Holiday Humor

May 25, 2009 By Jay Brooks

Today was almost entirely void of work, which I confess seemed a little strange. I’m finding not working is getting more difficult lately. So in a spirit of mindless fun, here are two really funny websites I’ve been looking at over the last week. Neither have anything whatsoever to do with beer but both have had me actually laughing out loud on occasion. Enjoy.
 

1. My First Dictionary

My First Dictionary is a hilarious recreation of those old children’s illustrated dictionaries, only the definitions themselves are hilariously twisted. And the idyllic innocence of the art makes them doubly funny. There’s a new one almost every day and I find myself having a hard time waiting until the next day’s is posted. Here’s an example of the only one that references drinking so far.


 

2. Awkward Family Photos

This was listed in “The Must List” of the most recent issue of Entertainment Weekly, which I was reading over the weekend. It’s simply a daily family photo that one might charitably call “awkward.” Awkward Family Photos has some of the most amazingly bad photos you’ve ever seen in one place. We’ve all seen one or two of ourselves or a friend or relative, but these are soooo bad they’ve come back around to the other side and become good again, just on a different level. Here’s an example, a pair of twins.
