...Cohen's character] Borat horrifying" [Nov. 6]. I disagree; I'm 37, and although I thought the film was as vulgar and far removed from political correctness as you can get, I was not horrified. It is a brilliant satirical look at global prejudice and without a doubt the funniest movie in years. You don't have to be under or over a certain age to know a sharp work of satire or pure comic genius when...

Even with extended skits and lots of filler, West's debut stands as the smartest, funniest and most important rap album of the new century. The pink-Polo-wearing son of an ex--Black Panther and a college English professor, West wasn't the first to bring a buppie sensibility to hip-hop, but he infused Jesus Walks, All Falls Down and Never Let Me Down (which featured a tremendous guest verse from his mentor and record-company president, Jay-Z) with wit, intelligence and, most of all, complexity...

Conflating the ultra-cutesy style of girl's shojo manga with outrageously repulsive gross-out humor, the three volumes so far ($13 each) may be the funniest books of the year, as well as the most disgusting. The first story of the first volume starts like a typical shojo book might, with a bunch of school girls tormenting their cute classmate Takako. But in this version, they jump on top her and make her lunch vegetables squirt out her nose...

...effect.Kevin Barlowski, a senior at Emerson, is one of these cast members. There is a big difference between telling a funny joke and being funny, being a source of humor rather than a conduit for it. As Richie, Barlowski’s humor came straight from the spleen (the funniest internal organ I can think of). As a result, “Hello Twelve, Hello Thirteen, Hello Love”—a strange song that is mostly about puberty (disclaimer: I have no idea what this song is actually about)—is the show?...
