It's probably safe for me to post this now…my brother posted it last night, and he's the one who introduced it to me in the first place.
Many have you have probably heard of Willow Smith's new single (Will Smith's daughter). If you haven't…you're in for a…hmmm…to be honest, just one single adjective does not seem to come to mind. Probably the best way you could find out for yourself is to watch about a minute of it…that's about my threshold for pain receptors anyhow. If you watch it too long I think your eyes will burn out and your head will melt like those guys in Raiders of the Lost Ark.
Seriously…
Now that you've subjected yourself to a little bit of pain solely for research and background context, take a gander at this little gem by Jimmy Fallon…I promise that this one is brilliant.

The Message
Pin It
I found the message. I couldn’t believe it because I thought I had accidentally deleted it nearly a year ago.
The message? What was it? Well, to explain that I must take you back first…do you remember that time about 18 months ago when I told you that I was asked out for ‘dinner and a movie?’
Yeah, this is no big deal, and most certainly not an unusual thing for a girl to ask a guy out nowadays…but what if you were being asked out by a dude?
Really?
Well, because of a case of mistaken identity, what I actually had thought was my neighbor and his wife wanting to hang out, it turned out to be a prearranged meeting with the member of the same sex. My thoughts turned immediately to a revelation a friend of mine had made sometime before. She admitted that two of her gay friends at one time or another had said that both my brother and I were some ‘serious eye candy.’ It seemed that I was, yet again, bane to the curse of good looks…
What can I say? People have taste.
Unfortunately, I had also committed to this meeting before I actually knew what was going on. I wasn’t sure what I was going to do, but knew most certainly that didn’t want to go on this particular little outing.
To remedy the dilemma, I called up two of my good friends, Craig and Shayla. I explained my predicament and both were sympathetic. They agreed to meet me at Chili’s and we would turn this into a group ‘hang out’ session. I can’t tell you how grateful I was for both of these friends saving me from this particular event in my life.
To make a long story short, the guy who’d done the inviting apparently didn’t want to hang out with the three of us and opted to cut out early. Meanwhile Craig, Shayla and I had a great evening together getting dessert, heading out to listen to a friend of Shayla’s perform, checking out the newest in music and video at the local entertainment store, and planning to TP certain individual’s houses.
However, I have to admit that the climax of the whole affair didn’t come until the next day. It came in the form of the message I got from Craig. This is just another reminder of why I have some of the greatest friends that the world can supply…
Now, don't you wish that Craig was your friend, too?
