I think so? To be honest, I haven’t seen 2 or 3 in years. It’s hard to compare it to the originals, but it does pay very funny homages to them. The dearth of comedy movies sort of skews everything. It’s definitely worth seeing for sure. Its heart is in the right place.

Liked Naked Gun. Didn’t reach the highs of the original (or the TV show), but it’s easily the funniest movie I’ve seen in a decade or more.

As with all great historic architectural achievements, the King’s scribe shares visions of the tremendous plans via colored inkjet printouts.

Dustin May. Fine. Not Joe Ryan. But whatever. Feeling more like next year is THE YEAR.

The satire here captures a certain kind of Trump official inanity, but in the end, I just couldn’t buy into the Secretary of the Interior having no clue how either energy, the sun, or the concept of time works. Thanks for the look, but I’m going to pass.

Oh look that person you went to college with who always arrived late then proceeded to hijack the room with a comment more than a question at the very end of class has found a job.

Thrilled to have the funniest iced-coffee loving, coke-riddled comedian back on the site today.

God damnit. CSI: Boise isn’t going to be woke any more.

That’s my president.

Lots of confusion at the Pearly Gates right now. An intern is like, “But it says he goes by the name ‘Prince of Darkness,’ this can’t be right” and St. Peter is like, “I know it looks weird, but he’s good to go, let him through. He’s coming home.” #Ozzy 🤘

It's radical commie rags like the Wall Street Journal that got us into this trouble in the first place.

The Colbert Show news is such a bummer. So many good comedy writers work at late-night shows. If this is the end of an era, I hope the networks (or, better yet, some other independent media company--if there is such a thing) can find a new way to showcase their talents.

Should we wait a bit more to post your upcoming @mcsweeneys.net piece or has the shark jumped already?

Everything is else is just noise. Let’s focus on the most important issue at hand: Has Trump pardoned that CEO Coldplay adulterer yet?

Didn’t know you were in Philly! I’m an eternally optimistic sports fan, but my Sixers seem to try all they can to change that.

Pic of Epstein and Trump.

Maybe instead of tepid message signage, the next time Trump addresses congress, Dems should just hold up pics like this.

Super niche piece on the site today. Am a sucker for Philly humor (half my family is from there), so even though the audience is just the folks in Delco and its surroundings neighbors, I had to accept this one.

Actual big factors in terms of life for Donald Trump:

- Diet Coke
- Gold-plated toilets
- When that guy agreed to “assassinate” him
- That party at Harvey Weinstein’s house in the late ‘90s when Clooney and Pitt made him feel like he was one of them
- Ketchup
- The dressing room at Miss Teen USA

Lincoln and JFK are somewhere right now thinking WTF?!?
