Why? My dad’s jokes were mean, hurtful, and morbid; that’s why I liked him.

I think it’s because whenever I tell it, people look at me odd.

My absolute favorite ‘dad joke’ is Norm MacDonald’s telling of the Moth joke:

I’ve memorized it and whenever I finish telling it I get a stern look 100% of the time.

I love Norm MacDonald. I’m sure you’re aware of the cultish I’m Not Norm channel?

I remember when I met the man who runs that channel, I met him underneath the Queensborough bridge… beating off punks for fifteen dollars a man!

But this is 2018 and I’m not willing to put forth any effort into getting the things I want.

But seriously I feel like I’m missing something too.

There’s nothing worse than a passive waiter. I need my drink!

I felt like if someone ever wanted to commit murder, they’d do that beforehand so they wouldn’t have to deal with a mess afterwards.

I never actually intended to go away, but I haven’t really posted in a few weeks now because in the time since The Last Jedi came out I’ve grown to find the sorts of discussions that take place here exhausting. I’m not at all tired with Star Wars itself, I’m just tired of having to be a fucking lawyer about it. Call me when you guys want to speculate and theorize about stuff without re-litigating whether or not TLJ worked every six posts.

It’s not discussion he’s not satisfied with, it’s the type of discussion being had. I must admit, it is exhausting and very rarely do you feel like it’s productive in any way.

well, those are the discussions the movie prompted. imo they’re productive, seeing as i wouldn’t have considered several aspects of the film and gotten to the point i’m at with my opinion if not for these discussions.
