Wait, John Mayer does stand-up?

he tries.

I remember a few years ago talking to a musician who had briefly toured with John Mayer, and having him tell me that Mayer was one of the nastiest, douche-iest people he'd ever met, celebrity or non-celebrity. He said it all revolved around how funny he was convinced that he was, but all of his "humor" had just revolved around making fun of the Little People who worked for him to their faces, playing "practical jokes" on them that they then had to clean up, teasing them with money, etc - really nasty, meanspirited stuff.

I shudder to think what his actual stand up might be like.

I always forget who THE PHILIP DeFRANCO SHOW is with until that second card comes up. Oh yeah, its WITH PHILIP DeFRANCO. I do kinda wonder what made him edit during the totally original "someone in every Italian family thinks they're in the Mafia" bit (which yeah I'm pretty sure started with The Sopranos).

And describing every person person with some 'crazy' aspect that only you're smart enough to notice until you call it out and then everybody notices ("an ice breaker plus a high five-er", "man hands", "close talker", "smells like soup"). THANKS SEINFELD!

Andy, start doing recaps of this guy's videos. PLEASE

I'm not completely sure if there was any conclusion to the previous optioning of Greg Gutfeld to a/the hate pit, but yeah, I'm slightly undecided on whether he should be knocked in, ala' Britney Spears in Epic Movie 2: 300 is gaylol!

I will say, sub-facetiously, he rivals Jeffrey Rosss's's's subtitle of "Roast Master General", with "Analogous King of Fox News Comedy Round-Table". I will even stoop low enough to attack his half-Gilbert Gottfried/South Park character, (lower)-half Jay Leno head. Speaking of, how bout Jay Leno!? Guy's outdated and has a face that looks like a slipper! Hatepit/face-off!

Greg does know how to fill that guest spot though.

I would also like to cast the words, "stinky" and "peeeuuu" in as well. Coupled with those is the notion of waving your hand in front of your nose. Ugh.

And Philip DeFranco. If Dr.Katz is ever revived, we have a stand-up session filler to make up for the 30% of the show that is generally avoidable. Like the non-commentary bits of MST3K. Or something.

Okay, excuse the first-post ramblings. I'm aware that it reads like Sudoku puzzle numbers transplanted to rubik's cube stickers that made way through separate "weed-spot" campus dorms, translated through babelfish and then passed off as a message board post.

allmusic.com: in my Hate Pit! Not for anything reviewer-related -- most of them are reasonably smart -- but because of the weird adware and the constant crippling server timeouts when I'm attempting to look up who did what on some Eddie Harris album or trying to figure out the most recent record some out of print 45 appeared on.

EDIT: Irony! This board timed out when trying to post my reply.

Is John Mayer AKA Nathan Barley?

Oh, Andy.  What are we going to do with you?

[God Stewart]

Thank you, Andy.

Gregory's in my Hate Pit.

He knows what he did. Who cares if he didn't do it?

[TL]

people who drink soda in the morning.

*on second thought, I moving these people into my "hate ditch" where i won't hate them as much, because they often have other redeeming qualities.

Interesting.  I kind of want to hear more, if you're so inclined, Emily.  Like, give us some specifics - who drinks soda in the morning under what circumstances have you observed it, and what's been so galling to you about it?  For the record, I think it's pretty crazy, too, but for some reason, I feel like there's got to be a good story lurking behind your decision to go public with this Hate Pit entry, and I'm really curious to hear it...

I drink Diet Coke with LIME in the morning. Every morning. Mmmmmmm.

Don't hate!

[JonFromMaplewood]

Look, I know it's been about eight years since this clown did anything that anyone noticed, but my loathing for him is so profound, that the taste of bile still lingers in my throat.  He embodies much that I dislike...

-music that fuels unconstructive anger (if you have a sense of humor about it, that's different)
-honkies who think they're Kool Moe Dee
-bald men afraid to show their baldness

If my Hate Pit was built for anyone oh so long ago...If I mentioned anyone's name while drafting the plans with the architects and searching for subcontractors, it was Fred Durst.  Carrot Top and Will Shortz are just passing through.  But Fred Durst will have his Medicare and Social Security checks dropped down to him many years from now.

Emily, I used always to drink a Coke in the morning instead of coffee.  Even now, when I'm too lazy, or my stomach is too uneasy, or I have a particular kind of headache, I'll crack a can of Coke when I get up.  Oh well.  My father once said my family lives on the shoulder (as opposed to the fast lane); it's just a short stumble into the ditch from there, so at least I don't have too far to go.

Speaking of my father, it was his brother--recently deceased, I'm sorry to say--who first fed me Coca Cola for breakfast, when I was just tiny (my mother did not approve one bit).  So I guess I'll have family with me in the ditch.  That's nice.
