Before everybody starts complaining about the new batch of reality show cliches, just try to honestly remember how bad most sitcoms used to be. At lunch we were pretentiously discussing the creative integrity of BBC shows for ending themselves before they were creatively spent, and the freedom alloted to animation shows like The Simpsons for never having to age their characters. Don’t get us wrong, we also discussed strip clubs. But in 1974, The Brady Bunch was in its final season and added it’s young ‘Cousin Oliver’ to the mix. The term ‘Cousin Oliver Syndrome’ has been used ever since when producers introduce a young character to the mix to replace aging child stars. The results are always terrible. Here are the 5 worst ‘new cute kid’ TV characters from the past 30 years. Enjoy yourselves.
5. Nicky and Alex Katsopolis, Full House (1992)
Have mercy! Let’s say your name is ‘Uncle Jesse’ and you’re old rocker friends with The Beach Boys and your TV show producer wife gets pregnant. Would you get your own place? Naw. Just live in the fucking attic of your buddy’s house. Nevermind 9 people live there. The kids will be cute little Dutch Boys who laugh at Uncle Joey’s goddamned moose impressions. Except the audience didn’t give a shit, while the Olsens went on to create Dualstar and make billions off of shit like To Grandmother’s House We Go. You DON’T got it, dude. Oh yeah, and you’re in big trouble misters.
It’s 2009 everybody. Maybe you’ve read last year’s musings about it already. But it’s ‘09, and you tried to hit the reset button like you do every year. The only problem is that you’re too lazy and mediocre to pull off any of the shit you drunkenly promised yourself on New Years Eve. Here are the top 6 New Years resolutions you’ve already failed at.
6. Join A Gym
What are you - a millionaire? And when would you go - at 6am when there’s no way you’ll get up or at 6pm when you just feel like going home? Exactly. Leave the gym to meatheads, power bottoms and divorcee cougars. And if you are a millionaire, you don’t really need a gym to get ass.
5. Reduce Stress
That was easy to say over your two week fucking vacation from work, wasn’t it? Welcome back to work and the shitstorm that is your life. How are those Christmas expenses looking now, hotshot? Valentine’s Day is just around the corner too. Go roll yourself a joint.
We’ve seen plenty of interesting things at college football games this year (for example, remember that UTEP bleachers handjob?), but this video clip of USC football player Rey Maualuga sneaking up on ESPN sideline reporter Erin Andrews and pretending to do a little bump and grind dance with her might be our favorite.
Wow. That’s all we can say about this video which features a magician demonstrating his tips of how you can use magic to flirt with girls. We’re pretty sure it’s how David Blaine gets all his women.

We’ve watched a lot of funny videos this year, but we have to admit that our favorites might be the ones that leave us wondering, “WTF?” That’s right, the videos that have no logical explanation for their creation or purpose, but somehow manage to make us laugh so hard that we have to watch them over and over again. Here’s our 10 favorite bizarre videos of 2008:
