Rejected By Cracked: Holiday Movie Reboots

December 22nd, 2010 . by Tim Babb (TANcast's #1 Host/Editor Fan)

I broke my recent string of failure and placed at #8 on Cracked’s latest Photoshop contest. The theme was holiday movies getting gritty reboots. As usual, I had many more entries and I think many of them were much better than the one they chose to put at #8 (and most of them are better than what they chose to put at #1, but hey, what do I know. My “karma” is at -19 and sinking like a stone) But take a look and tell me what YOU think…

Rejected by Cracked: Sequels We’ll Never See

December 15th, 2010 . by Tim Babb (TANcast's #1 Host/Editor Fan)

I know I said the last time I posted one of these blogs that I wasn’t going to enter any more Cracked Photoshop contests. Well, I should have listened to myself, because I entered the latest one and got shut out. Not ONE of my entries made the list. Maybe I should stop posting bitter blogs about it when I don’t win? Nah…that can’t be it.

Well the latest contest was for sequels we’ll never see. (By the way, the winner made an “Old Yeller 2” poster…but there ALREADY IS an Old Yeller 2, it’s called Savage Sam. Lame!!!) Here is the genius that Cracked chose not to share with you:

This was my favorite. But when even Andy said it was too dark, I had to take a look at my soul. (I”m glad I didn’t put the shower joke in there that I was originally planning) Read the rest of this entry »

Tim Babb: Fair and Balanced

December 8th, 2010 . by Tim Babb (TANcast's #1 Host/Editor Fan)

Ok after my anti-conservative rant, I found an anti-liberal joke to cleanse the pallet:

Full of Hot Air
A woman in a hot air balloon realized she was lost. She lowered altitude and spotted a man in a boat below. She shouted to him, “Excuse me, can you help me? I promised a friend I would meet him an hour ago, but I don’t know where I am.”

The man consulted his portable GPS and replied, “You’re in a hot air balloon approximately 30 feet above a ground elevation of 2,346 feet above sea level. You are 31 degrees, 14.97 minutes north latitude and 100 degrees, 49.09 minutes west longitude.”

She rolled her eyes and said, “You must be a Republican.”
“I am,” replied the man from Texas. “How did you know?”
“Well,” answered the balloonist, “everything you told me is technically correct, but I have no idea what to make of your information, and I’m still lost. Frankly, you’ve not been much help to me.”

The man smiled and responded, “You must be a Democrat.”
“I am,” replied the balloonist. “But how did you know?”

“Well,” said the man, “You don’t know where you are or where you’re going. You’ve risen to where you are due to a large quantity of hot air. You’ve made a promise that you have no idea how to keep, and now you expect ME to solve your problem. You’re in EXACTLY the same position you were in before we met, but somehow, now, it’s MY fault.

See? THAT’S funny!

Was I Ever This Deluded?

December 8th, 2010 . by Tim Babb (TANcast's #1 Host/Editor Fan)

So I was on Cafe Press today (looking for great deals for you folks at the TANstore and/or Tim Babb’s Comedy Shop.) and I came across this sticker:

What. The. FUCK?!

I am offended on many levels…first as a comedian, this isn’t funny. Second as a graphic designer, this LOOKS like shit. I mean sweet Jesus, dude! Did you spend 5 minutes making this with MS Paint? For fuck sake, show some pride in your misinformation! And that brings me to my third level of offense. This person has clearly no idea what they are talking about! You can’t even say they’re just parroting Fox News…they’re just spouting gobbledygook. Let’s go through, shall we? Read the rest of this entry »

Hey…That’s MY Joke

December 3rd, 2010 . by Tim Babb (TANcast's #1 Host/Editor Fan)

Some of you may be familiar with the joke in my act where I overhear someone at Disneyland asking “What time does the 3 o’clock parade start?” In fact there’s even a t-shirt of it in the Tim Babb COmedy Shop (That you can get for 25% off when you use coupon code “HOLLY” at check out before 9pm PST on 12/3/10: http://www.cafepress.com/dd/37612178)


Get that deal, baby!!

But thanks to the lovely Jennifer, I have recently learned that Disney has stolen my joke! Observe this t-shirt currently for sale at Walt Disney World:

Really Disney? I have so little and you have so much? Did you really have to Carlos Mencia my t-shirt idea? Plus you added Goofy! How can I compete with Goofy?! Now everyone will think I’m ripping YOU off instead of the other way around. You hurt me, Disney, you hurt me real bad today. A hurt that can only go away if a bunch of people go to the Tim Babb Comedy Shop and buy the ORIGINAL, Babb designed, 3 O’clock Parade Shirt! (Makes a great Christmas present…and I am shameless)

If I truly wanted to be honest, I would point out that Netcot had a 3 O’clock Parade shirt in their store before I did…but I’m not going to because
a) I was doing the joke in my act long before there even was a Netcot Podcast
b) Netcot no longer has that shirt available
c) It makes me look like a huge hypocrite
