Picking Johnny's funniest posts is akin to picking who was "cooler" Zach or AC Slater. It's an impossible feat, and one that I took on with severe reservation. Johnny has an ability to find the absurd and strange in anything, as well as point us in a better direction with his solid moral compass. He's clever, hysterical, and missed. Once he gets back from rescuing jaguars in El Salvador, I'm sure we'll be treated to his classic articles once again. As I did with my list yesterday, I'm offering a "director's commentary" about each post, even though I didn't write them and had nothing to do with their content.
Ten Films That Should Be Broadway Musicals - What really did it for me on this article was that Johnny went so far as to imagine the actual songs that would be sung in these performances. And of all those he mentioned, I think Rocky IV would make the best transition to the stage.
Cast Into the Pit of Hades - Johnny loves being a curmudgeon. He thrives on ranting about things in life we can do without. So he hit his stride when creating his Pit of Hades series. For more check out his second entry*.
Top 10 Most Stupid Tattoos - Not only was this just a genius post, but it got picked up by several other sites and earned Johnny quite a bit of hits.
Sex and the City is a Movie? No Thank You - Some people had widgets on the desktops counting down the days until the Sex and the City movie opened. Johnny had the same widget, only he labeled it "Days Until the World Falls Off its Axis".
A Letter to My Friend Hollywood - A former resident of Hollywood, Johnny had every right to send this letter. And as much as I hate to admit it, he was correct on every point.
Monkey Taunts Tigers - This may fall under the "interesting" umbrella rather than the "funny" but this is my small shout out to Johnny, a man who loves monkeys more than anything else on this planet.
*I just realized the term "second entry" sounds vaguely sexual, and were Johnny to read that he'd roll his eyes and ask what I was thinking.

Echo, a difficult job to do....but you know that Johnny would tell you that you were a bigger fan of Screech.
Although I see you as the bigger fan of Zach...because he did the look straight at the camera and talk thing--reminiscent of your YouTube lip synch vid...(not to mention the raised eyebrow)
Sarcky,
Please don't mention the raised eyebrow.
Sincerely,
The Heterosexual Male
Tim, is that a picture of you in your teenager days dressing a Halloween costume? The Mecha-Monkey-Pirate from the 5th dimension?
For the record it's "Zack" and he was the coolest.
I think Tim is coolest that "Zack".
Leo,
That's a pic from the reading I did for a part in the movie "Wild Wild West". I was trying out for the part of Dr. Loveless.
They said I wasn't believable in that role, and sent me over to the set of BJ and the Bear.
There was nobody there.
I was so mad that I went back to the set and kicked Will Smith in the futures. He just laughed at me. So, I went to Salma Hayek's trailer for a quickie.
As I was leaving, Will Smith asked me what I was doing in her trailer. I just laughed at him.
Good times.
Tim? Zack? huh?
I can see Will Smith puzzled, thinking what the hell was a monkey doing with that hotness!
Way to go Tim! Since I read that you came back from a trip to Africa inside a girl's blouse, I just can take my hat off for you, you little Casanova Monkey...
