Today, I was driving along in my car, and by "car," I mean car-dboard box with wheels painted on it, and I came across an old woman, and she was carrying the most beautiful, shiny toaster I had ever seen.

So I stopped my car ardboard box, I got out, and I said, "excuse me, miss, that "that toaster is is marvelous.
I-I was wondering if I could pay you for it.
" And she said, "no, it's not for sale.
It's my toaster, I'm not selling it to anybody.
" And I said, "miss, I implore you, I need that toaster.
It's it's so beautiful.
I-I want to stick my genitalia in it.
" And she said, "wha whe whi eh!" And I said, "oh, that that wasn't "I don't think that was English or any type of human language.

Hello.
I'm disturbed by your show, with the racism and the drugs and the alcohol and the and the magic mushrooms and people having sex with animals.
- I can't abide by it.
- Okay.
Why can't you talk about roses and the ocean instead? Let me transfer you to that department.
- Hold, please.
- What's up with all these whiner, crybaby crusaders trying to tell Roy what he can or cannot watch? God damn it, this is America.
If I want to watch a porno and then switch over to the Teletubbies, then so be it.
I will do it.
Don't you have work to do, or something? I got me an idea for a cartoon.
- You want to hear all about it? - No.
We are gathered here today to join this man and woman in holy matrimony.

- Oh, my god.
Honey, please, think before you talk.
Seriously, chicken, if you pull that trigger, I will hate you forever, even your stupid memory! Do you want that? [clucking.]
You don't have to do this.
You can be happy.
[crowd sighs in relief.]
Just like I'm gonna be happy with Nick here.
[angry clucking.]
[crowd gasps.]
Do not light yourself on fire.
Oh, sweet cannoli! Please, chicken, don't do this.

I don't know how I could live without you.

[crowd sighs in relief.]
[clucking.]
What? You just wanted to hear me say that? This was a test? [clucks.]
I am going to kill that chicken! [chicken clucking.]
Hey, bud, I've been thinking.

I'm not sure.
Well, how do we find out? I feel like that's important.

Hello, Triptank.
[on phone.]
Hi, this is Ricky the Rocketship.
When I said, "yes, you can do this sketch," I didn't mean that you can portray me as a [bleep.]
homicidal killer.
This is bullshit! So you're saying you're having an issue now? If I see that sketch anywhere on that show, I'm coming down and beating the shit out of you with an aluminum baseball bat.
I'm starting at your head, then working my way down to your ribcage, and then your knees, your ankles.
[fire engine siren blaring.]
I'm not even gonna miss your baby [bleep.]
toe! Three aliens came from the sky the galactic council sent them All: # and here's the reason why # the mission is to study Earth's most average gu-uy - Ah! - All: # to see if humans # are worth saving or if everyone has to die Wait, what? I see.
Uh-huh.
[phone beep.]
[sobbing.]
Looks like someone's got a case of "the frownsies.
" It's not "the frownsies," okay? My mom was just diagnosed with terminal cancer! Oh, we can cure that, no problem.
For us, that's like the sniffles.
- Really? - You're in luck, because our alien semen - Uh-huh.
- Has these special enzymes in it, and they'll fix your mom right up.
Oh, god.
Okay, well, what do we do? W-we put it in a pill, or something? Gosh, you're bad at guessing, Jeff.
So [coughs.]
how exactly does this work? Okay, this is this is gonna sound insane, mom, but, uh, Chief Windfeather here - Hello.
- He, uh, has special powers.
You know, like buffalo spirit, and stuff like that.
- Uh-huh.
- But really, to use these powers to their full potential, he has to be very, very close to you inside of you actually, and, uh, you know, what he's gonna do to you, it's gonna seem a lot like sex, but it's not sex at all.
It's just an ancient, ancient therapy that is guaranteed to work.
So what do you say, mom? Well, it couldn't be worse than chemo.
[grunting.]
[whispering.]
What is going on in there? Huh, that is more stubborn than I thought it was gonna be, - I'll be honest.
- What does that mean? Uh, how do I, uh Oh, a bowling ball has three holes in it, right? - Yes.
- Okay, so imagine how hard it would be to bowl a good game - with just one finger.
- What's your point? I need my other two fingers so we can give her the full triple-injection treatment.
Guys! [shuddering.]
Oh.
[all grunting.]
Hmph! Guys, this is a mistake.
- I should've - Good news, Jeff - No, great news! - We did it.
[laughing.]
Oh, thank god! That's amazing! She'll never get canker sores again! - What? - It's funny, you guys think they're such a big deal.
For us She didn't have canker sores, you [bleep.]
idiots! She had cancer! Can-cer! [gasps.]
Well, the only cure for that is the triple fist.
No! [all humming.]
[ethereal vibration.]
Ohh.

- How you feeling? - I feel amazing.
Wow! You guys are incredible.

She's always had, like, a thing for me.
[dialing tones.]
Ooh! [panting.]
[phone ringing.]
Ugh! [beep.]
[crowd booing.]

Hey, did somebody order a pizza? Ugh! [grunts.]
[cheers and applause.]
Iron Shogun wins the tournament! [cheers and applause.]
[laughs.]
Oh, I am sorry, traffic was just Ah, come on! I'm, like, five minutes late! [applause.]
Mom, Dad, I found this in your room, and I have a question.
[chuckles.]
Honey, I think it's time we have - that birds and bees talk.
- Oh, dear lord.
[laugh track.]
But Dad, I learned all about the birds and bees and other wildlife while in the scouts.
[laugh track.]
- No, sweetie, this is different.
- Yes, son.
When a mommy bird and a daddy bee love each other, they will come together and make a baby.
However, sometimes, the birds like to stung by the bees for fun.
[laugh track.]
Other times, the bees like to be choked by the birds.
Sometimes, the bird and bee will switch roles [laugh track.]
where the bee gets stung by a fake stinger that the bird wears.
[laugh track.]
Then there are times when the bird wears a mask, where she has to trust the bee to do things that hurt in the beginning, but in the end, feel amazing.
[laugh track.]
Other times, a bee will hook up with another bee, but it's cool, because it was in a hot tub.
Sometimes, a bird likes to get stung by many different bees in a row, while she was in college.
Sometimes, the bee goes to Vegas and sleeps with a strange bird.
Then he finds out that the bird has a stinger.
[laugh track.]
That bee had to kill that bird - and leave the body outside the city.
- Uh-oh.
- Sometimes, the - Mom? Dad? Are we still talking about the birds and the bees? [both chuckle.]
[laugh track.]
[cheers and applause.]
Okay, fine, go ahead, tell me.
Okay, here we go, man.
So picture this.
All of a sudden, a cute, little unicorn drops in out of the sky onto this little cliff, and he's standing on the edge, terrified.
The only way out is through this chainsaw pit with swords and knives and blades swinging all around, so he sucks it up like a true unicorn man would, he jumps over the chainsaws, finally makes it to the other side.
Clear out of nowhere comes this Viking son of a bitch, and kicks him off the cliff, and he falls down into the spikes, dead meat, guts all over.
Poor unicorn.
That is the absolute worst idea ever.
It would never get made.
That show would never get made.
[death metal screaming.]
# The last dead unicorn! # [grunts.]
[screams.]
