OK, finally had the opportunity and reminder to watch the "Sing for Change" thing. Holy shit. I find roping children into politics to be detestable, and that cleared the bar with room to spare.

But, on another level, there is high comedy to be had there. It was fun seeing the music teacher jump around manically to what must be the worst arrangement of anything, ever. And the lyrics? Rhyming "freedom" with "lead 'em" has a level of crassness that can be tough to attain in our post-ironic age.
If it has a flaw --if--, it's that it is a little too easy to mock. Otherwise: A+.

It's even more hilarious and absurd than religious devoutness, and that's saying something.

That, or a good volleyball to the face.
GREEN MAN!

If Charlie didn't exist, we'd have to invent him.
"You can't fit all this shit in a bindle, man! We need like a towel, or a sheet or something! And that's not cool!"

Charlie: Of course there's gonna be an explosion!
You think I'm not gonna explode?!

Pimp my walker is funny cuz it's true. Not too long after my younger sister got her first paycheck, we were at my grandparent's house. She asked my grandpa for her money back.

I tried that one on my father after he turned 65. He said he was applying his social security checks to what I owed him for college.
I haven't raised it since.
