This is the funniest thing I’ve seen in awhile.
An interesting thing…if you remove Garfield’s thought balloons, it goes from an unfunny comic to a rather sad, poignant story about a lonely man who has wasted his life talking to his cat.
Oh how true.
Jon seems crazy to be talking to his cat like that.

Let me start off by saying that I’m the kind of guy who feels he needs to give a shoutout every now and then: when the system works.
Last Sunday’s Academy Awards ceremony marked the first time in eight years that I paid any attention to the Oscars. After all, we think the whole thing is […]

Overheard at ASU outisde of COOR 170.
College Student: Just stop it.
Presumably the Father: *fixing son’s collar*
Me: *laugh*
Student: Dude, that guy is totally laughing at me.
Father: He’s laughing with you.
Student: I’m not laughing!
Father: That’s because you have no fucking sense of humor. *pause* Jackass.

I’ve seen and heard of people doing a lot of weird things in their cars during the morning commute, so I thought I’d take a moment to let you in on a revelation I had today:
Pouring cereal into a bowl is really hard when you’re trying to make a left turn.
Especially if the cereal is […]

Oh man, please tell me I’m the first person to use “American Idle”, that’s golden.
I really don’t have anything to say past that. The guys are on tomorrow, and maybe they’ll do better than the girls, who were either great or crap. I get it, you’re live on television in front of millions of people […]

Site will be down for maintenance from 2:00AM PST to around 4:00AM PST. February 12, 2006.
Dear MySpace:
It’s currently 6:50pm on February 12. What part of 6:50pm falls between 2:00am and 4:00am? No. No really, which fucking part? Also, “AM” is the morning time (latin: “before the sun crossed the line”), so this only […]

Seriously, thank you Canada.
“Stealth” cop car on the prowl
Montreal police have a new tool for their crackdown on traffic offenders. They call it the stealth car. The name “police” is not marked on the hood or trunk - and there are no lights on top. The stealth car has been patrolling Montreal streets for a […]

Once again I find proof that regular people (um, me) are smarter than professionals.
Wait wait wait. Not “smart enough” like “hey, I’m gonna go ahead and do all this work that you can’t seem to finish” but more like “hey, you’re an idiot sometimes, and now everyone knows”.
So here’s my beef:
Wired reported that […]

I’ve launched Loves Threadless.com. It’s a nice little fan-blog for all things Threadless related.
For the uninitiated, Threadless is a really fun shirt company that sells most the shirts I wear.
Take a look, subscribe, and drool over how much hotter the design is over there than here. And then bug Tony to make U\S pretty for […]

Did you guys see the “President” last night? I didn’t. If I wanted to be condescended by someone less intelligent than me I’d go to the indie record store.
I haven’t plugged this nearly enough: visit Jeffrey Rowland in all his glory at OverCompensating, a somewhat daily comic blog about real things that happen in the […]

I took some time to think about Roman Showers this weekend and I think I’ve figured out what they’re all about: when paying homage to the Good Porcilaine Doctor, it’s possible to pass out from oxygen deprivation and most people fall victim to the gasp for breath between office visits. Then I thought about the […]

I played Musical Classes today and switched two religion and psychology classes for different religion and psychology classes that just happen to be offered on the same days at the same times. Jesus must love me.
Speaking of the Only Begotten Boy, and I often do, I got great pleasure in repeatedly walking past a pile […]

The airport in Las Vegas is awesome because there’s free WI-FI and plenty of places to plug in and Lap it up.
I’m on my way home from Concord, California, where I had my Blue Devils camp. I made it, no surprise, and I’m sitting in the Marimba 2 spot. Wootish. It should be a […]

MetaFilter was kind enough to point me to this page, which features a different kind of “Mensa Test.” No longer am I left staring at stupid images of wayward hexagons and prime numbers.
Instead, there is a series of 30-some-odd cryptic questions, such as:
24 H in a D (24 Hours in a Day)
And 64 S on […]
