Broken Glass Makes Me Laugh

This may seem cruel, mocking and unpleasant to you. And I do not disagree that it has its vile and childish side. But comedy has no friends, mad people are funny, and it's not news that I'm an arsehole sometimes.

"Got a haircut, got a silver tooth, gonna get myself arrested"

I forgot to mention in my last entry, the end of Snakes on a Plane has a terrible music video in which Samuel L. Jackson appears and I think he’s reading the latest 100 Bullets paperback, Strychnine Lives. It just caught my eye, and I hadn't seen it mentioned anywhere else.

I went in for my annual shearing yesterday, the yearly haircut where I go from rock star to cinema idol, except I’m keeping a beard right now, so the look wasn’t so much "rock star" as "messiah." Actually, when I first saw my brother upon getting back to Vancouver, he looked at the long hair and the beard and said, “What are you? Pirates of the Caribbean?” Funny guy. He’s getting smothered in his sleep.

And finally, here’s a great take off on Grand Theft Auto in a Coke commercial. Coke may be evil, but they make entertaining commercials.

What's evil about Coke is that it tastes so good...

Yeah I noticed the 100 bullets thing too, that's pretty neat! I wonder whose idea that was?

When you write "I’m keeping a beard right now" it reads as if you're raising it on a ranch.
