Whitest Kids U Know

As you may or may not have figured out already, I'm a very big fan/supporter of improv comedy and underground sketch comedy troupes. I previously wrote a blog about Derrick Comedy and mentioned a group in relation to them called "Whitest Kids U Know" (WKUK) and figured tell you more about them. I came across them many years ago when I saw an ad about them in the Village Voice. Curious what they were about, I checked them out on the internet a low and behold I found myself lying on the floor with tears in my eyes laughing at how ridiculous and hilarious these five guys were. In their videos, they come across with a demeanor that seems like they're trying to say, "Hey! We're not doing anything ridiculous! We're taking ourselves very seriously!" which adds to the hilarity of the out-there humor they have. For example, one of my favorites is "Timmy Poops His Pants" which is simply about a man by the name of (you guessed it) Timmy that while at work (you guessed it again) poops his pants. Though that may or may not seem funny by itself, the rest of the sketch unfolds into a bizarre analysis of what to do with the situation. With their own successful TV show right now, they've been on Fuse for season one, IFC uncensored for season two and are in the midst of their third season on the same network. If you search around on YouTube or IFC, you're bound to find tons of clips, sketches or full episodes of this NY fivesome. They even came out with an audio album a few years ago which without anything to watch, is surprisingly hilarious when you use your imagination to paint the disturbing/bizarre picture that isn't there. I'd love to tell you more about how the third season is going, but unfortunately for where I am, I don't have access to IFC so let me know what you guys think of it so far. I'll post a few videos below and some links to where you can find out more about them.

24 Japanese Theme Song

During the winter break, I went with my friends Matt L and Matt F to Upright Citizens Brigade Theater in New York City to see internet celebs Derrick Comedy. I'll write my next blog on them so you have a better understanding. One of the things they talked about was how they all went to Japan to film part of their movie "Mystery Team". One of the things they mentioned was how the show "24" has a different theme song in Japan than it does in American. In America, it's just a ticking noise with Jack Bauer saying "This is between the hours of 7 and 8 pm" or something along those lines. In Japan however, has it's own theme song with and 80's guitar solo in the middle and everything! When they showed it to us, the audience was dying and it became and inside joke for the rest of the night. Sure enough, when I got home, Matt L left me a link to the song on my facebook. After watching it, I figured nobody else had seen it so I posted it on Collegehumor.com . Now, I've uploaded tons of stuff to the site, but nothing ever becomes national, so I didn't think twice about it. Sure enough, it becomes national and College Humor offers me one free shirt from Bustedtees.com ! Right now I'm thinking of getting the Skeeter Valentine Lightening Bolt shirt, but time will tell what I choose. I have the video at the bottom is you guys wanna check it out. It's not the funniest thing in the universe, but it will definitely get stuck in your head!
