I quit watching American Idol this year. I don't like Ellen and I did not like Kara last year. Plus I hated the fact that every person I thought had talent, or was real "smart", never really made it through. I didn't like any finalists last year. I also really like having a million hours of extra time not spent watching American Idol each week. Anyway, even without watching Idol this year, it was hard to avoid this "Pants on the Ground" craze. It's everywhere. I don't find the humor in it. It's so staged it's ridiculous. But what I did like was Jimmy Fallon as Neil Young covering Pants on the Ground. His impression is spot on. Fallon is just like Conan when he was starting out. The show just needs some time to find its legs.
I love a good commercial. I can't get this song out of my head once it's on TV. I don't care about the burgers... never even been to the fast food dining establishment... but I do love the commercial and the song.
Way out West (Way out West) There's a story told (There's a story told) About a bunch of cowboys Tiny & Bold (Tiny & Bold) Riding Tall (Riding Tall) Tall in the Saddle Herding cows the size of Schnauzers, but they're cattle Yipiyaiyay Mini Sirloin Burgers Yipiyaiyo Mini Sirloin Burgers Yipiyaiyay Mini Sirloin Burgerrrrrs..... Yeah!
Not sure if these are all authentic or not but here are a ton of Mike Tyson quotes and a bunch of them are great. Definitely worth going through. One of my favs...
[To a female reporter] "It's no doubt I am going to win this fight and I feel confident about winning this fight. I normally don't do interviews with women unless I fornicate with them. So you shouldn't talk anymore... Unless you want to, you know."
I sure hope she knew.

I just laughed more than I've laughed in ages. Seriously, this site of funny emails... hilarious emails... side splitting, tear inducing emails, has even surpassed I am better than your kids + the next funniest site on the internet. I'm talking Louis C.K. laughter. Most of them are pretty funny, some are funnier than others though. I specifically found the Hybrids Suck almost too much to take and after reading Handicapped Movers, I had to stop for the night because I couldn't take much more and it just got too hard to read. I'll continue reading more of them tomorrow because it looks like there's quite a few more to finish up.
I just saw there are top rated emails. I can't even begin to think about reading them if their funnier than what I've already read. Definitely waiting until tomorrow.
Since I saw the first promo, I've been wondering who at HBO Joe Buck had to blow to get his own TV show. I mean isn't it bad enough that he's on TV at all? I don't know how he even pulled that off, but c'mon now, his own show?
Quite frankly it's a sin to have Troy Aikman broadcasting Eagles games but then they throw that imbecile Joe Buck in the mix who clearly does not like Philadelphia, it's sports teams and it's fans. Maybe he knows we don't care too much for him but which came first, the chicken or the egg? The world may never know. So then we had to put up with him and two faced Tim McCarver during the Phillies World Series run. That was downright painful and I found myself screaming more at the two of them than the actual game play.
Regardless, as long as I've been wondering how he got his own show, I've known that there was no chance in hell that I would ever watch it. So when I heard that Artie Lange was going to be a guest on the first Joe Buck Live show, somehow for a minute, I actually thought about watching it to see Artie. Then I realized it's Joe Buck, he has his own friggin show, and even Artie couldn't get me to watch this abomination of TV programming.
Driving in to work this morning I was listening to Howard and I heard the clips from last night's premier. I instantly regretted not watching it. I'm going to watch the encore tonight to see how bad the whole show was, but the part with Artie killed. KILLED. It may have been one of the most awkward segments in television history and unfortunately it might have put Joe Buck on the map to get people to tune in to a show they would have never seen (I WILL NOT BE WATCHING AFTER TONIGHT I CAN GUARANTEE THAT) but Artie was hilarious in his Joe Buck submarining and I will never not watch another Artie appearance. In fact, I may have to go buy tickets to Artie's Vegas show next week. Hurry up and watch the video below before they all get pulled off the internet. HBO seems to be on a warpath of removal. Apparently some publicity is bad publicity? HBO should be ashamed if they call this inappropriate. And Artie, if somehow you read this, what about a book signing while you're in Vegas next week? It ain't scheduled on your site and that just ain't cool.
UPDATE: Yeah, so I just couldn't do it. Anything would be better than watching Joe Buck Live so I decided against wasting my time. I've already seen everything that I need to see.
This new LeBron/Kobe MVPuppets Nike commercial is hilarious. All of these MVPuppets commercials have been great but I feel like posting this one so enjoy.
I know it's already all over the internet but I caught the commercial for the new Punch Out for Wii on TV tonight and it's greatness. Sure I sucked real bad at Mike Tyson's Punch Out growing up and I'll probably be miserable at this game but man oh man it's a hell of a teaser. Makes me actually want to buy the game.
Man, I spent some time today looking through my archives and I can definitely sense a change in my attitude towards a lot of things since then. Maybe I've matured or maybe I've just been beaten down by life over the last 5 years but I said some things back then that were just jaw dropping...ly hilarious. I would never post stuff like that now though; I'm apparently nowhere near as bold as I once was. I may also know that some things are just better left unsaid. But boy, oh, boy this page used to be awesome. I mean things were just brutal. People like brutal honestly... at least I know my readers do but... wait a minute, I feel like I'm getting off track because maybe myself and some others were cracking up pretty good this afternoon reading those posts. But at whose expense? What I'm trying to say is that this site is over 6 years old, there's a lot written in these pages and things that were said years ago may not be things that I personally agree with now no matter how humorous they still may be. So I'm just gonna remind you all that you need to take everything you see on Terententen with a grain of salt. I'm an entertainer people. That's what I do. Ta da!
It's rare that something on SNL is really funny any more but for some reason I keep on watching. Maybe it's because once in a while you'll get a guest that will give you a gem like this one.
Sorry for the forced commercials but I thought the sketch was worth it. Just don't buy anything you see in them. That's my motto.
Here's Jimmy Rollins having a little fun being a world effing champion. He's trying his best not to crack up while making those faces which consistently cracks me up. And then when he pats the kid on the ass after he gets destroyed by the baseball, it's just hilarious.

Last night we went to see Daniel Tosh. He was funny. Hilarious even. He consistently cracked... me up. He tells you right up front that he's gonna cross some lines and he didn't waste any time. Luckily for me he didn't cross any of my lines and everything he said was great. Problem was, he said so much funny stuff that I can't seem to remember anything other than laughing the whole time. Except for when he cracked at Dane Cook because he's just not funny. And joked about Chris Benoit, New Orleans... oh yeah, the New Orleans bit was great. Man, I'm just gonna end it with that.
It's amazing; I never thought it could happen but Dane Cook has finally been involved in something humorous. He was just voted "the Unfunniest Comic" by a radio show in Boston which I've never heard but now respect immensely. I mean this is the greatest news out of Boston since Paul Revere told us that the British were coming. Listen to them people!!! Dane Cook is coming by air to a city near you. Rebel against it. Stand up and fight for what's right. Your right to hear things that are actually funny. Dane Cook is not funny!
So good old Northeast High School made national news on Monday with what had to be one of the greatest pranks ever pulled at a school. Here's a link from a Texas news site that goes into the great Philadelphia chicken prank. I can't imagine what must have went through the janitor's head as he walked into the building in the morning. I'd imagine there was no laughter. 80 or so chickens running around the halls eating and crapping and clucking. I mean the halls by our lockers used to smell terrible anyway with people putting crayons, other assorted crap and even piss in the radiator (and that wasn't even a prank) but... nah, nevermind, there's no way any amount of chicken crap could smell as bad as our radiator. Anyway, the class of 167 makes me feel kinda old... I was 159... but that's life. Way to make the headlines Northeast.
Q: I'm 6-foot-5, 250 pounds, and not even close to being gay, so you know the Pats are good when people don't even look at me funny when I mention my man-crush on Tom Brady. Mostly, they nod in agreement. I think at least 60 percent of North American males must have a man-crush on Tom Brady at this point, whether they admit it or not. Think about it. You're out at a bar one night with more than a few cocktails in you, and there's Tom Brady, you get to talking, go out on the dance floor, and eventually you're back at the booth and he leans in and tilts his head just a little. Who's turning that down?
GPS Jesus Nabs Christmas Theif. This story was just too awesome not to headline. Someone steals baby Jesus statue, somebody puts GPS in another baby Jesus statue, somebody steals baby Jesus statue, thief gets tracked down by GPS and arrested. Nobody... I mean nobody... fucks wit da Jesus!
Tonight I went to see Louis C.K. at the House of Blues and it was the absolute funniest thing that I've ever seen in my life. I've never laughed harder and for a longer period of time than during this show. There were tears ballin out my eyes, my cheeks and side hurt like hell and it was just painful to laugh when he finished the segment about the deer found in this clip. Certainly not work safe but certainly the funniest thing I've ever heard. It was like 65 minutes of genius. I never expected it to be as good as it was. And to top it off, Todd Barry was opening for him, I didn't even know it, and I would go see a Todd Barry show by himself. It was a great night. A great dirty, raunchy, hilarious night.
Yeah, I'm back. It appears lots of stuff has happened. I won't get into sports which has been thrust into high gear, but I will get into the brand new Street Fighter: The Later Years - Part 4. And yes, this time there will be plenty of new episodes, one debuting each month. Also I was home last week. I got home Saturday morning, went up to Reading and had a great time. All you can eat pasta, tons of other food, tons of drink. Good times. After that I pretty much laid around the house watching TV all week, Matlock and Bonanza of course, and just relaxing. That's about it. And a lot of eating of course, but as we all know that's a given. But I'm home now. I got a lot of catching up to do.

Peyton was on SNL this week and I didn't catch all of it but man, these two sketches are pretty funny. I saw the 300 and it had me laughing pretty good but I didn't see the United Way one until today and it's even better. Who doesn't like Peyton Manning?
Street Fighter: The Later Years - Part II is now out. I know how hard it was waiting, but it's here now so check it out. Oh man does it leave you begging for more. And in case you haven't seen the first one, shame on you. I posted Part I below but then you gotta go to the link above to watch Part II.

Ok, there's nothing wrong when someone chooses not to have sex. If they wanna wait, that's fine by me; more power to you. However it IS sad that you'd have to '#5. Make a scrapbook.' to force yourself from having sex. Or '#7. Have a potluck dinner. Assign a food category to each of your friends and set a date.' Or how about if you just plain need to go to this website to abstain from having sex because just about every one of the things on the list is completely retarded. If you need a website to tell you to '#55. Take a nap.' instead of having sex, you should probably just decide to have sex whenever you can because if you don't, you might never EVER have sex. But if you do end up making the decision to hold off, you may as well go pick yourself up this l33t printable Pledge Card so you can throw it in your wallet and remind everyone you're a retard every time you buy something. Sorry right wingers. Your kids are going to have sex. Don't make them losers growing up so they end up shooting up a mall full of people because they got made fun of in school AND didn't get laid on top of it.
I just this was pretty funny. Funny enough to share.
A man in a hot air balloon realized he was lost. He reduced altitude and spotted a woman below. He descended a bit more and shouted,
"Excuse me, can you help me?
I promised a friend I would meet him an hour ago, but I don't know where I am."
The woman below replied, "You're in a hot air balloon hovering approximately 30 feet above the ground. You're between 40 and 41 degrees north latitude and between 59 and 60 degrees west longitude."
"You must be in Information Technology," said the balloonist.
"I am," replied the woman, "How did you know?"
"Well," answered the balloonist, "everything you told me is, technically correct, but I've no idea what to make of your information, and the fact is I'm still lost. Frankly, you've not been much help at all. If anything, you've delayed my trip."
The woman below responded, "You must be in Management."
"I am," replied the balloonist, "but how did you know?"
"Well," said the woman, "you don't know where you are or where you're going. You have risen to where you are, due to a large quantity of hot air. You made a promise, which you've no idea how to keep, and you expect people beneath you to solve your problems. The fact is you are in exactly the same position you were in before we met, but now, somehow, it's my fault."
