Milker and I would start cutting each other off at work by saying "I know....I know" when the other one was trying to convey real information and it was the funniest thing.

It's Tom Hanks dressed in a suit with pumpkins on it lol
It was made for Halloween and is one of the VERY few modern SNL skits I honestly find funny.

Basically people are in a haunted attraction and he just shows up for some reason at random. If you've ever gone to many of those (trails, houses, hayrides, whatever) part of the humor in the dialogue is the stuff the patrons say while the scenes unfold because you've probably heard banter like it before. But in this case, absolutely none of what is going on makes any sense.

Disclaimer: I strongly recommend watching this with relatively low expectations and after semi-high alcohol intake.

Part II

Check out some stand up by Gabriel Iglesias, aka "Fluffy," specifically the topic of his son smoking marijuana for the first time and him saying "yes" on the basis that it was Snoop Dog himself that offered it to him. It's hilarious.

A couple extra thoughts about this one.

1. It is quoted almost daily in our home, particularly "Calm down, just calm down!", to the point where it takes us a moment to actually remember where it's from.
2. One of the funniest parts of this to me is that he quickly moves from making fun of him being skinny to making fun of him being fat, and then at the end, combines both insults in the same sentence.

The beginning and the end are the worst parts. But in between? /chef's kiss.

Also I only learned about this sketch from, of all things, a Skyrim video, which could almost qualify for this list on its own:

Oh, the SNL skits....yeah, I watched them......with sound.

I can see Tom Hanks building a recurring role after a few years, like the Coneheads or Toonses, maybe there's a Disney ride/ movie in the future.

Whether or not you're a cannabis enthusiast, do yourself a favor and go look up the movie "How High" starting Method Man and Red Man. It has always been up there for me.
