Unfunny and offensive.

Hilarious. Not anything actually funny in it, but it is hilarious, if that made any sense.

I think so. I'm pretty sure the kid was played by Joe Lotruglio, who was my favourite part of Superbad and Wet Hot American Summer...

Also, not hillarious, but still kind of funny. Also, not offensive.

wtheck was offensive about that? I defy any one of you to deny you haven't made those EXACT noises once in your life. The whole durrrrrrr thing was a staple of goofing on my frieds back in the day, and to this day.

Please don't get on the mentally challenged pc bus with this one, I don't think it was even a farce of that. Honestly.

I thought it was pretty funny in a low-brow sorta way. then again, I'm a little warped.

Yep, that was from the State.


I think it's suppose to be more of a "look how stupid commercials+marketing are" thing, than a "let's make fun of the mentally handicapped".

It just sounded like funny sounding gibberish to me.

I didn't find it offensive.. (It takes a lot to offend me..)
It just wasn't funny. A group of 5th graders could come up with something funnier than that.

I watched 'The Ten' over the weekend. I actually like the stuff this group does (Wet Hot American Summer, Stella, Reno 911, etc.).

Between The State and Upright Citizens Brigade, i loved 90s sketch comedy (though honestly i never got into Kids in the Hall). Shoot, regarding 'The State', one of my friends used the '...so good i wanna dip my balls in it' refference yesterday.

I don't find it offensive at all. I don't find it funny at all, either.

That's what I got out of it. Not funny, but I get the point.
