A Comedy Article about Hitler

This satirical article may be offensive.

And that's the point.

Tacky Alert!

    

Thanks to Points in Case, I’ve written comedy articles about racism, sexism, corruption, crime, elder abuse, and a host of other serious issues. I’ve skirted the line between tasteful and offensive many times.

But I can say with confidence that my latest article is hands-down the tackiest thing I’ve ever written. I won’t give you the title. You’ll have to check it out for yourself.

But you’ve been warned.

The Stage Version of "Son of the Mask"

My drama students want to recreate THIS MOVIE and I have no idea what to do...

Gun Control

           

The title of my latest satire is “Someone Is Murdering My Neighbors… So I’ll Send Them My Thoughts and Prayers.” I wrote it after our last national tragedy, and I was afraid it would seem like old news when it finally reached publication.

Unfortunately, it does not seem like old news. Because we live in America.

I’m not going to say anything else.

Skater Boy

Do you skate? Are you in junior high school? Do you cringe at the memories of when you were a skater in junior high school?

Well, check out my latest comedy article, which should hopefully make you cringe just a little bit. That’s the goal, anyway.

How to Be a Paranormal Investigator

I don’t know about you, but I cannot stand those ghost-hunting reality TV shows. Like pretty much every other reality subgenre, these shows follow a very strict template. So strict, in fact, that every episode is exactly the same.

Every time I watch Ghost Hunters, my belief in the existence of the supernatural diminishes just a bit more. If ghosts were real (which they aren’t), they’d deserve better than this.

Anyway, my latest comedy article in Points in Case is a step-by-step take-down of the genre. It’s a fun read.

Friday the 13th

Okay. So it's Friday, but it's not quite the 13th anymore. Still, if you're in the mood for something spooky, check out my article spoofing the truly wonderful Friday the 13th sequels of the 80s and 90s. If you're not a horror fan, you might not get all the jokes, but give it a try anyway. It doesn't look like we're getting another Friday sequel for a long, long time, so a snarky online article is probably the next best thing.
   

Grandma Jokes

My second supremely tacky article for Ego Baby Magazine is out now! This one is called "My 102-Year-Old Grandma Is Really Good at Meditation." From the title, you can probably guess how this one ends. Check it out. It's pretty offensive! (But in a good way. At least that's what I tell myself.)

Cartoon Ghosts

EgoBaby Magazine is a very strange publication. It's a comedy site that focuses on spirituality and new age topics. It's also quite funny.

My first featured article is a supremely tacky and culturally insensitive look at Casper the Friendly Ghost. It's probably best if you don't read it. You will probably be offended. But if you do read it, don't say I didn't warn you!

Christmas Movie Time!

'Tis the season to watch some brain-numbing holiday entertainment. Maybe some Home Alone. Perhaps something with the Muppets. Maybe one of those Rankin/Bass stop-motion numbers.

If you need some help, though, check out my list of the nine best holiday movies to watch with your family. You'll thank me in the morning.

BOOM! Apocalypse!

The world is ending! The world is ending!

Craigslist Ad

Wanted: A Young, Female Assistant for Totally Normal Stuff

This is perhaps the darkest comedy article I've ever written (give or take a "wounded grandma" story). The point is, Craigslist is pretty creepy, is all I'm saying.

And as always, don't be offended. Or, if you are offended, email me and I'll get back to you with a nice, passive-aggressive response.

POINTS IN CASE

Vampire Comedy

"Accidental Slayage" is a horror comedy about a normal guy who accidentally kills the ancient lord of the vampires. It's a bit Buffy the Vampire Slayer and a bit Mr. Magoo.

It's also FREE!

"Accidental Slayage" is one of the short stories to be featured in the latest Sirens Call Magazine. This one is all about honoring the classic movie monsters (though most of the other stories take the monsters much more seriously than mine does).

Happy Death Day!

Ready for some FREE flash fiction? Check out my new story "Hello, Death! It's a Pleasure!" It's short, morbid, and has a neat twist ending.

This is my first collaboration with Fairy Tale Magazine, and they've been awesome! Check them out if you're ever in the mood for some revisionist fairy tales with modern sensibilities.

Silent Film Lovers

I have a new article up on Points In Case (everyone's third favorite comedy site). It's title: "How Silent Films Taught Me to Be a Better Lover." I think that's all I'm going to say. Otherwise, I'll ruin the punchline.

Check it out here.

Reunion Etiquette

Here's another wildly tacky article I wrote for Points in Case. It's about that awkward moment when you see an old friend and have literally nothing to say. The older I get, the more this happens to me, and it's never fun.

Grandmas Break Easily: Another Traumatizing Life Lesson

(A wonderful public domain photo of a "grandmother")

Over at Points in Case, I’ve been submitting increasingly tacky articles that may or may not (but most likely may) offend you. I did one on the after-effects of getting robbed, and how it can totally make you racist. I did another one on coping with the death of an acquaintance, which... well. I'll let that one speak for itself.

And now, I have a new article, and it’s all about when old people have jarring physical accidents right in front of their emotionally scarred grandchildren. Everyone’s experienced it, and it’s never not horrifying. Like I said, these articles are quite tacky.

Points in Case, a website that allows me to get away with pretty much anything. I shudder to think what my next article will be.

New Comedy Articles (What?)

POINTS IN CASE is a humor website that specializes in everything except fake news. It's pretty great. Check out my first few articles now. Both are pretty tacky.

ZANZIBAR INTERNATIONAL FILM FESTIVAL (part 2)

ZIFF continued to offer a bunch of wildly depressing movies. One in particular stood out for having incest, infidelity, attempted suicide, and abandonment all in the same steaming hot pile of soap opera nonsense. It was amazing.

Anyway, here are my continuing adventures with the biggest cultural event in all of East Africa.

Keggers for Kiddies

          
Alpha House is a low budget frat comedy from The Asylum. It is also reprehensible, a hollow nothing of a movie that smears poop on everyone involved. Check it out.
