Late-Night TV Zinger Collection

By Queuebot in Everything Else on Feb 1, 2009 at 1:23 pm

Strange de Jim has been archiving zingers delivered by late night TV show hosts for a decade. It’s probably the most complete archive of such one-liners – from 1999 through this past Friday.

Here’s an example from this past week:

The Daily Show titled the Rod Blagojevich story “Scumdog Million-Hairs,” and a White House story “Big ‘Bama’s House.”

Dave Letterman: “This woman had eight babies. Of course, now she’s moving to a much bigger shoe.” “Benjamin Button starts out old and ends up as a baby who’s adopted by Angelina Jolie.”

Jay Leno: “It’s Chinese New Year. Their resolution is to get the lead out.”

Jimmy Kimmel: “It’s Oprah’s birthday, and I feel sorry for Steadman. What do you give a woman who has her own President? You can’t just give her a mix tape.”

Conan O’Brien: “Viagra profits are down 90%. The president of the company said, ‘Honest, this has never happened before.

    Interesting, but I was hoping this was a collection of how each show covered specific current events.
