Who is the funniest person (stand up comedian or comedic actor) you've ever watched?

Bill Cosby.

He can make anything funny. And very little of his humor consists of cheap shots.

I think that you will all agree that it's mainly incorrect for a lawyer to be looking for concert tickets these days.

If you figuratively mean "concert tickets", I'd suggest you adjust your drug lingo since that means something else.

Whereas if you literally mean "concert tickets", then I'd ask what the hell is wrong with you, you insipid bore.

Chappelle, Rocket... etc.

Chappelle has passed Rock in my book. The Chappelle show is hands down the funniest show on television, even miles beyond Curb Your Enthusiasm and my old favorite the Simpsons.

Chappelle's show ought to have a warning before it. I watched the Niggar Family bit last night and coughed a good chunk of black beans and spicy grilled onions into my sinuses.

She's younger than you, Muffin.

So is Kelly Osbourne. What's your point? Are you still pissed off about the wake up call?

Actually it does rhyme.

"rhyme also rime
n.
Correspondence of terminal sounds of words or of lines of verse.

A poem or verse having a regular correspondence of sounds, especially at the ends of lines.
Poetry or verse of this kind.
A word that corresponds with another in terminal sound, as behold and cold. "

But it's still a stupid song.

As a father who must listen to these things, let me say that Avril is significantly preferable to most of her competition for the teenie-bopper sound.

How I loathe the days when the sound was "oops, I did it again..." Avril at least is uphill from there.

While we're on Canadian's, I saw Canadian Bacon again last night. Boy, I forget how much that makes me laugh!

Fred Phelps, of course.

How many kids? As many as have died from, say, X?* Seems to me that everything should be made over the counter and children should be placed into giant plastic bubbles until they are 18 years old, at which time they will be allowed to go to college and kill themselves on alcohol binges. WTF.


*all four of them

I think the exact number is in question because DXM is being sold as X at Raves. So people think they're taking X and their friends will say they've taken X when they're driven to the hospital, but it's really DXM. But the number is high enough that once people find out it's legal and it gets you high, more people will be taking it. And the theory is that there are none of the obvious "tells" like dilated pupils that you will see with X, so you can hide it from your parents easier. But I've been on cold pills, and if I had taken 30 of them, I'm pretty sure people would know something was wrong with me.

One of the girls in the article said she had tripped over 300 times on it with her bf and said she was becoming addicted. They stopped when they had a bad episode and got all paranoid and freaked out by how she was so thirsty that she ate snow.

Oh, and NCS. But all of her humor consists of cheap shots.

Take it to the geezers board.

So how many people have died from it? Seriously. Because more people die from alcohol every day than have died in that last decade from X.

I don't think that ecstasy is really a children's drug. It's kind of expensive. Maybe 16 year olds and up. And there are plenty of people who have all sorts o long-term effects from ecstasy, but aren't dead. It's that kind of drug. So I heard. I think that you will all agree that it's mainly incorrect for a lawyer to be looking for concert tickets these days.

I agree kids should not fuck around with X. Its seems to do nothing for a while. so you keep taking more and suddenly, pow - you're kicked in the nuts. You're roaming the streets outside your hotel looking at the lights and thinking "Fuck, I neeeed a fifth of whiskey and xanax" at five in the morning.

All that said, like anything else, unless you're a shithead and takes mounds of the stuff, or you have some odd unknown health issue, X ain't likely to do much more than give you a really pleasant evening.

Yesterday I watched a special about what Tylenol can do to your liver. Holy shit. At least X gives you a fucking buzz.

DXM? I think they said several hundred last year, but again, like I said, the number is in question. Kids die. They took cold medicine. A lot of parents didn't know how much cold medicine and didn't bother to ask.

X is illegal at least. It's harder for a 12 year old to get than say a box of Coricidin. I don't think that many 12 year olds are dying from alcohol.

Funny? Back in the day... waaaay back in the day. He's been senile for years. Did you see him guest host for Letterman a few years ago? Paul Shaeffer was better. Bill and Dylan should get together and do a Mumbling in 2005 Tour. Neither one is comprehensible half the time.

X.

Do kids still go to raves? The last rave I went to was in 1994 and everyone was talking then that the "rave" thing was on the way out. A shame really, because the combination of x + music at a rave really helped uncoordinated girls like me believe they could actually dance.

This talk is reminding me of Sarah Polley passing off childrens aspirin as X in the movie Go. Kids are pretty stupid.
