Superdome

We certainly live in the future if an entire city flees disaster in a place called Superdome.

Serious best wishes to Nawlinsers, if best wishes from sketch comedy blogs mean anything.

Hey, knowing New Orleans, I bet that when they heard there was a gigantic hurricane, everybody went to go drink it!

Oh my god. Such poor taste. I'm so sorry.

Alex said...

Wait, but seriously, I bet that in New Orleans, instead of "Show us your tits!" they're all shouting, "Show us your sympathy!"

No, seriously, I'm very sorry.

I heard that all the people that can't fit in the Superdome are being ushered into chef Paul Prudhomme.

Jesus. Have to stop. I'm so sorry.

Too soon! Too...during?

Well, right now, nobody has been injured, and the winds have slowed down a bit.

So time for more jokes?

Such as...

..."Hey! Anyone been to Louisiana lately? Well, if you go...maybe you'll want to stay in the new dwelling trend blowing through - I mean sweeping...where are my manners? What am I, FRANKENSTEIN?! I mean...let me get back to...does anyone ever want heard of the new houses that people are sleeping in in Louisiana? Anyone? They're called: NEW OR-LEAN-TOs! You understand right there? Yeah!Yeah! You know it!"

1802, actually.

In 1801, we had that delightful roast of the Earthquake in São Sebastião. It was so successful, we made it a regular deal.

Okay, Alex. Be honest. Did you really know about that 1801 earthquake fact off the top of your head?

I think it'd be kinda funny if they started blasting The Scorpions' "Rock You Like A Hurricane" over the Superdome loudspeakers. Not full out hilarious or anything, but I think at least 15 percent of the folk in there might get a kick out of it.

How could I forget our first Natural Disaster Roast?

Btw, how's our pitch for that going with Comedy Central?

Is it true you're getting Katrina and the Waves to play at that?

(Badda-BING! Came up with that one on my own!)

I'm sorry...I'm not really realising how many people have been hurt. I apologise...

...But before I go:
"THIS Katrina's not only 'Walking On Sunshine'...but the whole Gulf Coast!"

And now I'll leave, and if there's any justice - an anvil will fall on my head while I wait for the Scary Bus.
