This week's viral crazes...

Two videos I just saw this week and couldn't help but share.

The McCain Girls (via New York Mag)
It's painful, but hold out for the scene where it actually does start raining McCain's and you'll lose your shit.

UPDATE: Tis a damn fine comedy hoax.

Bathing with Bierko: John Malkovich
The fact that John Malkovich is willing to get in the tub with Craig Bierko and have his ears lovingly scrubbed as he repeats "Portugal" and "flamingo" over and over makes me love Malkovich even more than I already did.

ah-yup.
thanks for both. you get good balance of awful awful awful awful parody in one, and refreshingly original and pleasant in the other. malkovich's tub interview ends up being so much less awkward and natural than the premise would imply, while 'McCain' is just ...bad. but how bad? were things like the older woman's shirt greenscreened intentional? it's becoming hard to tell what is true amateur vid work and what is mocking amateur perfectly.

This is *true* amateur idiocy....

Sure, that McCain girls video is amazing, but it doesn't hold a candle to "La Pequeña Hillary Clinton".

I hope this election never ends.

WALNUTS!

Hey, if it's raining McCain, that must mean his depends are leaking.

[Dale Hazelton]

After seeing "Color Me Kubrick," the tub interview makes perfect sense.

Not so much the "raining" Mccain, but when she splashes her own face with Mccain is when I near lost all motor functions.
