In 2003 I ran a weekly updated website devoted to reviewing (read: mocking) films based exclusively on their trailers, called The Trailer Trash. A lot of really funny people contributed to it during its run, and we even managed to garner, over the year and a half that I updated it, a healthy if not mind-blowing fanbase.





I used to write sporadically over at a website called Pointless Waste of Time, run by Dave Wong and John Cheese. Both are really funny 'net comedians and good friends (or at least as close as you can get for someone you only know through the Internet).

Dave Wong came up with the idea of doing a feature called NewsSkim, where we'd rip apart the news in the vein of SNL's Weekend Update or The Onion. So from 2003-2004, Dave Wong and I riffed on current events (the archive of which can be found below, though it's pretty dated now).



I can't imagine that anyone bases their media purchases around the uninformed opinions of a guy who makes photoshopped comics revolving around the word "penis." For the five people on the planet who do: here are some articles where I tell you what you should and shouldn't like.




Every so often I feel compelled to address a current event or issue, violently bursting the temporal bubble this site usually operates within. It invariably creates a shitstorm wherein I'm emailed by 500 irate readers asking me, "What are you, a fucking retard?"; half of those because I was stupid enough to disagree with them, and the other half because I didn't agree with them enough. It's exhausting, which is why I don't write them often. But it's also hilarious, which is why I occasionally will.
