and the award goes to…
Feb 4th
Since it’s been over a month since I wrote anything at all, this is going to be rusty. Â I’ve never really understood the expression “shake the rust off” because in my experience with crappy cars, if its vibrating so much that rust is falling off the thing, it’s probably about twenty seconds from breaking or exploding. Â Thus my past experiences are making me nervous for what might happen to my brain if I try to hard. Â I’ve already alerted those in close physical proximity to me that if I start shaking too much, they should flee the area.

caption contest giveaway winnar
Feb 24th
Sorry for the delay in getting this post out there, but real life actually happened yesterday and I didn’t have time to post the winner. Â But don’t you worry, because there totally is one and I’m not just making this up as I go along or anything.
Anyhow, in the end it came down to two folks who submitted multiple entries. Here are my two favorite ones, and I just couldn’t decide between them.
Travis‘ comment put Lonely Island in my head all day, which is awesome. Â Marnie’s comment made me laugh and mental ewwww at the same time, which is equally More >
caption contest and first giveaway
Feb 12th
Awhile ago I had that little caption contest going, but since I couldn’t offer any sort of reward for being clever the interest kind of faded. Â Now I have found my first prize for the victor, and let me tell you it’s a doozy.
This contest will be open for about a week or so, basically until I feel that it’s over and I’m going to send the prize out to whichever caption makes me laugh the most. Â I’ll do a last call for entries the day before it closes on Twitter, so if you’re not following me already go ahead More >
blank tuesday #5
Dec 29th
It’s back and better than a shirtless, mulleted redneck with hay in it’s mouth; blank tuesday returns with a vengeance.
I apologize if anyone suffered traumatic nightmares or daydreams or really any sort of mental image caused by the visceral horror that was last week’s image.
It was hard to pick a winner this week, mainly because this idiot could pretty much say anything. There isn’t an insane enough combination of words that this guy wouldn’t say.
And the winner is:
Daffy may or may not have giant lips, have a hairspray and post-it addiction, or pee on people’s feet. One of those More >
blank tuesday #3
Dec 15th
Once again, my followers have proved that they are funnier than me, and better looking. While I’m not 100% sure, I’m pretty positive that one of the men in this picture is Nicolas Sarkozy, President of the French Republic. While I can’t tell you anything about any of his policies (c’mon it’s France, who cares?) I can tell you that he is very short and often stands on a box behind the podium. You can’t make this stuff up.
Now to declare the winner for tuesday #2 before moving on to this week’s contest. It was a close race down to More >
dewey defeats truman
Sep 15th
The polling places are closed and the results are in. It was close but the results are final and binding, because those are the rules I just made up. Unless my team starts sucking, and I feel that the mojo is off, and a team name change is in order. Maybe I’ll even move the team to Detroit; I hear they haven’t had an NFL team there for a couple years.
“FRAGILE PORCELAIN MICE†is now my team, and you’ll be happy to know that they won their first game without even being named. Now I have an equally important task: More >

Alright ladies and gentlemen, the nominees are in and it’s time to pick. I received a bunch of suggestions through email, and some through other sources, then they went through a rigorous screening process (not really, that’s a lie) to appear before you today. You can vote once per day, and voting will be closed on Tuesday Morning.

On Sunday, my old college chums and I will engage in our annual ritual of our fantasy football draft. For anyone who has not been involved in one of these, the atmosphere consists of drinking, making fun of your friends in the same old way, eating pizza, and coming up with new ways to make fun of your friends.
One of the most important aspects of fantasy football is your team name. This is your chance to prove how clever you are and possibly stick it to one of your friends at the same time.
For the past two and a half More >
