How to use "Well that was a big nothing"
My Grandpa (on his first trip to Hollywood): Where is Hollywood and Vine?
Me: Pretty close to my house. We can drive there.
Grandpa: They used to talk about Hollywood and Vine when I was a kid. That's where dreams were made.
Me: Here we are, stuck in traffic at Hollywood and Vine.
Grandpa: Well that was a big nothing.
Me: Pretty much.

What a helluva night! On Sunday my friend Mackenzie asked me if I wanted to go to the opening night of Pee Wee Herman’s live show. Hell yes!
First of all the show was just great. I had an ear to ear smile the entire time. As soon as the curtain went up and I saw that set…that beautiful, magical set! Wow. It was beautiful. Obviously Paul Reubens is...

a conversation with my "roommates"
me: i think i'm going to start calling you guys my roommates -- like nick swardson does in grandma's boy.
my mom: he has a job.
me: and a racecar bed.
my dad: you're not getting a racecar bed.
me: you guys suck.
it’s funny because it parodies lost.
Letter of the Day: The Devil and Mister Robertson
thedailywhat:
Satan (in the form of Minneapolis resident Lilly Coyle) writes an open letter to Pat Robertson, excoriating the televangelist for his claim that the Haiti quake was the direct consequence of the put-upon nation’s long-standing pact with him.
From the Minneapolis Star-Tribune:
Dear Pat Robertson,
I know that you know that all press is good press, so I appreciate the shout-out....

When you get to the history of sci-fi… I used to walk by the Ackermansion almost every day with my dog. I’d buy it, but I’m about $3.2 million short. The guy who lives across the street from this house used to write episodes of the Outer Limits and is a very sweet old man who loved to tell me crazy stories about old Hollywood. He also told me porn producers love to film in this...

Letterman is a sage.
I’d rather keep Jay Leno off all televisions that I will ever go near for the tenure of what I hope will be a long lifetime. Also, it’s important to note that before he died, Johnny Carson was writing jokes for Letterman, often at Leno’s expense.
And, most importantly, why hasn’t anyone made little Conan wigs to put on our Twitter and...
Conan's Statement
steveagee:
People of Earth: In the last few days, I’ve been getting a lot of sympathy calls, and I want to start by making it clear that no one should waste a second feeling sorry for me. For 17 years, I’ve been getting paid to do what I love most and, in a world with real problems, I’ve been absurdly lucky. That said, I’ve been suddenly put in a very public predicament and my bosses are...
