Sorry to be a spelling nazi, "hi Hitler", but it is spelt Pythonesque.

Felt the need for an Unskippable reference.

Phrasesaurus:

"Hi Hitler" -- Not Found

Did you mean:
"Heil Hitler"?

Oh WOW!!!

This is definitely one of my favorite LRR videos ever. Everything just seemed right!

I was laughing damn near constantly throughout the entire video, especially during the quick cuts between the mercenaries and Graham trying to clarify things. Paul's bumbling at the end was just icing on the epic cake, great job guys!!

(Oh and DUH-- Brad's part in the ad was really hilarious, and Raymond was awesomely campy. No worries, guys, I wouldn't leave you out of the compliment dishing <3)

Y'know, this video is made even more funny to me because I know a Ryan Owens, who is a huge pinko commie that I would probably contract these guys out to kill....or just do it myself.

I'm sure there's at least been an ad like the one in this video but I'm not sure where, it seems extremely familiar.

Wow... loved the vid, and loved the 'non-ad' for the store.

Short but sweet.

Also, need to remind myself to utilize some of my Christmas money to buy DVDs+T-shirt. My sister only has seasons 1&2, and she's borrowed them off to someone. -cry-

One of the best yet

That's where I lost my composure, btw. I was constantly loling through the video, but then I simply burst into hysterical laughter at that.

That, and the "Fast Times at Ridgemont High" joke on Family Guy. XD

The best part about Alex lighting the cigar? Kathleen's face.

What the hell is he doing?
Is he actually lighting the cigar?
Is he actually lighting the cigar with a miniature blowtorch?
Why the fuck would he just carry one of those around?

What did we learn this week?

* If you're victimized by crippled nuns on arbour day, you're on your own.

* There needs to be some sort of price tier between the "A Team" and what I can only assume was the "C- Team".

* Bandannas make everything better.

* Also, bananas. And they're easier to spell. But never confuse the two. It's not only a fashion faux pas, it's sticky and embarassing.

* Do not attempt to hire Bill Nye to kill your wife's lover under any circumstances.

* All mercenaries know Powerpoint.

Best thing about this vid: Paul. Just fact, this bit was funny all the way through, but Paul just made me laugh SO MUCH

This is my new favourite video. I love it. It's pretty much the funniest thing ever.

Actually, Raymond looks like Ed Byrne with his glasses on, with them off he looks a bit more feminine (sorry, my long haired brother in arms). Still he rocked his part out.

Brad: "...a plus two to sexy..."
I'm so using that now. So if I have all four t shirts, would I have a plus-eight to sexy, or would I have to wear them all at once for that?

I really liked the video a lot. I thought at some point you would go back to like a Max Payne-hitman firm or something.

I would like to say High-Larious.

Now that I've said that i would also like to point out that I did figure something out about the video before it went up from the preview, that it was taped in part at U-Vic. It may not have been much but it gave something away none the less.

At some point I want to feature a merc who keeps racking the pump on his shotgun for emphasis, only to realize later that he's ejected all his ammo in the process..

I'm going to point out that there were no bullets wasted in this sketch for the following reason: You may have cocked the hammer more than once but you only pulled the slide back once, which, unless there was already a bullet in the chamber(There obviously wasn't... and not just because it's an Airsoft pistol), means no wasted bullets.

I do like the shotgun idea though.

Probably not, bonuses like that rarely stack... And besides... that'd only get you up to a +0 net bonus anyways

Part of the fun is figuring out which part of which building the video was filmed in. For this video upper floors of Clearhue right?

achesst · Postby **achesst** » 12 Jan 2009, 23:34

I may have missed it, but what exactly happened to Mr. Postlethwaite, formerly of Kane, Crowthorn and Postlethwaite? As it stands, I get the impression he was killed during a mission.

Vaughn · Postby **Vaughn** » 12 Jan 2009, 23:40

It was probably a horribleDecoupage Accident, hence why they no longer practise the art.
