Some punk ass with a mic was in the mood to ridicule (or flirt with) a model, so he pulled this chick aside and told her one of the oldest jokes in the book. She knew the joke was on her, but that's about all she knew. To be fair, she mumbled something about being a stupid model— a wise assessment, indeed!

I've never been a fan of placing "trophies" above the mantle, but I'm a big fan of Buck. This deer was never alive in the great outdoors, but he knows how to liven things up indoors. Just throw him on a wall and he'll gladly sing songs and tell jokes.

Over the years, I've gone from being the woman who uneasily laughs when a man tells a sexist joke to being the person who rolls her eyes and says, "You know, I don't find that funny, and it makes me pretty uncomfortable."
At the risk of being called a "humorless feminist" (I mean, if it were funny, I would laugh!), I think it's important for women to be honest if a joke makes them uneasy. It may also teach that person that you're not going to be a party to your own denigration, and the jokester may spare the next woman his "humor."

Practical jokes can be hilarious — when you're not the butt of them, of course! But in order to pull them off well, you have to have a certain sense of mischievousness, not to mention stealth. George Clooney is known for his practical joking skills, but if you don't have what it takes to excel in that department, something that was meant to be funny could take a nasty turn for the worse.

We all know that when we're in a bad mood, a joke can temporarily lift our spirits. But Dutch researchers set out to figure out precisely why. And although you may think, as many researchers do, that it's because positive emotions counteract negative ones — the researchers set out to prove that it's more than that.

Well, a comedian who just happens to be her daughter-in-law!
It sounds like the beginning of a bad joke, but comedian Sunda Croonquist’s mother-in-law Ruth Zafrin was not kidding when she filed a lawsuit against Sunda for telling so many jokes about her. Croonquist capitalizes on their ethnic differences in her envelope-pushing jokes — she is half-black and half-Swedish, was raised Catholic, and married into a Jewish family.

English food is not a joke because...
Any cuisine that combines meat with ale gets gold stars in my book.
That's the answer I'm giving for Sam's Fish & Quips challenge.

I've been anxiously anticipating Jason Reitman's third film, Up in the Air, from the moment I first read about the project. With George Clooney on board I was practically giddy, so imagine how excited I was to have the opportunity to talk to the director himself when he stopped in San Francisco during his promotional tour.
The film is one of the many buzz-worthy December movies, and it opens in limited release this Friday.

Confession: upon first receiving It Cosmetics's Bye Bye Under Eye Concealer ($24), I have to admit I judged a book by its cover. It did look, after all, a little infomercial-ish. Of course, seeing that on my most tired of days, I experience extremely hard-to-cover dark purple under-eye circles, I will give any coverup a shot — anytime.
