Check out this Blur video, it’s so great. I saw this video on MTV at two in the morning when I was seventeen and I’ve been looking for it ever since.

Now-
Of the many divides you can place on people, the weak and the strong holds a solid place in my heart. It’s the place of shame and self-deprecation. I’ve always fallen on the weak side of the line. It’s not that I’m a pansy or anything, just that I never have been […]

Thing that recently dismayed me:
Chipotle Burritos (1228 calories in ONE VEGETARIAN BURRITO!! WHAT THE FUCK!?!?! You thought they were fresh and healthy too, didn’t you. They are also owned by McDonalds, sucka.)
Thing that inspired me:

Sometimes I feel like all I am is this food consuming thing that makes comedy, spouts back and forth with friends, and listens to music. Now for the music part!
Who has the balls to send their sophomore album out with the title Classics? Those evocative instrumental rockers with the hip-hop attitude […]

Hey, bros and shmoes.
You might not believe it, but we actually put a lot of work into our sketches, trying out different things and tweaking scenes in editing to get the desired effect. A stray music cue can completely derail a sketch and sometimes a sly cutaway turns trash into something-slightly-better-than-trash.

Wanna know why Train Spotting is revolutionary? Because as of this moment–at least according to Google (which I’m opting not to hyperlink)–no one else on the internet has said, “You’re standing on my wife’s head.”

The thing about making sketches about awkward situations is that typically you have to film them in even more awkward situations. Take “Urinal Change” for example. After sitting at the bar for about 45 minutes waiting (and drinking) for the owner to arrive so that we could ask him for permission to film […]
