Anyone who reads this site on a regular basis knows that I love Aziz Ansari. I’ve already posted his Raaaaaaaandy Documentary and his appearance on Jimmy Kimmel. Here he is on Conan talking about buying sheets. Awesome stuff!
So the story goes that he got ripped off and bought 600 thread count sheets and they only had 296 threads! Never buy a brand named Hotel Linens, because they are not as good as advertised.
“If that was a drug deal, I would have shot Hotel Linens in the face”
Easily the best ongoing segment from the Conan O’Brien late night program has always been Triumph the Insult Comic Dog. I have featured it on this blog in the past when Triumph went to the Bonaroo Music Festival, and here he is again, making fun of all of the people at an extremely swanky dog hotel in Hollywood.
Not much commentary to add to this video, other than the fact that Triumph is awesome, and Robert Smigel’s (the guy who puppets Triumph and makes the comments) ability to ad lib is pretty amazing. Enjoy parts 1 and 2!
I haven’t had much of a chance to watch Conan on his new show/time slot, but if he keeps on having sketches like this, chances are that he will win America over. I have been a huge fan of him for years, and among my favorite running sketches is Triumph the Insult Comic Dog, who is played by comedian/writer Robert Smigel.
Combine one of my favorite ongoing sketches and one of my favorite pastimes, making fun of hippies, and you end up with a pretty awesome clip. Just 5 pure minutes of Triumph making fun of the bands, and their followers. I’m not sure how long it actually takes to film one of these Triumph clips, but the bonaroo sketch is packed with great one liners.
Here are some great one liners from Triumph/Robert Smigel:
Bonoroo is the sound Scoobie Doo makes when he climaxes… bonnaarrooooo
Is there nothing you Phish fans can’t make out of hemp?? Because you smeeeell!!
Is this the compost heap? Just looking for some Black Eyed Peas Songs
You look great. You kind of look like Abe Lincoln on a Drug Bender
This is called noodle dancing from Phish fans. I think I saw this kind of dancing on ’so you think you can suck’
How many people are able to track the exact place where they contracted Chlamydia?
A lot of people are into free love here… except for this guy, he’s into free ribs
