Someone Incongruous for Congress
Between Democrats, Republicans, write-ins, and independents, voters have plenty of choices today. But what if you still aren’t sold on any of them? Allow us to recommend ComedySmack writer Tom Cully. He may not be “qualified” for office, but he is more than qualified to cash a Congressional paycheck all by himself. And best of all, his campaign ads don’t lie…
Carl Paladino Storms Out of Live Interview
I don’t want Carl Paladino to win the New York state Gubernatorial election. I just wish he could be a high profile candidate in the media spotlight forever. So far, he is SO much more entertaining than network TV’s new Fall shows. (Although, to be fair, Outsourced does almost match him racist joke for racist joke)
Here is his latest temper tantrum. And kind of like the time he sent out a mass email with a real video of a woman being ravished by a horse, he does NOT understand why people insist on labeling good, clean misogyny as “sexism.”

Out of Bounds Headlines
by tom on November 1, 2010. [Huh?,Humor Pieces,Smack]
The NBA season just kicked off, pro and college football are in full swing, the World Series is getting underway, and apparently hockey is a professional sport.
Sports are a daily affair making for fairly mundane newspaper headlines. But every once in a while the gruff, old school Sports Editor gets a little too much tequila in his strawberry daiquiri and lets these gems get printed:
Check out Zoo Patrol for more double entendre filled headlines.
A Guy’s Worst Nightmare
Imagine yourself watching a hot and heavy video when all of a sudden the site kicks you out. It won’t work for you so you have to call tech support. Just be careful what you say. You never know who is listening.
Seriously Though, Vote!
Celebrities such as Aziz Ansari, Gillian Jacobs, Donald Glover and Alyssa Milano made this funny PSA to make sure YOU remember to vote today. Don’t let them down.
Zach Galifianakis Smokes a Joint on Live TV
Much to the probable surprise of the majority of Californians allegedly opposed to legalizing marijuana today, Zach Galifianakis does not fatally overdose or go on a violent rampage immediately thereafter.
The New Mad Tea Party
I think the Cheshire Cat said it best, “We’re all mad here.” Seems to sum it all up.
