And Now for Something Completely the Same
Monty Python's The Meaning of Life is a sketch comedy film that is not far removed from the legendary comedy troupe's classic BBC television series of the late sixties and early seventies--it has the same quasi-surrealist bent and the same level of pushing the absurd, grotesque, and insensible to the outer edges of acceptability as the "Flying Circus" did nearly a decade before. Of course, the very fact is that it's a motion picture, and so the censors are somewhat dispensed with and the writers can get on with the sorts of nasty and shocking things they wanted to do on the small screen, but just couldn't get away with.

Ahmad ZubairPublished about a month ago in Humor My Weekend with a Herd of Competitive Pigeons (Spoiler Alert: I Lost):
Have you ever dreamt of escaping the daily grind and connecting with nature? Well, let me tell you, there's a way more unexpected way to achieve that than a yoga retreat in Bali. This past weekend, I found myself knee-deep (well, maybe ankle-deep) in pigeon poop, surrounded by a feathery frenzy, all thanks to a very unique volunteer opportunity.

Today my roommate and I watched eight hours of Next Level Chef, hosted and judged by Gordon Ramsay. The show has no logic or rules or logic behind the rules, and we have no couch. We sat in two folding Bud Light lawn chairs that left scratches on the fresh paint on our walls.

Today I cried over dehydrated fruit. It’s the new spilled milk. Get with it. This is an ode to anyone in the service industry. But managers, look away. Especially if you manage the undisclosed restaurant I bartend at.
Deidre Lynn ThompsonPublished 2 months ago in HumorGoodbye, Joe
Lookout Joe, you're comin' home. Old times were good times, Old times were good times. 'Lookout Joe' - Neil Young Strange having Neil's lyrics in my head as I think about my own feelings about the passing of Joe Flaherty. I was, once again, surfing pages on my phone after a long day of teaching and discovered that another icon from my youth was gone. I also wondered if this might have been a joke. April first had just passed, and I was ready for anything. But seriously, this? The death of one of my most beloved figures from my childhood? The loss of a man who was a keystone in one of the greatest comedy programs ever broadcast?

This story was originally published on Medium. ************** The smell of manure was thick in Melvin’s nose; as if Drustan, the village painter, was using it exclusively to create a brown mural on the walls of Melvin’s nostrils. He stepped through the field lightly as he carried the large basket of fruits. He was careful to step over all of Lord Leofric’s men, drunken and asleep in the dirt.
Stephen Kramer AvitabilePublished 2 months ago in HumorThe Ultimate Challenge: Defending a Lamborghini Against 10,000 Bullets, Flaming Cars, and a Massive Train
In the midst of the sprawling train tracks, bathed in the golden rays of the sun, sat a gleaming Lamborghini, its sleek lines and polished exterior standing in stark contrast to the rugged industrial landscape surrounding it. Its value, a staggering quarter million dollars, seemed almost incongruous against the backdrop of the impending chaos about to unfold. For hurtling towards it with relentless speed was a massive train, a behemoth of metal and machinery on a collision course with the luxury vehicle.

Ameer BibiPublished 2 months ago in HumorHello. I’m Bubba.
I know, I know. I’m just a rinky dink floor cleaner, the store accessory that customers wouldn’t even know existed if the floors weren’t spotless when they wander through. I’m a behind the-scenes kinda guy. Never been one to toot my own horn, well if I had one… I was never even offered the option of a horn, come to think of it. Huh.. It would be fun though to have a horn. Like a big one- an air horn would be awesome!

Not convinced by us? Here's why you need to be really impressed—or at the absolute least, extremely afraid:
