You know how when people are feeling kind of low,...

paulftompkins:
Two years ago today, at this hour, my wife and I were married. Immediately after being pronounced so, and after kissing for the first time as husband and wife, the song “Wagon Wheel” by Old Crow Medicine Show played, and we processed past our family and our friends and began our new life together.
Lat month, I celebrated the tenth anniversary of the live variety show I do here...

This is a sketch that I wrote with my friend, the multi talented Elisha Yaffe, for Yahoo’s Sketchy series. It pokes a little fun at Kickstarter projects, but mostly at sloppy lazy jerks in general.

The Three Post-Breakup Phases
I used to answer a lot of relationship questions over at my other blog, the in-hibernation DEALBREAKER. Looking back, I find it really funny that anyone ever trusted me with love advice, because it’s not really a topic I’m that well versed in. I’ve dated successfully, messily, carelessly, carefully, and casually, and up to this point, they all end the same way: by ending.

Pretty Funny (Minus the Funny)
gibblertron:
I don’t understand a lot of things. I don’t understand why my neighbor is pursuing a career as a 1990’s electronic music artist. I don’t understand why the ice cream shop near my house considers two scoops of ice cream one scoop. And I don’t understand how women, educated journalists, can be so unfair when writing about other women. Alessandra Stanley of the New York Times was...

Just saw a comment on Instagram
The picture was of a friend of mine and you can sort of see her bra through her shirt and someone commented “sweet nips,” and in that moment I was REALLY hoping that the commenter was female. Nope. It was a guy. Now, I had/have no context for this comment. For all I know “sweet nips” could be an inside joke between these two people. They could be dating and that’s his...
