Since the night of March 10th, two unlikely bachelors have paired up under one roof. The little kitty known as Bagira moved in with the Gazzuolo known as Dom…temporarily. Since the fellas do not know how long their combination will last, they have decided to go all out and make every night an adventure.

Bagira and Gazzuolo have determined they will chronicle their adventures for future buddies to use as a guideline to living the bachelor buddy dream. Kitties come up to Baggy (short for Bagira) all the time and ask, “Meeeooowwwzers?” If he had a mouse for every time he was questioned in that exact way, he would have more mice than the movie “An American Tail“.

For the first time Bagira answers the constant kitty questions with actions. The adventures of Bagira and Gazzuolo will surprise, entertain, inspire, and even put a smile on your face. Their antics and adventures will make little girls giggle and grown men cry.

Join Bagira and Gazzuolo next time when they: Paint the Town White!

U Down With G.O.P.?

U Down With G.O.P.?

Keep up to date with all of the ridiculousness going on in the Republican party lately.

What happened to the Republican party lately. Have you seen the faces they came up with to fill the gaps of missing conservatives? They have reached out to 3 individuals lately that are excellent examples of why the Republicans just don’t get it.

Johnathan Krohan

Johnathan Krohn is 14 years young. In fact, he just turned 14. Johnathan has yet to drive, be able to buy cigarettes or alcohol, or even vote. He has not had sex with a woman, claimed that gays are an abomination and then had sex with a man, or has he experienced a lot of other things that we all look back on and say, “Fuck me, what was I thinking.” He is a kid.

What is he speaking at your CPAC convention for, republicans? He does not have any life experiences yet. What does he know about conservatism? For Halloween he put all of his candy in a bowl and only ate one piece a day so as to not waste his goods. Plus, he dressed as Sarah Palin. So naturally…he is a conservative.

We understood experience didn’t matter when Palin was the 2009 Republican Vice-Presidential nominee, but at least Palin was tough and shot down defenseless animals. This kid’s balls haven’t even dropped.

Watch his speech and see how a 14 year old is able to blow away a room filled of conservatives. In all honesty, at least he delivers shit he heard, or read about in a book, well. That’s a start.

Michael Steele

Let’s just get to the point. Steele is black. We get it Republicans. The Democrats’ guy won, he’s black…I see where you are going with this. A few problems:

  1. Black people have seen they can be president. A second potential black leader or head of a party…not so fast. They got one through, a second so soon has trick or scam written all over it.
  2. The Dem’s black guy can play basketball.
  3. Steele wears glasses. Nerd!
  4. Steele forces slang terms into his vocabulary like that old guy who tries to be hip with the “youth’s” language.
  5. Alanis Morissette called. She says to remind Steele that he is a black Republican.
  6. Steele bows down to Hexxus.

Rush Limbaugh

It seems every news show these days is asking if Rush Limbaugh, a radio personality, is the head of the Republican party. Just because he says ridiculuos things and has a lot of listeners should not make him the leader. Republican politicians belittle him and say he is just an entertainer, and then they apologize because they are afraid he will bitch about them the next day on his show. When did Republicans turn into the little kid who thinks Disney is run by Mickey Mouse? Rush is just the rodent…the fat rat that scares people. He is not the head of anything.

The sad thing is that as long as I keep writing about him, the news keeps talking about him, and other forms of media push his name, he will grow stronger. Spreading hate, fear, and polluting everything around him. I’ve seen this before. He grows off of a little bit of fear and hate then begins to manufacturer more. Thus, he grows larger.

You may recognize Rush in “Fern Gully” as Hexxus.

Don’t be that guy. Everyone knows or has at one point interacted with that elevator guy. That guy comes in all types, as well. There are many different elevator guys that will span the gauntlet from annoying and rude to weird and awkward. Let us discover and remember that guy together.

The Broken Compass

The broken compass is that guy who walks into the elevator, hits his floor, and just stares at you: face to face. They have no sense of proper elevator etiquette or direction. The rules are:

  1. You hit your floor button.
  2. You turn around to face the doors.
  3. You say nothing!

Don’t be that guy who makes the other passengers uncomfortable by staring at them for the course of 12 floors. Us working compasses have done nothing wrong and yet we suffer. When you are a passenger to the side you see, out of your peripheral, this situation from time to time. That guy threatens you breaking the 3rd rule! How can you not laugh at the awkwardness of this scene in which two strangers are staring directly at each other while trying to not stare at each other? You can’t! Rule 3 broken. You are that guy, or in this case, that other guy.

Elevator’s Rogue Gallery

There are many other elevator users known as “That Guy”.

  • The Dutch-Ovener – Farter
  • The Hot Boxer – Smoker dragging in his smoke smell
  • The English Impatient – Constantly pushes floor button or close elevator door button at every stop
  • The Chatter Box(s) – Usually comes in a group of 2 or more. If alone, do not make eye contact. They are like retards. The second you make eye contact they have to come over to you and retard-chat your head off: Nothing coherent or worth listening to. “great. Yeah, i think the bronze for shot-put in the Special Olympics is great.” Its just awkward and you can’t get away.
  • The Fat Lazy Bastard – Gets off at the second floor while everyone on the elevator is going to the 8th floor and up. Check out the Vlog below, by Wpromote, to further understand that guy.

Please, don’t ruin the elevator for the rest of us. Don’t be…that guy.

My first memory of Late Night with Conan O’Brien was in the summer of 1994. It was the summer in between my 5th and 6th grade year. I was sleeping over at a new friend’s house learning the then new Magic the Gathering card game and staying up to watch the then new Late Night with Conan O’Brien. (I also watched an old British show called Red Dwarf). I, of course, being 11 years old did not understand much of the humor, but Conan and Andy had goofy memorable faces. At the time, that was good enough.

Once I was in middle school I began to stay up later. This lead to my first late television watching: scrambled porn. Couldn’t quite get a picture on my room’s TV. Plus, it was just scrambled HBO anyway; but late at night, it’s porn to a 11 year old. After about 5 minutes…I would switch to The Late Show with David Letterman on CBS.

Letterman was my first late television show love. I used to love when he sent Rupert Jee., of the Hello Deli, out to say what Dave told him to say through a hidden headset. Dave had great and memorable interviews with Madonna, Julia Roberts, and Regis Philbin (not to forget Dave’s mindful comments after 9/11). It is ironic that the show I came to appreciate even more, is the same show that Letterman started back in the year of my birth (1982): Late Night. Check out Conan’s first appearance on Late Night here.

Late Nights with Late Night

I started staying up just a little later as I got older. Watching Conan became a standard ritual which also lead to me being tired every day of the week except Saturdays and Sundays. Late Night shaped my humor and to this day I still enjoy the plainly stupid: The laugh for the sake of how dumb something is.

In college I used to order off the Wendy’s dollar menu, when the double stack was made correctly, and watch Late Night every night with my Andy Ricter: Fish. I failed classes by not going due to being so damn tired. And you know what? I’d fail so many more classes to be in that Cone-zone every week night from 12:30 to 1:30.

Some Late Night Favorites

  • The Fedex Pope – I was him for one Halloween
  • Conan’s trips to other places – Finland and Ireland to name a few
  • Triumph the Insult Comic Dog – Star Wars episode II is the best
  • The K-9 with a gun
  • The final Hunter S. Thompson interview

Final Goodbye

The show was unquestionably funny, so when the last episode aired I did not have to see jokes to remind me of what the show is. I came to respect Conan and his Late Night team to the point that I would rather just see him remember good times with me, the viewer. I watched till the end and heard his thank yous and goodbyes. I even started getting a bit emotional when he started to do so.

Will Conan’s show be the same? Will it be better? What Conan’s future holds is uncertain, but what Conan’s past gave me will be remembered always. Thanks Conan. I will miss Late Night with Conan O’Brien.
