As fun as shooting videos with Ben Schwartz is, it’s almost more fun editing them, because I get to see frames like these.

How often can you see high-res images of yourself laughing as hard as you possibly can? (click photo to see end results)

After helping me prank Streeter a couple months ago the fine folks at Skydive Long Island (in Calverton) said they’d take me on a jump for free. After declining many times I was finally peer pressured into going for it.

Now that I survived I can honestly say it was the best decision of my autumn!

Fifteen months ago, I speculated that the easiest job in the world would be casting a movie with a Nelson Mandela character — because you’d obviously go with Morgan Freeman.

Luckily, my days of speculation are over! Now, I can just email Fiona Weir, Casting Director for Invictus, and ask her directly if she has the easiest job in the world.

Jake and I are hosting a comedy show for Global Goodness on Monday, December 7.

Even if you don’t like helping fight illiteracy in some of the worlds poorest countries, you will at least enjoy the stand up comedy of all of our favorite comedians!

And thus concludes the greatest season of Curb Your Enthusiasm…

The perfect fictional ending to Seinfeld, may be the perfect real ending to Curb. After all, how can Larry David, who has so much pride in going out on top, come back for yet another season?

Tony Award winner, hip-hop extraordinaire, lyrical wordsmith, and CollegeHumor Freestyle Rapping Intern, Lin-Manuel Miranda raps about Alexander Hamilton in front of President Obama.

My only question is: how is this video not world-famous by now? Who ISN’T really impressed by this universally enjoyable video!?

I pranked Streeter again.

It happened a few weeks ago, and I’ve kept the whole thing under wraps because that video (Prank War 8) is being premiered TOMORROW (Thursday) night on Jimmy Kimmel Live at 12:05am/11:05pm central on ABC — and Streeter and I will be on the show to talk about it.

It’s not only my first prank on Streeter in over two years, it’s the first CollegeHumor video EVER to premiere on network television. You will also be able to watch it (in its entirety) on…

It’s taken a long time, but I finally have a favorite female college soccer player. Her name is Elizabeth Lambert, and this is her highlight reel.

Awesome.

I went to Las Vegas for Halloween with a bunch of my friends.

Before departing, Jeff “Rosie” Rosenberg gave me $5 to put on the intersection between 9 and 12 on the roulette table. Had it hit, he would have won $90. Unfortunately, it didn’t, and I texted Rosie to tell him so.

When I landed this morning in New York I had an email waiting for me from Rosie himself, and… well… just read it.

Rosie, if you’re reading this, I swear it didn’t hit, and I’m sorry that you got that impression.

It’s tough to imagine a commercial that leaves me as emotionally confused as this DirecTV spot starring David Spade, “Chris Farley,” and a scene from one of my favorite movies.

I’ve said it before and I’ll say it again, Shelley Long and Shelley Duvall are way too similar looking for two actresses named Shelley with an E.

I mean, they were even born just two months apart!

I don’t watch much television.

Sorry, I don’t watch much scripted television. I probably down 15 hours of TV a week and all but 90 minutes of that is devoted to sports. (Curb and Mad Men).

But after receiving a text from Dan about a great new show from the creator of one of my favorite 90’s sitcoms “Just Shoot Me” (Steve Levitan) and starring one of my favorite 90’s sitcom actors (Ed O’Neill) I hit up bittorrent and downloaded the first four episodes in about an hour.
