JERRY SEINFELD: COMEDY REPRESSION THERAPIST

 JERRY SEINFELD: COMEDY REPRESSION THERAPIST

http://www.hulu.com/watch/258350/the-daily-show-with-jon-stewart-comedy-repression-therapy 

With an easy target for mocking like Marcus Bachmann, Michelle Bachmann's gay repression therapist of America who acts and sounds like he's repressing a little gay of his own, Jon Stewart admits he has a problem with temptation. The temptation to make cheap jokes about Marcus Bachmann. Jokes like,  "he's so gay he calls Top Gun 'that volleyball movie," which, though hilarious and satisfying, are below a satirist such as himself... kind of.


To help with this debilitating problem, little known creator of The Marriage Ref, Jerry Seinfeld, is called to help with his skills in comedy repression. He coaches Jon through digging deeper into a joke than just getting laughs from the funny tone of one's voice (a great self-deprecating jab), and what not to do, like say things like, "he's so gay Richard Simmons tells him to tone it down." If only Marcus Bachmann was telling gay men what not to do by doing that thing himself. That wouldn't be as funny as it would be completely expected to be revealed in the near future.

And in between these examples of "cheap jokes," Seinfeld slaps Jon Stewart a few times. Because as everyone knows, slapping is without question the oldest and best form of comedy.

MICHELLE BACHMANN'S REVISIONIST AMERICA

  MICHELLE BACHMANN'S REVISIONIST AMERICA http://www.youtube.com/watch? v=5RCH1nQ1u4I&feature=player_ embedded When it comes to history, especially political history, accuracy isn't nearly as important as the spirit behind it. It's not what happened in the past that matters, it's how you feel right now. And if you have to make up stuff from the past to make people feel something in the present, then, by God, that's what history is for.  Jimmy Kimmel shows us his take on Michelle Bachmann's interpretation of history, which is like Sarah Palin's story of Paul Revere, which one might call  slightly  dubious, times a made up number.  It actually looks more like a pitch for a new Jerry Bruckheimer and Michael Bay movie that will eventually star Nicholas Cage and Angelina Jolie about the history of America. I may not believe in democracy anymore, but I'm proud to believe King James was a cross dresser and George Washington and Abraham Lincoln fought togeth...

DIVORCED DAD COOKING SHOW

  DIVORCED DAD COOKING SHOW http://www.youtube.com/watch? v=6r2NfLRsjrc Father's Day seems distinctly different from Mother's Day, and not just because one parents loves you more than the other. While Mother's Day generally means you treat your mom to a nice day of doing stuff for her and lots of attention, in my experience the best gift you can give your dad is to leave him alone for a G-D minute to watch the History Channel in peace. Unless your dad is a divorced dad. Remember, they count too, and deserve up to 40% of your love on selected weekends.  This depressing cooking show for divorced dads, presented by the consistently amazing Rue Brutalia, opens a window into the pathetic existence of this demographic of men. Men who have no choice but to revert to their living quality as a college student, because without a wife, that's basically what they are. But don't worry, they're doing great! They're doing great! They're doing... great.

STEVE ZINGS THE MOVIES

  STEVE ZINGS THE MOVIES http://www.youtube.com/watch? v=4O4MhkCb_IE http://www.youtube.com/watch? v=ZKJfa3HQTwg&feature=related Film criticism is usually pretty stupid. The only way for it to get better is if it gets stupider. Internet, meet Steve Soroka. Comedian, improviser (as you'll see) and part of sketch duo BoF: Best of Friends, Steve has taken criticism at its truest form, the zing, and worked exclusively in that acute speciality, taking film criticism to new heights.  The idea: his friend Chris Roberti reads off random movie titles, and Steve zings them. It's so simple it can't not be good. Here is their latest, as well as a Best Of Zings compilation to get you acclimated. These are some of my favorite zings: Heaven Can wait: No it can't! (gun shot sound) As Good As It Gets: you make me wanna see a better movie Silence Of The Lambs, ugh, I wish 12 angry men: make it 13! Anaconda: too long! Fools Rush In: fools rush out! 2 thumbs up! (reverse zing!) Somethi...
