This Week’s Highest Rated Comments

#5 aunt martha | Jun 10th Score:115

If I found my teenage son in bed with a boy, I’d be mad too I guess. But only because I didn’t start smooching girls until after high school. My children need to fail at the same rate as me. It’s every father’s dream.

#4 stu | Jun 10th Score:122

It’s just really weird that an angry misogynist would attract Chris Brown fans to his blog.

If I found my teenage son in bed with a boy, I would be mad because last time I checked I did not have children so something really weird is going on. Also, my apartment only has one bed so stop having sex in my bed, fake son! Did I teach you no manners?

[Assoc. Editor's Note: Wow, almost all in the same post! Has that ever happened before? Did we just almost set a world record? Well congratulations, ilbobbytables, on getting first place in our almost world record.]

#1 12thpresident | Jun 10th Score:-48
The fact that anyone can take Tracy Morgan seriously enough to be offended by what he says is the most laughable thing I have read all morning.

[Assoc. Ed Note: Well, sure. We're all entitled to our own opinions. But I feel like this opinion was countered many times both here and here.]

Posted in: Ask Dr. Birdie: The Doctor Is In

[Ed Note: My dog, Birdie, asked if she could have the Editor's Choice this week, which is a lie, because she is a dog, and she doesn't ask for anything, ever. Seriously, I know that some dogs ask for stuff, but she doesn't. Oh, she TAKES stuff, for sure, but there is never the asking part first. Just straight to the taking. Anyway, she thought this comment was very funn (again, not true) and she appreciates everyone's support and enthusiasm (no she doesn't) for her new advice column. Please email your problems to birdie@videogum.com. Love, Birdie. (Not actually Birdie.)]

  1. Stu’s post-first-Ball interview:

    “Man, I’m so, I’m so hype right now…

    Anything’s possible…ANYTHING’S POOOSSIIIIIBLEE!!

    ::incoherent sobbing::

    This for everybody in ‘sota. This for everybody in Chicago. This for everybody…and my mama!

    I made it Ma! Top of the world! TOP OF THE WORLD!

    Man, I’m so happy right now. I’m not gonna sleep for a week. I can’t even take all this man…I’m certified.

    I’m certified.

    Michelle, you look good tonight girl.”

  2. C’est Le Weekend

  3. Tracy Morgan should say homophobic things every week, maybe next time everyone on the site will be tied for Monster’s Ball

  4. Haha wow, itsahotdog’s post is definitely sogood.gif.

  5. Hey everyone!!! Just wanted to remind you of the Philly Meetup next week!:

    Yes, Philadelphia. This meetup is so for you. Also, the Monsters demanded it, and so it shall be. An Atlanta meetup too? YES! Check out more details on the Upcoming Meetups page on Mobfd.biz

    I love it when a monster plan comes together

  6. What better place to post this than here.


    Between the Ryan Goslings and Jon Hamms of the world, this is my life.

  7. Good week guys! Lets sing and dance and be merry this weekend! Woo!

  8. Any Sanford & Son fans in tha house? Just curious

  9. It has been a while since I’ve been in the Ball.

  10. So, on Tuesday it will be my one-year commenting anniversary. This was the post I made my first comment on: http://videogum.com/193842/duh-aficionado-magazine-danny-boyle-exploited-the-children-of-slumdog-millionaire/duh-aficionado-magazine/–although I had been reading for months thanks to the hilar-tastic Lost recaps.

    I was so, so intimidated by the Monsters, but everyone was awesome and welcoming and made me feel way funnier than I could possibly be. I even made real-life friends! Double-dream hands! And by making new Monster friends IRL, it’s helped in my therapy for my anxiety issues. I can honestly say that Videogum’s community has made my life better. That’s pretty amazing for a blog in which I once got a shout-out for finding a video of a puppy farting.

    I hope this isn’t too awkward and rambling. I’ll quote a master wordsmith to close: “I chose this place because I like it a lot. I want to stay here forever”–Basil Marceaux Dot Com. I love the Monsters!

  11. YAY FOR INTERNET FRIENDS!!!!

  12. Everytime I visit this place, I just realise that all of you guys are wayyyyyyyy funner than my real friends, my family and the people on the TV put together; basically, GREAT JOB GUYS!

    (PS; I don’t have any real friends, only goblins…)

  13. Here’s to Videogum helping me get mediocre grades in grad school this summer…it’s only grad school!

    Love this place!

  14. Between the Bruins winning the Cup and making my first Monster’s Ball, I think I’ve earned this Friday whiskey. Cheers, ya’ll.

    (I want to post a picture of neat whiskey but I’m afraid I’ll mess it up and all of this success will be for naught.)

  15. Oh thanks, I guess. I would like to cede my Ball placement (TWSS?) to DirtySpaceNews, because I was merely replying to his genius comment. Also, my post was merely an image that somebody else on the internet made. I just found an opportunity to post it.

    Everyone have a great weekend!

  16. Kelly picked me?

    YEEEEEEESSSSSSSSSSSSS!!!!!!!

  18. I really didn’t set out to say the most hated thing of the week, honest. But I either guess you die the hero, or live long enough to see your self badmouth Tracy Morgan and become the villain.
