rotfl great commercial. not really original, though, neither unexpected. but fun nonetheless.

I think the roast is going to make a good read, after the event, because we may have trouble in real time with participants,...would not want anyone to feel left out, if they are at work(shudder) or something......



Here are some crude guidelines for a roast, from the Farmer's Almanac

wait, not that one....this one-
http://ezinearticles.com/?Humor---Hosting-A-Roast&id=200962

This guy hits all the basics, including the obligatory retorts, from the roastee, at the finale, after all the jokes are beaten to death, and there is no more energy, from PMSL, or ROTFL, or, DTWTAHO (damn,that will take another hernia operation)

Perhaps it is this aspect of the roast, that makes weary the apprehensive-


(When the roastmaster opens the program, he must keep in mind that there are going to be people in the audience who are not comfortable with poking fun at others. It is his job to tell them that we only roast people that we like and that it is all in fun. By poking fun at himself at the beginning, this will help put the audience at ease.)

I am already preparing, my self-effacing opener, as sensitive and self-conscious as I am, I will try hard to turn the mirror upon myself, to make a fine example for the rest of ya......

I know i am not that clever or funny as some here, and there are some witty folks that would be an asset to a roast, (a harsh contrast to the inordinate amount, of absolutely boring motherfuckers here), and I hope if you think you are funny or clever, you will show up, so we can spread the new-bung-ripping cheer, to the deserving, and the cowardly.....

I suggest going and watching some old Dean Martin roasts, or one of the best ever-The Comedy Central, Dennis Leary Roast-That was one for the record books....

Actually, raven, the hover text is always there, before as well as after you cast a vote. It could just be your browser. What browser are you using? Is anyone else experiencing this? It works as expected for me.

Re: the continuing barrage of "Hey, look at me the big comedian using unwitty sarcasm to insult this stupid feature that I hate so much," Dag kindly asked for a trial of a week. Is it really too much to ask that during this time you not resort to YouTube-style commenting immaturity?

Regardless of the voting feature itself, I personally like what the sidebar is showing me this morning as it's pointing me to interesting videos and conversations that I'd likely otherwise miss out on:
