NICK THUNE WOULD INVENT BACKFLIP SHOES
Comedian Nick Thune is a good person. We know this because we just saw him on the Good website. They asked him for a good invention idea. He delivered with backflips… or, rather, backflip shoes. It’s not you. It’s the shoes. Gotta be the shoes! Good idea?
THIS SONG IS FOR YOU OVERSHARERS
Comedian Rob Paravonian has had millions of people watch his YouTube rant against Pachelbel. Now he’s got something to say about all of his friends on Facebook and Twitter who are giving him way too much TMI. He’d like to hear “less from you.” He’ll still play Scrabble with you, though.

In case you cannot see it or didn’t see it, it’s as simple as it sounds. Photographs of actual Wal-Mart customers. If you shop there, then you know exactly what’s going on here. Funny, but sad, but true.
