Chuck Norris Facts

Friday, March 17th, 2006

I first heard them in general chat while playing World of Warcraft. Not understanding their origin, I disregarded it as an isolated incident of player boredom. Then it happened again on an entirely different day. At this point I realized something was amiss, but it wasn’t until a coworker brought it up that I realized [...]

Joe Cartoon

Monday, February 13th, 2006

Some friends of mine recently reminded me of a website that I had all but forgotton. I used to watch Joe Cartoon years ago when I was still in high school. It seems to have become a lot more commercialized since then. Still, they’ve got a lot of funny cartoons, and it seems that my [...]

Darwin Awards

Thursday, January 19th, 2006

People are stupid, and then they die, or so I like to say. I first encountered the term “Darwin Award” back in college. At the time, it sounded legitimate, although from the context I knew it must be a joke. Lo and behold, I was directed to the Darwin Awards website. The concept is simple. [...]

Corny One-liners

Saturday, January 14th, 2006

My mother is in the habit of sending me joke emails, and I thought this collection of one-liners was pretty funny in a corny sort of way. How do you catch a unique rabbit?Unique up on it.  How do you catch a tame rabbit?Tame way, unique up on it.  How do crazy people go through [...]

Homestar Runner

Tuesday, December 20th, 2005

Some of my college buddies introduced me to Homestar Runner awhile back, and it has since become one of my favorite websites. Admittedly, some of the characters are pretty stupid and/or juvenile, but the site features great artistry and some side-splitting humor if you’re willing to deal with its childishness. More than anything, I recommend [...]

Whack Your Boss

Wednesday, October 26th, 2005

Stumble Upon, that oh-so-wonderful Firefox extension, led me to a flash movie aptly named Whack Your Boss. It’s an interactive cartoon designed to provide some catharsis for all of those workers out there who are fed up with their employers. Part of me is horrified beyond belief that anyone would take the time to produce [...]

Dumb Laws

Wednesday, October 12th, 2005

The conversation inevitably comes up in most office settings. Somebody mentions hearing about an idiotic law that’s still on the books, then someone else mentions another to top them, and the cycle of hilarity ensues. I was having such a conversation with my coworkers today when one of them cited Dumb Laws, a website with [...]

The Tard Blog

Friday, September 30th, 2005

One of my coworkers sent me the link for the Tard Blog earlier today. Part of me wants to take one look at it and dismiss it as inconsiderate and politically incorrect. Unfortunately, I haven’t been able to stop reading it since I first opened it. Who ever thought so much humor could come out [...]
