Taran Killam Does His Best Robyn Impression at 4:30 am on SNL’s Writing Night
With bonus flashlight rave from Bobby Moynihan, Vanessa Bayer, Sarah Schneider, and Abby Elliot.
This is so wildly endearing.
I’m so glad this is up!
Taran Killam wins the internet.
Perfection.
Such a great week for Taran Killam (this, Community holiday special). Love the guy working through the entire video.
In preparation for Hurricane Katrina, Six Flags New Orleans closed and never reopened. Click the pic for dozens of pictures from an abandoned tour of the amusement park.
the temptations - ain’t too proud to beg
i’m all jacked up on thera flu, and this is my favorite song of always.
also listen to the song, and then re-listen to this song while only paying attention to the horn line. it is the best use of horns ever. the sax on the 2’s of the verses makes every other song invalid.
Also one of my favorite songs. Tommy why didn’t we spend our year as roommates just dancing around to Motown?
The Vote-Off
Here’s a video I wrote and directed for Funny or Die. We picked ten people off the street, put them in our conference room, and made them immediately start voting each other out, for absolutely no reason at all. Thomas Lennon was our host, and was absolutely amazing. That guy can improvise!!!
And thanks to the entire crew: the producers, editors, camera guys. Everyone was awesome.
P.S. Did you know that 2011 is the year of the nearly-eleven-minute-long web video!?!!?
(Sorry it’s so long.)
All the tension! Arsenio Hall clearly gives the best advice.
In repsonse to aatombomb’s and approachingsignificance’s post about Troy Davis, I propose we DO SOMETHING about it that takes 30 seconds.
We’ve all seen Tumblr do some amazing things ranging from donating thousands of dollars to friends in need, raising tens of thousands for countries who faced disaster to finding a place for friends to live, finding them a job or just giving moral support everyday. I’m not asking for money, but how about signing a petition that may save an innocent man from the death penalty?
From the Innocence Project:
Davis was convicted almost exclusively on the basis of eyewitness identification testimony, which has been shown through DNA exonerations and thousands of academic studies to be unreliable. Seven of the nine witnesses who testified at his trial have since recanted and strong evidence points to another person as the real perpetrator in the case.
The only man that can stop the execution scheduled for tonight, September 21 at 7pm, is GA District Attorney Chisolm and he needs to hear from us asap. And so does Mr. Davis.

This makes me sad.

Viewers’ Opinions Toward American Muslims broken down by Media Source
This chart shows how Fox viewers, more so than viewers affiliated with any other news outlet, are more likely to hold incorrect and Islamophobic views
More Information @ Think Progress
The Fox News results don’t surprise me. The ~35% of other people who believe that Islam isn’t important and is at odds with American values worries me much more.
