People who are guilty of this crime should be hanged.

I refreshed the page then accidentally refreshed 5 seconds later. and BOOM video

I don't use the already watered down "elevated hand slap" for much anymore so therefore there would be less people guilty and therefore hanged in my life, but it sure would get rid of a lot of losers in the world.

As for the actual video, its well executed and leads to a good joke, the therapist was funny an overall averagely funny job.

rewatch edit:

I rescind my statement about it being averagely funny, this one was just way more subtly funny in the make you smile but not really laugh cause thats a little joke way. So after a few rewatches much funnier, good work. But graham doesn't look angry enough in the first shot of him to me.

I was totally expecting Graham to do the Junk Kick right after Brad went for the high five, but oh well.

They've already used a junk kick joke this year. And it was a good one, why try again when you know it wouldn't have been as funny?

Exactly.

We don't want to come across as a one-junk-kick pony.

No Ad? Hmmmmm

Awesome vid though, the 'Other LRR members' finally getting some love.

In Trevor's defense, as has been previously established, that was some damn fine piece of ass.

/creepy mode

I felt like I was left hanging at the end, but I suppose that's the entire point. And I love Brad popping his collar as he stands up.

P.S. I love how pissed off Graham's character is over the whole thing.

The second short one in as many updates, but still pretty awesome.

Brad is awesome.

Therefore this video is awesome.

I absolutely love the short cut to Graham standing in the dark with his hand still up and that very put-upon frown on his face. It's little, sharp cuts like that one that tend to be really funny to me.

Edit: Also, is that house built for midgets? I mean, I know you grow 'em big in Canadia (something in the water?), but those ceilings looked very low.

Junk kick

That was good. Whatever basement this was filmed in reminds me of home - quite a bit actually. Also, "one-junk-kick pony," heeheehee. :D

The therapist scene was awesome - most straight face I ever saw from someone talking about "some sweet piece of ass"...

Great video. The only thing that could have made it better is a time lapse shot of Graham with his hand up as it gets dark, rather than a straight cut. Although I imagine that standing in one place with your arm up in the air gets tiring very fast.

I've only ever heard it through LRR, is the bros code like an actual thing people follow? Anyway, the switch from quick dialogue and editing to the slow therapy second half was perfect. This was good, but its times like this when LRR not being a half-hour sketch hurts it the most, it doesn't have time to build 'funny' momentum.

(also, since AAAL I've started reading Lyingbedmon's posts in his voice, took me by surprise)

This post is meaningless, i just wanted to be on first page for once.

At first I was thinking that only Graham's character was really into the bro code, but the collar pop easily established that both characters were the type to take that seriously.

Also, "One-Junk-Kick Pony" sounds like an awesome hair metal band.

This happened on an episode of How I Met Your Mother when Barney was left hangin'.

The Bro code, full of bro-ie needs. I loved this one, I laughed so hard it hit rather close to home for me. Some folks get to hung up on the hanging

This video wasn't so much laugh out loud funny as it was an amusing concept brought to a funny punchline. Therefore, I approve. More of this please.

Also: I'm looking forward to the podcast for this one because I want to hear the explanation for the tiny room. I mean man. That room looks tiny in that shot.
