From SNL Last night:

This is awesome.  It’s great to see that he has a healthy sense of humor — especially this close to the election.

Enjoy:

Thanks Ben!

I try to make it a point not to blog mad, but I am so incredibly pissed right now.

I just got a charge on my credit card for $12 for some crappy-ass service called ‘ReservationRewards’ in Conneticut (specifically: RESERVATION REWARDS 8007327031 CT).

First off, just to be clear these guys are a total scam.  Just ask:

• Rip Off Report
• Substantially Similar
• Pissed Customer
• or just search Google

Apparently I ‘elected’ to ‘sign up for a 30 day free trial’ when I bought some movie tickets though Fandango (who is also about to get an earful from me) by accidentally clicking or not clicking on some checkbox somewhere when I was in a hurry.  And Fandango gave them my credit card #!  Jesus!

These people, in my book, parasites.  They provide zero useful service and only continue to exist because the rest of us are too lazy or inattentive to notice when we become ‘infected’ by them (I would’ve been charged $12/month for who knows how long if I hadn’t picked over my statement more closely than I usually do).

It makes me so mad that businesses like this exist.

The Post should really just be recycled as soon as it’s printed.

A cute (if vulgar) rant about the current state of signage in America from Aaron Draplin:

And he’s right.  Back in the day our signs used to be beautifully designed and engineered.  It was an art.  Now?  15K?  For that sign?

From SNL:

Andy Samberg is hilarious.

And apparently Wallberg is kind of pissed about it.  Which he should be — it’s pretty dead on.
