Jackass

Man's greatest achievement is a franchise... Jackass. Johnny Knoxville, Bam Margera, Steve-O, and Chris Pontius have all created the rawest enjoyment in human history: pain. Jackass is God's gift to humanity, telling us that we can laugh at a nut-shot every half hour at 11PM.

Shit

"I didn't make a blog post today," said Johnny with vigor.

Phone

I'm getting it in the mail on Friday. If I don't get it Friday, I'm going to bum SO HARD. Arguably the hardest I have ever bummed before. Well, shit, at least I'm able to get a phone.

IT SUCKS TO LOSE A PHONE.

Mail

This is great news: I expected getting my phone today, it's probably coming tomorrow or Friday. Or maybe even Saturday. I've been without a phone since Monday, January 25th. Awesome

Adam Sandler

He should really make a sequel to Happy Gilmore. I finished watching that movie and all I could think was, "...that's it? What happened to Shooter McGavin?"

Also, it's to be noted that when I was looking up the name Shooter McGavin on Wikipedia, somebody edited the Happy Gilmore page and written "HOMO" a few hundred times.

Regan

He had very nice hair! Too bad he had to give crack to the hood.
