This video has been making the rounds, and it’s easy to understand why. The only thing glaringly missing is: “Is mercury in retrograde? It seems like mercury’s in retrograde.”

Haha – I saw this yesterday and *almost* sent it to you! For the record, I never say “twinsies!”
Budj December 14, 2011, 2:10 pm
I’ve totally said twinsies before 🙁
GingerLaine December 14, 2011, 2:13 pm
It doesn’t count if I call it “twinkies,” right? Right???
Of course, the short version of that – twinks – has been sort of re-appropriated in recent years, so maybe all of this is coming together to tell me that it’s time to stop.
evanscr05 December 14, 2011, 4:43 pm
haha my friends and I say “samies”, but same principal 🙂
Morgan December 14, 2011, 2:08 pm
Like, I’m not even joking right now, I think I’ve literally (oooh, they forgot one) done all of these in the last month.
Addie Pray December 14, 2011, 2:14 pm
LITERALLY! Good one. Yes, they forgot that one. They also forgot ANYWAY…
My favorite part was: “listen, listen, listen. listen to this email!” hahaha.
ScrambledMegs December 14, 2011, 2:13 pm
I watched this literally 2 minutes after calling my brother saying, “can you do me a favour?”
hahaha
Morgan December 14, 2011, 2:16 pm
I think I text my boyfriend that like 5 times a day. And half of them “can you do me a huge favor? If you’re near a computer can you look up…”
ScrambledMegs December 14, 2011, 2:18 pm
haha, yes ‘huge’ is often included in my requests too
Wendy December 14, 2011, 4:25 pm
I say this to Drew about 10 times a day. It used to just be two or three times a day, but now when Jackson, it seems I need more favors than before.
bittergaymark December 14, 2011, 2:17 pm
Oh, the “Are you near your computer?” one is so damn accurate. Two of my best girl friends do this to me all the fucking time and they are usually calling me ON THEIR IPHONES!!!!
Eagle Eye December 14, 2011, 3:54 pm
Hah! Its my boyfriend who actually does that one ALL.THE.TIME. as the only 20-something left who still doesn’t have a smart phone…
I’m totally sending this to him btw…
Rosie December 14, 2011, 4:29 pm
Haha I’m guilty of this. I’m still smart phone-less as well.
sweetleaf December 14, 2011, 2:59 pm
I watched this yesterday 3 times cause it was so amazing. My favorite is when ‘she’s’ smashing those chips at the end!! Ahahahaaa!!
rangerchic December 14, 2011, 3:41 pm
Are we really like that? Really?? I need to show this to my husband! 🙂
Beckaleigh December 14, 2011, 4:01 pm
This was totally about ME! hahahaha
spot December 14, 2011, 8:50 pm
Hahaha…I saw this yesterday and can’t get enough of it. I second you guys that he forgot “LITERALLY” and “ANYWAY” but I guess those will come in episode 2. Some others might be “Seriously?” or “just 5 minutes!” “can you hold on just one second?” “that is just ridiculous!” “why would you even ask me that?” “where is my phone? can you call it?” …it would also be funny if he made fun of the daily birth control cell phone alarm
TaraMonster December 14, 2011, 9:40 pm
Lmao!
Oh wish I had watched this at work earlier. I needed to laugh! I do the “LISTEN LISTEN LISTEN” one all the time. And this one I do EVERY DAY:
“Did I lock the door?” ……. “Yes.”
Caris December 15, 2011, 9:02 am
I don’t do any of this 😀
My bf asks me quite a lot: does this sentence make sense? , can you do me a favor? can you search something for me?
lynda December 15, 2011, 11:01 am
Aaah….Mercury HAS been retrograde, since Nov 24th, and depending on where you live, went direct Tuesday late (12-13) or yesterday (12-14). It really can impact your life—I’ve asked people in industries which might be influenced by a Mercury retro over a period of years how things have been (without mentioning anything about Mercury) and the ‘crazy’ periods’ are those with Mercury retro.

Am I the only one that doesn’t really think this is funny?
6napkinburger December 16, 2011, 2:15 pm
nope, I’m with you. Not quite sure its picking on girls. Ive been called by many guys to look things up and I do tons of “can you do me a favor”‘s for them to.
I’m not even trying to be all “why pick on women” about this; I just really don’t get it (as in, everyone does that) so I don’t quite get the joke.
But then again, I’m in NYC, where the girls are girls, the men who like men are girls, and the men who like girls are also, unfortunately, girls.
