Best of rivercityvibe (plus celebrity tongues)
We’ve been going a year (more, actually) and we have published some seriously funny shit. We need a recap for new readers. Here it is.
My personal favorite so far was the Where the Wild Things are vs. Wild Things post, but people tell me all the time “it’s shit”. I disagree. If I may quote Harry Smith, who taught me English Literature (and why I should love it):“It may not have you rolling in the aisles, but if it does not have you chuckling quietly to yourselves…. there’s something wrong with your sense of humor…!”
Harry was (as no doubt you’ve guessed), referring to Thomas Middleton’s 1613 crowd-pleaser, A Chaste Maid in Cheapside, but the sentiment applies here. Random celebrity tongue follows:
by my reckoning, these are the most popular posts so far on rivercityvibe.com
Wildlife Notes for Foreign Readers
Rush Limbaugh: A Man of Appetites
An Introduction to Schadenfreude
America’s Next Top Model (numerous entries)
“Charles. Get out the rifle. We’re being fucked.”
There is a school of thought that the tale of the German Base Jumper should be here, but I have run out of time. Use the search function.
Thanks as always to the rivercityvibe faithful.… You’ve been real….

Joe,
A classic selection of some greats!
It should include the one about the German base jumper (my personal favorite) – classic Bones!!!
