Furnishing

I recently moved into a new apartment. I’m living in Brooklyn now with my friends Jeff and Julia. We moved out here about three weeks ago. Jeff and I are both coming from studio apartments and Julia is coming from a dorm, so we’re pretty short in the furniture department. Being in Brooklyn means we can afford more space, and right now the only thing occupying our kitchen/dining room/living room is a couch, a trunk and a stool.

I have been to tons of thrift stores around the city looking for chairs, tables, bookcases, coffee tables and TV stands with no luck. So this weekend when we went home for Father’s Day Jeff and I resolved to spend time finding furniture for our apartment. The vintage stores in Connecticut, we were sure, would prove to have a wider slection and hopefully be cheaper.

A lot of things happened in between then and now but I guess my point is that Jeff and I aren’t ready to be responsible for shit like this, as we are returning with a Ping Pong table, a basketball and a Vortex.

I’m equal parts proud and embarrassed to say that these things were not my first immature purchase of the week.

This is my dad. I always knew he was an awesome father, but going through old pictures this weekend I found out he was also cooler than me when he was young.
Fuck.

“Fast Car” by Tracy Chapman


This one goes out to Jeff and Jake. We played this around 45 times last night. There’s a positive correlation to how much we drank and how much we said “dude, this song is awesome. F*ucking amazing” while the three of us sat in a circle.

It was a pretty solid Friday night.

quoteOur substance, as human beings, operates from the inside out. It’s in the direct gaze, the kind word, the helping hand, and extends all the way to the weight we are willing to help carry.

My Mom.

I’ve said this before, but she’s way better at writing than I am.

F'ing Gale Beggy

Josh Ruben just made me laugh out loud for several straight minutes as I sat alone in my apartment. If you’re a Gale Beggy fan then you should really do yourself a favor and read this awesome interview she gave FYJoshRuben

If you’re not a Gale Beggy fan you should consider rewatching episode one and two.

You should also consider JUMPING OFF A DAMN CLIFF! No, no. I don’t want that. I just… Can’t you please just try watching the videos?

Finally, here’s the short I directed/co-wrote/co-produced for Campus Movie Fest. We took Best Comedy at the CMF Northern Regional Grand Finale and get to move on to LA in June for the Interntional Finale. This is the most fun I’ve ever had on a shoot, especially since we did it one week, from pre-production all the way through post. I hope you like it as much as I do.

SYNOPSIS:

George Walker, the founder of Safety Rape Inc., is a foolhardy but good-natured man who strives to keep his neighborhood safe. His unorthodox tactics often leave those he helps confused, and rightfully so. Regardless, George never stops believing in his ability to make the world a safer place. With George it’s safety first, rape second. Wait…that didn’t come out right.

I’m always posting about and plugging things me and my coworkers are doing here at CollegeHumor. This is a movie one of my good friends from back home made. I had nothing to do with it. I just think it’s awesome.

This is one of my favorite things to see at work. Every once in a while, a video playing on one person’s computer is interesting or funny enough to make everyone get out of their seats. I think the video everyone is watching here is this one.

The latest Hardly Working video is not so loosely based on something Patrick and I have actually done at a bar.

Not the kissing part. But the talking about it a lot.
