To show people the obvious limitations of AI, I have it come up with 100 New Yorker cartoon ideas. They are very bad and often nonsensical, but this one time it did stumble on one that while not great, does work.

I hear in the new Harry Potter tv show, in every scene one character looks dead into the camera and says “Isn’t it weird we’re doing this?”

I will not rest until we get a fully feathered T-Rex in a movie. I’m talking a 2-story tall chicken wreaking havoc on scientists who dared mettle with nature.

Someone out there is the best tambourine player in the world and they don’t even know it. It’s possible they’ve never even played the tambourine either.

It’s probably not a great sign that melty smiley face is one of my most used emojis.

I love when an account’s bio tells you how many more followers they have on a different service. Big “I have a girlfriend who lives in Canada and she’s really hot” energy.

“Look at what I made! It’s so big! Look how big it is. I did good job making big. Are you looking? You need to look! It’s so big. I made it really big. Look at the big thing I made that is big!” - My son showing me something he made out of cardboard, and Christopher Nolan showing off an IMAX print.

As far as I can tell Josh Horowitz’s job is to appear in videos shown to me against my will and be…fine? Not good, not bad, just there. You wouldn’t invite him to your party but if he showed up you wouldn’t be mad, and now that I think about it more people could stand to be like Josh Horowitz.

The list of movies that would be a lot better if they didn’t have a big movie star as the lead, but also wouldn’t have been made if they didn’t have a big movie star in the lead, is expanding rapidly.

Taylor Swift’s Blank Space sounds a lot like Shaggy’s It Wasn’t Me, which led to a very confusing moment for me at a kid’s birthday karaoke party.

I don’t think it’s great that society is built in such a way where it’s common for grownups to have dreams that they’re still in school but haven’t gone to any of their classes and the final is today and they’re going to fail.

Historians would kill to know what the individual thoughts and concerns of regular people were throughout history. But social media gives us that ability now and most people are unintelligent and uninformed while also being better educated than the average person in almost any other time in history

I don’t know why people think they don’t have to pick their dog’s poop off the sidewalk if it happens to be on top of snow, but I’m sure Malcom Gladwell could stretch the explanation out to full book length in Snow Turds: How Unusual Circumstances Create Unreasonable Behaviors

When I post same joke here and on Threads, it’ll get 2 likes here and 300 likes on Threads, and neither is satisfying but in different ways.

You must keep the conversation going. The algorithm demands the conversation keeps going. The algorithm promises likes and shares beyond your wildest dreams if you keep the conversation going.The algorithm says that if the conversation ends, you end.

To tell how fancy a Mexican restaurant is, simply take the price of their guacamole and divide it by the number of chips they give you. Tonight, my restaurant was a 9.

I couldn’t tell you if Dead Man’s Wire was a good movie because about 5 minutes into it Al Pacino says he only eats his burritos cut into thirds and for the next hour and a half all I could think about was Pacino trying to eat that center third cut.

Everyone’s idea for fixing the internet boils down to bringing back something from when they liked the internet, which is myopic and naive, except when it’s my idea of bringing back GeoCities

Calling ICE fascist doesn’t bother them, because they agree. I hate to say this, but if you really want to get under their skin you’ll have to use AI to make realistic and graphic videos of them sucking each other off.

2016 was when I noticed the trend starting of people online blaming all the very bad things that happened on the year itself, so it’s a little disconcerting to see all the people posting their photos from 2016 full of nostalgia.

If Alamo Drafthouse is going to make people use their phones to order food during the movie, the least they could do is let us use Seamless so we can get food that’s actually good.

What Marty Supreme really nails about ping pong is that the trick to getting better is to not practice and get into a lot of life threatening hijinks.
