On Watching the Inevitable Two and a Half Men Porn Parody

@the italics are a terrible idea Italics? Are you sure you didn't mean parentheses? Because I definitely use too many of those.

On Watching The Office Porn Parody as a Parody, and as a Porn

@jay Ha! The US version really plays up Jimmy and Sam's relationship for American audiences. They never did it doggy-style in the UK version.

On Watching the 30 Rock Porn Parody as a Parody, and as a Porn

@Tim Chuma Oh no, you're absolutely right. Lisa Ann plays both Liz Limon AND Serra Paylin. Did your universe explode yet? Mine did, but only because I'm shocked she's been able to get so much work.

On ABC's Best in Film and the Trouble with "Authoritative" Lists

CollegeHumor just did a big online poll looking for the 100 Best Comedies of All Time according to our users. Granted some older classics made it into the top (most notably Monty Python), but generally the rest of the favorites represent a much more modern collection, and one I could relate to better. Here's the final list, based on over a million votes: http://www.collegehumor.com/bestcomedy.

On Why More Women Should Write Comedy: A Mathematical (But Not Boring) Study

Hey Kerri, I actually think that what I posited in my article is much more harmless than this. And I don't suppose that one website speaks for the industry, I was just sharing my personal experience as an example of what I was talking about. I totally agree that women in comedy is a very complex issue, but I take mild offense that you boiled down my entire article into "there are more men in comedy because women aren't trying." I know women are trying! I was just pointing out more men are trying than women, which I think is pretty hard to argue with. And I definitely don't think that's the only reason for the imbalance. I suppose I should have been clearer about this, so for that I apologize. It's weird to me that you've divided me from yourself and the 10,000 female comedians you assume I've never considered or heard of. I'm experiencing the same things as you, I'm in the same world, and I wouldn't have written this article if I didn't think I understood it enough to do so.

That video wasn't made by CollegeHumor, actually.

On Why More Women Should Write Comedy: A Mathematical (But Not Boring) Study

I agree that we can't ignore sexism, but using its existence as a reason not to write, to me, is just as ignorant. As is a strangely aggressive statement accusing me and my fellow professional writers of being grossly sexist rape joke writers. I wrote this article to encourage more women to write, not to give them more reasons not to.
