  • Side Project Swag (Or, Silly Ideas That I Continue To Spend Money On)

    Number of comments: 3

    Side projects are what I name ideas that should have been briefly discussed and quickly forgotten but instead, they become domain purchases and weekend obsessions.

    Here’s an update on the side projects I’ve got running been paying GoDaddy to host:

    Did you know adult pig costumes are available on [...]

  • The Emancipation Of Mimi (Or, So, I Started Doing Stand-Up) (Again)

    Number of comments: 2

    It’s been a while, no?

    Apologies for my blogging absence, but when your last three posts are months apart and each one ends with an empty promise for a return to regular blogging, it’s probably good to take a step away and reevaluate things. So, that’s where I’ve been.

    I’ve also [...]

  • YouTube Fame Sketch: Starring Cinders The Pig

     

     

     

     

     

     

    This is a sketch I wrote for my SNL sketch writing class. The premise: YouTube animal stars catch the collective attention of the internet for just a few short days or weeks. That must be a lot to deal with. In this sketch, issues stemming from their sudden and brief [...]

  • Auto-correct Brain Chip Needed

    It was a normal Tuesday evening.

    I went for a run. Heated 200 calories of condensed, sodium-infested frozen food. Did a load of laundry.

    You know, the things that make suburbians totally jealous of my crazy lifestyle.

    And then it happened. I saw a large black shape in my peripheral.

    First thought, “IS THAT [...]

  • Thug Life Crayons: Another Sketch

    Number of comments: 2

    This is a sketch I wrote for my SNL sketch writing class. The premise: crayons can live that thug life too. After the sketch, check out the animated version that a classmate made for me. Sometimes I wish I could make animations like that, but most times I know that [...]

  • Facebook Baby Adoption App: A Sketch

    I’m currently in week five of an SNL writing class. Our first assignment was a commercial parody. Here’s what I came up with:

    FACEBOOK ADOPTION – Announcer, Betsy

    (OPEN ON: Man in suit in home setting)

    ANNOUNCER
    Tired of updating Facebook with witty
    status updates, thought-provoking “About Me’s”
    and fake birthdays, only to [...]

  • #Goodbye @mtvnews, Hello New Chapter

    Number of comments: 5

     

    Yesterday was my last day at MTV News. Today is my vacation. Tomorrow I start at Arnold Worldwide, the first NYC company I ever interviewed with.

    Below is my “goodbye” email, which attempts to encompass both gratitude and excitement. Below that, is just a reminder that MTV’s Twitter Jockey, Ms. Gabi [...]

  • Can Someone Steal My Jokes And Tell Me How Much They Go For On EBay?

    Number of comments: 1

    If you write a blog that’s occasionally funny, people will tell you to try stand-up. It’s really just a correlation/causation mishap, but when enough people tell you this, you might go to a two-minute open mic. You’re even more likely to do this after a company-sponsored open bar. I just [...]

  • Florida (And It’s Ugly Baby)

    Who told Florida its baby was cute?

    You know which one I’m talking about. The weather.

    And if you talk to a Floridian, they’re sure to mention it.

    But I’m sorry friends and family, 90 degrees and high humidity isn’t beautiful, it’s consistent.

    You have an entire season devoted to storms that usually cause [...]
