Commented on Trivia On Net

Flashback, January 23, 2005: "Browsing through this week's Entertainment Weekly, I cam across a Trivia contest that you can enter online. The grand prize is poor ( "a selection of DVDs") but the questions are reasonably challenging. The trouble is,...

Posted Super Tuesday to YesButNoButYes

In 2006, my New Jersey household was deemed important enough to warrant a robocall from Joe Piscopo. Joe hasn't called this election cycle, but I did learn something from a less-celebrated auto-dialer (some local politician): registered NJ independents can...

Welcome to the YBNBY Hall of Fame - celebrating the some of the best stories we've posted in the three years that we've been publishing. Just to take a break from the pornography-themed HoF inductees (don't worry, there'll be...

Posted History's Most Terrifying Sports Riots to YesButNoButYes

I have never played a part in a riot. Once I watched as Carlton Fisk and Deion Sanders came to blows at Yankee Stadium in the very early 1990s, but it never occurred to me to get involved. Or that...

Posted That Lovably Crazy Eddie to YesButNoButYes

I've been looking into the whereabouts of past advertising icons for mental_floss. Nothing had me more mesmerized than these classic Crazy Eddie spots, many of which I found at Must-Be TV. Lots, lots more craziness after the jump....

Posted Popular Drugs, Ominous Labels to YesButNoButYes

"Happy Fun Ball" is one of my favorite Saturday Night Live commercial parodies. After doing some reading of actual drug warning labels, I realized this sketch wasn't much of a stretch. • "Gas with oily spotting, loose stools, and...

Posted Rizzuto on YouTube to YesButNoButYes

Sad news about Phil Rizzuto. I was a huge fan. And I happened to be at Yankee Stadium for Phil Rizzuto Day in 1985, where Tom Seaver (of the White Sox) won his 300th game and the Yanks gave Scooter...

Posted No More Flat Chests! to YesButNoButYes

This is labeled as a bra ad from Argentina, but it could very well be an ad for implants. I don’t speak much Portuguese, and the subtitles aren't helpful. But they are funny!...

Posted A Tom Snyder Tribute to YesButNoButYes

For a brief period in the mid-1990s, Tom Snyder was my favorite talk-show host. I remember a brilliantly uncomfortable interview with Gary Busey. Tom repeatedly lobbed softball questions, and even took a call from Busey's mom. Then Tom casually...

Posted "If You're Into It" to YesButNoButYes

I'm trying to plow through saved episodes of Flight of the Conchords before my TiVo runs out of space. This morning, this scene from episode four had me laughing. An earlier live version is after the jump....
