Some humpday humor from a funny little brown Asian. No, not me, I’m just the blogger. It’s Aziz Ansari (Parks and Recreation, Human Giant) from last Sunday’s hilarious Comedy Central special, Intimate Moments for a Sensual Evening via Funny or Die.

Just released yesterday on CD, iTunes, DVD (which contains an extra 30 minutes not seen on TV), and for free to listen to here at Spinner.com (sorry Aziz, but it’s for the people).

See crazy azz Aziz discuss more on Conan (thread counts), Letterman (Kanye) and Jimmy Kimmel (R. Kelly).

This British advert for Robinsons Be Natural squash drinks redefines the term “birdhouse” and also makes me wonder: how much is rent in a place like that?; what’s the square footage?; is it rent controlled? what’s the neighborhood like?; is it in a good part of the forest? I need some answers before I sign any lease.

Thanks to Matto Grosso for giving me the bird.
