Free Uncle Sid
Hey guys, I know I mostly post silly stuff here, but I’m going to switch gears for a moment. I need your help. I’ve started a petition to have my Uncle Sid released from federal prison, and I’d be indebted to you if you’d sign it. In 2004, Sidney Gordon Ferris, a good Christian man, was arrested and sentenced to life in prison for leaving the beach without buying a box of...

I built a vending machine that’s a cross between a Redbox and a crane game. That’s right, my friend; you’re gonna need a little skill and A LOT of luck if you wanna borrow my Blu-ray edition of Air Bud 2: Golden Receiver.

Scooby Snax, Take 2
Police in Chicago seized $200,000 worth of marijuana in packages labeled “Scooby Snax.” Which explains why I just caught my dogs trying to sync Pink Floyd with The Wizard of Oz. “Nah, man, it’s way off! Rewind it again! Here, gimme the remote!”

Running Streak
A man in California holds the record for the longest running streak. He’s been running every day for the last 44 years. In a related story, Newt Gingrich just broke the record for longest waddling streak.
That’s right; a man’s been running every day for 44 years. His neighbor’s love it. They’re like, “Hey Bob, mind running this DVD back to Redbox?”

Cooking Tip
It’s easy to tell if spaghetti’s done — just throw a noodle at the wall. If it shoots straight through and stabs your roommate in the neck, it probably needs another minute.

Shark Chases Kayaker
A man kayaking at a beach on Cape Cod was chased by a great white shark. On the upside, though, he became the first person to break the sound barrier in a kayak.
It’s a good thing he got away. That would’ve been awkward for next person who rented the kayak. “Hi, excuse me, I think somebody left their legs in here.”
That’s right; a guy in a kayak was chased by a...

Cow Joke
I started to write this joke about how cows go shopping with their moo-lah. But then I realized that’s not funny. Most cows live well below the poverty level.

Giant Turtle
Researchers have discovered the remains of an ancient turtle that was the size of a small car. Its scientific name is “my 1989 Toyota Corolla.”
That’s right; researchers found the remains of a turtle the size of a car. In other words, if this thing were alive today, it’d be pulling over and moving YOU out of the road.

Gorilla Study
A new study shows larger male gorillas are more successful than smaller ones at attracting mates. It’s true. King Kong gets WAY more ass than Curious George.
He literally picks up chicks.
That’s right, bigger gorillas get more ladies than smaller ones… Which explains why I keep running into spider monkeys at Gold’s Gym. They’re like, “Hey, bro, can I get a...
