Pass the People, Please

Check out the blog post in The New Yorker about a typo in a cooking book that says:

"salt and freshly ground black people".

Bad bad bad, Penguin Australia. You guys need some fresh eyes.

South Park Season Premiere

If you didn't catch it tonight, try and see the season premiere of South Park. They tackled the Tiger Woods debacle by rendering it a video game and crafting an entire story about how the CDC was claiming that sex addiction was a virus present in youth that proliferated with wealth and success. South Park does such a good job at satirizing pop culture, throwing out any balance of judgment of taste and saying whatever the hell they want (which sometimes is overwhelmingly crude, but at other times just spot on).

I'm watching Ugly Americans and can't tell if I like it or not...a version of Manhattan where monsters and demons populate the streets is somewhat hard to process, but I'm trying to give it a chance. Despite its exaggerated characters, it's almost too literal in its stereotypes. The drawings are pretty interesting, though. I could maybe see it working more like a comic book than an animated show, though. But whatever.
...
Now that the episode is over, I think it lacks depth and humor. We'll see how many episodes it lasts for (though there were ads all over Gawker just now).

I'm just looking forward to watching this new ep of Jon Stewart with Snoop Dogg. Yessss.

HMC

I like what you did, Jimmy Kimmel.

This made me LOL

Maybe because I'm in a funny mood? Or I'm in a grammar-jokes mood? Same difference? ...

SNL: Sigourney Weaver

She's one of my favorite actresses. No explanation needed.

Check out the first sketch with Larry King, Jay Leno and Conan O'Brian. So funny.

Andy Samberg

Is my hero.

Enjoy one of the few sketches from last night's ep of SNL that were actually funny.
