Krispy Kreme is giving out patriotic star shaped donuts to people with “I Voted” stickers on Election Day. This sweetens the deal for next Tuesday. Pun INTENDED!
I plan on bringing multiple changes of clothes to the one Krispy Kreme I know of in Manhattan for maximum patriotic donut consumption. Hopefully this doesn’t have the same effect as people trying to vote multiple times. If it does, America will have to deal. Because I like donuts, and when that Hot Light is on, nothing - not even the most important politcal moment of our times - will stop me.
Last week I wrote a post for BestWeekEver.tv about how every Zac Efron movie features him playing TONS of basketball. The High School Musical movies are a given, but now he’s in another movie, 17 Again, where he plays a man who gets to be a teenager again (this man is Matthew Perry, who wants to do his life over, so he comes back as a 17 year-old Zac Efron. I think this is the true story of Matthew Perry’s life after Studio 60 was canceled…hey-ooo!).
I looked around on the internet and surprise, I was able to find TONS of Zac Efron basketball footage - from HSM movies, to TV interviews, to new movie footage. It’s like this guy’s daily regimen is 1.) Wake up, 2.) Work on perfect anroidish good looks, 3.) Dance practice, 4.) Layups, Umbrella Defense, bounce passing, ball handling drills, wind sprints. 5.) Watch 1993 Chicago Bulls highlight tape for life inspiration.
So Josh and I made this movie trailer for BWE.tv which is the next logical step for Zac Efron’s career. Look for him soon in theaters in ALL BALL.
Man this was a long week. A very good week and also a very crazy, busy, long one.
I finished my guest blogging stint at BestWeekEver.tv which was awesome and so much fun. I am now more in touch with pop culture and funny pictures on the internet than I was before. It was a great experience to have to write and produce a certain number of pieces a day and get to sit alongside of people who are doing the same thing (at an alarmingly fast rate….our writers are pro for real).
I also got to hone my Photoshop skills to create some pics for my posts and I now understand how putting a dumb caption on a picture can really make it view-worthy. Here are some of my favorites (click the titles for the article links):
I also got to feel the sting of internet commenters (who usually tell you “ur gay!” no matter what you do) when I wrote dialog to a series of pictures of Sarah Palin and John McCain exchanging an awkward hug. I thought, “Hey, that looks awkward….” so I wrote some lines. What I didn’t realize is that, while Palin’s face in the picture shows disapptoinment and awkwardness (which was the funny part of the pictures to me, her face going from happy to flat and awkward), most people thought I was making fun of the fact that McCain probably can’t hug normally due to his past war torture wounds. Uhhh, idiot check, I’m raising my hand. I had no idea. I knew McCain had been tortured, was a war hero, and generally a very brave person, but didn’t realize that it was that extreme. Sooooo, needless to say a few people left some great comments about ‘scraping the bottom of the barrel’ for laughs when I was actually somewhere around the middle of the barrel. So that in itself was awkward and I felt bad once I realized the horrible coincidence I stumbled upon. However, I can vouch that that wasn’t a partisan attack, as I am a registered Independent. I’m only allowed to vehemently attack the Green Party.
And I wrote another post on ridonkulous looking bikes that did well on Digg (and you can Digg it again if you like, Digger Phelps).
I also had to work Thursday night doing the BWE.tv podcast that I do so I can eat, and it turned out awesome. Craig hosted and Josh was his 2001 Justin Timberlake Impersonator. Pop is a good song, and I’m a believer now (the video is in a post below - Josh can dance like a member of the Rockafire Express at Showbiz Pizza).
Also, our new Lynn Lynn video (in another post below this one as well) turned out well and is getting a good response.
Today I found out I’ll be doing some acting on Monday. All in all, what a great week. Not much sleep, but I’m really thankful. I just found $700 dollars in my fridge too. Man I couldn’t have asked for a better week. Right, Elvis? Did I mention Elvis is alive and crashing at my place?? Also, the fact that I am still blogging is ridiculous.
I’m guest blogging at BestWeekEver.tv this week. Check it out and go leave some comments like, “Wow that was an amazing post! This guy is the beeeeest!”
That’d be great. And then in secret we can critique my writing.
Here’s the newest Lynn Lynn video, Vote Video Interrupted, in the tune of all those celebrity vote videos. Josh and I really want you to get out and vote. Sorta. Whatever.
Props to our girl Leslie Collins for being it and being hilarious. VOTE! (sorta. but really. maybe?)
