Man, I love Asher Perlman. He's what happens when you take New Yorker cartoons and make them actually funny.

I think the Mel Brooks scene is satirizing old Hollywood's habit of casting whites in the roles of poc. Plus, I don't see how a yiddish speaking native could be offensive to anybody.

That is the most important tool in my kitchen.

I substituted a knife for the spoon and I feel like it still came out ok.

I like this take but it relies on a critical analysis that isn't going to occur to most people. Most people aren't even aware up the word's racist origins.

I think calling it cannabis helps distance it from it's illegal past. There's a lot of more conservative people out there that still think of "marijuana" as something dangerous and criminal that is used by disreputable people. I think calling it "canabis" will help shed that negative connotation.

For the record, I call it "weed."

Absolutely. I saw them back in the day. A+ performance.

I was pretty into it when we were doing vans.

My dad was two of those things. Well, only two as far as I know.

Letter boxed accepted "shart" as a word today.

This is a joke, right? Nobody actually puts ketchup on macaroni and cheese, right? No way. No way.

Ishtar is a great movie but it never had chance.

The production was plagued with problems and it went way over budget. It was getting trashed in the entertainment press daily before it was even completed. Making fun of it turned into meme. It was a running gag on Johnny Carson.

Eventually, things got so bad with the production that even the studio execs were talking shit about it to the press. They hated director Elaine May and wanted to tank her movie and her career. They got her blackballed, the film bombed and Ishtar got the reputation as one of the worst movies ever made despite the fact that nobody even bothered to see it.

Watch it. It's a lot of fun.
