A tribute to Michael Cera

(Read: John Michael Bluth from Arrested Development)

Today while browsing the internets I was Fully Pumped to see that Michael Cera has applied the bounty of his overall genius to convenient digital format.

Here, he laments the recent loss ("10:30 this morning") of his girlfriend Amy ... At an open mic night, somewhere. Pretty much the most hilarious thing I've seen in the past 22 days. (23 days ago I put my cat in a batman costume).

On a totally different note, and somewhat unrelated; here's "Balls in the Air", written by David Schwartz, which served as substitute credit music for one Arrested Development episode (304, I believe).

It's pretty much better than world peace and kittens with machine guns.

In a similar style as above, Michael and Clark perform some red-hot stand-up comedy, once again, at open mic.

Of course, like most youths his age, young Michael has a band. Uncostomarily, they don't suck. I'm actually kind of into them. But I'll listen to Slayer right after just to balance out the lack of raging.

Here they cover the song El Scorcho by Weezer. (At the same open mic night as above?) I'm pretty sure this isn't supposed to be funny, but I went for a ride on the lolercoaster anyway.

Check out The Long Goodbye Myspace page to hear more songs.

I'm not sure what the context of this is supposed to be, but it's still pretty funny.

There's more of these videos at the Clark Duke channel on Youtube and the official page of Clark and Michael (the live show, the series, etc).

I'm pretty sure none of this will be found funny, clever or interesting by any of the people who are responsible for Arrested Development's pandering third season and it's ultimate cancellation ... Mouth breathers.
