‘Snide Remarks’ Classic: ‘UVS-Legitima-C’; also, the Harry Potter interview is pimped again
This week’s “Snide Remarks” Classic is a delightful entry from Aug. 7, 2002, entitled “UVS-Legitima-C.” It indulges in what was one of my favorite pastimes when I wrote for the (Provo, Utah) Daily Herald: making fun of nearby Utah Valley State College. It also received some angry letters, which are always good for a laugh.
Oh, and while I have your attention (I do have your attention, don’t I? DON’T I?!): You should totally listen to this week’s “In the Dark” podcast, right here, because it contains elements of humorous comedy jokes! It’s an interview with Harry Potter — not the actor who plays him, but the actual Harry Potter. For reals! Listen, I implore you!

Yes, yes, go listen to the “In the Dark” podcast. Highly satisfying, and weirdly re-listenable. In fact, I think I listened to Harry answer Eric’s first two questions about 10 times. Very funny stuff.

This article on utahvalleySTATEcollege reminds me of a joke from comedian Nick Thune (funny dude, small part in “Knocked Up,” big part in in-production “Highway 61″) from his Jay Leno appearance:
“The only technical part about a technical college is that it´s technically a community college. And, technically, the word “community” cancels out the word “college” so it´s pretty much a place where adults hang out.
