100 Word Story: Say Goodnight, Chuck Palahniuk! by Matthew Brian Cohen

The problem, the way I see it, is that everyone wants to be Tyler fucking Durden, or that asshole who wrote him, or the even bigger asshole who casted him as Brad fucking Pitt.

I’ve got nothing against Chuck Palahniuk as a person. He does a lot for the homeless and I bet he carpools when possible. But his book has made everyone espouse philosophical nothings that were written, rewritten, and edited by some W.W. Norton dick and the Hollywood executive who gave the face of nihilism a chiseled jaw.

Fiction, I suppose, runs deeper than I thought.

100 Word Story:  George Carlin’s Death by Matthew Brian Cohen

I wish I died when George Carlin died. Not because he meant anything to me, and not out of any suicidal beliefs. I just had enough of this stupid rock and Carlin always seemed to have a good handle on things.

Maybe this will get better, or maybe he wasn’t ready to go quite yet. But my guess is it won’t, and he was, and even the very best of us won’t last.

The headstones have overrun the sidewalks in a cold, humorless irony, but it’s too late to back out now. Comedy, and death, hinges entirely on the timing.

I don’t know who drew this, but I think it’s clever and funny. Thanks to whatever person on the Internet did this.

Like most real Americans, I’m a huge proponent of traditional marriage, between a white man and a no-property-owning harem of rapeable white women. Remember: almost every society in the world had slaves at one point, too.

I’ve imported this blog to facebook, so maybe more people will read it maybe. You can check it out on my facebook notes if you are friends with me on facebook. If you are not friends with me, friend me! And maybe I will accept.

Honestly, sometimes the jokes just write themselves:

“The father of 3-year-old Adolf Hitler Campbell, denied a birthday cake with the child’s full name on it by one New Jersey supermarket…The Campbells’ other two children also have unusual names: JoyceLynn Aryan Nation Campbell turns 2 in a few months and Honszlynn Hinler Jeannie Campbell will be 1 in April.

I can never turn down anything Wu-Tang related…
