Big news. Our Ace and Jocelyn poster is almost available for sale on BustedPosters.com! If you’re a true fan you’ll strip your walls completely now and then buy enough to posters to make wallpaper out of them.
PS- I don’t have to explain why I’m wearing this costume right?
Last week my co-worker Jake and I made a bet. If this stupid video of Hugh Jackman on an insane Japanese game show got 50 likes within 24 hours, I’d have to spend this week wearing a superhero costume at work. It didn’t. Now Jake will be spending the week dressed as The Flash. I’m documenting it on Flickr. Be sure to check out Jake Hurwitz: the Fastest Man Alive.
It took us a while to agree on the stakes. Most of that time was spent arguing over what “shave your head” meant, specifically. I’m happy with the outcome. He also bet me the Hugh Jackman video would do better than Manatee Face Smoosh. He owes me a steak for that poor decision.
My one regret about this whole thing is that I allowed Pat (who we asked to title and caption the video given me and Kevin’s obvious bias) to call the video “Hugh Jackman on Insane Japanese Game Show.” I didn’t think about it enough. If I had, I would have remembered that Japanese Game Show videos haven’t done as well lately. And less clicks means less “likes”.
If I could do it all over I’d have tried to get him to title it more along the lines of “Hugh Jackman Has Seizure.”
And I wouldn’t have bet anything against that adorable manatee.
This picture captures one of my favorite moments from the last CH Live Show. Video hopefully coming soon for those of you who couldn’t make it. And to tide you over until then, a chill dude named John has a fun set on flickr.*
*I might just think it’s fun because I’m in a lot of the pictures.
When you spend almost $200 importing Japanese Pikachu pajamas, you have to use them as often as possible.
You are now looking at one of my favorite pictures ever. Jeff Rubin, you are a legit king.
Amir and I got to interview The Lonely Island this past week. It was incredibly intimidating since, similar to Amir, I have been a fan for a very long time. In fact, I was an avid Lonely Island visitor before I ever was a regular to CollegeHumor.
One cool behind the scenes thing that will give you an idea of how nice and down to earth Jorma, Akiva and Andy are is this: When we got to the interview room the lights were incredibly dim and shooting was going to be next to impossible. As we were standing around trying to figure out a way to brighten the room the guys got up themselves and found a way to angle the ceiling lights towards their seats to brighten the shot. The cameras weren’t rolling, It was something they totally didn’t have to do.
I don’t usually ask, but this would be especially cool for both me and Amir if you’d digg it.
Old school Jake and Amir fans might appreciate tonight’s episode of “The CollegeHumor Show” a little more than others. Tonight at 9:30/8:30c on MTV.
Afterparty at Jake’s. Nope. After Jake’s party is the hotel lobby. It’s not.
It was weird and awesome reshooting something over the span of a few days, with lights, makeup and a crew that originally took 30 minutes with a Canon Powershot. Don’t miss it!
ALSO. Just to reiterate, no party at my place.
This is great. Considering one of my other favorite online videos is that acoustic Hey Ya cover, I’d say there’s a definite trend.
More heartfelt renditions of rap songs please.
The Daily Fight:
Me vs. Jake
This happened last week. For some reason around 5:30, people just started wrestling. We’d crowd around and shout out random people’s names until they’d fight. I never knew how awesome it felt to just straight up wrestle someone. This is how everyone should end their work day. I should point out, I feel that Vinnie deliberately edited this together to give him the upper hand in the final frame in a futile attempt to look like the winner.
If you want a real treat though, check out Trawin’s picture from Jack Zerby and Jordan’s fight. (Zerby is an actual cage fighter and Jordan is maybe the strongest man I know.) A tip: Blow it up to original size and look at everyone’s faces. Pure Joy. Except on Jordan.)
Update: J-Mo is responsible for the brawl.
Wow. Amir, Jeff, where the FUCK was I for this? Please Digg and reblog.
Sorry, Cassels, but you deserve this.
You do.
