    That little shrug at the end is actually painful.

    That would make even Gandhi want to smash his face in.

    I’m thinking it’s supposed to be bad, so it’s actually good. You know, it’s self-knowingly ironically bad.

    A paycheck is a paycheck.

    I still love you, David Cross. <3

    Rolling Stone magazine says “No.”

    David Cross has a pretty significant role in the Alvin and the Chipmunks movie. As a fan of his stand-up, I’m forced to conclude he was CGI-ed in without his permission…

    Even Shakespeare gots to get paid, son.

    The pan will burn you, it’s not that super.

    A friend of mine once told me that despite what we used to think, that 10,000 monkeys on 10,000 typewriters WON’T recreate the works of Shakespeare. Instead, we got AOL.

  11. Teufelaffe says:

    I was working for AOL as a phone-rep when this ad was first released. We watched it at work for the first time and one of my colleagues said after a brief pause, “Did…did we really just release an ad that essentially calls all of our members, monkeys?”
