Mispelled words, unintentionally breaking things, preheating ovens.
A talking robot dog.
Most Woody Allen movies (especially Annie Hall, Manhattan, Husbands y Wives and Broadway Danny Rose), Good Documentaries, and Lost In Translation when I want to visit Japan.
The Office, Weeds, Family Guy, Aqua Teen Hunger Force and on rare occasion I'll watch a comedy like Dexter.
I like Chuck Palahniuk and David Sedaris a whole lot. They should fight each other. Everybody would pick Palahniuk, but I'd put my money on Sedaris. I think he's a loose cannon.
