snl wishes they could be this funny prepared, let alone off the cuff. nobody has perfected the art of comedic timing like zac oyama has but also, nobody could work with other comedians well as these guys do.

THE AMAZING DIGITAL CHEFS (CHEF AU) - MASTERPOST + BOUNDARIES

"Welcome to the kitchen, superstars! Here you'll learn to make the most delicious meals of the century, and appeal to our dear customers!"

We've all watched shows where chefs have contests where they try to make the most delicious and appealing meal to please their customers [or something like that] (*cough* Master Chef *cough*)... so why not take the cast of The Amazing Digital Circus and have them be chefs! That's what this AU basically is.

CHARACTER LINEUP:

CHARACTER CARDS:

SILLY STUFF:

THE LAMB SAUCE!! Drawing Dumps She Knows How to Work An Oven Character Card Template The Goober and the Stupid THE LAMB SAUCE!! Redux

COMICS & SKITS:

The Kitchen The Lament Kinger's Problem Pomni's Backstory Jax Being Jax Chitchatting Mini Comic: Pressure

Small Q&A/FAQ:

Q: Are OCs allowed? A: Very much so! Please tag me in your OC's post so I can see your work! Q: Can I make fanart? A: Why, of course! If the fanart is NSFW then use the appropriate CW/TW for your safety! Q: Can I make fanfics? A: Eeyup! Go wild with your writing skills — and PLEASE TAG ME WHEHSHHDHDJDJSJS,,, Q: Can we ship what characters we want? A: Well, where do I start... you can ship anyone with each other as long as it doesn't include either Pomni or Caine (GEHEHEHEHE SHOWTIME RGRHRHEHDHHDHD)! So Ragatha x Jax or Jax x Gangle is allowed, but not Pomni x Jax or Kinger x Caine... please keep that in mind! (Taking a cue from @/sm-baby's Carnival AU here because I am a big Showtime shipper just like them)

Feel free to ask other questions about this AU!

BIG THANK YOU TO @endomentendo FOR INSPIRING ME ON MAKING THIS AU (they made a post on AU ideas)!

Clover's older sibling, Izzy, is a recently prolific voice actor and podcaster online... they're a bit of a Gianni/SungWon type doing funny skits, and their podcast is a "true crime" podcast that is primarily a 50/50 on whether they're bullshitting the entire time I can also imagine them being a Make Some Noise contestant!

HIIIIIII

So remember when I mentioned me and @just-cain will be representing our country in an international cosplay contest..?

WE WON!!! We genuinely won first place!

Bringing Sephiroth and Genesis to life on the stage was so much fun, and we're so excited to keep going after this win!

Once we have any better pictures from the stage I'll post them but for now 👉👈

(Genuine question, would anybody want to watch the whole skit? This contest was out of the ordinary bc it allowed skits above 5 minutes minimum, and ours was almost 6 hahah)

[akkivee]

top five moments from this little drama track in my very unbiased like so objective it’s crazy y’all opinion lol

1️⃣ sasara elected to sign himself and samatoki up to perform another comedy skit together bc he’s stupid ig lmao. samatoki punches him for it tho lmao

2️⃣ all the leaders got to eat at that diner by invite basically. it’s american so the portions are HUGE and the exact conversation about this point was brought like this lol

ichiro: i’ve never seen a burger this size before!!!!! i think it’s the same size as your head kuukou

kuukou: *holds up the burger to his face* ain’t it??

ichiro: *laughs like it’s the funniest thing he’s ever seen* it’s massive bro

3️⃣ there’s a 30cm burger and the leaders decide to have an eating contest to see who can eat it fastest, and sasara gets out of it by being the commentator lmao. kuukou the foodie has quite a bit of praise for the flavour accents in burger as he’s chowing down, ramuda can barely hold the burger up lmao, and ichiro started egging samatoki on where it’s revealed that the both of them have special eating techniques. they shouted them out in sentai style complete with superhero sound effects LOL

4️⃣ jakurai, however, reveals the ultimate technique of squishing the 30cm burger down into one ☝️ cm and eats it in four bites. HES THE WINNER LMAO (and ichiro slams his fist down lamenting his defeat LOL)

5️⃣ the track ends with the leaders cleaning up the restaurant bc they ate so much food, the restaurant workers wouldn’t be able to clean up in time for their grand opening the next day lmao. kuukou and sasara were bums and weren’t helping (kuukou: they say you have to work to earn your keep, but i’ve already eaten 😈) but eventually they get chided into helping lmao. kuukou rushed forward to complete his chore with gusto but he bumps into sasara and kuukou yells at him for getting in his way lmao and sasara yells back that he’s an idiot as samatoki tells them they’re being annoying fcks and ichiro tells kuukou that was dangerous and all six of them made for an interesting group according to ramuda 🤗🤗🤗

TDA-Tsumugi Shirogane

Support me over at Patreon: www.patreon.com/skulljackxiii —————————————————

Total Dangan Action Contestant No. 13: Tsumugi Shirogane

Bio: The most obsessive participant in the group. she specializes in costume making and makeup of renown characters of pop culture, along  with vast knowledge of trivia and facts about any of those said characters. With these at hand, she becomes quite helpful for challenges when filming a skit or answering trivia is required. Though she has skills and loves making outfits of her favorite characters, she doesn't enjoy putting on any of it on herself since she's insecure about her appearance and sees herself too plain to do it.

In a general basis, Tsumugi is very docile and timid most of the time whenever someone is around, but that's a facade she constantly puts up in order to be underestimated in the game. In truth Tsumugi is quite cruel and manipulative to others as she'll use her facade to abstract information from her "friends" and use those insecurities to sabotage and doubt themselves for her own benefit. Even though she displays levels of skillful manipulation, her arrogance left her open in some cases and her true colors were briefly shown. Such as moments when her favorite shows or characters are criticized, the quiet and shy Tsumugi would stare daggers and shout outburst of anger towards the offender; but would then pull back and make an excuse soon after.

Goal: Though she openly proclaims that not much thought was put into her application for the show and simply wants to use the prize to invest more into her craft, she actually intended there for a completely different motive other than the prize. In truth she was actually the daughter to one of the executives that funds and runs the show, and her reason there is similar as to Kirumi's.

She put herself there in order to make sure that the show was running properly and even start some drama here and there in order to keep the audience invested. She was even the one that introduced the idea of putting something in the show like K1-B0 to increase viewership. In the end, she hopes that if things go well thanks to her, her father and other executives would allow her to host the next following seasons.

A thing my cosplay performance group did!!

So this actually happened a few weeks ago, but me and my group perfomed Bad End Night at Animazement’s cosplay contest this year! We worked very hard on the props to make everything functional the way it needed to be for the skit and everything went off literally perfectly, I could not be happier. I’m trying to make sure I brag about it on every social media I have, and realized I didn’t get this one yet!

I was the Rin(yellow hair+black dress+black bow!)

[starcanwrecked-confessions]

Angela Giarratana was on Thousandares as part of a skit, then Make Some Noise as a contestant, then Jon Matteson was in a Game Changer skit and a presenter on Smartypants, and now Angela is a Game Changer contestant and I'm just!!! I love Starkid and I love Dropout and I'm so excited to see this crossover happen, Jon's monsterfucking presentation was so funny and Angela on Game Changer was top tier, truly (same with Make Some Noise, of course) and I'm just!! I'm so excited! I hope we see more of them and other Starkid members on Dropout!!!

FOUR IN HAND by John Lennon

I never see anyone mention this, and honestly, we should talk about it more. John wrote this short play for the show Oh Calcutta! in 1969, a comedy revue organised by Ken Tynan. The skit is most likely inspired on The Beatles group wanks, which we all know about. Four In Hand is under the cut:

(Four chairs, backs to the audience. Facing them, a large projection screen divided into four sections, one for each chair. Three men impatiently waiting. A doorbell rings.)

1: There he is now. I told you he’d make it. (He opens the door.)

(George enters: he wears a fedora.)

1: If you’re going to join the group, George, you have to remember we always start on time.

George: Sorry I’m late, fellas.

2: We don’t like people breakin’ the rules, George.

George: I already said I’m sorry.

3: Look--We gonna talk, or we gonna jerk off?

1: Ok, let’s get started. This is your seat, George. Now this (pointing to screen) is a new kind of machine--a telepathic thought transmitter. Whatever you think about flashes on the screen. Now the rules of the game are this: all of us think of things to jerk off to--until somebody comes--and the first guy who comes has to stop everybody else from coming. Got it?

George: Got it.

1: All right. Let’s give it a try. Whatever comes to mind, George.

(1 goes to his seat. George sits between 2 and 3. Rhythmic music starts. Images start to flash rhythmically on the screens. The men’s arms start to move rhythmically in front of them. The screens facing 1, 2 and 3 show Hollywood and Playboy-type pinups. George’s screen remains blank. The rhythm builds up while screens 1, 2 and 3 are all pulsating with glamorous women. Suddenly, we hear the strains of the William Tell Overture, and during a crash of cymbals, a picture of the Lone Ranger flashes on George’s screen. All screens go blank and all four men stop masturbating.)

3: What the fuck was that?

1: What are ya tryin’ to do, George?

2 (rises, adjusting his pants): I told you not to invite outsiders.

George: I’m sorry, fellas, it’s just the first thing that came into my mind.

2: We haven’t had a vacancy in six months, George! Harvey only left because he got a divorce.

3: How’d you like a silver bullet up your ass?

1 (walking to George): You sure you’re all right, George?

George: I’m fine, thanks.

1: All right, let’s try it again.

(They all sit down again.)

1: And cut the horseshit, George.

(The music starts again and the images start to flash. They are slightly more nude than before--close shots of breasts and bottoms. By trial and error, the four screens begin to form a composite picture. George is dutifully collaborating. Finally, at the height of the rhythm, screen facing 1 shows a nude model’s head, screen facing 2 shows her breasts, screen facing 3, her legs. Pause. The recumbent image of the model is almost complete. Suddenly the strains of the William Tell Overture are heard again with another image of the Lone Ranger on George’s screen.)

George (exultantly): Aha! A-a-a-a-ah!

(He rises. His screen continues to flash the Lone Ranger. With one jabbing sweep of his arm, he flashes Lone Ranger pictures on the other screens as the music builds. As each image flashes, 1, 2 and 3 lose their concentration completely and give up the contest.)

George (turns as he goes to exit): See you next week, fellas.

1: Get the fuck outta here!!!

(Sound of four “whistling” gunshots as each remaining screen blacks out.)

I hate being one of those 'it was better back then' types but I am rewatching a bit of the Great British Bakeoff S1, and ugh, I miss this version of the show

Like, the challenges & standards are at an actual realistic level for the stated brief of 'amateur home baker', they're not being expected to have skill levels that exceeds the average professional pastry chef. The judges are nicer and more down-to-earth (even Paul!), the hosts are ACTUALLY THERE TO SUPPORT THE CONTESTANTS, not just gurn for the cameras and pop up to say weird 'silly' comments until the contestants look uncomfortable. instead of tacky costumed skits & non-sequiturs, there's an interesting segment with one of the hosts talking about the history of a baked good...

THE TECHNICAL CHALLENGE ACTUALLY GAVE THE TEMPERATURE AND BAKING TIME, not just 'figure it out lmao'

[afterthefuneral]

Alright, long story short, at work Halloween is a religious experience. Every year there is a costume contest and the competition is FIERCE. You do a catwalk in front of a panel of judges and they love it when you do a little skit. Last year some coworkers put up flyers around the building and signs advertising the characters they were dressed up as. One of the managers of my department was George McFly and put up flyers advertising a book signing he was doing, it was a huge hit. Brought the house down. I'm going as therapist Beetlejuice and plan on ripping my shirt open to have fake guts spill out. I made some flyers for me to put up. The prize is like $500 so I really want to win, or at least get top 5. My biggest competition is the janitor who has kickass costumes and has won the past 8 years.

Everyone in my company knows me as the Beetlejuice girl, and that I'm 100% butt fuck insane. Mostly, I wanted to make people laugh but now I really want to win!
