  • An Awkward Conversation

    Mom: Honey, we have to talk.

    Dad: Sure, what is it?

    Mom: It’s about what I found in Corbin’s room while cleaning it today.

    Dad: Well what did you find?

    Mom: I found a box of condoms.

    Dad: Oh honey, there’s nothing wrong with that!  Our boy is old enough now to be making his own decisions. We wouldn’t be good parents if we told him he couldn’t have sex.

    Mom: Ok, I don’t know how to put this, but...these aren’t...normal condoms.

    Dad: Oh ho ho, is our boy using Magnums? I told you he takes after his father.

    Mom: No, they’re not Magnums...they’re condoms specially made for, well...anal sex.  

    Dad: Oh! Ok, well, I guess our son likes to play in the mud a bit. There’s nothing wrong with door #2 honey. You know, it’s been a while since we...

    Mom: GAY anal sex.    

    Dad: WHAT?!

    Mom: Yea, look right here on the package.  “Dr. William Montana’s Specially Made Gay Anal Sex Condoms.”

    Dad: Ok that is just preposterous. Maybe...maybe he just bought them because they didn’t have anything else at the store.


    Mom:
    That’s what I thought too, but, here, look at his shopping list.

    Dad: Dr. William Montan—OK LOOK! Maybe they just feel better when he is having intercourse. Regular, normal, heterosexual intercourse…with a woman.

    Mom: Yea, I’m not too sure about that…look at what else I found.

    Dad: Oh Jesus...that’s not...that’s not a Polaroid of our boy doing...THAT, is it?

    Mom: I’m afraid it is.

    Dad: I think I’m going to be sick…


    Fifteen silent minutes later


    Mom: What are you thinking honey?

    Dad: I’m thinking that it’s your fault our son is like this.

    Mom: What?

    Dad: Remember when you had him take ballet lessons when he was six?

    Mom: Oh, you can’t be serious…

    Dad: It’s your fault! All your fault!

    Mom: Look, we can’t be pointing fingers here. We need to be there to support our son right now. This must be a difficult time for him.

    Dad: Oh, sure, I’ll be there for him. Every other weekend, that is.

    Mom: What do you mean?

    Dad: I want a divorce.



  • A Conversation Between Dave Chappelle and Carlos Mencia

    Dave Chappelle:  Hey Carlos, how’s it goin man?
    Carlos Mencia:  It’s pretty bueno Dave.  Yourself?
    Dave Chappelle:  …Umm, yea, it’s all good.
    Carlos Mencia:  So what’s up?
    Dave Chappelle:  Look man, I came here to talk to you about your show.
    Carlos Mencia:  Yea, it’s pretty funny, huh?  It’s like a continuation of your show!
    Dave Chappelle:  Well, not so much.  See, Carlos, on my show I explored the cultural differences between black and white people…
    Carlos Mencia:  Yea, I do that too, except I mock a whole lot more races, like Terrorists!  And I make fun of the retarded as well!
    Dave Chappelle:  Ok, see there it is right there: whenever I joked about something, I didn’t so much mock it as bring it to light in a humorous way.  You just sort of cling on to stereotypes and mercilessly deride them while saying “dee-dee-dee,” or whatever the hell you call it.  And “Terrorist” isn’t a race, by the way.
    Carlos Mencia:  Well, I’m a minority too vato!  What gives you the right to satirize white people and not me?
    Dave Chappelle:  Seriously?
    Carlos Mencia:  …Yea…
    Dave Chappelle:  Sigh  Look man, us black people have been subjugated by white folks for—
    Carlos Mencia:  Subju-what?
    Dave Chappelle:  It means repressed.  Anyways, we have been repressed for a long time.  By showing the differences between our cultures, I’m trying to let my people finally be able to laugh at it.
    Carlos Mencia:  Well, I’m doing the same thing holmes!  I make fun of other races so my people can laugh.
    Dave Chappelle:  And who exactly are your “people” there Carlos?  Hondurans?  Germans, possibly?
    Carlos Mencia:  Uhh, heh heh, what are you talking about there Dave?  I’m from the barrio!  I’m a Beaner!  Remember?
    Dave Chappelle:  No, not really there, Ned.  Look, I won’t blow the top off your whole “not-really-being-Mexican-but-pretending-to-be-one-so-you-can-say-beaner” scheme you’ve got going here, but you’ve got to stop spouting all this racism.  You’re no better than Michael Richards, it’s just that you have dark skin so somehow people think it’s acceptable for you to be a racist.
    Carlos Mencia:  I’m not racist though!  I point out cultural differences too!  Like that one skit I had, where I was a Hindu convenience store clerk and made fun of a Redneck for buying beer and a black man for trying to rob me!  That’s just good satire!
    Dave Chappelle:  No, see that’s just making fun of stereotypes.  A six-year-old coulda written that.
    Carlos Mencia:  Well you did that Racial Draft!  How is that not racist?!
    Dave Chappelle:  Because it was intelligent humor showing how racial groups are protective of their own people and envious of others.  I’m not surprised the joke escaped you.
    Carlos Mencia:  …I’ll…escape…you
    Dave Chappelle:  Brilliant.  Just brilliant man.  Look, I just thought I’d let you know how I felt.  No hard feelings, just, you know, try to be funnier and not so racist.
    Carlos Mencia:  Yes sir…
    Dave Chappelle:  And stop shouting at your viewers.  They’re not deaf.
    Carlos Mencia:  Ok…
    Dave Chappelle:  And your “retard” impression isn’t funny at all.  Have you ever seen an actual mentally-handicapper person?
    Carlos Mencia:  No sir…
    Dave Chappelle:  Didn’t think so.  Clean up the act Ned.  Bye.
    Carlos Mencia:  Adios.  I mean, bye.


  • What Your AIM Font Says About You

    – I am fucking annoying.  Seriously, just really fucking annoying.  I choose an unreadable font not because I enjoy the color/font combination, but because I enjoy being a supreme dickhead.  Just like my online persona, I am equally irritating in real life.  I have been known to find humor in cockblocking my friends, killing jokes, and finishing a pitcher of beer without offering to refill it.  I am an ideal candidate for euthanasia.

    – WHOOOO!!!  GO [insert sports team]!!!  They fucking rule!  I’m such a hardcore fan, my font coordinates with their jersey color, my buddy icon relates to them, and I have their record in my profile!  GO TEAM!  YEA!!!  I love this font a lot…that is, until they start doing poorly.

     – I am so fucking emo.  Just check me out man.  The rigid font paired with the loveless colors show just how turbulent my soul is.  This font is soon to replace those thick black rectangular glasses as the symbol for all things emo.  I don’t really care though, because apathy is totally emo…right?  I’m not too clear on our beliefs…but that’s probably got to be pretty emo.  Oh, and don’t forget to check out my profile for a link to my poetry.

     – Just like my default font, my life lacks any change: I wake up at the same time every morning, eat the same breakfast, wear the same drab clothes, and in general am just a buzzkill.  Hopefully you don’t have too many friends like me.  





  • Christmas at the Horvath Household


    Dad
    :  So, do you guys wanna start opening up presents?
    Me
    :  Sure.
    My Brother
    :  Absolutely.
    Mom:  Ok, why don’t you go first Steven.  Here’s one for you.
    Me:  Sweet, a Nintendo Wii!  Thanks a lot!  Here mom, open this one.  It’s from me.
    Mom:  Oh, wow…look at this…an ornament with your school’s logo on it…thanks.
    Me:  Why don’t you put it on the tree now?
    Mom:  No, let’s save it for next year…it’s too…special.
    Me:  That’s fine.
    My Brother:  Here Steve, open this up.
    Me:  Oh awesome, Arrested Development DVDs.  Thanks!  Open this one up.

    Me:  Wow, baseball stuff!  Thanks Dad!
    Dad:  You’re welcome.
    Me:  Here, I got this for you.
    Dad:  I wonder what it could be…it’s a…polo shirt…that says Santa Clara Dad on it.  Wow, this is a lot better than the one you got me last year.  This one’s red.
    Me:  I know, right!
    Dad:  (Muttered) You’re a horrible son…
    Me:  What’s that?
    Dad:  I said, “You’re a…deplorable…son.”  Wait, that’s no good either.  Shit.  Get me another whiskey sour.

  • Annoying "Price Is Right" Contestants

    If there is one equation to remember during finals week, it’s that “finals week = no classes = Price is Right.”  It’s your classic transitive property of what to do when you don’t have school, dating back to your grade school days.  But nowadays there is an increasing number of people on the Price is Right who really grind my gears.  Here are just a few of the types of people who are making Bob Barker want to retire:


    Middle-Aged Woman Who Obviously Doesn't Watch The Show

    • Smiles blankly because she does not realize the extent of her luck to be called to "come on down"
    • On Contestants' Row, all her bids are either $1 under a previous bid or are grossly higher than the actual retail price
    • If, by chance, she plays a pricing game, she stares blankly at the group she came with for help.  Sadly, they're also old hens, thus no help
    • The plus side: For once justifies your affinity for hurling profanities at the TV



  • How To Tell If She's A Virgin

    Got Cherry?
    Does your girlfriend maintain that she's a virgin, but you're just not sure?  Here's a quick checklist to help you figure out if that cherry's been popped:



    • Her copy of the "Kama Sutra" has check marks on certain pages

    • She lets slip the fact that she’s had sex before, but when you call her on it she replies, “Yea, but it’s Opposite Day silly!”  If it’s truly Opposite Day, wouldn’t she say it’s NOT Opposite Day?

    • Her name is Erin Colnon, Brooke Bobb, or Emily Green.  I totally boned those broads already

    • She’s your younger sister.  Trust me dude, she’s already had sex.  And besides, if you’re going out with your younger sister, her V-Card status should be pretty low on your list of problems

    • One of her Facebook groups is "I tell people I'm a virgin, but I've really had sex"

    • When you do finally have sex and she achieves orgasm, she pants, "That was so good.  I always get off when I'm on top."

    • After eating something particularly tasty, she says, “That’s as good as sex, which I’ve had before.”

    • Her name is Charlene.  All Charlenes are miserable cunts who cheat on you.  YOU SAID YOU LOVED ME CHARLENE!!  WE WERE MEANT TO BE TOGETHER!!

  • This Things I Believe: On An Airplane

    Some random thoughts that drifted through my head when I flew back to school:

  • This kid next to me better not look over at my computer for a little while. That nude scene from Wedding Crashers is coming up and I don't want to have to minimize the screen
  • John Denver was in fact not full of shit; the Rockies are pretty damn rocky
  • I would definitely do brunette stewardess; it would take me about five beers for the blonde one
  • But seriously: what is the deal with airplane food?
  • What the hell song did I just listen to as I was dozing off?
  • Oh shit, is it in bad taste to mention John Denver in an article about airplanes?
  • If this plane goes down, that chick two rows ahead would probably be my best bet for sex
  • Plots of farmland are really square-shaped.
  • I hope no one heard that fart
  • I could totally parachute safely down to the ground from up here
  • Upon second thought, John Denver's passing was a while ago. And I couldn't do much worse than South Park
