Immediately after the clapper comes “My Buddy.” This is completely freaky. Like watching the original Willy Wonka on crack. (not that I have).
For a second there you start to think that you’re dying.
Also, it’s much more impressive wearing headphones, as the author does some nice work with stereo effects.

So, This is definitely one of those “a friend in New York, works with a girl, whose friend this happened to.” But, that is the case. My buddy in New York, works with a girl whose friend is on Match.com. This is her story. It is below in the original email. I did not remove the name of the final guy, it is legit.

Subject: Match NightmareSo I winked at this guy on match. Should have known better considering his screen name was “IvyLeagueAlum”
He responds with the following email……I live in a 31 story high rise condominium, right in the middle of the Buckhead nightlife district. Do you ever come to this area of town to shop/go out/visit/explore?
I went to an Ivy League school - the University of Pennsylvania - for my undergraduate degree in economics and my graduate degree in management (Wharton School of Business). Where did you go to school?What activities do you currently participate in to stay in shape? I workout 4 times a week at LA Fitness. Do you exercise regularly? I am 6 feet tall, 185 pounds - what about yourself? I am truly sorry if that sounds rude, impolite or even downright crass, but I have been deceived before by inaccurate representations so I prefer someone be upfront and honest on initial contact…
I do mergers & acquisitions (corporate finance) for Limited Brands (Bath & Body Works, Victoria’s Secret, etc). Enjoy any of our stores/divisions?
Do you have any other recent pictures you care to share? I have many others if you care to see them.
Regards,John sgnu88 at hot mail

So, I in turn send him a polite “No Thanks” thru the match system which
send him the following email:Thanks for writing to me, but unfortunately, we’re just not a good match. Good luck in your search! Our Portraits didn’t match on: Â* Personality
——————————
To which he replies the following:I think you forgot how this works. You hit on me, and therefore have to impress ME and pass MY criteria and standards - not vice versa. 6 pictures of just your head and your inability to answer a simple question lets me know one thing. You are not in shape. I am a trainer on the side, in
fact, I am heading to the gym in 26 minutes!So next time you meet a guy of my caliber, instead of trying to turn it around, just get to the gym! I will even give you one free training session, so you don’t blow it with the next 8.9 on Hot or Not, Ivy League grad, Mensa member, can bench/squat/leg press over 1200 lbs., has had lunch with the secretary of defense, has an MBA from the top school in the country, lives in a Buckhead high rise, drives a Beemer convertible, has been in 14 major motion pictures, was in Jezebel’s Best dressed, etc. Oh, that is right, there aren’t any more of those!

John
that’s just about as awesome as it gets. I love people.
So, I got an email today from my mom with the picture below:
And all she wrote in the email was:
Which one do you think you are??????????
Hummmmm, I wonder?
If you ask me? that’s awesome. After my little “Glaspey family is growing” stunt, I’ve been in the doghouse a bit. So sad.
So, I ran into someecards.com a while back and just fell in love with them. Then, I forgot about them, then remembered them. So, last night I sent my wife a pretty racy ecard that I’m not going to publish on this site. It was funny though. She came back with this one:
She’s obviously the best.
Although, my buddy Jason Pollock wrote me this one, which is also awesome.
So, blah blah blah, sucks for Portland. Greg Oden is hurt… What a great time to make fun of the rich athletes.
I got into my office this morning and my buddy Matt King is sitting really quiet at his desk. After a few minutes, he looks over and instant messages me OdenRant. You type in a quote for Oden and a quote for Durant and it makes an image of them saying it.
Brilliant. I about fell out of my chair.
Then my buddy Jason Pollock sends me maybe the funniest one yet:
Check it out at: odenrant.com, it’s a little gift from the people that brought you Unthirsty.
I’m very happy to announce that at approximately 12:35 pm this afternoon, I welcomed a new member of the family… into… the family…
Right now I’m playing with what to call him.
Steve? DJ? Lance?
I think I’m gonna have to get to know him a bit before I rush into a name, but all your suggestions are welcome.
By the way, he’s the youngest of 7, if you don’t count the ugly step-child Holly brought into the family. He’ll fit in as the dirt-jumping boy (hence the name “DJ”), and hopefully get along with his brothers Freeride (also very young), Azonic (very old in bike years), XC (my first foster child), Rocky (my first son from a previous relationship), Masi (my 2-year-old roadie), and Classic Steel (my oldest, but most recent foster child).
I hate modern news coverage. HATE THEM!!! During the Utah Mining incident, I got physically ill by CNN within 3 minutes of watching. Completely selling the tragedy of others for their own financial gain. Adding nothing, but continually revolving, empty words to take up space until another NEWS FLASH comes in. It’s so bad that I can’t watch TV for news at all anymore. The Onion brilliantly captures the problem.
We’re down at ASR in San Diego and went to a crazy party thrown by Harley-Davidson and Thrasher. Needless to say these guys rocked!!! HARD!

The more time you spend in front of computers will have a direct relationship to how funny you think this is.
