WatchFor all you musical theatre nerds out there:

Web Site Story, CollegeHumor’s Internet musical. This is a serious, serious doozy. Written and directed by Sam Reich, produced by CH Originals (I’m just getting the Tumblr train going). We’re all really excited about it. If you are too, you can Digg it.
The Man Who Shouted At Me From Inside the TV
Billy Mays, the well-known and energetic product salesman on TV infomercials and co-host of the series Pitchmen on Discovery Channel, was found dead early yesterday at his home in Tampa, FL. He was 50. Referred to as “king of the infomercial,” Mays began selling products on the boardwalk in Atlantic City then traveled the country working at garden and home shows and other sales...
Interesting
“The sixth sick sheik’s sixth sheep’s sick” is reportedly the hardest tongue twister in English.
WatchSanderson! Gale Beggy replaces Justin Long in a new iphone commercial.
WatchTaylor Hanson, of “Mmm Bop” fame, has a new band. They are not terrible. They are called Tinted Windows and aside from a Hanson brother, they are: James Iha (Smashing Pumpkins), Adam Schlesinger (Fountains of Wayne) and Bun E. Carlos (Cheap Trick). So fucking random, but again, not terrible. This is “Messing With My Head”
Not bad.
Love Tarot
The Queen of Chalices card suggests that you may be influenced by the approachable, empathetic devotion of this domestic goddess. Her example can show you how to demonstrate self-control when there are disturbances within your love life or relationships. Tap into her nurturing, instinctive power for unconditional love to deal with your own secret vulnerabilities. Be willing to tend to the...
WatchThere are so many wonderful reasons why I love this video. Thomas Middleditch in little boys’ underpants is high on that list.
WatchAl Roker gives it to Heidi and Spencer. I hate these two idiots.
No it's true. Your baby IS an asshole. →
I might not have a tolerance for other people’s kids, but I keep telling myself it’ll be different when those kids are my own. Let’s hope.
WatchEntourage is such a stupid show. I’ve been trying to tell people this for years. This is such sweet validation for me!
And besides, so many people I love worked on this video!
Step Two: Joining A Group For my 'The Wire'... →
It’s comforting to know that other people are as addicted to this show as I am.
WatchZach Galifianakis discusses his “craft” with Justin Bartha. Amazingly weird, as usual.
This is awesome.
Comedy Central is breathing new life into the animated series Futurama, ordering 26 new episodes from 20th Century Fox TV. Comedy Central will re-launch the series the middle of next year, confirming the three lead actors have all signed on to return: Billy West as Philip Fry; Katey Sagal as Leela; and John DiMaggio as Bender.

So proud of my old boss and co-workers!
WatchI am seriously digging this song. “Knock You Down” by Keri Hilson ft. Kanye and Ne-Yo. Awesome.
Sperm Facial
I can think of a MUCH cheaper way to make this happen:
The latest craze in anti-aging treatments is a sperm-based facial. Called the Spermine Facial, it consists of slathering synthesized human sperm on your face and then running an ultrasound and infared light over the substance to help it, ahem, penetrate deeper. Townhouse Spa is currently offering this service for $250. Apparently studies...
Quentin on Inglourious Basterds
‘‘Inglourious Basterds’’ is a World War II epic that combines historical events with a vivid, pop sensibility. The movie stars, among others, Brad Pitt as an American lieutenant in search of Nazis and Diane Kruger as a German movie star/spy. It’s both authentic and highly theatrical. Did you shoot on soundstages in America or in Europe?
We shot the film in Berlin and a little bit in Paris. I only...
Received in an email from my mom
‘May today there be peace within. May you trust that you are exactly where you are meant to be. May you not forget the infinite possibilities that are born of faith in yourself and others. May you use the gifts that you have received, and pass on the love that has been given to you. May you be content with yourself just the way you are. Let this knowledge settle into your bones, and allow...
WatchAnother amazing phone sex prank from Gil Ozeri. I hope your clit doesn’t look like a soggy microchip.

“Pedobear Doubt Trailer,” a tribute to one of the internet’s greatest memes. Embarrassingly written by me, wonderfully directed by Josh, slyly animated by Mike Parker. Digg it.
I directed this bad boy and voice Pedobear as Philip Seymour Hoffman. Produced by Ben, shot beautifully by Vince. Enjoy, you creep!
Everything that Sam and Josh said is true BUT this also stars...
I produced these!

Kiss the Girl… Continued, a new song parody I wrote, directed by Josh Ruben, and featuring PUPPETS! (and the hilarious Nick Kocher.) (And PUPPETS!). I’m really excited about this one. For those of you that hate puppets and good singing, later this week, we’ll post a video of me singing it at UCB. Anyway, please Digg it if you like it.
Puppets caught in crude acts. Hilarious.
