The first ten years of the 2000s were a decade that most of us wish we could forget for many different reasons. The fashion is one that we hope will never come back into style. The music industry launched a variety of solo careers, which meant band breakups. No Doubt became Gwen Stafani, *NSYNC became Justin Timberlake, Destiny's Child became Beyonce, and my heart became broken. Television wise, Jamie Lynn Spears got knocked up and ended Zoey 101 for all of us. All of these tragic events are worth forgetting but there are 9 comedies from the first decade that are worth remembering. So whether you've never seen them before or want to laugh-out-loud again, here is your next rainy day movie lineup!

What's up Asshat,

I've composed a list of things that I wish upon you, and they're harsh and cruel. These things are things that I wouldn't wish upon my worst of enemies, not even that Starbuck's barista who always screws up my order, not even him. You fall into a whole other category of hate.

What are these things I wish upon you you might ask?
