In today's fast-paced stressful world of depressing news headlines meant to elicit dread in all but the most apathetic reader, sometimes we have to appreciate when a headline can just make you laugh at the misfortune of others.

The Lost Yahoo Rewrites (PDF)

Whenever I write a lesson, I like to take it to my study with a glass of something strong and proceed to demolish it, angrily crossing out entire pages and filling the margins with chicken scratch. For this lesson, I ended up draining an entire bottle plus several pens. The end result I hope was a fitting goodbye to a website...

Internet Comment Etiquette: "The Last Yahoo Answer"

This lesson had more rewrites than the bible. Maybe it was just me having a hard time saying goodbye to one of the last great websites. There really is no perfect way to encapsulate what this place was like to visit, so I decided to make it a personal journey for closure. And now we can let Yahoo Answers rest.

Internet Comment Etiquette: "It's So Hard to Be Nice"

In today's lesson, not a single window survives when Erik does the unthinkable on Twitter. Also don't worry about that Narfi scene. I was actually behind the camera telling her she's a good girl and promising her cheese the whole time. Anybody want the index card from the end of the lesson?

Internet Comment Etiquette: "Get a Vaccine"

This one was entirely worth it for the students in the comments telling me I sold out to big pharma. Uhhhhh yeah of COURSE I sold out to big pharma??? Who else is going to get me a new liver in ten years? Anyway get vaccinated.

Internet Comment Etiquette: "Algorithms"

Before sitting down to plan this lesson, I didn't fully understand just how much algorithms play into our daily lives. I still don't, but at least I've found my new favorite minecraft porn.

We have fire to thank for nearly everything we take for granted in our lives. But what happens when we take this glorious discovery and use it for our own twisted amusement? Well what happens is you set grandma on fire you stupid idiot. Buy a fire extinguisher!

Internet Comment Civil War Etiquette

Internet Comment Etiquette: "Refusing to Laugh"

Today's lesson comes as Teacher Erik searches for the cure to his inability to laugh. What will it take to finally break him? Guess we'll just have to watch a bunch of fart videos and maybe have an existential crisis to find out.

Internet Comment Etiquette: "I Hate The Postal Service"

In today's lesson, we learn that Erik might not be entirely up to date on what's going on in the world. Other than that though, he clearly has wonderful taste in music and knows exactly how to properly articulate his needs in comment etiquette form -- and may Christ have mercy on anyone who disagrees.

Internet Comment Etiquette: "The Passion of the Karen"

In today's lesson, we explore what makes a Karen. Is she a conglomeration of horrible attributes that we've identified in humankind? Is she forgivable? Is Karen a slur? I don't know, and that's why this is such an important lesson. Hopefully by the end of this we all have enough knowledge of the Karen to fight her in The Witc...

Internet Comment Etiquette: "Masks are for Losers"

Yo brah I'm not gonna lie, I dunno why all these bitches are complaining about masks and shit.

Internet Comment Etiquette: "The Clorox Plan"

It's pretty rare that I have a lesson with loads of outtakes, but this one is absolutely un-stuffed with them. My original cut was 20 minutes and I think this is like 15 or so. I'll find a funny way to mash them all together so that they don't drag themselves down the way they did my lesson.

Internet Comment Etiquette: "The Revenge of 5G"

In today's lesson I finally post something that I feel bad about! Well not really, but it's important to seem like you feel bad about these kinds of things while secretly feeling proud.

Hey students, so this wasn't a full lesson until I finished both parts of the epic saga. What a goddamn month it's been! I have a lot planned for April so long as I don't run out of boxed wine and tuna cans. Be well students, I love you all, and don't touch your face.
