The Most Awesome Picture You Will See Today

By Justin Gardner | Related entries in Comedy, WTF?

Sure, tomorrow there could be a picture more awesome than this, but today this one is grand champion. Bringing this back around… The young boy is AIG, the dancing lady is the GOP, the shortsless guy is Geithner and the older woman just coming into the room is the American public. Discuss.

By Justin Gardner | Related entries in Comedy, Economy, History, Video

Cramer should have just shut up and taken his lumps. Instead he tried to make it Stewart the boogeyman and here’s how that turned out. Yes, Cramer actually fired back and then tried to use the excuse of, “Well, but, but, but Warren Buffett and stuff!” I’m sure we’ll have more tomorrow.

Joaquin Phoenix: The New Andy Kaufman?

By Justin Gardner | Related entries in Comedy, Kitchen Sink, Video

Nothing to do with politics, but a lot of people are talking about the following clip as if it’s evidence that Joaquin Phoenix has lost it.

What Do TV Anchors Do During Commercials?

Find out… I worked in local news when I was in college for the Fox affiliate here in Kansas City and having a good sense of humor is almost essential for the job. Because most people in the news business are horribly paid and the only satisfaction one usually gets is from moments like these. [...]

First, Blagojevich hangs his head and can’t even make eye contact with the judge, but that’s a big deal since she’s talking to somebody in the far left corner of the room… Then, Blagojevich has loosened [...]
