I don’t know if anyone is a fan of Kids In the Hall, but there was a sketch that always made me laugh because on a certain level I can relate to it. Two white trash lovers (male played by Bruce McCulloch and female played by Mark McKinney) who always argued and bickered. The short male has a big case of Short Man Syndrome and always got into fights with much larger men. One sketch involved him taking on a huge mountain of a man and each time the big guy would hurt Bruce’s character. Anyway, it got so bad that everyone (including the Scott Thompson’s Queen–the Brit Queen not Buddy Cole) told him to “STAY DOWN!”, but he’d never listen.

At this point, Jim Cramer is Bruce McCulloch’s character.
“STAY DOWN!”

Wow… with that somber musical background how could I not be convinced? I’m Joining Westboro Baptist as soon as I get off work!

Fucking descriptivist. There are some who have standards. Sniff.

And their point is? You check the dictionary before you decide whether to propose? When you think you might be gay? Why don’t these fuckwits just Go Galt already and get the fuck off the stage.

I hear that Caligutard’s ghostwriter has received the shittiest job in bookdom: having to poke and prod that half-wit until he barfs up more than two memories that aren’t inadvertent war crimes confessions in order to fulfill a seven figure book deal. Details on who exactly is gonna buy these fully fabricated “memoirs” are yet to be released. Also: Crocodile tears-spilling appearance on Oprah imminent.

Sadly, Eric B and his wife fled down to the county courthouse to divorce immediately citing “humuhsekshal extremists” for cause.

@Original Andrew: Wonder if they’ve considered a graphic novel comic book.

@Nabisco:
What about a Pop Up?

@Original Andrew: The less I see of W, the happier I am.

@rptrcub:

At least no one’s asking anymore why publishing’s gone off a cliff.

I’m going to take a swing here and suggest that our faithful Youtuber here hasn’t been on either end of the physical act of love in a long time.

And, thus: if you don’t play the game, you don’t make the rules. Jackass.

@ManchuCandidate: Or, perhaps, a flip book memorializing the physical comedy stylings of our 43rd president (to include: the pretzel choking incident; the epic Segway fall; the locked door episode; and much, much more). Bonus feature: you can flip it backwards and pretend that none of it ever happened.

@mellbell: You make it sound like he was our Keaton, our Chaplan, or at the least our Chevy Chase.

@mellbell:

LOLZ! That would be my preference!
