I got married this year, I'm getting a kick out of best/worst.

8. Daniel Tosh
Somewhere around the 100th time we heard a comic say, "Don't you hate standing in line at the post office?" we seriously lost interest in stand-up comedy. Then we saw Daniel Tosh's Completely Serious special. His material is as fresh as it is offensive, and he's a hell of a lot less exhausting to listen to than Dane Cook.


This is correct. He is hilarious. I'm going to see him in a month or so in D.C. Can't wait.

6. CROCS
Don't be fooled by Heisman winner Tim Tebow: Crocs are not acceptable. In any color. EVER.


THIS.

I hate to say this, because there are a lot of awesome New England farkers -- but the blog link from that was hilarious.

This article made me reflect on this year, and all I can say is that... I did nothing memorable this year.

The high was Donington Download Festival.

The low was losing a really good friend who moved to Aus

Overall, crappy year.

I'd not heard of him before this post, but i'm watching his Completely Serious show, and it is actually really good.

Worst: 1. Men who dance.

Gotta agree with this one. The only people who should be legally allowed to dance are strippers and hobos, who do entertaining jigs for change.

Staring at boobs: good.
Wearing things that make others wonder if you have boobs: bad.

That about sum it up?

Galifianakis is still the gold standard in stream-of-consciousness comedy, sorry Tosh. (Tosh is still very funny though.)

 
D'Annunzio 2007-12-16 03:06:07 PM

I have to partially disagree. I'm not sayin' you have to be "Lord of the Dance" or "Stomp" or some shiat...but being able to bust a little bit of move on a dancefloor always works for the ladies.

Usually Maxim Magazine lists rank pretty high but this was actually a good list.
Hell, at least they weren't spread out over 25 pages.

That's what "my drink and my two-step" is for.

Anything else and you'll just look like that "Berries and Cream" guy from the candy commercials.

The all time worst thing to happen to men.

MAXIM.

 
LouTheNightGuy 2007-12-16 03:16:17 PM  
This really happened.


its fun to start off a post with that but....yeah actually about the dancing thing, i once was dancing with these two sisters at the club i bounce at one night. not sure if it was magneficent feet ;) that sent them over the edge but i banged them both that night. no joke. now, granted i am 6'5 250 and look like an oger on fire when dancing, it just helped me out alot for some reason.

/seriously
//no, seriously

 
TommyBahama 2007-12-16 03:20:05 PM  
the zep reunion was bigger than van halen even if it was only for 1 show.

also, see spear's vagina should be on the worst list.

That's Robbie Knievel, not Evel. Robbie, unlike Franco, is Not Dead.

+1 for the Van Halen reunion

Saw them in Fresno. Eddie proves to the world that he's still the most talented guitar player on the planet.

Do you, by chance, bounce at a bar near Niagra Falls? Were the sisters Canadian?

Not a fan of this Tosh guy, he'll probably go the same way cook did.

As for crocs, the only people who seem to hate them are people who care about fashion. I don't care for people who care about fashion.

3. The Van Halen Reunion
Real rock stars are rare these days, so it's assuring to know that the guys who set the standard in the '80s still can't drive 55...even though they're almost 55. But the best part? They left Sammy Hagar and his Hawaiian shirts at home.



2 things:

1) Don't make a reference to a Sammy Hagar song when you're talking about Van Halen...it's farking retarded.
2) Having a teenager play the bass instead of Michael Anthony is teh suck.

 
NightOwl2255 2007-12-16 03:29:57 PM  
DrRatchet: That's Robbie Knievel, not Evel. Robbie, unlike Franco, is Not Dead.

/Just sayin'


Too bad Robbie ain't dead also. Evel was a douchebag and Robbie isn't any better. Robbie's "jump" over the Grand Canyon was a joke, and could almost be called a fake. How is it a jump over a canyon when you take off and land on the same side?

 
Viewer 2007-12-16 03:30:58 PM  
How could they not include Jessica Alba being pregnant?

I agree with point #1

I disagree with point"2.

Michael Anthony was not missed AT ALL. Young Wolfgang filled in quite nicely and showed some of his dad's skills. I was skeptical at first, but as the show progressed it was obvious that Michael Anthony's reputation as the luckiest bass player in the world was deserved.

 
D'Annunzio 2007-12-16 03:35:16 PM  
A few years ago my brother got married. I was in the ceremony and I was paired up with this hot chick who is a friend of my now sister-in-law.

I spent the night by her side , talking, dancing every song.

When they did the wedding party dance , i was like Fred Astaire, she looks at me and says "whenever you are ready, we can go."

I'm thinking I'm in , so I say "let me finish this drink and we'll go back to my place."

She stops dancing and says "I meant to go back to the table."

D'oh.

The Heroes chick is a funny looking midget. Seriously, MAXIM represents the worst in men.

Nothing like a loser drooling over a teenager playing a cheerleader on TV. A teeny tiny one at that.

kraut7: While I agree that men shouldn't dance, the article is way off by claiming that dancing won't get you laid. I've missed out on more than one potential roll in the hay because I'd rather stick a hot needle in my eye than dance.

I love to go out dancing. I really do. I used to hate it, but then I figured out that all it takes is a basic awareness of rhythm and telling yourself that you are going to go out and look like an idiot in public, and to be OK with that.

Do that a few times, watch other people dance, and you'll become quite good at it.

Every time I go out, at least once or twice I see a girl start to dance towards me, inly to be pulled away by some guy behind her who isn't dancing. Which I find hilarious. And a great ego-boost.

 
Klyde 2007-12-16 04:14:28 PM  
Men Who Dance?

And it may run even deeper than that. Nightclub wallflowers copped another serve when the December 2005 edition of the British science journal Nature published American research revealing that good dancers get more sex.

"Scientists have long suspected that dance quality tracks with mate quality," reveals Lee Cronk, an anthropologist from Rutgers University, who asked women to watch and rate "dancers" rendered as simple stick figures by motioncapture technology.
