Jim Norton.  Funny.
Agree, or disagree?

Sometimes funny, but easily unlikable.

[Diomedes]

Do you think anyone is funny or likable?

Jim Norton.  Funny.

Agree, or disagree?





To be fair, I only see him on Letterman or Leno.  I don't listen to O&A, and I don't have HBO.

Funny, for about 45 minutes. Then annoying.

Down and Dirty with Jim Norton was a decent show that debuted on Friday night, with Norton hosting other comics.

the first comic was hilarious.

ANOTHER police man-hunt near my house

Maybe the idea of moving isn't so bad after all.

Dude that killed a kid yesterday has been cornered in my area.  We have two or three helicopters buzzing around (including one directly - and I mean directly - hovering over my house as I write this), police roadblocks all around, and 2 of my 3 kids' schools were canceled today.

This is supposed to be a yuppie neighborhood.  WTF.

Make sure your guns are loaded and the kids are out of the house. Vigilantism is a good way to pass the time while job-hunting.

Reporting he is "probably" holed up in a subdivision about 1 mile from me.  The news reported that "police are receiving many calls about an African American in different neighborhoods, so they need to check all those leads."

LOL

"Butterhead" arrested in a trailer park 3 miles from me.  No shoot out.  Dammit.

What kind of American accent do you have?

Your Result: Philadelphia


Your accent is as Philadelphian as a cheesesteak! If you're not from Philadelphia, then you're from someplace near there like south Jersey, Baltimore, or Wilmington. if you've ever journeyed to some far off place where people don't know that Philly has an accent, someone may have thought you talked a little weird even though they didn't have a clue what accent it was they heard.

Pretty impressive.  I did not think it would get me correct.

Closed interstate 70 because of this making my commute hell! Shooting the bastich would have made me feel better. At least give me some police brutality!

"You have a Midland accent" is just another way of saying "you don't have an accent." You probably are from the Midland (Pennsylvania, southern Ohio, southern Indiana, southern Illinois, and Missouri) but then for all we know you could be from Florida or Charleston or one of those big southern cities like Atlanta or Dallas. You have a good voice for TV and radio.

That's crazy. How'd they know I have a good face and voice for radio?

LOL, this guy has nine lives:

Clint Malarchuk shot himself in the face

Although Richard Zednik's bloody neck-opening incident last season left many sports fans squeamish for weeks, former Buffalo Sabres goalie Clint Malarchuk's 1989 throat slash still remains the most disturbing and terrifying. (Video here — if you dare. ) And even though it seems statistically impossible for a man to endure two fluky, wince-inducing injuries above the shoulders in one life time, Malarchuk has done just that. Yes, the man who almost had his head severed by a flailing ice skate can has now survived accidentally shooting himself in the chin:

Officers were dispatched to the Malarchuks' home at 2:30 p.m. Tuesday after his wife reported her husband accidentally shot himself, according to reports. When deputies arrived, the paper said, he was sitting on a bench next to a horse tack storage room, bleeding profusely from his chin and mouth.

Malarchuk's wife said when she arrived home from work her husband was in the backyard, and said he had been shooting rabbits with a .22 rifle. She said Malarchuk stood and placed the rifle butt on the ground between his legs and the rifle discharged, striking him in the chin. He reportedly was belligerent with paramedics and with health center staff, refusing treatment.

He refused treatment. Just get him a paper towel and some Wild Turkey and he should be fine. But seriously — Malarchuk's wife shouldn't let her husband butter toast without wearing a knight's helmet.
