Comedy [Carlin, Hicks, Bruce, ...]

Today one of my 4th grade students renamed himself "reconecting ..." on our Zoom call and pretended that he was having internet issues to avoid participating in our lesson.

[Video] The Koch’s woke up to a full grown moose in their pool. Ministry of natural resources is on their way. It’s been about 2 hours.





Update: CTV News Ottawa’s Saron Fanel reports the moose has jumped out of the pool and left the backyard of the south-end home. We will have updates as they become available. https://ottawa.ctvnews.ca/ottawa-man-shocked-to-find-moose-in-swimming-pool-1.4960090

The moose has been swimming around in the pool at the home near Hunt Club Road and Uplands Drive, later moving to the shallow end to stand up.

It's not clear whether the animal is trying to find a way out of the pool, or simply enjoying a cool bath.
 
A dating app where you watch a comedy video and you match with people based on which part of the video you laughed at most. This is either brilliant or evidence that I only got 2 hours of sleep last night.
 


George Carlin's brilliant 'whiny Boomer' rant was decades ahead of its time
George Carlin's brilliant 'whiny Boomer' rant was decades ahead of its time

"OK Boomer" is a catchphrase that has come to perfectly encapsulate the generational divide in modern American politics. It has also led to some moments of pure comedy gold.

But it turns out that one of the great all-time standup comedic minds was literally decades ahead of the game when it came to dragging Boomers for selfish, hypocritical, and entitled behavior. In his 1996 stand up special "Back in Town" George Carlin devoted a glorious two minutes and twenty-seven seconds to putting Boomers in their place.

"A lot of these cultural crimes I'm complaining about can be blamed on the Baby Boomers," Carlin says, beginning what would become a now legendary rant.

"I'm getting tired of hearing about Boomers," Carlin continues. "Whiny, narcissistic, self-indulgent people with a simple philosophy: 'GIMME IT, IT'S MINE!' 'GIMME THAT, IT'S MINE!' These people were given everything. Everything was handed to them. And they took it all: sex, drugs, and rock and roll, and they stayed loaded for 20 years and had a free ride."

"But now they're staring down the barrel of middle-age burnout, and they don't like it. So they've turned self-righteous. They want to make things harder on younger people. They tell 'em, abstain from sex, say no to drugs; as for the rock and roll, they sold that for television commercials a long time ago...so they could buy pasta machines and Stairmasters and soybean futures."
 
RIP Carl Reiner

Carl Reiner, Comedy Patriarch, Dies at 98

If Carl Reiner had written a deathbed memoir, it would have been titled Exit Laughing. After all, the legendary comedy writer, performer, and director had already published Enter Laughing and Continue Laughing. Having conquered TV, movies, Broadway, and traditional publishing over his seven-decade-plus career, Reiner spent his last years mastering e-books and Twitter, writing and tweeting until Monday night, when he died at age 98 in his Beverly Hills home, TMZ reports. Reiner died of natural causes, Variety writes. He was prolific til the end, even sitting for an interview in an episode of the YouTube series “Dispatches from Quarantine” that premiered on June 22.
 
Y’all

My girlfriend lives in the Hamptons.... and her 20 year old son has been living with them since March (covid) he’s a Junior... going back to school. She was cleaning his room and found ONE HUNDRED THOUSAND DOLLARS in cash.

They went through the whole “it must be drugs” or “he must have stolen it”

But nah - are you ready?!?!

His father forced him to tell the truth. Said he was calling the cops and would turn the money in.

His son confessed that in early April he struck up a conversation with a rich older woman at a local sandwich and seafood shop about how he had tested negative....

and was relieved to be staying on the island. (Out of the city)

He said she paid for her large order in all $100s and then asked him if he needed to make some money for the summer - she and her friends were looking for a young man to help out - who was negative for Covid.

Long story short - HE WAS SMASHING THE RICH OLDER LADIES FOR CASH - basically he was the Hamptons Ho.... and raised all cash - $5k a pop - from April to August and my friend is devastated and I’m like he’s a whole Patrick Dempsey
