Do you remember 2006? I don't, but from what people tell me, it was a banner year for me writing things about things and posting them on the internet. (Unfortunately, I'm still waiting for someone to write me and let me know what the hell a "banner year" is.) It was something of a simpler time back then. Social media had not yet gone mainstream and about the only thing around that people used was MySpace, which basically limited you to organizing your friends by importance and finding new ways to use sparkle text on your profile page. Having your own "blog" was a pretty cool thing to do and no one thought twice when you spent a lot of your time writing articles on backwatershitthatnoonereads.com.
But flash forward to today. Facebook and Twitter lead the pack for keeping tabs on your friends/strangers/hot cousin and the closest anyone gets to reading an actual blog is when someone posts that they updated their Tumblr. Remember when we used to write notes on Facebook? Yeah, nobody does that shit anymore. In fact, if whatever you post can't fit into 140 characters, be prepared for all of your replies to be, "that shit is too long bro! you expect me to read all that?" At one time, I did but not now. I understand that you've got places to be and people to hang out with. I know this because you're constantly telling me about it Twitter. ("'bout to hit up this coffee shop," like that is a thing I should care about.)
But I consider myself hip and with the times, so it should come as no surprise that I have a wide variety of social media accounts and I spend a lot of time updating them. I've mentioned the Facebook Pollestad.Net page (link) on here more times than I can count -- which means more than 3 -- so it's beating a dead horse at this point. You either follow it or you don't. But that certainly shouldn't stop me from pointing out all of the hilariously funny stuff that you're missing. (Note: I'm using the words "hilariously funny" in a sarcastic way, which should hopefully clue you in that I mean the opposite.) Add into this that I am lazy and the PNC website hasn't been updated in a long while and you have yourself the makings of a new post.
So, please enjoy reading some of the best I had to offer the world over the past six months.
That is only a small fraction of the more than 1,100 things I have wasted my time typing out and more are added every day! If you like comedy but hate laughing, check out Pollestad.Net On Facebook today!

If two people in wheelchairs are having a conversation, is it considered mobile to mobile?
At gay coffee shops, is it still OK to ask for a hot cup of joe and expect them to know you meant coffee?
Despite repeated warnings, back in 1999, I talked about Fight Club a lot.
I can't believe that you're still upset with me. Running over your child with my car was an ACCIDENT. Also, it was yesterday. Let it go.
Found myself in a very shitty situation this morning but I can't really talk about it. It's a fecal matter.

I love it when I walk by a fat guy in a muscle shirt because I, too, enjoy a good game of pretend.
My life is a lot like Man vs Wild, except without all the outdoors stuff. I just sit around and drink pee all the time.

What does proof look like? Just ate 14 cups of pudding and didn't find any.

Do paraplegics ever consider funny jokes to be knee-slappers?
Well, of course it's an unmarked van. If I wrote "kidnapper" on the side, you wouldn't come anywhere near it!
Whenever I start to care a little about the environment, I get stuck behind a Prius in traffic and it makes me want to burn Tupperware.
Long sentences without a punchline are no joke.
