Funny Voices: Totally J/K

If it’s a Thursday night–this coming one or any other–you’d be well-advised to head down to Rififi for the standup showcase Totally J/K (8 pm, $5) hosted by Joe Mande and Noah Garfinkel .

Each week, before Joe and Noah let any comedians come up and do their thing, they toss a few new entries onto their ever-evolving List of Nothing. "It’s basically a huge notepad that we add to each week," Joe explains. "The list is comprised of terrible ideas–puns mostly–that we’ve rejected as premises for sketches or videos because they’re so retarded." Sounds like something you’d love to read, right? To give you a taste of their show, Joe and Noah have shared some of their favorite entries from the list after the jump.

Laupertunities: Those are opportunities to see a Cindy Lauper concert.
Smallocaust : That’s the original working title for the movie Honey, I Shrunk The Kids .
Sandal in the Wind: The Elton John tribute song to the death of Jerry Garcia.
Pokemon Milosevic: The world’s most adorable and collectible war criminal.
Cyrano De Berniemac: It’s like Roxanne, but with Bernie Mac . (And if we can’t get Bernie Mac to do it, we’ll change the title to "Cedrico De Entertainiac.")
Hispanic! At the Disco: A mariachi screamo band.
"Highst": A caper movie about us smoking weed and breaking into the local Blockbuster to steal a copy of The Sting .
Blom Blanks: That’s what Noah calls Will Smith. (Noah thinks Will Smith is the Black Tom Hanks.)
Tyler Perry ’s Brier Berries: Diarrhea of a Mad Black Woman: A script we’re writing for Tyler Perry . It’s about a woman (played by Tyler Perry ) who goes on a hike and starts eating berries, causing her to get severe diarrhea.
Nut or Donut: This is a TV show we want to pitch. It’ll be exactly like the Deal or No Deal , except you have to decide whether you want a Nut or Donut. Obviously, you always go for donut.
