You can watch the clip in full here.
Thanks for the link Becky - the stream I was watching cut off with commercials before the end of this.

Does anyone find it funny? "Stupid" humor has never been my thing, so I just don't find it funny at all. I know it's all about comedy, but I think it would have been better to just have Jon sing without trying to make it funny.

Meh - gotta say it doesn't do much for me either. I would rather hear Jon just sing.

Haha I'm at the other end but I love absurd things like this. The idea of Will Forte being there just to sing that one word makes me laugh like hell. I can see why people would think it's stupid for sure.

It's stupid but I found it funny! I also found it curious seeing Jon playing the first half of the wanted solo and John Shanks playing the second half.

Jon sounded somewhat encouraging. He actually nailed the "steel horse" note that one time he tried after the solo.

I usually love "asburd humor" but they're not the Monty Python or Mr. Bean. I understand the parody but I don't find the rendering funny at all... (was the beer belly showing a reference to Bruce singing with U2 Minus One?)

Now THAT is funny (IMO):



cornuto or constipated?

My sentiments exactly.I thought it was hysterical. And then Gilbert Godfried? Come on. The fact that Jon did the whole thing so straight and that Lorenza was there made it even better. Also, Jon sounded good

Thanks Becky, I thought I was the only one who didn't find it funny, just stupid.
(To each their own though.)

On the subject of Autism, imo, Autism is on a very wide spectrum, similar to ADD. I also think (unless misdiagnosed) it is genetic. It's diagnosed more now because we are more aware of it. These parents go thru hell and back. Just because you cannot see a disability on crutches, in a wheelchair, etc. does not mean it does not exist. Something I wish more of our educators would understand.

I applaud your special education work. Takes a very special person to do it and to do it well
