    Oh God, it was only a matter of time before the internet found this. Believe me, it looses its hilarity after seeing it during the local news everyday. There’s a second version, btw, of equal crapitude.

  13. Max Von Sydow is my grandpa. For reals.

    I swear to fucking god I have that kitchen table

  15. Haha, I love this song, it?s funny seeing it being used for office furniture, there are probably hundreds of different companies it could be used to advertise with funny results.
