This is like Tom Waits on a bad acid trip. And I love it.

johngentile (john g.) (July 23, 2011)

I like this!

ozmanx (July 23, 2011)

That Winehouse was quite the character eh folks?

mattramone (July 23, 2011)

I was about to say, this was the perfect post for today.

Cheesetits (July 23, 2011)

Fuck anyone who's lumping her in the '27 years old' category.

greg0rb (July 23, 2011)

Why? Cuz you don't think she stacks up musically? There are a lot more musicians in that thing than the big five or so.

Misanthropee (July 23, 2011)

I've always thought that death list thing was silly anyway. Correlation isn't causation. I have a feeling ODs in the general population follow a similar pattern.

Cheesetits (July 23, 2011)

I don't think anyone is saying it's a cause of anything. It's merely coincidence.

bongsmcj (July 24, 2011)

you really cant do more than 27 years worth of heroin. that shit catches up eventually

noah (July 23, 2011)

Well, is is 27 years of age, so...

greg0rb (July 23, 2011)

Tim & Eric much?

jimmynorville (July 23, 2011)

I Wanna Get High But I Don't Want To Become a Tim & Eric Fan

greg0rb (July 23, 2011)

I want the opposite.

slowstupidhungry (July 24, 2011)

Seriously. I wanna know who will look back at Tim & Eric in 10 years and think they're really funny. I'm guessing the same ratio of people who used to like Tom Green.

cheesecakemafia (July 24, 2011)

i most likely will. and what the hell do you mean "used to" like tom green.

slowstupidhungry (July 24, 2011)

The thing where he's in a plastic bubble getting chased around the park by jocks is funny, but I think we can all agree in retrospect that that dude just got lucky. Tim & Eric are even less talented, if that's possible.

cheesecakemafia (July 24, 2011)

wrong on both counts imo. by lucky i assume you mean he was lucky to get picked up by mtv? not really sure what you're getting at. if the allergy ball is the only tom green bit you like, that's too bad, and i wouldn't really call grown men playing softball "jocks." go watch the subway monkey hour. greatest piece of television ever. as for tim and eric, their off the wall, incredibly uncomfortable sense of humor makes me laugh like nothing else. i truly enjoyed both shows and someone simply saying they aren't talented isn't going to change my mind.

xchemicalx (July 24, 2011)

yes Tim and Eric are completely original and this is clearly ripping them off.

14theroad (July 24, 2011)

I read somewhere that they were the first to use their mouth to make fart noises. FACT.

greg0rb (July 24, 2011)

The more you know!

cheesecakemafia (July 24, 2011)

for your health!

leecorsoisapenis (July 24, 2011)

Great Job!

Wesley_Snipes (July 24, 2011)

I'm calling it, Amy Winehouse died of natural causes.

dlangl4 (July 24, 2011)

I'm with you, because I always bet on black.

hashbrowns (July 24, 2011)

black tar heroin that is.

Cheesetits (July 24, 2011)

I would say that's more like betting on 00. Equal to the percentage that it was natural causes.

14theroad (July 24, 2011)

It doesn't even say what time. I can't clear out my whole day to wait for some burnt out hippie to show up.

sweetbabyjesus (July 24, 2011)

i want beer but i don't want to be fat

MagnetBox (July 24, 2011)

You could always drink light beer, but then you'd be a pussy. Be fat, be a pussy, or be thirsty. Those are your options.

dlangl4 (July 24, 2011)

Beer at night, run all day.

holy_balls (July 24, 2011)

hello my future girlfriend. this is what i sound like.
