In the summer of 2002, writer and founder Richard Pruitt was writing entertainment for his high school newspaper. The monthly article was called The Entertainment Buzz. In December, a year end review was typed up. It was called the The Entertainment Buzz Kill. This was the start of the site that you see today, In 2005, The Buzz Kill was introduced to the world via the free yahoo web page. It was the debut of the some of the things Richard had done on the internet besides his stand up. The page didn't last long as it was geared to his old home town. In 2006, The Buzz Kill moved to the then popular Myspace. Humor blogs and a lot of advertising was the only thing that was truly done there. The Myspace site died a few months later but Richard knew it was the beginning of something special.
