playa hatin' (or, let's get a few things straight)

Penny Arcade is not funny.
Dave Barry stopped being funny around the time Reagan left office.
Achewood is not funny.
The Onion was funny until they started repeating themselves sometime around `97.  They'll occasionally have a good zinger, but most of their stuff is telegraphed to hell and back.
Jerk City is not funny.
Sinfest is funny until you realize it's a adolescent ripoff of Bloom County with the main character being two-thirds Milo, one third (Watterson's) Calvin.
Something Positive is not funny.
David Letterman is funny only when compared to Jay Leno.
McSweeney's is not funny.

Oh, for the love of pete, "to me" and "IMNSHO"? This isn't some sissy-pants mailing list, this is MY FRIGGIN' JOURNAL.

And you're talking bats? Bring it, milquetoast. I'll introduce you to Opie.

I don't know if "funny" is the right adjective, but I think there is a place in the world for something that can give us the line "When I want your opinion I will cut out your brain and eat it and crap your opinion back into your skull".

See, that was a funny line, but that cartoon was very poorly paced. It's like listening to 15 seconds of "Friends".

"This isn't some sissy-pants mailing list, this is MY FRIGGIN' JOURNAL."

So saith the King of Lilliput. All below bow down ...

*Hannibal ruffles Ron's hair playfully*

You also know I promised Paul I would never kill and/or maim you that summer we all shared an apartment in ... Flour? King? One of those buildings.

Ack, it was King. You dredged that memory... pray you do not dredge any further.

And would you just give up this anonymous prancing and just make yourself a LiveJournal account (https://www.livejournal.com/create.bml)? Sheesh!

Another web/email address? I was mad when I got addicted to the soon-to-be-Fox-owned MySpace. I'll take it under advisement.
