I’ve never met Terry (what I call her), but I love the idea that by coming to Philadelphia it suddenly becomes a possibility that I might run into her, cool glasses and all, in her natural habitat. And if that ever happened, I’d probably just say “Hey, Terry. You want to go get a sandwich or something?” Most people probably would have stopped at saying hello. Not me though — I swing for the fences.

Referees from Robert Barocci on Vimeo. Your much-needed sports b-ball fix! “During a timeout, two college basketball referees discuss the finer points of bringing their off-court hang-ups to bear on their on-court performance.” Hooray for Ted!

You knows Eli Braden is the best at Twitter and is also a parody song juggernaut (heard on Howard Stern on an almost weekly basis), but did you know for a mere $20 he will craft a mini masterpiece for you or your business or your motorcycle club?

I am now a Doug the Puppet fan, and dare I say a 2012 Ford Focus fan. These commercials directed by Paul Feig are really funny and make good use of Tompkins’ refined yet aggressive delivery, watch them all. You can even follow Doug on Twitter (@FocusDoug) and read the tweets aloud doing your best PFT impression (put on bow tie and some natty Steam Punk outfit first to get in the mood).

The ever-humble Todd Barry battles Darren Aronofsky’s mustache for funniest character in “The Deli Manager” (also starring actress Natalie Portman of “Mars Attacks!” fame).

I know a lot of you still don’t use Twitter because you think it’s a colossal waste of time teeming with nothing but “I’m so busy! LOL!” and “I’m still so busy! LOLZ!” updates. Very true. But if you’re into wasting time and enjoy a tee-hee or two, you might want to give Twitter a look see. You don’t need to tweet (congrats on the self-restraint), you can just have the window open and enjoy some chuckles.

Join Team UsedWigs as we welcome DC correspondent, SM Shrake, back to the Philadelphia stage to host a very special Holiday installment of StorySlam. I can’t think of a better way to usher out the old year.
