3rd Wheel: The Rules About Social Interactions With Singles

Last night a couple of my friends asked me if I wanted to go to a bar and have a few drinks. Naturally I acquiesced and met up with them later that night. I was running a bit late so when I arrived they were already there. Except they weren’t alone…they had brought their new girlfriends along. Thanks, douchebags. This is fucking ideal.

The Birth Of Rantery

Comedy has its roots in dissatisfaction and a vast majority of comedy is really ranting. Getting shit off your chest to a large audience of people is what it’s all about. In an office with 2 comedians and a comedy writer (me) it’s hard not to imagine how many jokes are flung in a given day. It was only a matter of time before someone would come up with a website like this so I took it upon myself to make it happen.
My grandfather had a saying, it goes “If you have nothing nice to say, say nothing at all.” Admirable quote but it was clearly thought up before the internet generation and 24 hour news networks.
In this day and age, if you’re not ranting about something then you’re not living. There’s a lot to be pissed about: A pop star shaves her head and she gets more media attention than large scale military operations in the East, A half-retarded beauty pageant finalist is a US vice presidential nominee, Emo is still around… there is an endless list of topics to rant about.
