I see Wanna B Ur Lovr sticking around for awhile. I think Al made it looking for a replacement audience song instead of One More Minute, and he found it.

From the new songs, I could see Whatever You Like in the medley. Skipper Dan being performed and CNR being performed. Can't really see Craigslist or Ringtone.

I would have thought the Funniest Member recipient would've been able to recognise a joke when he saw one.
Aw, nerts. I forgot that outright LIES, phrased without a trace of absurdness, can be "jokes" too somehow! Here, let me try:

I had a sandwich for lunch today!

Why the hell aren't you laughing at my joke? I really had PIZZA for lunch!

"Al Gals" would riot if he cut WBUL.

I read it as a joke.
I couldn't tell a dirt clod from a plate of caviar.

Craiglist may have to replace Pentiums for the Al IS hot song. Leather pants and all. :drool:

Wikipedia entry on "irony":
In fictional dramatic irony, the artist causes a character, acting as a mouthpiece, to speak or act in a way intentionally contrary to the truth. This again is a method that highlights the literal facts by giving the example of a fictional persona who is strikingly ignorant of them.

Man, I couldn't have been more ironic. Fred, on the other hand, couldn't have been more moronic.

Yes, Craigslist would be a suitable replacement-with leather pants. Has to be leather pants :)

You never accused me of an occasional inability to recognize irony (you know what, guilty as charged, especially when the truth you're contrasting is trivia unknown to many who DON'T have encyclopedic Al knowledge, the poor souls). You accused me of an inability to recognize JOKES. You never gave me a joke to recognize. All you gave me, by your own admission, was mere IRONY. It's like giving me rock salt and saying it's ice cream.

Can we drop this now? Pretty please?
