Is life a malfunction? According to science we exist due to random mutations and planetary conditions developed over billions of years. Which could be read as an accident but this movie says otherwise so by all means let’s listen to it. Also, enjoy the brownface.

The funny lady from Chuck & Buck returns to Joe & George’s screens as one hell of a mama. Real women have curves and they can also have real ballbusting mothers or whatever the female version of giving a person a hard time is. Aparte de eso, ¿esto todavía funciona?

Cold Open Lyrics

To the tune of Flagpole Sitta by Harvey Danger

Pacts are really lazy ways to

Tie together ends of a story

Deals and bets are just boring

Tropes to pull a groan out of me

Never met a teenager so

focused on just getting their dick wet

We all just got what we could get

And fought our adolescent acne

on our face

(And rarely ever won)

I watched it now I'm not well

But that's all right, I'm here to tell

Broadcasting consentless masturbation

Has to be so illegal

Despite her looking so regal

Her scholarship is lost over this

Molesting pastry in the kitchen

K I guess that joke is still funny

Cuz' Eugene Levy is lovely

And not because of Jim, Jason Biggs

Or Apple Pie

Joe watched it and he's not well

Not from the film, it’s just his health

I watched it and I'm not well

My mental health, is mental hell

Yeah, it’s a parody

But that doesn’t mean

There is no real critique

Of the original song line

‘Bout breeding people’s minds

It’s meaner than required

Back to American Pie

I’ll summarize

This movie is a textbook case of

Using all the bodily juices

To distract from abuses

Of every trope the movie could throw, into a hole

Watching bad behavior get

rewarded or forgiven’s so boring

There I said it it’s boring

It’s neither ironic, nor edgy, it’s pathetic!

Joe watched it and he's not well

Not from the film, it’s just his health

I watched it and I'm not well

My mental health, is mental hell

Does. This. Still. Work.

George was a sailor but definitely not a captain. Joe has never had grace. What does that have to do with the movie? Look up the English lyrics to La Bamba, sheesh! With that said, does this film still work or does it crash and burn? (Sorry.)

We can see into the future and because of that we know you will love this episode. It’s 1983 and Christopher Walken is starring in a story from the mind of Stephen King. So put away your crystal ball, get off the ice before it breaks and join as we butcher Edgar Allen Poe, cast shade on Isaac Asimov and enter our own personal dead zone’s all the while asking: Does This Still Work?
