It's not unique in this regard, I'm sure, but my sense of humor is something wicked. I like to use the graphic from my favorite t-shirt to describe it: Usually dark, always absurd, sometimes offensive, and not so rarely macabre. I imagine that if I really wanted/had the meanness in me, I could be an excellent asshole. Like, worst 'jerk around' material. I may not always say it out loud, and usually not to the person it concerns unless I feel comfortable/know they won't garrote me for it, but it's in there. A frothy, sometimes roiling pool of meanness and wit (usually lacking actual  spite, but still...). Like, I saw headlines last night about Beyonce's miscarriage . And while I perfectly sincerely questioned on twitter why anyone ever needed to know about it (I only just now saw that it was revealed through Jay-Z's song, not sleazy journalism) and while I also know perfectly well how traumatic and awful and heartbreaking the misfortune of miscarr...

Not really, but it was a funny joke all the same last week. Apparently, Park Police happened upon a pair of joyriding tweens and got to play big cops for an hour. One of those things where the guy pulled up behind them at a stop sign, the kids--being either high/drunk, stupid, or just plain bored--assumed this guy was a real cop ( and after them) and took off. Real winners these kids. Of course, Mr Park Police gave chase. It's the dream of all Park Police, (mall) Security, and other breeds of Rent-a-Cops that they will someday level up & evolve into  real cops...or is that just Pokémon? Somehow or another they wound all wound up at the elementary school near my house (regression much? as I said, these kids are  winners .). They hopped the kerb with the stolen car and promptly fled on foot through the school yard. Leaving a confused and bewildered Park Police guy. (This wasn't covered in the training seminar, see.) Anyway, we (Parker, Kial, and myself) happened t...

One of these days I'll actually bother finishing that Schlock! documentary about exploitation films . Because most every movie I'll likely review here will prolly be some kind of exploitation or another. I've already reviewed a drugsploitation , some STDsploitations , and even an automobilesploitation . Best character. (CftHL) This week I'm looking at two hicksploitation flicks. God help us.

So, my post over on bestfunnyblog.com is up and ready to be read! :D I feel so loved. Laugh goddamn you. Read it and LAUGH!!! Also, building up the courage to write another comparison post for Bad Movie Monday, like that STD's in Space one , only this time comparing two hillbilly-based exploitation films. Er, less the "courage to write the post" as "the courage to re-watch the movies". These are not going to be easy to watch again. Actually I'd kind of written them off, especially Creature from the Hillbilly Lagoon which although amusing in a way wasn't much to sneeze at. Also,  Redneck  Zombies was my first Troma film. It's a bit...kooky. And then, tonight, I remember making recommendations to a friend. I'd just watched Lagoon , and ended up comparing it with Redneck . The review basically writes itself from there. So I hope to have this worked up sometime tonight. First, I need some cartoons and comfort popcorn. If it turns out I c...

For the record, I still haven't seen Inception . However, I've seen at least two hilarious parodies of/using  Inception . The first makes fun of  The Room , a movie that really needs no-making-fun-of-ing and yet totally begs for it. The second I just discovered on a friend's blog, bestfunnyblog.com , and makes fun of Dora the Explorer .

Holy shit, guys, who'd'a thunk I'd make it this far or this long? Well this post's a grab-bag of goodies, yessir it is. Glasses , birthdays , new look & feel , and even an amusing story ! and possibly even more !
