I‘m referring for once not to me but Curtiss… the jackass who does fucked up shit with enemas and things and now writes about it in his PIC column… Also don't forget Chris Phelan. But i'm sure this is old news.
And since Court hasn't been blogging lately, I figured I'd fulfill that whole “PIC Behind the scenes” role.
New babies… new new babies. Ah let's break it down into a easy to swallow format:
NEW POINTSINCASE COLUMNISTS = (For you)
– More chances for laughter.
– More chances for suck.
– 8 columns, 4 Wed, 4 Sun. Nice and even. I wonder how many the average reader tackles? Week-in Week-out? This sunday will be X-mas eve. How long til you check those arties out? Do you ever go back and give a past “bad” column a chance? Do you still read Nate after deciding week after week that he's still an asshole? YOU TELL ME!
– “I'm going to leave a scathing comment”
– “Oh man, That part, where you talked about her…*breaks into laughter*… had me rolling on the floor… AT THE OFFICE. I'm now fired you fucking attention whore.”
– A chance to tease a introverted humor writer into thinking that you and him will someday DO IT, while still knowing that possibility will never come to fruition. All of the fun, none of the guilt. (so true, Rebello)
– An increase in likelihood that you aren't reading this blog… right now. Dammit.
NEW POINTSINCASE COLUMNISTS = (for me)
– More money from editing!
– More editing. FUCK!
– A more varied spectrum of writing that I shall study and dissect to further my position as comedy scholar.
– A varied specturm of writing that shall provoke my jealous nature as it is “better” and “Bro-worthier.”
– Not to mention hindering my attempts, through lack of time and confidence, to launch my new column. (OMG did he just leak that for the first time… and possibly in an attempt to make it public and thereby force himself to get around to it? yes.)
– “So Alli, as your editor, it is my charge to insert monstrous, intimidating diction into your piece. Are you savvy to my insinuation?”
– “So Curtiss… Phelan and I are going to make out later, wanna join?”
– Seriously does anybody read this?
On a final note I'll just put it this way. PIC is one writer away from being in its 2nd generation of writers, maybe 3rd depending on how you look at it. Go check out the old columns section, it's kinda creepy. WOoooooooOOoooooo. Ghosts of PIC PAST!!!
While were at it, let's remember when Dane Cook was a funny guy who tickled me in so many ways instead of a national sell-out tool.
I know I'm on the bitter comics bandwagon, but just like Family Guy and Anchorman, all good things must die once people you hate start to like them.
I probably just lost 5 readers… which is only half so that's cool.
