It's still Tuesday!

New video! This one was written and directed by Zach Parris. It's up a little late cause I am out of town for a little while, but it's still Tuesday, so it's still on time! I don't know why I said it was late! Ha ha!



That's right, I'm totally in another state, and I'm STILL UPDATING! How do we do it? Plus, I literally almost got arrested for drug trafficking on the way here, and I'm STILL UPDATING! HOW DO WE DO IT?


With gusto.

behind the scenes, at funny shorts

here's how we get. things. done:

1:21 AM me: I forgot you guys are shooting tomorrow
1:22 AM Christopher: yea
me: yeah
Christopher: on a boat
me: I was serious when I said I didn't even know what was tomorrow
   I kinda wanted to help out with that
  mainly just cause of the boat thing
  I'm sure it will be SMOOTH SAILING
  AAHHHAAHA
Christopher: haha
  nice
1:23 AM me: I'm kidding, of course
  I will be surprised if it doesn't end in some kind of disaster
  someone's getting soaked
  that's all I'm saying
1:24 AM Christopher: I'm gonna trick Chris into thinking I am the camera
  cuz I know he will protect that thing
me: I'm not sure I know what that means
1:25 AM Christopher: like, if the boats start to rock
   and someone is going to fall in
   first thing Chris will do is make sure the camera doesn't get wet
   so if he thinks I am the camera
1:26 AM then I'll be fine
me: ohh I see now
   literally, you're going to pretend to be a camera
1:27 AM I feel like... he might see through that one
Christopher: nah dude, my costume is AWESOME
1:28 AM me: this seems really elaborate
Christopher: I really don't like being wet
1:29 AM me: oh dude you should have told me, I wouldn't stand so close to you all the time
1:30 AM Christopher: eeeeeewwwwww
me: get it?
Christopher: yeeeeaaaaaaa
   eeeeeewwwwwwwww
1:31 AM me: cause people tend to get wet when I'm nearby
Christopher: oh I get it now
   that's not so gross
me: get it?
1:32 AM Christopher: like you're aquaman
   right?
me: that's what the ladies call me!
   wait no that doesn't really make sense
Christopher: that's kind of awesome actually
   The Ladies call me aquaman, cuz I get them so wet
1:33 AM I mean, it doesn't make complete sense, but it works
1:34 AM me: I smell a new single
   anyway I guess the point I'm trying to make is, good luck with the shoot tomorrow
Christopher: lol thanks




goodnight, everyone

Brand. New. Video. !!!.

It's Tuesday again, so here's a GREAT new update!


We're trying something a little different with this one. It's longer-form ("more like capris" -my sister) and was actually completely improvised on the fly. That's right. It's a regular Whose Line here at funny shorts:





Be sure to pop on over to the extras page as well, and check out the new wallpapers and song downloads!


update: I just added a small button under every video that lets you super easily share it on about a bajillion different social networking sites like facebook or twitter. Or even just email. Because, I know how difficult it was before, where you had to copy and paste the link. Ugh, SO much work! Now you just click one simple button!

So if you feel so inclined, please help us out by sending our particularly funny videos to your friends. It's really the best gift we can get!

Warning: it gets kind of fruity.
