Humor and comedy from all geeky fandoms.

Should we allow people to be sued over a joke?
Can a joke ever go so far that it leads to a 10-year court battle? Apparently, it can. Back in 2010, Canadian comedian Mike Ward performed a 90-minute stand-up act that included a bit about Canadian celebrities who he believed were "sacred cows" that were considered too rich and powerful to be made fun of. In that bit he roasted Celine Dion, her husband Rene Angelil, and a young singer named Jeremy Gabriel.

Hilarious Nihilism
As someone who actually doesn’t watch a lot of television, and who doesn’t have satellite, Hulu, Netflix, or any other streaming service, it’s weird for me to talk about the shows I like, much less write about them.

It's not actually that sunny in Philadelphia. Top Story - February 2021.
It’s Always Sunny in Philadelphia. Sounds lovely, doesn’t it? Like the name of a wholesome family entertainment show. Perhaps a light-hearted comedy where a group of old friends who own a bar get into a few scrapes but it all turns out all right in the end. Well, the irony begins with the title. It’s Always Sunny is one of the craziest, darkest sitcoms ever to hit our screens.

'Toast of London': Binge on the Silliest Thing on the Small-Screen
I have lots of 'go-to' programmes if I need my spirits lifted. But none lifts them as much as the ridiculous 'Toast of London' does.

Idiot Sandwich Has Entered The Chat
You don't have to be an avid supporter of Gordon Ramsay or James Corden's fan to be a sucker for memes. You might ask yourself why a college student would think back on a meme from six years ago and not only write a whole article about it but draw inspiration from it - especially amidst an ongoing pandemic.

When the World is Upside-Down, I Watch Yu-Gi-Oh!
Here’s a secret: When I was a kid, I didn’t have cable. This meant in the late 99s/early 00’s, unless I wanted to play with the textured spackle on my ceiling, I had to watch…whatever was on basic channels.

How I Met the Show about Meeting Your Mother. Third Place in Guilty Pleasure Binge Challenge.
I will be the first to admit that I am the worst person to begin watching anything longer than twenty minutes. I tend to stay away from long films and series with lots of seasons as I am not particularly eager e one place for too long at any given time. When I begin watching something with my partner, I begin to get restless, and my attention soon diverts to something else. A couple of minutes later, I have entirely lost the storyline's plot, and before I know it, I have lost all interest in the show.

U Heard Right, Barred Owl
No, it doesn’t end in an “N” as in BarN Owl, it’s Barred Owl. If you live in the midwest or eastern part of the United States you may be familiar with this species; out west only in select areas. The first time you hear its call, you’re convinced it’s a prank by the neighborhood kids, or at minimum a crazy hunter. No way is this the sound of a real animal, to paraphrase, “Who cooks for you?” to a loud “WHO COOKS FOR YOU?” Several of them together, a parliament of owls, make it even more unbelievable. If you’re a lifelong city dweller, you’ll need to see them with your own two eyes for verification (they have up to a four foot wingspan).
