Also, how are you going to use a plastic bag as a book cover?

I don’t know what he was about to do when this picture was taken, but he was about to do it sexily.

Tim Heidecker has spoken about him being a big influences bunch of time, even at length in some academic settings lol

He didn't care about birthdays, but today would have been his 81st.

Sometimes they would drop hundreds of metallic darts that gained speed via gravity. They would do it over the enemy trenches. The dart would often go right through somebody; in at the head and out through the groin. Somebody would call out that it's coming and they all would cringe in absolute terror.

Semen joke. I was making a subtle joke that someone masturbated to a picture of your boyfriends uncle.

Early Tim and Eric experiments.
He, honestly, kinda looks like a morph halfway between Tim and Eric.

Oh, do you know what it is? My boyfriends mom had the whole album down in the basement, some of the pictures got damp to a point of no return.

He came to the States pre-Revolution, not intending to stay here. Part of a wave of students on visas who were getting doctorates and planning to go back to Iran. The Revolution shut the door on that.

I just don’t like the passive aggressive comment like I’m supposed to be a kind reader and know they were premature. Like post it with the post or don’t get mad when people point out the obvious without knowing anything. It’s just a childish way to view the internet to expect ME to care about YOUR problems

Excuse the bad quality. Picture has water damage (as you can see on the top part of the image) so we decided against taking it out of the foil

I grew up watching Taxi and I loved him on there. I didn't really get his stand up, it just seemed odd - but it probably was over my head.

Same thing. I thought it was some sort of AI generated muppet until I noticed the face.

I felt Jim poking through a LOT. It was much more obvious in the theatre, but it still kinda bugs me. He is just a centimeter over the top in quite a few scenes.
