Things Making Me Laugh Out Loud Lately

The world has been a sad, tragic place this week. :-/ While I definitely can't make sense of such heartbreaking things as bombings, explosions, and natural disasters, I thought that perhaps at least I could provide a little break from all the horrible news and bring a smile to your face.  Here are two things that have been making me heartily laugh out loud lately... 

The first is Demetri Martin. I first saw this incredibly hilarious observationalist (is that even a word?) comedian at OU in 2006.  I recently saw him again at the Largo (which was quite an eccentric experience in and of itself).  I honestly haven't laughed that hard in a longgg time. I couldn't find a video of his set at the Largo, but here's one that includes several of the same jokes he told at the show.  So. Funny. 

If you know me at all, you know I love the hilarious ridiculousness that is the Bachelor.  You also know I love the Upright Citizens Brigade comedy club. By some incredible stroke of genius, these two glorious things collided and the result is Burning Love, a hilaaarious web series with tons of legit actors/comedians that essentially mocks the Bachelor like crazy. hahah. I regrettably missed the debut season, but I just finished watching season 2 (The Bachelorette version!).  Even you aren't a Bachelor fan, I think you'll still find these 13 minute webisodes incredibly funny. Here's a preview...

I hope those made you chuckle a little bit. If not, here's one last attempt...
