the grossest sounding phrase in the history of the language in a...
prompt: shady, title: barnum and bail-outs
It wasn’t always like this, y’know. Shysters trying to sell you horse-dewormer for a respiratory infection or procedurally-generated pictures of Christ with sixteen fingers and four elbows and t...

A parody of “American Woman” about AN AMERICAN WEREWOLF IN LONDON. You don’t “have Taco Bell for dinner”. You might eat it. You may well consume it. Your body will absorb it and attempt ...

COBRA’s Weather Dominator implies the existence of G.I. JOE’s Weather Submissive. She loved Kermit so much, when he was in physical need, even if she had the worst headache in the world,...

You could easily start calling Easter “Furry Halloween”. It’d be funny! The problem is, you might give them the idea to take the idea seriously. The problem with good satire is it’s so close...

A next-gen video game about THE FACTS OF LIFE could involve a 3-D Tootie. The most scientifically perfect strap-on and it’s called The Bigs-Hoseon. All you need for an “angry” review...

Shittin’ in the mornin’ sun / I’ll be shittin’ when the evenin’ comes / Watching the shits roll in / Then I watch ‘em roll away again, yeah / I’m shittin’ on the dock of the bay / Watchin’ t...

They’ve had so many tie-ins at McDonalds over the years but we’ve never gotten the “Egg McMuppet” and that’s just a shame. The Sausage Egg McMuppet could be MADE out of the pig woman! No...

Wendy’s had the lock on “eating barely-acceptable chili in a solarium” market and they just threw it away. When you have a segment cornered, you gotta hold onto it for dear life, but no. The...

There is something deeply unnerving about the idea of being treated in a hospital named after a chain of casinos. Like, you’re just cosmically asking for it. If you look north and sudden...

If you want to be accepted as a tree hugger, you need to immerse yourself in poplar culture. If Kenny Loggins last word aren’t “im.. all right… don’t nobody… worry bout me…” he will have...

One-hundred years of Disney, built on the exploitation of the business unsaavy Ub Iwerks, who did most of the work while Walt took the money and the credit. If Steamboat Willie goes back to ...
