People are always telling me, “Vince, I love your site, but half the reason I read it is for the comments.” That always hurts my feelings a bit, but I understand. My commenters are funny, which is why every week I try to recognize their brilliance. Hopefully you all know how comments of the week works by now. Nominate your favorite comments in the Comments of the Week post, and I choose the winner at the beginning of the week.

This week’s winner was an easy choice. Token Black Guy took my racist joke about black dudes crossing the street slowly on purpose and knocked it out of the park.

TokenBlackGuy says: WHO TOLD YOU ABOUT THAT? *dials frantically* “LeDarrius. They’re on to us. Kill operation HonkeyDelay.”

See? That’s the spirit of interracial cooperation for the purpose of comedy that made Tower Heist great. A very close second goes to Good Grief in the Michael Bay Demands Big Macs post:

Good Grief says: Hearing of Bay and Big Macs, Olivia Munn begins drafting a “riveting” third chapter to her new book.

HONORABLE MENTION:

DeanExMachina on the Mission Impossible poster:

DeanExMachina says: “No backup…No contact…No plan…No choice…No gays.”

Larry finally justified the existence of Hawkeye in the Avengers Banner post:

Larry says: As long as someone refers to Hawkeye as “silent but deadly” he can be in the movie.

Inspired by Frank Miller’s hatred of Occupy Wall Street, BigDawg expresses a view I’ve long held, but never articulated:

BigDawg: When will people learn? When will the ceaseless ignorance stop? It’s one fedora per crew.

I think Robert Rodriguez’s is technically a cowboy hat, but the point still stands. Same goes for neon Ray Bans.

Elsewhere, GenePoolParty’s pun in the Iron Lady post made me groan pretty hard, which is generally the best measure of a pun.

GenePoolParty: This puts the “Fe” in Female World Leaders.

Moving on, I don’t know what’s weirder, this Ghanian movie about an Alien that kicks a baby, or Michelle07′s comment about it:

Michelle07 says: It inspired me to finally get to work on my screenplay District 9 1/2 Weeks. The tale of two tin twinks trying to takeover toddler town. Needless to say, it’s an erotic journey.

Needless to say indeed.

Shop 101 explained my predicament in the Stevie Nicks Fajita Round-Up post:

Shop 101 says: Telling people that either Lucy Lawless or SNL was ever funny must have been a bitch. Finding that clip is akin to finding footage of Bigfoot riding a unicorn.

I actually didn’t even remember that it was Lucy Lawless in that sketch. Perhaps I’m Xenaphobic and didn’t even know it. And finally, Patty Boots makes the easy joke in the Matrix Goes Mambo No. 5 post:

Patty Boots: I hope Lou got paid for this. He could probably use a little bit of royalties in his life.

Sometimes the easy joke is the best one. Anyway, great job again this week, folks. There were probably twenty more worthy comments that I missed, but that’s why you nominate. NOMINATE.
