the most expensive words to come out of Washington since 'Mission Accomplished' (100 days to pretend you understand curling)


The Winter Olympics are just 100 days away! That means you have just 100 days to pretend you understand curling. –Jimmy Fallon


"Hey, the health care bill was introduced yesterday. It's 1,990 pages long and costs $894 billion dollars. Or $2.2 million per word. That makes them the most expensive words to come out of Washington since 'Mission Accomplished.'" --Jimmy Fallon

A tech blogger in California used a weather balloon to drop an iPhone from the edge of space, at 100,000 feet in the air, to see what would happen — and still, somehow the phone landed in the guy’s toilet. –Jimmy Fallon

A new poll finds that Donald Trump and Hillary Clinton are in a statistical tie just a week from Election Day. But on the bright side, at least Trump’s finally in a tie that was made in America. –Jimmy Fallon

Should students learn why he wasn't allowed to play? (the aircraft carrier the U.S.S. Metaphor)

January 2014

we’ve still got a functioning Department of Homeland Insecurity (the world’s tallest moose statue)


It has been reported that President Trump posts altered photos to Facebook and Instagram that make him look thinner. Well, it’s nice to know that even during the shutdown, we’ve still got a functioning Department of Homeland Insecurity. --Stephen Colbert

Meanwhile, Norway and Canada are fighting over who has the tallest moose statue. Yeah, they’ve been feuding ever since Norway crushed Canada in Olympic curling. It was brutal. Tens of people were bored. For 35 years, the world’s tallest moose statue has been in the world’s most Canadian-named city, Moose Jaw. Moose Jaw, of course, just north of the town of Beaver Scrotum. --Stephen Colbert

or one for each person who lives in Norway (the “reverse Ikea”)


The big winner this year is Norway. They won a record 39 medals, wow — or one for each person who lives in Norway. --Jimmy Fallon

The U.S. men’s curling team beat Sweden to win their first gold medal ever! Actually, they were beating Sweden so bad, they conceded the match early. Yep, America made Sweden quit in frustration, or as we call that, the “reverse Ikea.” --Jimmy Fallon

I’ve been a proud card-carrying douche since 1987 (curling, pt. 3)



The International Olympic Committee just announced that it has banned Russia from competing in the 2018 Winter Olympics because of doping violations. Or, as Putin put it, "Hello, Donald? Is time to return a favor." –Jimmy Fallon

Russia was banned from the Olympics. But Russia doesn’t mind — they said they’ll just invade some other teams. –Jimmy Fallon

It’s very interesting — athletes from Russia can still participate, but they won’t get credit for winning any medals. Yeah, Olympic events that don’t matter — or as most people call it, “curling.” –Jimmy Fallon

Robert Mueller issued a subpoena to Deutsche Bank for documents on its relationship with President Trump. Trump couldn't believe it – he said, "I thought it was pronounced 'Douche Bank.' It was funny – that's why I joined! I’ve been a proud card-carrying douche since 1987.” –Jimmy Fallon

The Winter Olympics are just 100 days away! That means you have just 100 days to pretend you understand curling. –Jimmy Fallon
