The Exquisite Corpse Project on Last Call with... →
adamconover:
Our movie was profiled on NBC’s Last Call with Carson Daly last week! Incredible.
Ungentle reminder: If you still haven’t seen The Exquisite Corpse Project, it can be yours for just five bucks!
For real, though, what are you waiting for?

Look,
there is a lot to like about the wikipedia entry for the Infinite Monkey Theorem, including the long explanation of the mathematical definition of “almost surely” and the random text generator that, after “2,737,850 million billion billion billion monkey-years,” spat out the partial Henry IV, Part 2 line:

doigsong asked: Just to say that I'm a massive fan and your ending to the film was beautiful- you tied it up so well! Was there an idea behind Adam in the space suit besides the "adventure-temptation"?

robotgod asked: also, i am probably going to buy the download of the exquisite corpse project because i was a huge OE fan back in the day and it looks good but i'm a bit hesitant because i'm a poor college student and for $5 i could get 80 oz. of OE instead so try and push me off the fence

Hey! Did you know my comedy group made a movie? Did you know it’s called The Exquisite Corpse Project? Did you know it’s been available to stream and download for the last week? Did you know we have a screening in LA TONIGHT? Did you know we’ll have a screening in Chicago next week, IF we sell enough tickets in the next 24 hours?

Lunch With The Person Who Dumped You
You get an email from your ex-whatever-it-was-you-two-were-exactly, asking to meet for lunch. The tone of the email is friendly, casual, if a bit stiff. You agree, in a friendly, casual, if a bit stiff email of your own, and a date is set. But what kind of lunch will it be? Hold your breath and SPIN! THAT! WHEEL!
The No Hard Feelings Lunch
This is probably the best case scenario. You can be...
We did this interview for Splitsider where we... →
so check it out if you are interested in those things. I like this interview a lot, even though I’m a little embarrassed by how much I talked (and how much I swear). Also, never before has the phrase “[They all laugh.]” been used so many times to imply, “You wouldn’t necessarily know it from the words they are saying, but these people actually like each other!”
...
Oh, hello there.

I feel like I'm going to be an awesome parent
because every time my kid asks me a question I don’t know how to answer, I’m just going to pretend the question was rhetorical.
“Dad, what does irony mean?” “I know, right?”
“Dad, what does the president do?” “Ha! Exactly.”
“Dad, are you drunk?” “Man, you’re telling me. Society, right? Am I right? …...

At 7:35 A.M, you lay your tired body on mine
before peeling off, like a slow band-aid.
At 8:40 you sprint home and make instant coffee.
At 9:45 we finally drink it, cold.
I finish your leftover half.
By 10:50 you are already breathless.
I live for every time we overlap.
When 11:55 comes I spend the entire minute convincing you to stay.
You never do.
By noon I put my hands on...

We were in Rome as the pope lay dying.
It was our last night in Italy, after a whirlwind tour of the country. We had scuttled over the bridges of Venice and hiked the cliffs of Cinque Terra and sat outside the Uffizi gallery in Florence while a British-Italian couple played guitar and sang Simon and Garfunkel covers and when they did Homeward Bound I got a lump in my throat and grabbed her hand and held it tight in my pocket.
