Things you find funnier than you probably should

[TimBuktu]

Man, that Lana Del Rey thing is funny, maybe exactly as funny as it should be.

I stared at that for a second, unamused, then it all sunk in and burst into laughter. I think what did it for me was slowly scanning from the artist's proud face, to the drawing, to the subject's face, back to the drawing, then back to the artist still looking so happy about it all.

I'm pretty sure I find this exactly as funny as I should, but I don't know where else to put it:

That link made me click through to Mary Haggerty's other Eat Beat articles. Here's a favorite clip;

The pizza tasted so good I planned on returning to the buffet table for more on a recent visit to the Italian Moon on South Washington Street.

But after eating all the other choices I made going through the first time, I decided against it. I had taken a dab of this and a dab of that, including sunflower seeds, black olives, ham, pickled beets. I had planned to try the chicken pot pie soup because it is a favorite.

But there is a limit to how much a person could — or should — eat. Some people can handle a lot. Others are moderate. And I notice that many of the customers at the Moon go back through the salad bar, where there are fresh slices of different pizzas available all the time.

That's why they say, DON'T FILL UP ON SUNFLOWER SEEDS AND BLACK OLIVES. It's a wonder she was ever able to eat again!!

The Italian Moon is known for its pizza and pasta. But it also offers a wide variety, including Mexican dinners, burgers, pasta, wraps, salads and broasted chicken. The extensive menu also includes barbecued ribs, shrimp and Canadian walleye dinners.

I had the same reaction. It has a slow build, but then I couldn't stop laughing. The artist is what seals it.

Update: Marilyn Hegarty just don't give a fuck - http://blogs.villagevoice.com/forkintheroad/2012/03/olive_garden_review_marilyn_hegarty.php

[scamboogah]

I'd like to find the winners that are sending Marilyn emails calling her pathetic and kick their teeth down their throats.

[TimBuktu]

The whole thing kind of bothers me. It's a tiny town and they got a fucking Olive Garden. Enjoy the fact that you have access to other options, but don't be a dick about it.

[P-Dub]

I can't stop reading these.

There is a mural on one wall showing Mexicans surrounded by cactus and peppers. Real Mexicans might be amazed to see food served buffet-style.

One person in line said there aren’t any Qdobas in Canada and wanted to try it. Canadians are adventurous about food.

Going back to that Gail lady who is in love with Brent Spiner, this site:

http://www.churchofgail.com/

seems to be made by people who are just having fun at her expense; she doesn't have the skills to make a page this good, and the posts in the forums are all by Matt McConaghey, Vladamir Putin and Gerard Butler. Here is a post from Putin, note the Simpsons reference:

"Most Sexual lover Gail,

Evil demon possess take over our computer technology. I catch the demon who materialize in the church server and dispach-kill him with multitude of Judo chops. We now regained control of forum, but the computer sattelite technology is still infect with evil Jesuit. Most masculine lover, don't use the brain to brain! It is danger until we can remove the devils from sattelites.

This trouble make me loose my horny,
Vladimir Putin"

Either she's working really too hard as a bad joke, or she is clearly mentally deficient and needs help. Either way it smells bad.

Those posts by "Vladimir Putin" and the emails she has on her site are depressing. It's pretty obvious she's mentally ill and doesn't have a firm grasp on reality, she has pages & pages of emails from shitheads pretending to be the people she's obsessed with.

[smartbunny]

But the Putin posts are funny! Offering a "pearl necklace" and then she writes back, in detail, about what kind of jewelry she likes, completely missing the sexual part. "Taking away my horny"? I think the CoG site is someone else entirely. And can just anyone register? I didn't try but it all "her" and "her marriage list" men.

As for Gail herself, she is a high-functioning paranoid schizo and there seems to be no one that thinks she is a danger or who can help her.

Go to 1:55 of this video. When I was a kid this sneezing thing was so funny I'd watch this entire stupid fucking movie just to see this one scene. In all honesty, I only said this movie was stupid because I'm old now -- this movie is in my heart and in my soul and I love it.

[Teaflax]

If you change the bit after youtubecom/ to read watch?v=X7b-LfSFqd0 add then add "&t=1m55s" to it, it'll start at 1.55. If you're like me and can't be fucking bothered to remember how to do it, use youtubetime.com to get the full URL.
