one of the wonderful things about stairway is that NOBODY MADE IT no one got even close, this was the height right here and it's beautiful.

Sad. That "What a Feeling" guy is actually pretty limber and, with some real training, could've been a dancer on Carrie: The Musical.

I know/<3 about 1/2 the stuff on this thread but just watched a couple T&E skits and I'm not really sure. I could be funny with either very little sleep or a lot of pot or a combination thereof but otherwise? idk.

xpost2enbb
they're these two guys who met at temple u. maybe go to comedy central's website and watch a bunch of their stuff. they're sort of obsessed with public access television, infomercials, low budget televisuals in general
they also fixate on toilet humor, which can get old fast, but aside from that, i think they are genuinely hilarious when they focus on the nuances of whatever i mentioned up there in the first paragraph of this post. so, at their best they do spot-on absurd takes on the dumbest aspects of nineties popular culture and beyond. it's worth a look. the kind of thing you might have to warm up to or sift past the crud to get into
― dell (del), Wednesday, 25 May 2011 01:19 (thirteen years ago) link
they're absurdist humor, i guess, for lack of a better description, and yeah drugs probably help

― call all destroyer, Wednesday, 25 May 2011 01:30 (thirteen years ago) link
yeah dell totally otm. It is, in my opinion, totally and completely about the nuances: their little pauses and twitches and facial expressions and the manner in which they deliver lines, etc. Also, they reach a level of weird that's very difficult to attain, and they sort parody vibes and scenarios more than like actual concrete ideas or objects.

They also incorporate actual public access weirdos and other unhinged people into their work. They found these guys ... probably online, not sure. But worked with them a ton:
