Metapost: First Friday comedic comments of the week!
Post Content
Hello everybody! It’s the first Friday of the month, so you should come to my live comedy show, The Internet Read Aloud, if you’re anywhere near Los Angeles tonight! I don’t like to spoil the surprises, but allow me to whisper onto the wind the phrase “bitcoin failures!”
Here’s the Facebook event with all the relevant info!
And now, here’s the always relevant comment of the week!
“The point of AA is to stop drinking with the help of a higher power, not in defiance of it.” –grsblvnyk
And the very funny runners up!
“Look, Honey, I’m Ugly Crystal! Ugly Crystal! It’s not much, but at least it’s an identity. Don’t take that away from me. It’s literally the only thing I have.” –Joe Blevins
“In a refrigerator you can find dead birds without feathers or even skin, cold as ice. Are we having a glimpse into the Perfesser’s dark fantasies?” –Ettore
“Gil scowls grimly and says, ‘Gary is pushing your son toward music,’ much as if he were saying, ‘Gary is pushing your son toward heroin.’ Really, Gil, what do you have against music? I suppose classical music is too artsy-fartsy and feminine, whereas jazz and rock lead to depraved activities such as s-x. It’s much better for a teenager to stick with activities that lead to healthy, masculine concussions.” –jana_ch
“We don’t want specialization. In fact, we’re getting rid of naming the positions like ‘center’, ‘power forward’ and all of that. We are going to train the kids to swarm the ball and score when they can. Classical economics dictates that everyone acting in their own self interest brings a greater result for the whole, right? Well, it’s a whole lot easier to coach that way, so I’m certainly acting in my own self interest.” –Hogenmogen
“I hope that comical spring noise accompanies Spider-Man on his entire parkour-run to the hospital.” –TheDiva
“When you have a patient with a gaping wound, it’s always wise to SPROINNGG him for miles to the hospital! It saves so much in costs on any further medical treatment.” –seismic-2
“The only thing that can bring joy into pluggers’ blighted lives is the memory of past cruelties they inflicted on others.” –Peanut Gallery
“I assume Mark’s referring there to famed archaeologist Howard Carter, and ‘old’ refers not to the length of their friendship but rather the fact that Carter was born in 1874.” –Truckosaurus
“I’m beginning to think true love is a myth, at least for me! It’s like, you cheat on one lousy girlfriend, and suddenly the fates inexplicably conspire to make her no longer want to be with you! I must be cursed.” –Dan
“We can all sympathize with the difficulty of finding high-quality journalism to masturbate to.” –Spunky the Wonder Squid
“Sure, he kisses the oven mitt, then fucks the pork roast. All about balance!” –pugfuggly
“When Good Food Goes Bad tells the tragic story of various meat birds in the Shoeverse and their increasing violent attempts to escape their fates. The Perfesser is right to be depressed.” –Voshkod
“It’s remarkable how Blondie can cook an entire roast in a kitchen with no countertops, cabinets, or sink, but still a little weird that she’s serving it on a tiny table with just one chair. Dagwood must be so grateful because he’s about to devour 10 pounds of beef by himself, while the rest of the family watches in amazement.” –BigTed
