  1. Real quick, don't expect anyone to see this, but I keep losing my shit over this one part of the pcast when hayes reminds everyone that the subtitle is 'a skelingtons kiss'. Sean's "ah haaaaaaa" is really good.

     

    Listen and confirm at 30:33

     

    Agreed! I also enjoy the fellas' response when Paul Scheer says that it's based on a true story.

     

    I also would like to say that Hayes always says my name in such an elegant, high class way that it makes me forget how white trash my upbringing was. Ah-nastasia. I love it! I will start introducing myself as "Ah-nastasia" from now on. And I shall say "charmed, I'm sure" when I meet people for the first time.

     

    Jacob, yes, work is stupid.

  2. I'm still not convinced you guys aren't just in my head because I'm very funny and I could definitely see myself making all these episodes up and saying all these funny, nice, smart and also cool things.

     

    Trkybrg, if we are all in your head, then thank you for picking up the pace in the forum for the past few days. You've created a lot of funnies and good convo. You're pretty much a disturbed multi-personality genius!

     

    PS - I am you telling you this.

    I'm pretty sure it was of russian or eastern european decent of some kind...

     

    My other half is Greek. Hmmm...so, i have a near-doppelganger with my name out there somewhere. I would like to wish her well, but Freud mandates that if I ever meet her I will have to kill her or she will kill me.

     

    (Dear NSA, I know you are reading this. The above is a joke. I will not be killing anyone. Sincerely, Anastasia)

    Since Spunky wouldn't deliver, here's one I made up:

     

    Hank Palermo and Jared Foonerism were born at the same second, in the same hospital, to nurses with the same last name and roughly similar breast size on Easter Sunday 1957. It was the year everything changed. From the kinder grades to Big State University, Hank and Jared were inseparable. They lived and loved together, laughed and cried together, and even lied for each other. Once, when Hank broke a window at the local library trying to return a copy of Evelyn Waugh's "Decline and Fall", Jared turned himself in to the cops so Hank could play quarterman in the big game against Rivalville that weekend. From his holding cell, Jared listened on the devil's talk box as Hank scored the winning touchgoal just before time expired on the big clock. Hank was named Eternal MVP and got a massive trophy he couldn't even pick up, like Thor's hammer. It's still in the center of the Flyover High field to this day. The teams simply play around it in Hank's honor, brushing his helmet for good luck as they make their right quick drivers up the grassy. And when Jared found out he was infertile in the late '70s, he turned to Hank for help. Hank remembered the ecstasy he felt putting all those points on the board, the butt-touches he got from the cheerleaders as he was hoisted in the air like a young Jewish boy entering adulthood... and knew he had to repay his friend for that night spent in the slammer with Big Sheriff Bobby, the baddest man in all of Flyover. So, they crafted a plan. Hank would be the one to father Jared's baby boy. But neither the Foonerism or Palermo families could ever know and the men themselves were too poor to pay for an artificial insemination. So, Hank would have to do the deed himself, just as those animals do on the Discovery Channel. But they were religious men and Jared knew he couldn't let his wife get pregnant from a man to whom she wasn't married. So on the 4th of July 1979, Jared and Dana Foonerism divorced. Had anyone known, it would've torn the town apart. Their keys to the city would have been revoked and then melted into a big broken heart to be mounted in town square. The newly split couple would have been kicked across the Flyover town limits, right into Rivalville. But no one ever knew. After the divorce, Hank and Dana kidnapped Father Joseph by threat of shotgun and had a shotgun wedding in Old Man McCutcheon's barn, right behind the hay bales where Jared and Dana shared their first kiss. It was a beautiful ceremony. The horses whinnied, the pigs slopped and Karen the Cow gave milk for the first time in a decade. After the dinner service, Hank did what he had to do for his friend, sowing the seed that would one day become the Spunkmaster Flex himself. Out of respect, he kept his eyes closed the whole time and thought only of his big trophy sitting out their in the grass, covered in bird shit. He divorced Dana that next morning and returned her hand to Jared, who remarried her that same night in Old Man McCutcheon's basement, where Father Joseph was still tied up. He was never much good with knots, you know... And such is the story of Spunky Foo, the man with two daddies.

    I used to say "Love you, Bye" at the end of mean comments to indicate that they were actually not mean but I've since become lazy and so now I just let people decide if they're mean or not on their own. I also think that people really shouldn't get too worked up about what someone says on an internet forum but I can understand if wires get crossed somewhere. I've also periodically made some grand gestures to explain how I feel about new people and how much I truly, unsarcastically love each and every individual delicate snowflake on this forum and how I'm actually a person who needs people to explain these sorts of things to them because I default to assuming everyone hates me (because childhood and a Dad who's an engineer). So I'm doing that again now in a less poetic, more literal way.

     

    I like you. I like your sense of humor.

  6. First of all, Showshowbro, your dog is adorable. What's his or her name? Does he or she like fishing? I listened to Tiger Scout Radio and loved it! Garage rock and comedy are two of my favorite things. I listened to the 10/18 episode and enjoyed every song you played.

     

    Burdrulz, you make some seriously beautiful videos! I can't wait to see the completed web series. By the way (to support Chanson's point), I work for a supposedly creative and fun place to work and I hate my job. Each day it takes me great effort not to become a cutter just so I can feel a different kind of pain. Needless to say, I'm in a slump and need to shake up my life a bit. So, I think I'll relate to your show.

     

    Finally, Chanson is a nice and funny guy with great wisdom and insight into life. But sometimes he can be a little salty. I hope Chanson and BRRII keep journals about their tanksgiving time together and then post them here.

  7. Great posts this week everybody I have been liking like a madman but still have some left I think. There definitely shouldn't be a like restriction on the forums but at least they give us a whole bunch. Posts have been so good sometimes I feel like I'm not good enough to be here and I should just end it all. And that let's you know I am alive because ghosts can't contemplate suicide (probably).

     

    I feel the same way, Bozos. But it's nice to be on this forum with people who challenge me...

     

    ...to end it all.

     

    But really tho, I'm a funnier more creative person in real life because of you all...

     

    ...and how I steal your jokes.

    1.) Just posted one on Instagram this weekend. Plz follow me @brgrho. Plz and thx. Follow 4 follow.

    2.) I read this book once called Scary Stories to Tell In the Dark that traumatized the living bejesus out of me.

    3.) I'm in my final year (and a half) of college and have never had a more stressful period of academic work in my life. Most of my waking hours the last two weeks have been spent on two massive mergers and acquisitions slash company turnaround projects due the Monday after Tom Hanks-giving. I wouldn't say I'm burned out over it--big fan of school, actually, but the potential for failure is strong. This forum and improv and Photoshop are the only things keeping me sane. Thank you and love you.

     

    Followed!

     

    I was similarly traumatized. I read the Shining as a child and had insomnia for years afterward. TOO SCARY!

     

    Are you some kind of businessman student? Good for you, brgr!

     

    PS - I get your name now.

    I've got this weirdass project going where I'm going to the hospital to get a cyst removed from my face that is making me depressed (not a bit). I'm also in my final year of college, doing graphic design, and I'm busy at that.

     

    Damn Bruce, you're stealing my Irish stereotypes. The classic unshaven potato farmer look.

     

    Also I'm a mug and it's torturous.

     

    Is the cyst that handle in your photo? You should keep it. It looks good.

     

    (For reals though, good luck with the cyst removal and with your final year of college. Put some graphic design stuff up here. I'm sure everyone would love to see your mad skills.)
