Oh you like this band? Describe three of their t-shirts.

Did you hear that the bad guy from the Power Puff Girls is starting a karate studio with that four-time Olympic medalist? It's the Mojo Jojo Flo-Jo Dojo.

Nostalgic for the summer of 2016 when my dog would get excited at the prospect of a long walk whenever she heard the Pokémon Go music.

How do you say Reese’s Pieces?

I still have yours from that time as well. 😊😊😊

Before you ask me for advice, you should know that I just realized that the word passport comes from a document that lets you pass through a port.

I hope this email doesn't find you. I hope you manage to evade it for years. The email is ever searching but you are more resourceful.

My dog insists on smelling my breath after I eat anything like an after school special where a teen is trying to hide smoking from their parents.

Look, all I'm saying is that I bought that bag of candy yesterday and I haven't even opened it yet. So I think, I deserve some kind of reward. Like maybe… a piece of candy?

(Eating potato chips at 4am) Hmm… maybe I shouldn't store the potato chips here next to my bed.

I just pressed [cook time] [3] [0] [start] on the microwave instead of the [30 seconds] button. I am so sorry for letting you all down like this. I will strive to do better.

Time to make some hot dogs! (Taking the dogs for a walk)

A very quiet sneeze is a shhneeze.

Yes, I did know that.

Box of Cocoa Pebbles cereal featuring Fred Flintstone and Barney Rubble

How many kids in grocery stores only know these characters as cereal mascots?

[2 people have just gotten cups of ice cream from an ice cream shop] Person 1: This is my favorite flavor! Do you want to try it? Person 2: Sure! [Person 1 feeds a scoop of ice cream to Person 2] [Person 1 has an excited, anticipatory expression as Person 2 contemplates the flavor] Person 2: Well, I'm glad you like it. [Person 1 is annoyed and takes this as a personal affront and will hold a grudge against Person 2 and it will build up over time until one day they yell “Oh yeah? Well more for me!” at a completely inappropriate time where the context doesn’t make sense and they will feel silly and start laughing when they try to explain what just happened.]

I couldn't believe the loud sound made by the container of counterfeit tennis equipment falling over. It was a real racket racket racket.

I stayed up too late and now need some pre-breakfast. A little bit of an early muncheon. Just a tiny snackerbite.

Imposter Syndrome

Me: Wow, remember that fun movie I watched hundreds of times as a kid? I wonder if that director made anything else I know.

Wikipedia: This universally panned movie not only destroyed the careers of the director and cast, it lost so much money the studio went out of business.

Me: I see.

I really wanted to get a job adding up all the best flavors of ice cream but it turns out there's no accounting for taste.

A person brushing dust off the chrome HBO logo.

I was surprised to learn that there’s no CGI in the HBO intro. It’s all practical elements. youtu.be/wqzihgR_-SI?...

Sketchbook.

It still cracks me up how often I will pick out a podcast to listen to while I work and immediately have to pause it because I'm doing lip sync for the next animation.

Yes please!

I know I'd be a bad TV series writer because when I see something on screen like "5 years later" my first instinct is "No! Show me all the parts where it all worked out and everyone was happy."

Overheard a conversation where the first person said "We got our first computer in 1998." and the second person said "Oh wow! So you were one of the EARLY computer people." and I shriveled up and died.

A man and woman in bed. She is thinking “I bet he’s thinking of other women.” He’s thinking of le poisson Steve.
