ask mefi doesn't know funny
I feel like this is one of the funniest things I've ever written and it didn't get favorited once. Why do I care? I don't know but I do.
Why do people all hope we'll find extraterrestrial intelligence? I don't know that either. It's illogical.

I'm not sure I get this Canon XSi ad
I think it's about a little white boy ... who turns into a girl ... then back into a boy ... then he turns black ... then he makes it into the NFL!
Yay! Let's go out and buy thousand dollar cameras.

15 Minutes?
By my math, if only one person can be famous at a time, everyone should be famous for more like 39 seconds. That's probably a bad assumption, however, since the Earth can clearly support more than one famous person at a time. It goes to 13:20 if you assume 20 people at a time. That averages to 1 famous person at a time in the US, but I'd say the US can support 10 famous people at a time at least. This means that each of us can now be famous for over 2 hours! I propose we keep 10 people on TV at all times, swapping out the one who's been there the longest every 13:20.

G-R-O Led Salad Great!
When you realized that the internet was optimized for finding song lyrics, what was the first song you looked up? Mine was Those Were the Days, the intro song for All in the Family.
Listening to this song again, I realize that we finally did get "a man like Herbert Hoover again". Thank goodness we're finally almost rid of him.

The Botwins Must Die
However, now that I've gotten through the first disk of the third season, I'm pretty much ready for all of the characters (except maybe the little kid) to get killed. Unfortunately, I know there are at least 2 more seasons.

Star Trek Enterprise final episode
For a long time, I felt like I was only one who liked the show Star Trek Enterprise. And then it switched from the WB to UPN (or vice versa?) after the third season and I didn't have the channel that it went to. So I had to wait years for the final two seasons to come out on DVD. During this time, I misguidedly defended the show to its critics, not knowing how much the quality declined in those two seasons.
While I was waiting for these seasons to come out on DVD, I was secretly hoping for a final episode that ended with the following encounter:

Many years in the future, a very old Commander Tucker is finishing a guest lecture at starfleet academy. After the lecture, a very young man with a Scottish accent approaches him from the audience to say "I jest wanted ye' te know thut I rrealy enjoyed yer lecturre."
A simple connection to TOS to wrap the whole thing up.
You can imagine how dissapointed I was with the "real" final episode. I barely remember it, but I do remember that Tucker gets killed and five minutes later, nobody cares. ... except me.

The Simpsons' final episode
I think 3d Homer has been living in our world since 1995. It took a couple of years of trying to get back into the 2d world for him to finally accept his fate and figure out a way to make a living. He eventually did and has, since 1997, been writing for The Simpsons.
This would explain why the quality of the show has gone down so much in the last 11 seasons (Homer is not a very good writer). It would also explain why the character of Homer has turned from an everyman into the stupidest person in the world. It's Homers own self deprecation.
Anyway, the last episode is a live action show about 3d Homer's conflict about having to write the final episode and say goodbye to his family. What will become of them?
