I’ve put up a video from “Tales of Mere Existence” before because I found it short, entertaining, and very true to life. In that video, he talked about a typical conversation with his mother.
In this sketch, he’s back again talking about the girlfriend he’s not going to think about.
I found this video while YouTube surfing and I fell in love with it.
Perhaps it’s because the simple drawing animation works well for the piece. Perhaps it’s because it’s funny. Perhaps it’s because it’s one of those tales that you can’t make up. You can exaggerate it a bit, but you have to have been through the original experience.
All of the above.
If you’ve ever thought you mother was annoying, doesn’t listen to you, and/or doesn’t trust you to take care of yourself even though you are an adult, you’ll like this short animation. It’s funny in a dry, sarcastic sort of way while also leaving us shaking our heads throughout because if the mother portrayed here isn’t your mother, than she’s the mother of someone you know.
I don’t know about you, but I spent many Saturday nights staying up to watch Saturday Night Live. I fondly recall the days of Chris Farley, Will Farrel, Adam Sandler, Christopher Walken, and more.
One of my favorite sketches, and one my brother and I watched over and over when we were young, was the Zagats sketches with Chris Farley and Adam Sandler. The beauty of these sketches is not only was the content humorous, but Farley and Sandler (moreso Sandler) had a hard time staying in character and not laughing.
Pay attention to Sandler’s face and you’ll know what I mean… (more…)
While I’ve thankfully yet to see anyone dress up as Borat, I’ve seen loads of people doing impressions, and really crappy versions of his voice, even though the film has been and gone ages ago. (more…)
This is from 1999 but that doesn’t make it any less funny. Obviously a version of Gloria Gaynor’s camp disco classic ‘I Will Survive’, this looks good, and has the sort of comedy payoff a lot of sitcom writers would do well to pay attention to. ;)
After seeing Ricky Gervais’ skit on Comic Relief last week I was encouraged to search for some older clips of the great man and here is the classic! This dance came from Series 2, Episode 5 of the original British version of The Office and see David Brent (Gervais smarmy character) trying to impress his colleagues and co-workers by dancing for charity. (more…)
This is a clip I had recommended to me and I sat there watching it in disbelief. It looks like (and I mean that in the loosest sense) a Japanese game show where supposed lookalikes go up against each other, and the most convincing goes through as a winner. (more…)
Lmao, I love this video, it’s obviously Darth Vader on a more mild mannered day when he’s in the mood for a bit of a joke. Old Lord Vader couldn’t resist joking with his second in command by shutting the capsule every time he opens his mouth. (more…)
I love this video, it’s funny but oh so true. While I won’t admit to doing all of the things the guy does, I do probably do half of them… and admit it, you do too. (more…)
The Brothers McLeod Present ‘A History Of Rock’. This is a great comedy short and some excellent animation. The Brothers McLeod are British pair Greg and Myles and they have 20 animations on YouTube so far. I’m loving their work! (more…)
