I really, really enjoyed this one. Funny and well acted. The stinger floored me though.

I think the script was awesome and was pleasantly surprised to see Andy wrote it; also, Graham and Matt did some amazing acting.

But I think one of the huge pluses of this video is how beautiful it looks--with long shots, great focus, and tremendous use of location shooting. Well done!

I loved this, had me laughing all the way from the start. :lol:
After the credits rolled and I saw that Andy wrote this I thought back and realised I should have been able to tell. You should pressure him into writing for you more often. :D

Also, gorgeous cookie brigade girl is gorgeous. :)

So does this replace "Son of a Bitch" as the video Matt is least likely to show his parents?

You guys have been on fire this whole season Cursing is one of the best-written and best-acted videos I've seen from you in a while.

Does anyone else find this similar to ArMEGAddon? Graham plays the "guy giving instructions to random people on the street" character very well.

I love how mat has spun the (incorrect) perception that he can't act into playing people who are really bad at acting (like in bed bugs).

It's also weird every time you guys say that it is a really cold shoot since it never looks like it. Over here cold tends to be accompanied by a lot of wind and things like snow and frost.

and did Kathleen change her hair color between the time you shot the video and whenever you shot the pax/cookie brigade bit, or is one side of the colored bit more orange than the other?

Her fringe is a separate colour to the rest of her hair I believe Pigmy.

From the peacock to the cookies, this was top drawer stuff.

I didn't know Victoria had free-roaming peacocks. Where was this shot?

I could totally tell how cold it was just from the preview picture, by the way. Then again, I live in Seattle, so I probably just know what that kind of weather looks like... :)

Haha, hilarious and totally great. :)

The bit at the end, is that something you did while shooting and edited it in as a blooper thing or just something you added later? Hilarious either way.

I would watch this, because, like Matt, I like a good fuck.


I loved this video. The banter, the blocking, the peacock, everything! I wouldn't mind seeing more! I don't know what that says about me. I guess I like people cursing future kids.

I took the liberty of counting the number of curses in this video. (Someone could go back and check if they wished, because I may have missed a few fucks in Graham's little fuckfest.) Overall, you said 21 curses not counting the bouts and the passers by, 19 being "fuck." There was one asshole and one shit in the middle of it. EDIT:I wonder if anyone will quote me on that.

EDIT: I decided not to use the things with Jer, Kathleen, and Graham because I wasn't sure how to measure it. I thought maybe one for the overall rant, or maybe for each sentence and couldn't decide between either.
What are you looking at.

I haven't even finished the video and I had to pause it mid sentence to post how incredibly funny it is. I would love more "adult" themed videos like this, and I'm sure I'm not the only one.

Well. Fucking. Done.

... Now Fuck off!

This may be the first video to actually give me wood.

I must admit, though, one of my friends wrote a veersion of the Aristocrats that was basically the longest litany of swears, epithets, double entendres, racial and homophobic slurs, and all out vulgarity known to man. This comes in a close second to that version.

Grahams character reminded me a lot of Story guy, with his almost needlessly deep analysis of rather minuscule things, and strangely upbeat outlook. Not to mention the "Ahh, Memories" line, which just screams story guy.
and now; back to me.

Also. Slightly related, I looked up who's on first to get the joke. That led me to your sketch version. Which led me to this. Hopefully, That is no longer confused, and Which gets his dream.

(HELP ME! I CAN'T STOP! :D)

I now have a donation of $20 lined up for the next desert bus for hope to see Paul do that absolutely perfect HHHHWWWHHAT!?!??! and HHHHOOKAAAY!

Graham wrote:That took many takes, and it was sooooooo cold :(

Oh, you blame the weather, but everybody who sees your face knows the truth. The coldness comes from within you. Your icy demeanor is a facade - and an amateurish one at that - designed to hide the sniveling little child who's afraid to face the responsibilities of a grown-up world. Well, I hope you warm up. I hope the shame burns you from the inside when you realize that the world is laughing at you, not with you. And on the day when you realize that shouting out profanities in the park is a cry for help, and that nobody cares enough to answer, I hope your tears melt the smirk off your face.

(Wow, that style of cursing is a lot more sinister than just saying "f--- off.")

up until the end i was expecting it to turn into a shaggy dog curse, with graham coming up with some elaborate insult that has taken the entire video to evolve.

The stinger had me laughing the hardest.

I absolutely loved the rapport between Matt and Graham. Graham's facial expressions when hiding behind Matt were hilarious too. And one of the best bits: Paul's barely audible "Fuck off!"

I think it was filmed in Beacon Hill Park.

For a video that at first gave me the impression that it was gonna just be cursing, I was happy to find it an impressive and funny look at the world of 'the curse'.
A good job all round people, and I too agree Alex should do more 'I'm not in this video' openers, but get other random people to do them to. Who needs a reason to be silly, I know i don't. :P

I dunno, I think Alex would be pretty awesome as the "Hello viewers, I'm award-nominated sketch comedy actor and cult figure Alex Steacy, and this next video includes a lot of derp, so take care!" guy
