'Sup, pogs!
Let's all go to the movies, and let's all see the same movie, and let's discuss it here.
Gabe loves fan fiction. You Can Make It Up features his own personal alternate adventures starring some of our favorite characters.
After watching Death Sentence, a terrible movie starring Kevin Bacon as a father in search of vigilante justice directed by Saw's James Wan, Gabe embarked on The Hunt For The Worst Movie of All Time. This is his sad journey.
“I don’t think I want to watch this anymore.” – R2D2, Esq., approximately 45 seconds into the clip
So are we in Kansas or not?
I don’t think we are!
We WERE in Kansas. We are no longer in Kansas.
How do all the Kansas monsters feel about this? Flattered?
They have internet in Kansas?
They only get internet when tornadoes blow the wifi signal their way.
I grew up in Kansas. In fact I haven’t gotten a new drivers license since moving to Chicago. But I’m going to soon because nearly every other person who checks my ID takes it upon themselves to make an Oz reference. I’m well past the point of giving them a patronizing smile each time, so it might be in everyone’s best interest if I take a trip to the DMV in the near future.
I imagine that every time someone does that you fake laugh loudly for an uncomfortably long time while maintaining intense eye contact until they slink away in shame.
As well you should, that would get really fucking annoying, I’d wager.
that is how i want to react at the very end of december when people say “see you next year” like that is the most clever joke that no one has ever heard before. ugh.
As a Kansan I’ve been working on a response to this and the general Kansas Haters in the thread (who are just going to hate OBVIOUSLY)(…and not that you, Superglue, were hating) but that turned into a rant and went on for PAGES and started to bore even me.
Anyway, I like Kansas. Not necessarily the people, but the skies are beautiful.
As for the line…you wish you were in Kansas: it’s simple, flat… mostly white *Jokes!* But seriously, it’s lovely. Now, Nebraska? Nebraska is a shithole.
HEY. I got 4 upvotes last time I complimented Nebraska. FOUR HUSKERS FANS ON VIDEOGUM, YEAH! Where you at, Cornhuskers?
As a longtime Kansan and a Husker fan (and someone with family in Iowa, Missouri, Arkansas, Oklahoma) I feel obliged to defend the entire Midwest. Okay, well maybe not certain stretches of I-70.
Jokes! I lived near Lincoln for 6 years and I mad ♥ it.
Besides there is no place as shitty as Gary, Indiana. … Detroit is pretty shitty I guess…and have you been to Iowa? Ugh me with an ugh.
WELP, I think we can all agree that we’re better than Mexico.
did you see the super cut of every zombie kill on walking dead in 70 seconds? It was on your precious boing boing blog site. Also there is some super cut of “he didn’t make it” that I have not yet watched (No spoilers)
“Oh, shit. Black people.”
“Pigpen, I have a feeling we’re not in whatever-town-Charlie-Brown-lives-in anymore.” – Ashley Olsen
I mean, they are filthy!
Pigpen Kate Olsen, you’re the only person I know who can raise a cloud of slut in a snowstorm of cocaine.
“Pigpen, you need to finish writing that copy for All Detergent by 5:00″ — Peggy Olsen
1:24 Planeteers FTW
Lets hear what Captain Planet has to say: “We’re not in Kansas anymore”.
Our powers combine to form a place that is no longer Kansas
was this said in every episode of “Sliders?”
Kansas’ state motto is “Ad astra per aspera,” which I believe is Latin for “You are no longer here.”
Toto, I don’t think we bless the rains down in Africa anymore.
Get it? You get it.
,I don’t think we’re in
anymore.
(Note: Joke may not make any sense if you weren’t born before 1980)
Kansas is so excited for all of this publicity!
It looks like someone in Kansas needs to be more careful around the sharpened pencils.
This joke makes sense to me! Yeah, I am so old!
I bless the rains down in Africa there’s too much Dust in the Wind. (I’ll show myself out)
That’s just the polite way of saying ‘thank god we’re out of that flat shithole’
I look forward to Rich’s supercut of his supercuts being ripped off by major media outlets.
“We’re not in Kansas anymore ” – several religious freedoms, after the 2010 midterm elections
“We’re not in Kansas anymore ” – The theory of evolution
“Kansas Kansas do do do do do do” — Frank Zappa
I didn’t think that reference could happen here.
Anything is possible
I’m not into Kansas anymore, either.
Cock.
It’s ok. I have a feeling there is PLENTY of Kansas to go around.
Oh man, topknot. I didn’t even see you picked the exact same image of Kansas from Google search that I did. Google high five!
Halfway into this video my ADD took over and I Googled the band Kansas. Normally I wouldn’t waste your time and tell you about that but I found out one of the guys in the band wears an eye patch.
“We have a feeling we’re not in Kansas anymore.” —Robby Steinhardt, Dave Hope, Kerry Livgren, John Elefante, Steve Morse, Warren Ham, Emilio Gómez

I once had an extended conversation with a chronic schizophrenic poet on the Lower East Side about the value of eyepatches and its underappreciation among other famous inventions like the phonograph and moveable type.
I gotta say, my life’s been pretty rad.
I’ve got a protip for you: Never try and drive a car with an eye patch on because it’s fucking impossible. It takes your depth perception away. I had to drive home from the emergency room with an eye patch on one time and I was banging into curbs and swerving all over the place.
My life’s been pretty rad, too.
Hey you folks know why pirates are often depicted wearing eye-patches? Not just because plundering is a very dangerous way to spend time (Though it is, no doy), but because when a pirate would head below deck he or she would switch the eye-patch over the other eye so that they would more easily be able to see in the extremely dark cabin…. You know, because keeping one eye under a patch shielded from light makes it more primed to see in the dark because science. After polishing treasure or getting scurvy or whatever it is pirates do in the bowels of a dark, dank ship, they would slide the patch back over the other eye and proceed on-deck to take care of other pirate duties, like getting their ears pierced.
Also, peg legs were to help them walk.
I like your post, and you!
Thanx, I like your post too! And your name is intriguing… Why is the hand reaching? What for? To caress? To kill? For Fritos?
Hopefully, in 50 years or so, we will get a ‘I DRINK YOUR MILKSHAKE’ movie montage. Think of the possibilities….
Around the fifth minute, the word “Kansas” started to sound really fucking weird.
semantic satiation!
I wish my five-year-old self had been able to bust that term out on the playground when discussing how the quick repetition of our names made them not BE our names anymore. That would’ve been intense. Back to kickball!
Something once told me I wasn’t in Kansas anymore.
Spoiler alert: it was a map.
(I’m so sorry for that joke.)
Can I commission a “Get him on the table!” super cutup? Next Videogum Party Game: common dialogue cutup ideas!

Awesome. “Excuse me professor. This is Screenwriting 101, right?”
Or “I have a bad feeling about this”.

“Something tells me we’re not in northern Wisconsin anymore.” -Animaniacs
Definitely the best one
How can you tell?
Further proof that even tired old cliches like this are still funny when spoken by or in the vicinity of Ed O’Neill.

The Man With The Screaming Brain FTW!
As a resident of Kansas I would like to officially welcome you to my life.
I’ve never been to Kansas, so this video helped a lot.
Modern American Gothic = In Kansas
Future Dudes in a Gazebo = Not In Kansas
Little did they know, they actually were all in Kansas the whole damn time.
Was that Dollman?!!!
