Police Officer Tribute @ AT&T Park
thelongneckgiraffe: seankeane: Nice move: The Giants brought out families and colleagues of police officers killed in the line of duty. They had a moment of silence, a helicopter flyover, and a police officer sang the national anthem. Not-so-nice move: They dressed up mascot Lou Seal in a police uniform and invited him on the field for the ceremony. There’s never a good time for Lou...

Intro: “If you were a child of the ‘90’s, then Regulate by Warren G and Nate Dogg was probably your jam. Here is a critical analysis of the song by comedian Sean Keane. If only all gangsta rap had such deep meaning” One of the commentators replied, “‘Comedian’? Really?” I have never been stung so badly by punctuation before. However, I am glad...

More Depressing Convenience Store Buys
In response to this post: Jack and I stop to pick up ice cream at a convenience store that, for a moderately-sized corner market, has a staggering selection of Ben & Jerry’s ice cream. My companion nabs his favorite flavor easily, but I have to lunge to reach the Peanut Butter Cup sitting at the bottom of the freezer bin. Staggering selection requires a staggeringly deep freezer bin, I...

Strippers love the purple onion
The Purple Onion is a great comedy venue, and has been an SF institution for decades. But only in the last week has it had a mascot: a young man dressed as an actual purple onion, walking through North Beach and passing out flyers for the show. The costume is at once magnificent and completely ridiculous. According to both young men who have donned the costume, it is surprisingly lightweight...

When pandering goes wrong
I was at the Purple Onion this Friday and Saturday. The first show Friday was a benefit for a citizens’ environmental justice group, and also the first time I’ve heard a San Francisco audience boo at a mention of Obama’s name. At first I thought, was this audience replaced by one from Fresno, or Alabama. Then I realized, they were booing Obama from the left. Take notice: six...

Sean Keane and Jay Starr Discuss Juggalos and...
Jay: I didn't think that Juggalos existed outside of the white areas that the government decided it would be OK to let die after Katrina
Sean: I also thought it was just Utah, Arizona, Iowa
Sean: And Mordor
Jay: I think I remember a scene from Fellowship of the Ring where Boromir snuck a look out of a Moria door, grimaced, and said 'They have some Juggalos'
Jay: And a CG Legolas ran around on Shaggy 2 Dope
Sean: haha
Sean: Then Gandalf broke the bridge guarded by Violent J
Sean: But on his way down, Violent J sprayed him with Faygo soda, and Gandalf died
Jay: "YOU SHALL NOT RAP!"
Jay: Is what Gandalf said

Violent J on ICP's Bizaar, Bizzar Ride →
Yeah, I guess it’s Juggalo day. Was there a beginning to that feud? [with Eminem] There was a lot of his underground stuff of his from back in the day, “fuck ICP/buy my cd” that kind of thing where he’s just going off on us. So on a radio show we did a parody of “My Name Is” and called it “Slim Anus.”

Juggalos: A Wikipedia Perspective
jaystarr: Aspects The term originated during a live performance by Insane Clown Posse. During the song “The Juggla”, Bruce addressed the audience as Juggalos, and the positive response resulted in Bruce and Utsler using the word thereafter to refer to themselves and their friends, family, and fans, including other Psychopathic Records artists. Juggalos have compared themselves to a family....

highlights from the 1904 olympics
sportscentr: indian: also the ice cream cone was invented A Cuban postman named Felix Carbajal joined the marathon. He had to run in street clothes that he cut around the legs to make them look like shorts. He stopped off in an orchard en route to have a snack on some apples, which turned out to be rotten. The rotten apples caused him to have to lie down and take a nap. Despite falling ill to...

Goldman Sachs Internal Memo →
By the legendary Farley Katz. I ask that, in celebrating our raping of the stock market, we show restraint in the following ways: Please limit high-fives and chest bumps to a dozen a day. Don’t wear your crowns, except around the office. Stop paying for things in Monopoly money—I understand it is the same as real money to us, but there have been some complaints. For now, let’s take down...

Alex Koll fills in as guest host for “The Digg Reel” on Revision3, and totally coincidentally, there’s a plug for Elevator to Space! (Spoiler alert: I get hit in the face.)  There’s also air guitar, vodka shots, auto-tune, rubbing alcohol, and the Zapruder film.  Check it out.
