A Homeless Man Just Pushed Me Into The Snow Or,...
About ten minutes ago, I was walking home with arms full of broken-down boxes and packing wrap, because I’m getting ready to move.
All of a sudden, from out of nowhere, someone pushed me extremely hard and I fell into a filthy snowbank. The boxes all fell out of my hands and I sort of just dropped to my side, my face landing in snow. I looked up and started to say, “Hey, what the...
Will Someone Call Dibs On These Good Reviews Of My...
“Oh My God, I Heard You’re Dying!” is running again February 7th at 8pm, and to help promote it, I’d love for people on Tumblr to call dibs on some of these incredibly touching and flattering reviews of the show. So if you see something below that you’d like to say about it, feel free to reblog it, claim the quote you want, and become a real-live, bona-fide critic!

“Having Palin in office would be like a four-year-long white water rafting trip. It might kill us, but if it doesn’t, we’ll end up with a lot of crazy ass photos.”

Fun With Auditioning Children
Today at work, a five year old boy came in to audition for us.
He was tiny, had blonde hair, and was wearing a leather jacket. Halfway through the audition, his cell phone rang. He stopped, pulled out an iPhone 4, and said verbatim, “Oh god, it’s Bryan Mendoza. I’ve gotta take this.”
And then he left and never came back.

According to Astronomer Peter Kunkle, peoples’ astrological signs are changing. I am no longer a Virgo, but apparently a Leo.
I can’t wait for everyone whose signs are changing to begin saying things like, “You know, I could totally feel in the last couple weeks that my sign was shifting, so this totally makes sense.”
Also, please note that there is now a 13th sign,...

Here’s a clip from last night’s Letterman, where he tells monologue jokes about the the 10th Annual No Pants Subway Ride for over a minute. (The No Pants part starts right after the pre-roll commercial.)
Dave also mentioned the event a few times back in 2006, the year eight people were put in handcuffs by the cops (all charges were dropped as it’s not illegal to ride the subway...
2010: My Favorites!
Favorite Movies:
1. Blue Valentine - Oh this movie was everything I like in a movie. It was devastating, it was directed like a documentary, and Michelle Williams looked like a tiny baby bird that I just wanted to hold in my hands. 2. Black Swan - Over the top ridiculous, but it knew exactly what it was doing every step of the way. 3. 127 Hours - Not only a great film, but if you’ve got...
An All-Too-Precious Look Back At 2010 Which I'm...
You guys, I’m about to get real ridiculous.

My year began on a rooftop in Cape Town with my dad and my sister and ended in a warehouse in Brooklyn with more than 400 people. The only thing the two nights had in common, oddly enough, was the lack of black people.
The very moment it turned 2011, I felt nothing but panic. No longer did my mother die “last year”. She...
