Five Dollar Friday

Explanation of Five Dollar Friday here. Follow who else is giving on twitter.

I'm violating the rules, because The Whitest Kids U'Know aren't actually doing this for free. I also don't know how to send them money. But someday I will meet one of them and hand them a five dollar bill for this:

I wish I'd made that.

That's hilarious. Some of their many other vids are funny too. Trevor Talks to Kids made me laugh. I couldn't laugh at Hitler Rap.

I could introduce you to Trevor Moore's mom, Jon. I'm also good friends with one of his former teachers. What's in it for me?

I am willing to negotiate a finder's fee up to a maximum of 20% of the deal. Also, I would definitely thank you.

Mr Schwarz, I am forgetting my manners.
Thanks a ton for posting this video clip. It is absolutely great.
And not only the baby is cute, the candidate himself is very cute!

I caught their set at SketchFest NY a few years back and was not at all impressed. Judging by this they've come a long way. Excellent stuff.
