How Cartoons Brainwashed Us With Jewish Stereotypes
Article by David Saint Hostility and discrimination against Jews as a religious and racial group has existed since before the Middle Ages ‘ and yet to this day anti-Semitism still finds footing among hate groups. LITERALLY THOUSANDS OF YEARS. HOW THE HELL ARE THESE IDEAS STILL AROUND?! In fact, the Anti-Defamation League (ADL), according to NBC News recently, said that the number of anti-Semitic incidents so far in 2019 is nearly as high as the first six months of 2018.

One of Those Table Read Shows But Without Brad Pitt - Live Stream
Carly Fiorina proved herself not to be a bigot on Jimmy Fallon’s ‘Tonight Show’ but more importantly sang about her dogs! The Muppets version of the Snoop Dogg classic “Who Am I (What ‘s My Name) ‘ starring Rowlf the Dog as Snoop and Fozzie Bear as Dr. Dre. I know that this release date is probably a little too close to my last one, but I ‘ve been grinding on Youtube for almost 10 years now, and the recent response is making me more motivated than ever.

One for the losers who haven’t had their a**hole licked by a formerly fat man in an overcoat. Bless. Jay and Silent Bob are back at it — this time with Moby Rich “Have you ever had your asshole licked by a formerly fat man in an overcoat” is perhaps the greatest question to sling at people exiting a liquor store that you can find anywhere. That’s how this new video for Moby Rich’s single “Loser” opens.
Modern Life’s Merry-Go-Round Sameness Now Has The Perfect Song
Call it an ode to riding in a car with one stranger to meet another stranger. On the one hand, “Uber Tinder” makes you marvel at the wholesale melding of personal space with branded tech, and on the other hand, it’s just some good, chaotic fun... with multicolored unitards. Created by X.X.T and Wet The Hippo. X.X.T is: Psycho Flower MC + GR1M3Y-T + G3NR8TR FIELD NOTES FROM THE FUNNY OR DIE STAFF First it was Eat Sleep Dance Repeat. Now it’s Uber Tinder Dinner Bed.
The Mindhunters Discover Dennis Reynolds

These Very ‘Modern Mantras’ Will Almost (But Not Quite) Help You Calm tf DOWN
Dan Zevin is here to tell you: Chant, don’t rant. When working your core means losing your will to live. FIELD NOTES FROM THE FUNNY OR DIE STAFF Modern life is pretty hard and pretty overwhelming. It’s also filled with about 33 metric tons of the most absolute B.S. self-help garbage around. I’m talking about healing crystals, or “manifesting,” or pretty much anything that could “help prevent ‘shame spirals’ downward toward depressive states” (something for which Goop settled a lawsuit over).
The Art Of Distinguishing Booty Calls From Non-Booty Calls
Technically it’s not a booty call if you don’t want booty. FIELD NOTES FROM THE FUNNY OR DIE STAFF This but a glimpse into the wacky, wonderfully weird brain of Anthony Troli, who is both the tired dude in the bed and the creator of these delightful one-minute vignettes.
These Rich Dimwits Try To Destroy Each Other Over The Stupidest Things
Boomer Retaliates After Being Robbed in BEEF IN BRENTWOOD Episode 1. In the series premiere, watch as Boomer, an overzealous dimwit who thinks he is the toughest guy in Brentwood, Los Angeles, gets robbed and embarrassed on social media. In a mission to redeem his reputation, he tracks down the guys who did it and retaliates, triggering a war between the three incompetent wannabe’s. FIELD NOTES FROM THE FUNNY OR DIE STAFF It all starts with a stolen cell phone but then leads to a world war.
This Is Why It’s Dangerous To Like Tea Too Much
Who doesn’t have chamomile? WTF. FIELD NOTES FROM THE FUNNY OR DIE STAFF While tea is an aromatic beverage that you get when you pour some stangin’ hot water over dried leaves or flowers (or any dried thing, really), did you know that tea can also turn you into a tea-liking monster with an appetite for destruction? No? NO? THE RUMORS ARE TRUE — AND HERE’S WHY Tea is the rabbit-hole of hot beverages. There are so many different kinds of tea. White, green, dark, pu-erh, oolong, matcha, rooibos.
These Amazon Prime Day TV, Movie, and Amazon Echo Deals Are Suhhh Good
Amazon Prime Day is upon us, which means there are over one million things you can buy at various (from “barely any” to “ridiculous”) discounts. But this year Prime Day is actually TWO DAYS, which means we have now broken time itself. AND THAT’S A GOOD THING. If one day = two days, that means we can finally catch up on all the amazing stuff that human beings have made in the history of e-commerce so thank god.
Netflix ‘Chef’s Table’ Parody Clearly Nails It And Tests The Limits Of Pickle Passion
In this parody of Netflix’s Chef’s Table, Celebrity Chef Zac La Cremme walks us through a new dish for his restaurant, Milk & Basil. FIELD NOTES FROM THE FUNNY OR DIE STAFF As anyone will tell you, but especially Celebrity Chef Zac La Cremme, “you can’t pickle something without pickles.” Just like you can’t jelly something without jelly, or fry a thing without fries. And it’s insights like these that have me rethinking everything thought I’ve ever before thinked when it comes to cooking.
When Requesting Time Off During A Holiday Becomes A Bloodsport
When it comes to getting a holiday off at a restaurant, flipping a coin isn’t gonna cut it. Shift Drinks Episode 1: “Fried Chicken” FIELD NOTES FROM THE FUNNY OR DIE STAFF Getting time off around holidays — doesn’t matter what time of year — can be brutal because of the rush as everyone competes to take the most time. It makes sense. With any kind of extended time-off looming, people want to eek out a few extra days.
If You’re Feeling Lonely, Try Bud Budderson’s Buddy Rental Service
If you need a buddy, look no further than Bud Budderson’s Buddy Rental Service. A buddy for all occasions! FIELD NOTES FROM THE FUNNY OR DIE STAFF People need buddies for different reasons, and buddies help out in so many different circumstances in life. That’s what’s so great about buddies: versatility. For example, a hammer can only hammer things. It can’t twist things, or inflate things. It can’t sing a song or share a cool book it read recently about the ecology of road-side ditches.
People Who Love Surfing Won’t Shut The Hell Up Up About Surfing
“When You Try Surfing Once” is a short comedy documentary about a surfer who doesn’t let his beginner status prevent him from fully embracing the surf culture in his new home of Bondi Beach, Sydney, Australia.

This Jeff Goldblum Impression Gives Us The ASMR Video We’ve Always Wanted
Jeff Goldblum explores ASMR FIELD NOTES FROM THE FUNNY OR DIE STAFF The Jeff Goldblum experience can only be described as fully immersive. His wordplay, his dexterous finger weaving, his aura of genius-on-the-brink-of-earth-shattering-insight and silky smooth voice all add up to the elements of a kick-ass ASMR video. If you want to watch the actual Jeff Goldblum cook up some kebabs with Regina Hall, you can, because Jeff Goldblum Dishes With Regina Hall in the latest episode of Cooking With Jeff.
Scratch And Scratch To No Avail With This Rashy Lingerie
Brought to you by people who never wear it, Rashy Lingerie will definitely ruin your date. A commercial parody from Femmebot PhD. FIELD NOTES FROM THE FUNNY OR DIE STAFF Itchy lingerie totally sucks. But rashy lingerie is enough for a class action lawsuit. Back in 2008 and 2009, NBC reported that there was actually a lawsuit against Victoria’s Secret and its parent company Limited Brands, Inc.
Two Girls Debate A First Kiss, And Things Get Real Real Bad
We all remember our first kiss. But it never really goes as well as we wanted it to go. Find out what happens when you toss out, “Here, will ya meet me mate?” to a stranger in a lane. FIELD NOTES FROM THE FUNNY OR DIE STAFF Comedy. Kind of. That’s the “About” from ThisContent, the comedy group out of Ireland that put this little gem together that, in my opinion, is really the only video that truly gets to the catastrophizing that happens when you’re about to kiss someone you’re into.
Watch Will Forte Do A Seance To Contact WC Fields In This Bonkers Video
Supernatural hi-jinx ensue as Will Forte joins Zabrecky on a visit to the Other Side. FIELD NOTES FROM THE FUNNY OR DIE STAFF Will Forte is a big fan of W.C. Fields, and he came to Zabrecky to communicate with the 1900s-era comedian to strange, bewildering, uncomfortable, yet ultimately lovely, results. ICYMI - W. C. Fields liked to juggle, tell jokes, act in front of a camera, and write words down on paper to then sell those words through publications. He was, in many ways, much like you or me.
This Video Encouraging Us To Proudly Announce ‘I’m Peach’ Does It For Me
A PSA for America. Join the movement! FIELD NOTES FROM THE FUNNY OR DIE STAFF Hooboy, what a day. So, guess what — as of today there are now at least 21 women who have come forward and publicly accused Donald Trump of sexual assault.
Texting Can Get You An STD And Other Revelations From ‘Little Italy, Los Angeles’
LA’s Little Italy is a neighborhood going through some changes. We’re talking corporate stores, hipster salons, foreign food trucks and gay bars.

These Ladies Bring Catchy Beats and Handclaps To A Song About Periods And It’s GOOD
A comedy music video about getting your period....surprise! FIELD NOTES FROM THE FUNNY OR DIE STAFF There are so many parody music videos out there on the Internet, but there aren’t enough that come from women celebrating or making fun of (and thus demystifying) biological aspects of their lives that — shockingly — some humans on the planet cannot wrap their heads around.
This Children’s Theater Company Is A Hot Dramatic Mess
A mockumentary series about the process of putting on a live theatrical performance for children. FIELD NOTES FROM THE FUNNY OR DIE STAFF Community theater can be many things. It can be wonderful. It can be cringeworthy. But it’s always a dramatic train wreck of egos. And this little web series brings that to life. This theatrical soap opera comes to you via Children’s Playhouse.
This Is Why Video Games Aren’t The Escapist, Fun Times They Used To Be
A comedy sketch that asks if modern-day video games are becoming TOO realistic... FIELD NOTES FROM THE FUNNY OR DIE STAFF Video games can create experiences for people that just blow the human mind. Throw giant chain-bound axes that burst into flames. Leap thousands of feet in the air to land without injury on your feet while simultaneously shooting aliens hundreds of yards away. Or doing whatever the heck people are doing in Kingdom Hearts.
Debt Totally Sucks And This Sad-Funny Song Nails It
A modern take on “I Dreamed a Dream.” Hanna Knuuttnen sings about dreaming to be free of student debt. FIELD NOTES FROM THE FUNNY OR DIE STAFF Debt sucks, but student debt in particular sucks even more. There’s just something inherently evil about institutions marketing themselves as the answer to giving your life the most promising start it can have WHILE SIMULTANEOUSLY weighing you down with crippling debt payments that will last years and years.
Add A Dumb Laugh To Your Day With This Yard Sale Ruined By A Pair Of Very Short Shorts
Dwayne and Rick are shocked to find that a man at their yard-sale is hanging massive dong. FIELD NOTES FROM THE FUNNY OR DIE STAFF Garage sales and yard sales are a staple of springtime. People all over the neighborhood do some cleaning, reassess their possessions, and put their useless crap out in the open to be handled, picked over, and (hopefully) sold to someone who can give that useless crap a a more appreciative home.
Relive The Dumbest Trump-Era Boondoggles With This New Book from MAD Magazine
There are only a few humor institutions that have stood the test of time — The Onion, National Lampoon, Saturday Night Live, and The Daily Show come to mind. But MAD Magazine is the only one to have rebooted in 2017 with a new editor, a new office in Los Angeles, and new efforts spanning web comics, magazines, books, and a slick new website where you can browse all of the latest Mad Magazine creations. The relaunch has been a good one.
7 Weird Valentine’s Day Food Gifts You Never Knew You Wanted
These gifts are wonderful? I think? Valentine’s Day is basically here already, and maybe it’s because there’s a shortage of SweetHeart Candies but good golly — there’s already been a bevy of strange thematic food gifts that companies are releasing. Watching these things come out is sort of like watching a toddler pound a square peg through a round hole: while it’s clearly a bad fit, there is something admirable in the dogged perseverance on display here. How deeply do you love fried chicken?
Here’s 13 Tasty GIFs of Danny Devito Eating To Make You Hungry
Danny Devito is the 8th Wonder of the World The man is in his seventies and so completely overdelivers in everything he does — it’s mind-blowing. And while many people will laud Mr. Devito for his commitment to and portrayal of Frank on It’s Always Sunny, or his surprising and impeccable track record as a producer to help get projects to audiences they would otherwise miss, I for one am most pumped about his amazingly unique takes on eating. The man eats and talks like no other.
This Alphabet Book Will Confuse You Even If You Know English Pretty Good
Learning your ABC’s ranks up there as one of the dumbest, most annoying requirements for modern life, along with maintaining your inside voice and, you know, not naming your kid Abcde. Think about it: You don’t need your ABCs to shake hands like a man. Right? You don’t need them to shave your body hair. Or to do dance cardio at the gym. And you sure as hell don’t need the alphabet to have a mind-blowing shoulder rub with someone you cherish and/or just met at a Sizzler Family Restaurant. Right?

Sam Hinkie Leaves the Philadelphia Sixers
Fans of sensible front-office behavior have been given a pair of big gifts over the past six months, in the form of the departures of Chip Kelly and Sam Hinkie. Last December’s removal of Kelly was a chance for the Eagles to step away from his “revolutionary” and ultimately unsuccessful coaching ways and begin the business of becoming a real NFL franchise again—though there’s no guarantee the Jeffrey Lurie/Howie Roseman axis will deliver anything other than more heartache.
