Mona has four tattoos. A year or two from now, Mona won’t have any tattoos. Here is some graphic footage of the painful procedure required to bring her from here to there. Think, kids: do you really want to have some stupid design on your ankle/arm/stomach for the rest of your life?

Our Ron Paul Girl series of videos was clearly a rip-off of the world-famous Obama Girl, so it was a great honor when they suggested a collaborative video instead of sending us a cease and desist.

Christmas, 33 AD– realizing that he has just a few months left to live, Jesus is in a reflective mood.  His best friend is named Doug.  We were really surprised that this video wasn’t more popular; it took us a while to figure out that Jesus is video poison (please see Sex vs. Jesus for details).

Nothing to see here… unless you happen to be a circa fall 2007 Metacafe producer.  This is kind of an inside joke for the Metacafe community, custom designed to bore and confuse anyone who isn’t familiar with their videos.

Not much to this one.  We were driving around Beverly Hills and saw a sign that we thought was kind of funny so we filmed it along with a little commentary.  Is life here in LA really that different from everywhere else?  Yeah, in some ways…
