The Second Civil War
Why I love it:
What is it the right and left are arguing about when you get down to it? This video does a funny job of breaking dat shit down.

Late Line Special Report - Snuggies:...
Why I love it:
There's a silent killer out there and it's warm and cozy.
|
My picks from the week of April 19
 |
Disturbing Strokes
Why I love it:
The opening of the show became a scene out of the Omen. Where is that music from? More of these please.
|
My picks from the week of April 12
 |
Cat Found Prank
Why I love it:
Everytime I see the flier it makes me laugh. "Not house broken" One of the funnier pranks I've seen.
|
My picks from the week of March 29
 |
Black Friend Finder
Why I love it:
Very funny and true and thusly a bit sad. Love June saying she knows someone who's missing an arm.
|
My picks from the week of March 22
 |
Jersey Girl Still Asks What the F*ck?
Why I love it:
I love this series. I'm from Philly so Jersey humor gets it done for me.
|
My picks from the week of March 08
 |
BAT FIGHT with Will Ferrell
Why I love it:
Remember the days when disagreements were solved in a civilized manner? This isn't from those days.
|
My picks from the week of February 15
My picks from the week of January 11
 |
JUSTIN LONG in Hunger Relief
Why I love it:
We shot this and Lena Headey's (and one more to come) all in one day and all three actors improv'd the hell out of them.

Lena Headey Wants to Make a Donation
Mercy Corp accepts almost all donations. Except old people or dead people. views: 52,052 |
My picks from the week of November 30
 |
Terrible Hilarious Accidents
Why I love it:
Will someone please edit out the pause moments where it goes black and white and the kid getting backed into? With those two elements out this might be the funniest video ever.
|
My picks from the week of October 19
 |
McDonald's Free Menu
Why I love it:
This made me laugh out loud. Also a nice jab at fast food restaurants targeting the poor.
|
My picks from the week of September 28
 |
T-PAIN v. His Vocoder
Why I love it:
I can't wait to hear Vocoder's solo album. All I know is it'll be in pitch and sound like a half robot half man monster is singing. In other words, turn up the bass!
|
My picks from the week of September 14
 |
Mustache Police
Why I love it:
Love this one. Insane, funny and original. I think it's one of the best FOD team has done. I've always found the phrase "check it out!" to be fake casual and condescending but I like this piece so much: check it out gang!
|
My picks from the week of September 07
 |
Movie Poster Floating Heads
Why I love it:
Brian Huskey kills me. This is a vid that only hardcore film geeks will like. Love when he talks about the big head of the bad guy over the small good guy he is pursuing.
|
My picks from the week of August 24
 |
Teen Wolf
Why I love it:
I'm amazed at how good this looks. And very funny. Please do a bunch of these. Can I suggest The Kite Runner or No Reservations?
|
My picks from the week of August 03
 |
Euro Soccer!
Why I love it:
Yet another one from Almost Twins. Watch it ten times before you judge and then watch it twenty more times and notice how the next hundred views just shoot by.
|
My picks from the week of July 13

 |
Step Brothers Red Band Trailer
Why I love it:
This might be the funniest Ferrell and Reilly have ever been. I'm obviously as biased as they come but still....
|
My picks from the week of May 18
 |
Talladega Nights: Never before seen...
This clip was not in theaters and NOT on the DVD, it's Will Ferrell, John C. Reilly and Chris Isaak sing a song about the thing we... more >

 |
The Problem With Roommates Is...Ep 2
Why I love it:
This completely fooled me... This reminds me of early stuff we did with the Upright Citizen's Brigade. Though we would have chucked that glass at the wall to end it.
|
My picks from the week of May 04
 |
I Am Not Mark Twain 2
Why I love it:
I worked with Steven Cragg at SNL and he is a funny mofo. This character and the POV reminds me of a George Saunders novel.
|
My picks from the week of March 30
 |
Bat Phone
Why I love it:
First off, I'm a grown man and I still think crank phone calls are funny. Second, I have two children and I still think a dude in a Robin outfit smoking a cig is funny. Hence this choice. Please do like twenty more of these.
|
My picks from the week of March 16
 |
Will Ferrell and Dave Grohl
Why I love it:
I knew this would be funny but it was ten times better than I thought it would be. Grohl has a deceptively good dead pan.
|
My picks from the week of February 24
 |
MTV's Human Giant - Viral Videos
Why I love it:
I know Ferrell chose a Human Giant video but I don't care. This made me laugh hard.
|
My picks from the week of January 27
 |
Accent Elimination Program
Why I love it:
That's like a scrapple, egg and cheese sandwich; wrong and yummy.
|
My picks from the week of January 20
 |
Bride Has Massive Hair Wig Out
Why I love it:
Real or not real? You decide. I don't want to give away my opinion but I want to meet the very talented actresses and filmmakers who wrote and directed this fictional piece.
|
My picks from the week of December 16
 |
What If There's Bears?
Why I love it:
This might be my favorite all time
video next to Used Cars and What's It Gonna Be. It's like they talked to me while I was sleeping to find out what I want to see in a video. Let's get this to twenty million hits so they're forced to show it on Entertainm
|
My picks from the week of November 18
 |
Bill Hicks on Marketing
Why I love it:
What ever happened to righteously angry funny comedy? It seems like the more corrupt our country got the less we saw it. Bill Hicks was the king of it. David Cross is good too. As is John Stewart and Colbert. But I love this clip cause it's straight down
|
My picks from the week of October 07
 |
Andy Kaufman Trusted You
Why I love it:
You forget how hard Kaufman was fucking with people. No one
was doing anything close to this back then. Except maybe Coyle and
Sharpe. Who are also genius.
|
My picks from the week of September 02
 |
Bush Zombies
Why I love it:
What if Bush really did have a press conference like this? Would it shock you? Really?
|
My picks from the week of July 22
 |
Borman Academy
Why I love it:
This is the kind of comedy I cheer on while watching. Kinda reminds me a tad of Guile.
|
My picks from the week of June 17
 |
Spiders On Drugs
Why I love it:
This piece combines drug use, footage of spiders and a deep voiced narrator to make me happy. But then again, when have you ever encountered those three elements and not been happy.
|
 |
Arrival
Why I love it:
What makes this short work is the acting. They play it very real and it makes the turn all the funnier.
|
My picks from the week of May 27
 |
Future Lebron James
Why I love it:
This is a very NBA fan inside joke. Only Bill Simmons and Marty Blake will find this amusing. But I love that someone had the idea and took time to make the video.
|
 |
Dwayne Campin
Why I love it:
A nice little piece. At first I thought it was an out take from the Red Shoe Diaries because of the production value but it surprised me. And they get out on a Who song which is always nice.
|
 |
Cynical Dreamer
Why I love it:
This piece didn't get it's due. It's really well shot and funny and short and smart. Let's rename it "Hot Lesbian Orgy Fest" and watch the hits pour in.
|
My picks from the week of May 13
 |
The Duel
Why I love it:
I felt like I was watching a combination of Richard Linkletter and Reno 911. It plays like a mini-feature complete with kick ass credits and a samurai sword vs nun-chuks show down. Dare I say "kick ass?"
|
 |
We've All Got Problems
Why I love it:
The expression on the guy who's on the pogo stick is way too intense in a good way. I also love that we never find out exactly why they are doing what they're doing. We assume it's to break a world record but I like to think it's something much stranger.
|
 |
N Word for the White Guy
Why I love it:
This one has an Up with People delivery style that fits perfectly with it's ugly subject matter. I love the examples of when white people can use the N word.
|
 |
Matthew McConaughey CAN'T get his sh...
Why I love it:
The shot of the X-Ray makes the whole piece. Plus it's a darn solid impression and the actor doesn't push it too, too far.
