I used to have panic attacks on trash day when I was a kid. I would hear the truck rumbling down our block at 6am and suddenly realize that I hadn’t done any arts and crafts projects with last Sunday’s Family Circus. That could have been an amazing placemat for my grandparents! Shit! “I really [...]

I’ve decided to try to start cataloging the media and entertainment I consume, because (a) it’s a lot and (b) unless I start writing about it it just becomes brain poop. So let’s start with the last week of January and try to catch up quickly.
Skins -Netflix Instant Watch
Remember Degrassi High? And Eastenders? No? No [...]

I am constantly confused by people walking INFURIATINGLY slow in front of me on New York City streets. Today, in an effort to distract myself from the overwhelming urge to murder the tourists crawling down Broadway in front of me, I tried to think of reasons why these people move so slowly.
They are detectives looking for [...]
A while back I was performing at a stand up show where one of the other comics decided to forgo his set and instead just list the women in comedy that he has thought about while beating off. (Which, at a “downtown comedy” show is really just about the same thing. ) He included me [...]
I have never been good with girls.
When I was in first grade, at St. Catherine’s all-girls school, I had an imaginary friend named Anne Sidney Davenport. She was good at tennis and ballet and had long wavy blond pigtails like a cocker spaniel, i.e. she was perfect. I didn’t play with her that much, but [...]
Hey internet!
I made a Doritos commercial for the Crash The Superbowl contest. Click on the link below and ignore the loud, irritating website to get to my submission (starring me, Nate Smith, Ben Rodgers, and Mike Still, shot by Paul Rondeau.)

I also shot an independent feature a few weeks ago – LaserGun! Victor Varnado directs, [...]
I gotta say, the country’s vampire standards are at an all time low. Twilight, True Blood, Vampire Diaries – I call bullshit on all of it! Everyone is just too quick to gobble up anything in fangs. Vampires used to be scary, or at least creepy – even in Buffy they made sure to make [...]
A while back, my friend Robyn and I were jamming in Brooklyn, and stopped at one of her favorite coffeeshops. Now, as I have said before, I have a permanent medically diagnosed war going on between me & my entire digestive system, so I can’t really drink caffeinated coffee or tea. I mean, I guess [...]
