As Seen on TV
I’m not sure if the horrible infomercial is just an American phenomenon or not, but here in the US we sure do have some commercial doozies.
The Snuggie. The Be-Dazzler. Ginsu Knives. Urine gone. Yes, Urine Gone!
Sometimes the products look so great! And the prices are always insaaaaaaaaaaanely awesome! How can you resist?
Well, one product really [...]
Pole Dance Mania!
I am not a fan of pole dancing. I went to a strip club exactly once in my life, and that was more than enough. It wasn’t my catholic guilt/prudishness that made me recoil in disgust at the experience; it was the extreme sadness I felt for humanity that overcame me while watching these naked [...]
Merry Consumer-mas, Everyone!
This year’s Christmas Spectacular is dedicated to the one and only Reverend Billy Talen, whose movie “What Would Jesus Buy?” inspired me to go out and ask people just that. Every year around New York City, there are these Christmas markets where people hawk ridiculous items in hopes that people will buy them as Christmas [...]
The Next Big Thing
I really do try to embrace change when it comes, no matter how hard that might be at times. Right now, there seems to be a change in our pop culture that’s super-easy for me to welcome with open arms. That change is a cultural shift in what is popular and what is smeared across [...]
Americuh
If after watching this video you wonder, who could possibly care about whether or not people call the U.S. “America,” let me answer: A lot of nutters on the internet who continuously email me about it. Seriously! I didn’t just invent this issue. If after watching this video you wonder, how could The Resident, a [...]
Snuff TV
I admit it, I watch terrible reality TV shows. A lot. I watch them and I point and the screen and laugh in disgust, all the while appreciating the fact that these people will disappear into oblivion any minute but right now they think they are the shit. They do disgusting things on TV for [...]
Fat Americans
Years ago I did a video called “Why People Hate the USA” and it got grillions of hits because a lot of people DO hate the USA, and a lot of people mistook me for one of them. Which, if you watch the video and my own response to it, is not the case. However, [...]
The Green Manufacturing Expo, Exposed
So I took a trip over to the Green Manufacturing Expo at the Jacob Javits Center recently, only to learn that the expo was only one teeny, tiny part of a general manufacturing expo, where going green was hardly the trend. There was a ton of medical supplies, robotics, and more teeny, tiny pieces of [...]
Why You Suck: John and Kate
Confession time. I watch inordinate amounts of bad, bad TV. My DVR is chock filled with Celeb-reality awfulness, prime-time network schlock, late-night cop shows, you name it. TV has always been my favorite medium, aside from books. Give me sixty minutes of idiocracy over a two-hour dramatic movie any time. I like my entertainment to [...]
