Best Penis

Some people wonder how to get rid of spam. I use my spam folder to help sort my email. There is some "spam" that I actually read. Some are subscriptions others are from websites that I belong to. I keep them in the junk folder because I don't want them to clutter up my inbox. Most though are unwanted emails. And occasionally, I get an email that crosses the line.

I just got an email in my spam folder that really caught my attention. It was from some guy who calls himself Best Penis. Well, I assume it is a guy. But seriously, Best Penis!? Of all the nerve! How dare he? He's never seen my penis.

And what criteria is he using to decide his is Best Penis? Weight, size, shape? Maybe colour or texture? Taste?

But then I read the rest of the email and he wrote, "resale it the of good full now is value. future retail you are and an you be previous the able little decide generations said, if their will be this products if you back new plateau on Apple iPhone prices a prices it 10." And then everything became clear. (??) The rest of the email talked about a male enlargement supplement. I think he is referring to doughnuts.

I Phoned The Zoo But The Lion Was Busy

It was my sister-in-law's birthday yesterday. As the good brother-in-law I called to wish her a happy birthday. I called the house - they had already left for dinner. So, I called her cell phone. I dialled 514-555-5555 and a man with an East European type accent answered. My brother screwing around.
"Hey idiot," I said, "put your wife on the phone."
"Who ees dis?" The voice replied.
"Quit screwing around, I have to go, I want to wish her a happy birthday."
"Whoareyew, why areyew calling?"
Hmm... I think I got the wrong number. That's why I always send emails.

I've Got a Boner

I was going to call this post 'Things I don't say anymore', but, 'I've got a boner' has a better ring to it. As for the reason I don't say it any more, it is not because I don't have one. I mean to say it's not that I have one at the moment. I probably just don't talk about it as much.
But just like boners, expressions come and go. The terms we use also change, many are influenced by pop culture and the latest TV shows. The 50s term 'cool' was replaced in the seventies by 'keen'. Along came Happy Days and back came 'cool'. It's never really gone away since. The 80s brought 'gnarly', and some of the 'douches' I worked with in the late 80s and went to college with in the 90s used the word 'dandy' for the same thing. The term 'douche' only became more popular in the last couple years. I find it the perfect expression for the fool that tries too hard to be 'cool'. When did 'rad' come along?

I scoured my brain and then asked some friends for some suggestions

-Airhead replaced the less popular space cadet
-Barf Me Out - Were you a Valley Girl? Never a term I used. Perhaps the poor cousin of "Gross".
-Big Time - I used this for a while, big time.
-Bite me - Later became 'Eat me'. Eat me was the better term because not only could it be a response to an offending question, not only an insult, but also a slightly humorous, slightly flirtatious comment to be made at inappropriate times. Trust me, I have made plenty of inappropriate comments at inappropriate times.
-Bubba - replaceable with "man", as in "Hey man" or "Hey bubba". This came out of the late 90s TV series Nash Bridges. I used it from time to time and the expression caught on just as much as the TV show. That's to say, not a whole lot. A colleague of mine had a man crush on me and overheard me using it. Ten years later he still calls me bubba.
-Sup - As in 'What is Up?', or 'How are you?'
-As if!Popularized by Alicia Silverstone in Clueless.
-Don't go there! - One of the most overused expressions. So, please, don't go there.
-Dude - Another 80s term that resurfaced. Use it as a noun or as an exclamation. 'Hey dude'. Or, 'Dude!'.
-TMIToo much information.
-What a Fag - I swear, I haven't called anyone a fag since I was in grade three. 
-Doy - A bastardization of 'Duh'. The sarcastic 'No Shit'.
- Keep it wet - No clue how this started, or what the hell it means.
-Woof - See previous
There are more out there, great expressions and insults to really pwn someone. Damn! I can't think of any more.


Heineken : Walk-in Fridge Campaign

I love the new Heineken commercial. Well, it is new in Canada, from the number of viewers on Youtube and the date of it's release it is not so new after all. The commercial, referred to as the Heineken walk-in fridge ad has spawned a couple sequels. I laugh every time I see it.


And here is one of the terrific sequels


Here is a terrific spoof of the Heineken walk in fridge, I wish it were real.


Here is Bavaria's campaign, also a spoof


After the original video went viral Heineken added a new twist by leaving these supposed walk-in fridge  boxes on the streets of Amsterdam on garbage day, perhaps adding to the hype, perhaps fooling people into believing that the fridges were a hot new sales item.

When All You Need Is a Punchline

Laugh
I got together with some friends the other day over coffee. My friend Peter told his son a joke. The joke was not funny. The punchline was. "They taste better when you get the poo out first."
It is one of those kickers that sticks in the mind. It got me thinking about other great punchlines.

A classic punchline is funny by itself, reminds you of a great joke, or is a classic for pure staying power. I wrote down the few that I could think of and listed them for you, all in alphabetical order. I know I am missing a lot. Help me out.

  • Because they taste funny
  • Chunks is my dog.
  • Do you have anything to stop this coffin?
  • He was looking for Pooh.
  • I don't even know her.
  • I was talking to the duck.
  • I'll have the soup.
  • No soap, radio.
  • No, I said grab the buoys.
  • No, I said she was fucking Goofy.
  • No, I told her she had acute angina
  • Orange you glad I didn't say banana?
  • That's not my finger.
  • That's what she said.
  • Then the doctor says, "OK, now it's my turn to cough!
  • To get to the other side.
  • We're the Aristocrats!
  • Wood eye!
  • You're Thor? My ath ith killing me.
