Her name was Spam, Likely Spam. We were young and full of dreams, but my dreams weren't her dreams. I thought I'd never hear from her again.

This Montresor guy’s so funny. Every time he lays a brick, I knock the one behind it onto the floor. Then, when he bends down to pick it up, I knock the other one down too. It’s fun, but I’m getting a little thirsty. When are we going to sample that wine?

I’m an Oompa-Loompa, it's my day off, and I'm spending it with my Oompa-Loompa family at the Oompa-Loompa park. We're laughing and smiling and having a good time and I won’t find out till tomorrow that the machine I operate, the Taffy Puller, has stretched, folded, and aerated a child named Chauncy.

I’ve never seen a dog eat another dog. I have, however, seen a dog eat a whole block of cheese. It's a dog-eat-cheese world out there.

PERSON: I don't like that guy. He uses big words just to sound smart. YOU NEXT TIME YOU HEAR THIS: I hate it when people do that. What big words? PERSON WHO NOW SMELLS A TRAP: Oh, you know, big words. Fancy ones. YOU: Such as? PERSON: Well, now I don't want to say.

Telling God, the omniscient creator of the universe that you don’t know where your brother is (the brother you just murdered and who also happened to be 1/4th of the total world population) is so unbelievably funny that almost everyone forgets to laugh. “Am I my brother’s keeper” ← comedy gold

I pass the background check in 8 mins. The clerk scoots the gun across the counter. I pick it up. It feels good. Real good. I step towards the door. "Hey, you can’t go out like that. Did you bring a holster?" My eyes narrow. "If not, I can sell you one for $15." My grip tightens.

Miami Vice is a textbook example of a director letting his own aesthetic eat, digest, and expel a movie. But then halfway through Gong Li & Colin Farrell hook up, and no one has ever had more on-screen chemistry in the history of cinema. If I saw this in my teens, it would have ruined me.

You remember life on the Internet before 2024. Every viral post had 200+ right-wingers in the comments saying the same thing: “Epstein didn’t kill himself.” Now, the position is that he definitely did, and anyone who says otherwise is a commie sympathizer.

If you lose a soccer game 1 to 4, that’s rough. But what if you lose a soccer game 1 to 4 after your dad runs onto the field, takes the ref aside, and gets him to reverse a call after a heated debate with lots of kissing? Is that better or worse?

Imagine this; a coworkers gets accused of being a lazy narcissist. You’re in different departments, so you can’t say if he is/isn’t. Later, he posts a picture of himself holding up the world, draped in the American flag. Again, you don’t know him, so you reserve judgement, but it’s getting harder.

The Nazis had wrong and deeply weird opinions on the Vikings. Does this mean that having wrong and deeply weird opinions about the Vikings makes you a Nazi? No, but you should probably clarify that you’re being wrong and deeply weird about the Vikings in a not-Nazi way.

“The sooner I cut toxic people out of my life/fire those underperforming employees/purge the Red Army, the sooner I can get back to thriving.” If your girlfriend/boss/General Secretary says this, go “Yaas, Queen.” The sooner they destroy themselves the sooner you can get back to thriving.

The constant barrage of Facebook memes from official government accounts saying it’s all going to be OK are correct actually. I don’t see why you’re so upset. The president just told you—800 times—that everything's perfectly all right now. We're fine, we're all fine here now, thank you. How are you?

People out here saying that Bear should have wished to be Nikki’s type or wished for the courage to ask her out. That’s wrong. Bear should have wished to not be the object of a cautionary tale. His problem isn’t word choice. His problem is W. W. Jacobs.

It wasn’t always like this. Before Reagan, you could run away. Join the circus. Now, all the clowns are freelance, & the lions roam the streets. “Nathan!” people shout. “Take off your big red clown shoes & run!” But the lions are going to get me anyway, & a clown without his shoes is but a man.

The backlash to the new God of War spinoff, Laufey, is mind boggling, especially as it’s coming from men who claim to be straight. If your crush on Deborah Ann Woll, doesn’t go all the way back to True Blood, you have terrible taste. She has been the connoisseur’s choice since 2009.

In the 1950s, gay-conversion therapy pioneer Kart Frund used alternating currents to zap the gay OUT of his patients while vehemently opposing the idea that—by the same logic—a direct current could zap the gay IN. (🧵 1/3)

This is a good butt. All that makes it a butt is there. Did I want to see more? Yes, because the model had the most epic butt in the history of Greek butts, but Picasso wanted to use as few lines as possible, & I respect his decision. This post is about Emily Wilson’s translation of the Odyssey.

Because the only number that’s actually countless is zero, you can tell anyone, “I’ve spent countless nights thinking about the two of us—you and I—together on a sailboat trip around the world.” Well, anyone besides me, but we don’t need to talk about that. If you don’t want to.

Sometimes a cow will say, “Let’s walk over there.” And the other cows will be like, “Alright.” Does this cow then think of herself as the leader, the Alpha Cow? Maybe. I don’t know a lot about cows.

Sometimes a new Star Wars writer will notice that Stormtroopers are doing all the jobs on Imperial bases. That feels unrealistic, so they’ll add technicians or a new kind of Stormtrooper (the Officetrooper). It’s a good instinct, but George knew what he was about.

So many boomer dads out here championing the Bee as THE Great White Hope of conservative comedy while its writers stagger through the dark, grasping at questions like “Do babies do drink warm milk or cold?”
