I always thought the sound of a Dunkin' straw belonged in a bossa nova song. To be clear, I do not endorse Dunkin' Donuts; there is a vast multitude of brands whose straws can be used as percussion instruments. Song: "Mais Que Nada" by Sérgio Mendes & Brasil '66, written by Jorge Ben

You went to a lot of trouble making fake road-signs, for nothing. So they hand out college qualifications for this stuff nowadays, do they? No wonder the world is immersed in stupid wars right now. War used to be some evil achievement, now it's just stupidly everywhere, to bankrupt taxpayers.
The worst criticism is when someone in the audience says, so what
This won a film award? 😂😂😂😂😂 fake.
WTF was that all about?
A final thesis for a college degree, apparently. No wonder. Or maybe a final feces? With such writing skills, one just can't be sure which.
this was pretty dope
Hellllllllll yeah
how did i find this
Minecraft in real
Minecraft made on small family farms
this is a certified hood classic
all seems quite on the western front but that change just as quickly as H.K Plamp can compose an award winning Jazz-fusion album
another banger
Stoke!
head in the cieling fan
Why
I did get the 3rd, 7th, or 91st jokes
total HK Plamp protest moment
handsome john smith got me
This the best thing I've saw this day Lmao
Amazing how moss is so therapeutic......
Brilliant
Wow, I think I’ll start doing this now!
The last time I looked at moss was also the first time I was disemboweled.
Damn those are some nice bryophytes u got there
ayyy ohhh ayyy columbus, why dont you navigate yourself to the back of the line?
Ugh, can this video be about someone else?
this is fire
Some of my fondest memories are of looking at Adam Driver
I can't believe you got the entire Grateful Dead in this picture
On Spotify where?
i wonder what he's looking at
The score, of course! Sheet music is essential for this level of difficulty
Seems we’ve all gone a little insane
Impressive playing
1:38 was a legendary moment
Thank you. It cost me 40% of my budget
On Spotify when?
What’s the song called.
Fake
It was a fucking joke
I enjoyed watching your set, the impression of NPR transition music was great.
Thanks! Glad you liked it
Def better than Echo and the Bunnymen's cover
This is the Police parody I needed during coronavirus
I love this
YEAH BABEY
I liked the part when he exercised the 2nd amendment and everyone cheered
Wow...you are so big now
I liked the part when Donovan Menard.
I think Donovan Menard is soley responsible for the Zimmerman Telegram
