— my sister, to my other sister, about me
Tonight is the series premiere of The College Humor Show on MTV.
Through my friendship with CV partner Zach Klein, I’ve met Ricky Van Veen and have been following all the cast members’ Tumblrs for awhile now. Because of that, they all feel like friends, even though Ricky is the only one I’ve ever actually spoken to, and that was way back in 2005 — years before started they shooting the top-notch videos that would eventually cause MTV to come calling. 
Earlier today, while talking to someone about the show, I found myself struggling to explain the connection I felt to it. It wouldn’t be fair to characterize the stars of the show as friends of mine, but they aren’t exactly strangers, either.
“It’s sort of like I’m a freshman in high school,” I said, “and they’re all seniors. I see them every day, I know who they are, but if you asked any of them about me, they’d have no idea who you were talking about.”
So here’s to you, seniors. Thanks for proving that Hardly Working sometimes does pay off.

Does the recession mean I can’t hate my job?
Every once in awhile I’ll end up perusing a Facebook photo gallery of a friend of a friend and stumble upon a surprise like this — Carson Daly at Jimmy Kimmel’s little brother’s wedding in 2006.
Wow.

  • David Letterman: Why exactly are you here? Honest to God…

It just goes to show you can still act even if you can’t move your face.

Am I the only one who thinks no one under 40 is going to care about this?
