Let’s Improve The Super Bowl Pun Headlines

WEAK showing this morning by the New York tabloids on their Super Bowl pun headlines:

With the many terms and awful rhymes at our disposal, let’s see if we can do better / worse (leave your own in the comments):

Cheese All That

Green With En-vy-P

The Aaron Up There

Pack It Up, Pack It Win (With Photo of Robin Williams Dancing At Birthday Party In Mrs. Doubtfire)

The Cheese Knees

Rodgers And Superbowlstein

Cheese Cheese Me

Fuzzy Matthews (meaningless, but remember “Fuzzy Math” jokes for like that one month?)

Better/worse ones? Comment away.

The Most Memorable Moment From Last Night’s World Series Thingy Or Whatever They Call It

Posted: 07 Feb 2011 07:47 AM PST

Let’s begin by agreeing that “memorable” does not necessarily equal “best.” Okay? Okay.

During last night’s big American football match, there was a commercial for Homeaway.com featuring a family packed into a hotel room that was so small — HOW SMALL? — so small that the mother threw her baby against glass window. The baby then stuck against the window for a brief moment before sliding down . You know… like babies do. We all immediately knew someone would make that moment into a GIF. And we were right. Within two hours of the game ending, we had this:

I am so excited for the new subway adds. “Never ever shake your baby. Throwing them against windows is cool.”

This is the closest a commercial has ever gotten to a straight up dead baby joke. Unfortunately, I like my dead baby jokes like I like my coffee… not all over my TV.

Thanks, The Daily What.

The Super Bowl Halftime Show Summed Up In One Tweet

Posted: 07 Feb 2011 07:38 AM PST

Much has already been said about the Black Eyed Peas’ Super Bowl 45 Halftime Show, particularly on Twitter (with several of the comments bordering on almost negative), but to me, no one Tweet sums up the show quite like this one:

Ahhh. Fits perfectly, doesn’t it? Like an old pair of hilarious compliment shoes, that have a vibrating ring in them to massage your feet even more because the Tweet is so accurate. Also, why don’t those shoes exist? For both actual-wearing and comparing to this Tweet purposes?

Also, not to belabor the point, but here’s my honest question about the Black Eyed Peas’ performance: If all four Peas somehow died last night one hour before their performance (lightsuit short, or something), and the Super Bowl randomly grabbed four volunteers off the street, put them in Mission Impossible rubber masks so they look just like the band members, then threw them onstage at halftime with no preparation or rehearsal but with the lyrics on a teleprompter, would the performance have been literally any different? I would argue “no, and it might have even been better,” then I would think maybe I was making joke then I’d realize I wasn’t. Great job all around, everyone.
