Thanks to @solmssen for pointing these out.

In this episode of The Worst, @thedanistew, @nickrutherford, and I discuss why an overpriced Beefy Crunchy Burrito lead to a SWAT standoff in Texas and the woman who stored a pharmacy’s worth of drugs and money in her snatch.

Chris Hardwick and the Future of Stand Up Comedy
Chris Hardwick and the Future of Stand Up Comedy
The Nerdist Chris Hardwick tells Huffington Post how the “comedy game” has changed and how he has adapted.
A jealous @mrrrianne dumps her fake boyfriend @nickrutherford for paying too much attention to the transvestite lip syncer on stage. Nick professes his love to the performer who accepts his keys, wallet, and heart in this inspiring tale of finding true love at your local tranny lounge.
Though Silverlake Lounge promotes several non-comedy events, it’s clear that comedy is ever present here no matter if it’s tranny karoake or not.

Charlyne Yi: FASHION ENTRY NINE: Hair Product
Okay I get how people wanna be all “natural” and not use hair product.
But there are some of us who just need to give in, and well, do their hairdo right.SEBASTIAN IS [a] PERFECT [example of what I’m talking about]
Maybe they wouldn’t have left Eddie on the floor if he did something…

8) Note to anyone doing Sendai Earthquake/Tsunami jokes on stage: for at least a week or two, most audience members will be against you.
Report 00141
THE COMEDY BUREAU/@thecomedybureau
Recently: Alex Sulkin, a staff writer at the popular adult-slanted cartoon Family Guy, was harshly called out for his insensitive, offensive attempt at making light of the earthquake and the subsequent tsunami that wreaked havoc, death, and destruction on Japan just yesterday. Lesson: don’t make jokes in the “never too early” spirit of trying to be as controversial as possible just for the sake of being as controversial as possible, thinking the shock itself is what’s funny. Make jokes because the accepted inconsistency or overlooked false assumption is legitimately funny. Take a cue from Paul Provenza and his angle on 9/11.
