Oh wow, has it been Bowie all day? I'm on "Slow Burn" right now.

A great song and the name of my college band which existed before it did.

What if we dont give a rats ass about Bowie?

Then your life is empty.

Who is David Bowie?

He was the Nazz. With God-given ass.  He took it all to far, but boy could he play guitar.

Can you hear me Major Tom?

No. There’s something wrong.

What was David Bowie's penultimate meal?

Did he die?

Which Bowie record do you listen to cover to cover without skipping any songs?

Most of them.  Four favs are Hunky Dory, Ziggy Stardust, Heroes and Scary Monsters.

Hey, Gladstone, you certainly have a sharp sense of humor. I love the things you write for Cracked. Well, what are your influences? Is there any specific comedians or writers?

I like many writers, but its hard to know if they are influences. Same with comics. I mean, I love Louis CK, but he’s not an influence. I was who I was by the time I got into him.  I feel like most influences you have to acquire very young.  Monty Python, Cleese particularly, Woody Allen, Neil Simon are all in there somewhere.  George Carlin.  Huge Jon Stewart and Stephen Colbert fan, but again, I think I was already formed by then.  Kafka is an tiny influence too, I guess.

I loved the first couple of editions of Notes from the Internet Apocalypse, but as soon as you said you were making a book out of it I stopped reading, to keep more of the book a mystery. I plan to buy it when it's released,so it's a win for you I guess. Got any idea when that might be?

Well, it’s true that if you read it all, you will learn stuff that won’t be a surprise in the book.  Having said that.  The novel is more than twice as long as whats been on cracked. I have fully expanded it. I have a couple of interested agents and I’m currently rewriting it. I hope very much that 2012 sees its publication.

Joe Paterno Near Death

Although US Weekly reports Joe Paterno is “near death” I’m not concerned; he’s been near far worse things without being affected at all.

Why can't I send you fan mail? This is unacceptable.

I think you can?

Why... wha- HOW do you answer everything with such.. happiness and cleverness? Oh you amazing man.

Ask DOB and he’ll tell you: it’s because I’m the real Spider-Man.

Now that Anonymous are following you and sharing your articles are you worried about what you say? (I'm nothing to do with them but am curious) Also I love you articles,all top notch!

Anonymous as in 4Chan Anonymous?  I wasn’t aware… unless you’re referring to Tumblr where it says “anonymous asked….” which is just how tumblr refers to people who ask questions anonymously…

Are you married? If not... will you marry me?

Yes to both. Oh wait. Just the former.

Kelly Clarkson Supports Ron Paul

Here are 5 tweets I left in the span of about 90 seconds upon hearing that Kelly Clarkson supports Ron Paul for President:

Kelly Clarkson supports Ron Paul? Hmm, I want her on our side for the upcoming race war. (She has strong legs!)

Kelly Clarkson wants Ron Paul to run America. The same women who thought Clive Davis didn’t know how to run a record label.

Kelly Clarkson’s support for Ron Paul is much like Ron Paul himself: strange and inconsequential.

Kelly Clarkson supports Ron Paul. Asked for comment Simon Cowell said, “I’m a ginormous douchebag with man breasts.”

Kelly Clarkson supports Ron Paul. Or as history from five years from now will record it: “Who supports who?”

Dear Gladstone, I think you are a marvelous human being, and I wish I was half as entertaining as you, this isn't a question but you can respond with an answer if you feel you must...

Yes!

I get a lot of criticism for believing in a god--and if that isn't enough, I'm Wiccan now (which is even less understood than the other religions.) Anyway, I see it as this: arguing about religion is like arguing about who's imaginary friends are more fun. Just stfu up and let me play with my imaginary friends the way I want--you don't have to acknowledge 'em. - Allec

Misunderstood? I’m under the impression Wiccans believe in sex magic. Regardless of the accuracy of that, I’m not going to stop believing that, OK?  And thank you.
