Inbox of Immaturity: Back-to-Back

As one week of immaturity ends, another one begins. This is totally up my alley and hopefully will be up yours as well. Yeah, up yours. While watching Jason perform on Celebrity Rap Superstar annoys me to no end, Justin Bobby does quite the opposite. So you can imagine my excitement to find a JB and Audrina spoof by real actors!

I have been back this site since The Landlord skit that basically launched it, but you can be sure I’ll be checking back in with FunnyorDie soon.

And lastly, may as well remind you all here that the season Finale for A Shot at Love with Tila Tequila is Tuesday night at 10PM. There’s a show that will certainly help make the point of the video above. We all need those writers back working.

What Are You Doing?

Here’s a Monday Morning Mashup! (You all know how I love that alliteration). So I just got to uploading some recent pictures into iPhoto, including one of a ridiculous truck-limo that was trying to park on the west side of Union Square the other night. Additionally, last week I was surprised to see the VMA’s back in my twitter feed (they’d stopped since the show in September) and the tweets from Lil Weezy and Soulja Boy made my day (or hour at least) so I took a screen grab. Now with these two images together, I’d like to imagine we were all there chillin’ in that monster limo freestyling about the Internet.

Badass By Association

I like to say I’m a combination of Seth Godin and Jabar Gaffney. Well, actually I’ve never said that before, but after last night I’m definitely trying to link myself with the latter. You see, I get pretty excited when people with (at least part of) my name perform. Call it “X” by association. In this case, I’m now one step closer to getting the nickname “Crazy Hands” Gaffney on the flag football field.

So when Seth Godin comes through with a hot book or post, I can’t say I’ve ever felt closer to it than others but it does kind of make me want to step up my game as a Seth (a Seth G. at that). Or when Seth Green comes through with a hot video clip (like Chris Cocker) or Robot Chicken episode or character (Kenny, anyone?), I try to up the funny…after being like, “yeah SETH! that’s what’s up!”

And don’t think this is limited to “real people.” In fact, when characters in movies, TV shows, or books are named Seth or Gaffney (yet to see a Seth Gaffney), I reap the benefits. You don’t think girls at bars ever said, “Oh, like Seth Cohen???” That’s right. Jokes and jokes and jokes and spaghetti, spaghetti. How about Seth from Boiler Room? A bit of a whiner, but ran that casino from his house and could make a sell like no other newbie. Not last and certainly not least my sister, Julie “The Cat” Gaffney saving the last shot glove side in the Mighty Ducks 2 shootout with Russia. What? Yes, that’s right. Team USA. Give me a high five for homegirl!

That’s all. If you see my in the hall, throw me something. A pen, stapler, whatever. I’ll catch it…and then I’ll tell you about a Purple Calf…because I’m badass by association.
