Spoilers for everything in the ranking, but not Thunder Force, Y: The Last Man, M.O.D.O.K., Hit-Monkey, Sweet Tooth, or all the CW and HBO Max DC shows released this year. I’m not going to talk about those because I haven’t seen them. I’m probably forgetting some other things I haven’t seen. I try to keep Read more

As a gift to myself I have decided not to write some long involved poem or joke interview or story about evil corporations. There are so many “funny takes” on the holiday season and I really just don’t see the point of adding my own. Especially because I’ve been focused on my posts for next Read more

Spoilers for the movie All Is Bright. Not that you care, nobody has seen or heard of this movie, despite it being the only Christmas movie Paul Rudd has ever been in. But this isn’t a very happy Christmas movie, so don’t watch it if that’s what you’re looking for. All Is Bright(2013) stars Paul Read more

John VS Plumbing A few nights ago the City of Duluth decided to turn off the water everywhere for reasons that remain unclear. This occurred at an inopportune time. I had just gone to the bathroom and I went to wash my hands. The bathroom faucet decided not to cooperate. “Hmmmmm.” I tried to turn Read more

Obviously spoilers for this horrible movie that I love. Two months ago now I sat down to review Space Jam: A New Legacy. My plan was to write a thought down for every minute of the film, which has a runtime of 115 minutes. But I couldn’t do it. I got halfway through and it Read more

Full spoilers for the TV show Parks and Recreation, but the five episodes that Paul Rudd was in in particular. I would recommend watching this show, but it’s so damn good that I don’t think any jokes I mention will ruin it for you. The main cast of Parks and Recreation includes Amy Poehler as Read more

The clock tells me that the time is currently 1:13 AM. My brain tells me I should sleep. My body tells me I should sleep. The fact that I have class in the morning means I should probably go to sleep. But I’d rather listen to podcasts, eat Wheaties, and play Project: Makeover. My brain Read more

Some spoilers for the TV show Living With Yourself; if you have Netflix you should just go watch this because it’s great. I will say that this is one of those shows that are fun to go in to while knowing absolutely nothing about the premise, so if you are interested, watch this before reading Read more

Thanksgiving is a holiday all about reuniting with your loved ones, enjoying some excellent turkey(Unless you’re vegetarian, vegan, pescatarian or something else I’m forgetting), and appreciating what you have. For some of us. Unfortunately, there are some out there sacrificing more than we could ever comprehend so we can enjoy this joyful time of year. Read more

Thanksgiving is a holiday all about reuniting with your loved ones, watching the Macy’s Thanksgiving Day Parade, and appreciating what you have. For some of us. Unfortunately, there are some out there sacrificing more than we could ever comprehend so we can enjoy this joyful time of year. And nobody is thanking them. Over the Read more

Thanksgiving is a holiday all about reuniting with your loved ones, eating good pie, and appreciating what you have. For some of us. Unfortunately, there are some out there sacrificing more than we could ever comprehend so we can enjoy this joyful time of year. And nobody is thanking them. Over the last month I Read more

As few spoilers for the movie Ghostbusters: Afterlife as possible. Even though it’s very difficult to spoil this movie. Because spoiler alert, it’s pretty much the same movie as the first two and probably the one with women that the internet hates. Anyway, let’s get into it. I haven’t seen the first Ghostbusters that many Read more

Lots of spoilers for the Paul Rudd classic, I Love You, Man(2009), and the great jokes in it; again it’s a great movie and you should still be able to enjoy it even though I’m about to recap it in a much less interesting fashion I’m gonna try things a little differently this time, and Read more

I’d prefer not to put out two posts in the same day, but this man deserves it. At time of writing, I have yet to buy my two copies of his magazine, but first chance tomorrow, I’m running down to the grocery store to get them. If you’re reading this, you probably know about this Read more
-
Full spoilers for the movie Role Models(2008), including all my favorite jokes; the plot isn’t that intricate and you’ll still be able to enjoy this despite spoilers This is one of my all-time favorite movies, and probably my favorite Paul Rudd movie? It’s definitely up there. It’s very funny, in my opinion. Paul Rudd has Read more

I’d be able to get so much done if other, more creative people would just stop making things. Like most human beings, I have ADHD, so if I see something shiny and entertaining, I’m probably gonna ditch whatever I’m working on to go see what this shiny thing is about. Which is difficult, because my Read more

I’m going to try my best not to spoil this movie but there are no guarantees. Most of what I am going to mention will be things I knew going in to the movie, which might sound like a spoiler. But that’s only because I’m a freak and I research these things too much. Enjoy! Read more

Today I took a Jefferson Lines bus home for fall break. It’s my second time on the Jefferson Lines, but this time instead of booking a bus leaving from Campus, I booked one that would board at the bus station downtown. It showed me no option for a bus leaving from campus, so I booked Read more

Spoilers for the movies Clueless, The Object of My Affection, and Our Idiot Brother. Before we cover the career defining performances that Paul Rudd is known for, we’re going to do one more batch of movies I don’t have many thoughts about. But if you’re worried, don’t be. Next week I cover one of my Read more

It begins with a stuffed mouse. It has distinctly round black ears that could be recognized from any distance. At the end of it’s cartoonish snout lies a spherical black knob of a nose. Hidden beneath the nose is a large, toothy, friendly grin. The mouse wears bright red shorts, yellow shoes, and distinct white Read more

This is something I’ve wanted to write about for some time now, as it’s a very clear comparison that not many people have made. At least, from what I can tell. But when I’ve told people this, I’ve been mocked and ridiculed. People think that I’m not serious just because I’m comparing two seemingly different Read more

I’m lost Struggling Grasping for breath beneath the unrelenting waves Of tacky desk confectionaries A nearby aisle assaults me with wicker baskets While I’m nearly strangled by some soft blankets The scented candles attempt to burn me alive I try to run To escape But trip over a fuzzy ottoman that’s been on sale since Read more

Spoilers for the movies The Perks of Being a Wallflower, Admission, and This Is The End. As some of you may know, I’m a big fan of Paul Rudd, and one of the things I want to do here is take time each week to appreciate the work of the most beautiful man in Hollywood. Read more

Welcome to my blog! This project means a lot to me, so I wanted to thank you for your support. I can’t promise that every post will be brief, but I can promise that most of the things I say will be completely idiotic. I learned how to read when I was two years old. Read more
