That Bobcat Goldthwait article
It seems like really, really bad advice, especially for those early in their show-business careers. Bobcat worked for 20 years doing what he seems to think is shit work. Voice-overs, small character roles in TV and movies, doing a much-beloved stand-up character. I’m sure it was absolutely horrible (I bet it was not absolutely horrible), but it gave him opportunities. And then in 2003 he was...

2012 Summer Olympics Preview Part 1: Swimming
After the 6-month weed and Axe body spray bender he went on immediately following the sex crimes he committed on all competitors in Beijing (which inspired an episode of Law & Order S.V.U. guest-starring Dane Cook), Michael Phelps has spent the past 3 years further shaping his weird, triangle-shaped body to his horrifying isosceles goal. Just last month he visited Guatemala’s #1...

Brian and I were guests on Andy Rocco’s funny podcast. Brian, one of the nicest guys in the world, talks about a time he totally kicked a guy’s ass. I talk about how I was expelled in High School a month into my freshman year. And we both talk about Newsadoozies!
Speaking of Newsadoozies…We have a show tonight at 8pm at UCB! We’re paired with Naked People! It’s going to be a...

I witnessed a shirtless man punch a truck before 1 PM.

Agreed.
I was nervous about being in DC on St. Patrick’s Day, but then was shocked (SHOCKED!) to witness not one single act of drunken horribleness. Lot of folks wearing green, even a crazy costume (worn by an adorable Filipino mom), but everyone was enjoying the spring weather.
I forgot that in some parts of the...
The critics are already in!

Broadway World says tickets “can be reserved at http://newyork.ucbtheatre.com/shows/view/3015!”
Come see what all the fuss is about!
Cheer up, Limbaugh. There's good news.
Not every advertiser is fleeing from your show:
Meanwhile, SeekingArrangement.com, a company that bills itself “the world’s largest sugar daddy and sugar baby dating website,” announced its decision to start advertising on Limbaugh’s show late Tuesday.

CBS thinks my tweets are news →
CBS News:
Brian Glidewell tweeted: “When the announcer said “Ladies and Gentlemen, Morgan Freeman,” I 90% expected Billy Crystal in blackface.”
They don’t note that I tweeted that BEFORE the Sammy Davis Jr. blackface because of Billy Crystal’s history of blackface impressions.

williebhines said: Gethard asked me what the most 90s song was, and he suggested Flaming Lips’ “She Don’t Use Jelly” but I think this beats it.
Wow, good question. I tentatively think I’d go with “Flagpole Sitta” by Harvey Danger. Tempted to say “I’m Only Happy…
“Hey Sandy.” The end.
Had to point out this great moment from Modern...
Claire: What is wrong with you?
