Slog - Comments on I’m Not Young, Cool, Nor Qualified, But I Pretend To Be On TV, Man! http://slog.thestranger.com/2007/08/im_not_young_cool_nor_qualified_but_i_pr Do you know this man? Well. I am sitting in my very clean apartment, in my underwear, and it is exactly 1:12PM. I make no excuses for this behavior and I refuse to justify myself; if I have a hankering to sit around my apartment in my underwear all day, godfuckingdammit, indeed I shall do so, and with relish and aplomb. But forget all that. It isn’t what I want to talk about. There are far, far worse things in the universe than me sitting, merely underweared, until early afternoon, thank you, and, basically, all of those worse things are...

I saw this guy open for David Cross at UW a few years ago. He's far from the worst comedian out there, but he's definitely not good.

GREG BEHRENDT


Also, he wrote the wildly successful "HE'S JUST NOT THAT INTO YOU" along with a few other titles.

(not defending him though)

In other words, he's not as big of a waste as you thought. Perhaps you could have tried doing a CURSORY SEARCH on Google.

And you're still a bitchy, whiny, hating waste of pay for The Stranger

I love the guy though. His book has helped clueness woman (myself included) figure out to move on when guys... "just aren't that into you!" I wish I had read his book in high school and college, I would have saved myself a lot of angst.

I thought his show was rather cheesy but much better than a lot of stupid shows out there (HELLO RACHAEL RAY THE GHETTO GOURMET!)

He was actually really funny, if trying to hard to pull off the "I'm still 20" vibe.
Best joke: a trick to remember his last name.

Bacon
Eggs
Ham
Red
Eggs
Nipples
Dog
Toys

For some reason that has always stuck with me.

I totally hate him now and feel used and betrayed that he ever made me laugh. I guess I'm. . . just not that into him.

And I've seen him be really funny on stage. Bits about "There might be cake!" and "Ripped like Jesus" come to mind.

I wouldn't compare him to Dane Cook as much as I'd consider him an older Nick Swardson.

Now, I admit that I haven't read his book, and I couldn't watch his daytime television show based on that book...

...but the book is being turned into a movie...and the cast of the movie is: Jennifer Aniston, Jennifer Connelly and (just signed) Scarlett Johannson.

Don't hate. The guy is living my dream.

Shit, they could have extended for another season with that plotline.

Why you hate him so is because he is one of the many symptoms of the total collapse of American integrity. Celebrity worship should be a crime unto itself, punishable by banning from every place of business in the world. I also agree about Sex and the City. That a half hour was devoted (each week, right?) to their "misadventures" or what-the-hell-ever, is a sick, sad thing that should have culminated in them all being punched in the throats for being entirely too self-important sluts. Similarly, I hate... well, a lot of people in the same fashion. Damn, can't think of any names.

Hold on...
Got one...
...

try, uh... well, Paris Hilton is obvious. How about Oprah? I hate her?
Well! I DO!
