Four movies that get my stamp of approval:

Election - parodies student government elections in high school. The sad part is, these charades continue through college. Why on earth would you give an inexperienced kid authority to do anything important with student funds? More french fries on Tuesday? Bigger selection of soft drinks in the vending machine? Rock music during break time?

Do me a favor and never hire someone that puts that on their resume.

American Dreamz - satirizes the phenomenon of American Idol. And for shits and giggles it lampoons Bush’s first term. Hugh Grant is great at portraying smug self-importance. It’s pretty good if you dislike teeny bopper insta-celebrity crapola.

Saved! - I’ve recommended this before when it first came out in ‘04. Still great. In fact, if you’ve ever met anyone in the evangelical movement this is a pretty accurate lampooning at their expense. It is always timely because every week there is some idiot that claims god protected them from certain death, yet he somehow failed to protect everyone else that died a horrible undeserved death. For instance, see the quotes coming out of the recent plane crash in the Congo. Miraculous!

Dr. Strangelove - favorite movie of all time. Perfect in today’s political climate. Way too many memorable quotes. Uniter of hippies and historians.

Funny video: The job market in 2009

Remember that terribly awesome ’80s flick with John Cusack — Better Off Dead? Do you think the paper boy(s) in the film ended up as shareholders of Bear Stearns?

If you are looking for a new show that is witty, yet as offensive as South Park, I highly recommend “It’s Always Sunny in Philadelphia.”

Start with Season 2 or 3 (the first one is okay, but is missing a chemically-imbalanced Danny DeVito).

Unlike Lost or Heroes, the stories don’t really build on one another in any meaningful way… kind of like Seinfeld. The writers basically find a hot topic to parody (like abortion or gun ownership) and look at it in the most absurd angles, making fun of everyone in the process.

Here is a small clip, though you can grab them all with Bit Torrent (… unfortunately they don’t sell copies here in Korea):

One of their best yet:

The last part reminded me of a great story: CIA Realizes It’s Been Using Black Highlighters All These Years

While I still think Spaceballs is the best parody of the classic space opera, below are two fairly comical satires in their own right. The first is the Top 10 Robot Chicken lampoonings of Star Wars:

And the Family Guy recently aired an entire episode that poked fun of the various idiosyncrasies in A New Hope: 1 2 3 4 5

Reminds me of that mash-up of instruments Dick Van Dyke banged together in Mary Poppins.

Zoolander jokes aside, here are a couple of funny epitaphs found in England:

“Donald Robertson, born 14th January 1785. Died 14th June aged 63. He was a peaceable, quiet man, and to all appearances a sincere Christian. His death was much regretted which was caused by the stupidity of Laurence Tulloch of Clothister (Sullom) who sold him nitre instead of Epsom Salts by which he was killed in the space of five hours after taking a dose of it.”

Another from All Saints Church, Darfield, Barnsley, states simply: “The mortal remains of Robert Millthorp who died September 13th 1826 aged 19 years. He lost his life by inadvertently throwing this stone upon himself whilst in the service of James Raywood or Ardsley, who erected it in his memory”.

Study: Multiple Stab Wounds May Be Harmful To Monkeys

Reminds me of the classic quote:

Smithers: [To frozen Burns] Oh, Mr. Burns, we’ll thaw you out the second they discover the cure for seventeen stab wounds in the back.

I have to come clean, I sold Barry Bonds steroids.
