My New Haircut
At least once in your life, grow your hair long and shaggy. You'll be surprised by all the attention you receive when you finally get it cut. Nice haircut.

I hear they like to threaten people with torture and fire for all eternity if you don't follow their cult. I hear they slaughter Muslims in crusades and have chopped, burned, and drowned millions with the help of the govts they help run. They also say on the 4th day god created the sun, but there wouldn't be "day" without the sun. I mean, WOW! People, come on, out of the thousands of gods man have written books of, this one is just as logical as the ones it copied off that people gave up on in the past. I've read this from cover to cover as a child, a young adult, and recently.
Customer Reviews: The Holy Bible: King James Version
My wife and I were actually quite impressed with this item. Between the two of us it took 9 days to finish and I must say I found it hard to get used to during the first few sittings, but gradualy became more comfortable as time went on. Although neither of us paid too much attention to the content, the sheer volume and quality of the paper contained within was pleasantly suprizing. The paper feels crisp, heavy and tough, yet the pages seperate with just the slightest tug of a thumb and forefinger.

Twice Shy
Well, all, after a year of Twice Shy, it's time to say goodbye. I've had a great time making comics for you, and while they're not all winners, some of them weren't bad, and a select few were pretty darned good. (And my Chris Meloni experience will be one of the highlights of my entire life, I'm sure.) Thanks to Bite (especially Rob Scott and Crystal Gibson) for all their support and encouragement, and thanks to my parents for finding my comic hilarious and not something worth disowning me for.

My dad was the tall one and if I tried to get bigger than my size-three britches before my time he’d have thumped me senseless and been right to do it. It’s disrespectful. He called me “short stack” or “shorty” or “hey you” and I was grateful for the attention. You’re not supposed to be taller than your old man until he starts to stoop over from age and is ready for a rocker and long afternoons sipping iced tea spiked with gin.Biting/Satirical Pieces

For 3 years you YouTubers have been ripping us off, taking tens of thousands of our videos and putting them on YouTube. Now the tables are turned. It's time for us to take matters into our own hands. We know who you are, we know where you live and we could come after you in ways too horrible to tell. But being the extraordinarily nice chaps we are, we've figured a better way to get our own back: We've launched our own Monty Python channel on YouTube.

Girl on the Contrary
I was thinking the other day about how doctors get to say “Hi my name is Doctor McDoctorson, M.D.” or “My name is Doctor McDoctorson, Ph.D.” or rich people get to say “My name is Richy McRicherson, Esquire.” And I was thinking it might be really cool if everyone got to have a title but it was just something factual about their life instead of some kind of accolade. Also, I think doing it that way would really go a long way in solving the have v. have-not situation. I mean, obviously it wouldn’t solve the entire problem but it would be like a really good starting place.theonlygi reblogged this from zayh and added: mavverick liked this aintjustalittledoppelganger reblogged this from wowfunniestposts artsya liked this supplierofallthingsworthwhile reblogged this from i-dream-in-technicolour rixaibanez liked this
