"It's Totally Safe"
So, I decided to keep track of things that my landlord does that both worry and reassure me at the same time. For a little backstory, my roommate’s ceiling has had a persistent, mild to serious leak for almost a full year. It started raining the second or third night we moved in and we both said “uh oh,” and called our landlord immediately.
This began a steady process of workers...
Okay I bought a Dodos ticket.

Last Night.
I had a dream that brilliant comedian and writer Dino Stamatopolous killed himself. It was HORRIBLE. I’ve never met the man, but it was still a really upsetting dream.
Then, this morning, I woke up to find that I’d gotten the following two emails overnight:
A Vyou question asking my opinion on assisted suicide.
An Amazon recommendation for season one of Morel Orel, the Adult Swim...

Quotes From My Brother, Part 1
MY BROTHER: Sometimes I walk across the street and I see a really nice car and I think, 'I hope that one hits me.'
ME: What?
MY BROTHER: You know, like, I'd rather it be a nicer car than a shitty car, so I could sue them for more money.
ME: That's a really weird thing to think. I'm going to quote you.
MY BROTHER: Feel free to clean up what I said, so it sounds better.

Nostalgic Shame: The St. Paddy's Day Blackout
I was a Senior at Emerson College. I had just started dating an adorable French girl. I was completing a jokey thesis film that came out looking like… well, a jokey thesis film from 2005. And I was also WAY into sketch and improv comedy. Probably more-so sketch, but improv was something I was enthralled by. I wished I could master it, and I studied it voraciously. Unfortunately, doing it is...

The First Joke I Ever Wrote/Told
From the first time I did stand-up, 7+ years ago:
I was spreading peanut butter on my dick last week, and I thought to myself, “Man, I really need to get a dog.”
So then I got a dog, and I was licking peanut butter off of his dick, and I thought to myself, “I wish I wasn’t allergic to peanut butter.”

The State Of My Brain, 3/9/11: I Blame Sheen
Is that okay? I needed a scapegoat, and Charlie Sheen seems like the perfect mark. He’s front and center in terms of public consciousness, he’s totally unavoidable, and he’s taking up more space in most people’s brains than they’re probably all willing to admit.
