“The problem, often not discovered until late in life, is that when you look for things in life like love, meaning, motivation, it implies they are sitting behind a tree or under a rock. The most successful people in life recognize, that in life they create their own love, they manufacture their own meaning, they generate their own motivation. For me, I am driven by two main philosophies, know more today about the world than I knew yesterday. And lessen the suffering of others. You’d be surprised how far that gets you.”
Just wiped an earwig off the counter and I don’t even give a fuck. Still gonna eat the hell out of some hashbrowns. #WaffleHouse #daylightsavings (Taken with instagram)
This is my favorite sketch of the season, and by far the one I spent the most time on in post-production, trying to get the timing of the edit and the music just right. One of the things I love about Keegan & Jordan is the way they heighten situations, and how they can take a simple joke to such ridiculous places in the writing, then have the acting chops to back it up. When I direct comedy I try to keep everything in a scene as grounded in an appropriate reality as possible, so the chance to make something so stupid be as self-important as this was, well, it’s the kind of thing I love making the most (see also Il Gatto). I know that because it’s a six minute sketch, it’s not exactly internet-friendly, but if you have a little free time, I’d love you to give it a watch, preferably in fullscreen and at a relatively loud volume.
My wife walked in for the last thirty seconds of this and it was STILL hilarious to her. That’s pretty impressive.
The cast of The Hunger Games is going on a mall tour (“those are still a thing?”, asked everyone who first heard of this who doesn’t regularly go on/to mall tours) and this is a pic of the attendees on one of the stops. That guy might be the father of one of the girls but my imagination tells me otherwise.
I’m dating a guy who refuses to give up on his dreams of rock stardom. While it’s admirable in a way, I need a little bit more stability if we’re going to make this work. How can I gently break this to him?
Don’t you dare say anything to him about giving up his dream. You’re not…
“I say to the grown-ups, if you want to deny evolution and live in your world that’s completely inconsistent with everything we observe in the universe, that’s fine, but don’t make your kids do it, because we need them.”
