Day One Concludes

Posted by Michael Ian Black Wednesday, April 8th, 2009

Day one of our official MMHI website has concluded and so far the results are very encouraging. Our website was already viewed more than 50,000,000 times – which makes it among the most widely viewed websites in the world. This comes as a huge surprise to us, and we are just thrilled. If just 30,000,000 out of those 50,000,000 actually watch our show, we will have the biggest hit on television. Which would be great. Because I have a pair of shoes right now where the laces are just about to break, and they're a special kind of lace that I will probably have to order online. You know what that means, right? Shipping charges. So either I pay for the shipping charges or the kids eat. I will probably go with the laces. Either way, you can see why having a hit television show would be very helpful. Also, Showalter and I are splitting the money 50/50, which doesn't seem fair considering the only family he has to support is his secret family in Thailand, and everything other there is so much cheaper than here. A lot of people over there don't even have shoelaces because they prefer open-toed sandals. Which I would wear too, but in America that's considered kind of fruity, and I already have enough people who consider me kind of fruity. Which is why I've been wearing those stupid fireman boots whose laces are about to break. Anyway, good day today.

The sad thing is that I scoffed at Rubbernecking's earlier post, as I said out loud, "Neither of them was Louie! Don't they know the difference between the Michaels and Ken Marino?!"

Immediately to follow by a huge wave of nerdification.
I blame the Michaels for influencing my tender tween sensibilities in the early 90s.

"everything OTHER there is so much cheaper than here."?

It's called proof reading. Look into it. You're prettier than that. I meant better. Same thing.

Great, now I'm trying to be funny like all these other losers. I swore I wouldn't be one of them.

Oh, Sho, I think Black already is a step ahead of you. Check your drawer….

Sneakers with velcro straps, perhaps? They're comfy and have a surprisingly handy utility. And they look totally awesome. Best of luck with the show, MIB. And the stupid fireman boots.

I guess the cat's out of the bag about Showalter's secret family. They do wear sandals, I knew it.

For some strange reason I find myself rooting for you. I'm waay to lazy to do the easy internet search and find out for sure but I'm pretty sure that when I was in high school one you guys found great pleasure in dipping your balls in stuff. Hope it all worked out for you. I'll watch the show and probably laugh. Best of luck.

Sometimes when I read your thoughts, I think of how great of friends we would be. We would be the greatest of friends, (like nickname friends).
Anyway, really looking forward to the show. I will be one of the hopeful 30 million.
