Matthew Fugere: Ex-Garbage Baby
It’s a big deal for people to have an understanding of their roots, from where they began. Sometimes it’s about where your ancestors settled, eventually leading all the way up to you. Other times it’s just about how your family started, perhaps how your parents met: the moments that directly led to your birth. For me, though, it’s always been about being thrown into the garbage.
That’s the...

It's Raining Outside, So Here Are Some Jokes
I was sick today. It’s also been raining. So I wrote some jokes for you guys. I hope you enjoy them. If you don’t, that’s okay. But you should.

Lions And Sloths And Linguistic Associations! Oh...
We human folk often try to find our understanding of attributes and traits in nature. If we have the concept of strength in our word-bank, we look into the natural world to find a example of it (for quite some time I believe the ox has been associated to strength, a branding that certainly begs for a modern update).
People do this with just about every descriptor available. It’s not just enough to...

Who Or That
My understanding of the difference between who and that has always been wrapped around the idea as to whether something is human. So Matt is a who while table is a that. It’s an easy way to make your everyday speech sound credible, but I think there’s a strange sense of entitlement that comes with people and who.
Sure, we can say all things that are people get to be whos, but at what point can we...

Smelly Smells
Though I certainly adore each of my media to the physical world, my sense of smell is one with which I have a complimented relationship. I like whiff things that I know for fact are foul to smell. I can’t help it; I like smelly smells. And I really do enjoy these smells. I pursue them, searching the perfect places to find these smelly smells all around my world.
I stick my head in between couch...

Sound Advice 43: Late Night With The Fugere... →
On this episode of Sound Advice, I prove that my brother, Mike Fugere, is a terrible host by making him read my jokes. Also, another Video Game Madness in which video games are discussed with absolutely no knowledge or authority.
The link in the title will take you to the newest episode of Sound Advice. That link will work, too. So will the following:

How Do You Guys Feel About Your Bodies This Time?
Because they’re actually quite brilliant. Some people are going to convince you that your body is a disgusting, smelly chunk of decaying flesh and your job as a human is to deal with it until your inevitable death. It’s a lovely incentive for existing, but it isn’t quite true when you really consider what your body does.
Sure, on a large enough time-scale, it’s a decaying chunk of blood and...

You might remember a few days ago that I wrote some jokes for you guys. If you don’t remember, that’s fine… Though I am a bit disappointed in you and our friendship might be permanently scarred. We’ll get over that roadblock. Eventually. Here are some jokes for now.

I Hope This Is Empowering For Women →
That link in the title there should bring you to a .PDF of a sketch I wrote about a guy who likes seahorses. If you like my seahorse humor, you should really seriously take the time to read this link as well. I promise I’ll knock it off with the seahorse jokes once you’ve read this stuff.

I Wrote Some Jokes For You Guys
Conan was running reruns this week, so I didn’t get my fill of monologue-like setup-to-punchline jokes based off current events (I could have easily just watched one of the many other late-night shows, but then I don’t get to see my favorite lanky ginger dance around on television). As such, I decided just to write a few of my own. I’m no professional, so don’t expect...

Early Adopter
Sometimes when you buy a new piece of technology, you get the opportunity to be an early adopter. Like when people were first playing with iPhones and iPads, they were probably super psyched to show off their new chunk of metal and plastic, demonstrating all the amazing wurring sounds it could make that their friends were too poor to understand. It can backfire though, being an early adopter. Like...
