Hear From Some of Funny’s Finest at Tell Your Friends!
It takes a sharp mind and brass balls to be funny. You’re always risking humiliation with every quip, anecdote, or pun you put out there in the world to ideally get some laughs but more likely than not will just get groans (especially with puns). When someone steps up to
Paramount Theatre Tours – World’s Best Haunted House
If you’ve never been to the Paramount Theatre, read Christy’s recent post that describes just how rad that place is. It is, by far, my favorite Bay Area venue. I’ve been wanting to do this, and post about it, for years, but I keep forgetting. Thankfully, I was reminded by
Broke-Ass Etiquette: Wedding Gifts
Q: Dear Half-Price Headliner, So, I’m friends with a couple getting married, and I’m invited to both the wedding and the bachelor party. Both entail flying out to California. Also, the bachelor party will cost me a fair bit of money. So, what is the etiquette on wedding gifts? I

Man do I feel bad for lactards. No cheese, no milk in their cereal, and especially no ice cream. Fuck that’s rough. One of my good friend’s in high school had the deadly combination of being a stoner and being lactose intolerant. Every time we got irie we’d end up
