Is comedy central going to be putting more shows on youtube? So much better than going through the app.

I'm sad he's basically too big now to make a season 2. This show is great if anyone hasn't seen it yet. Also, you should trust my recommendation because I have very very basic bitch taste.

[music playing] OK, thanks, thanks. No, I'm OK, thank you. [phone rings] RONNY'S MOM (ON PHONE): Ronny, can you hear me? Yeah, I can hear you. Can you hear me now? Yeah, I can hear you now, I can hear you then. RONNY'S MOM (ON PHONE): Why aren't you in class? I'm walking to class right now. I just shared a list of study tips on your Facebook page. Why didn't you like it? Mom, you have to stop posting clickbait on my page. What it "clickbit?" Mom, isn't it like 6 AM in Malaysia right now? [non-english speech] I'm having a late start today. Have you been studying hard? Mom, it's the first day of school there's literally nothing to study hard. RONNY'S MOM (ON PHONE): Well, make sure you study hard because your father and I spent a lot of money to send you there. OK. And don't do drugs. RONNY: OK. You do drugs? Yeah, heroin and crystal meth everyday. Where did you learn about those drugs? Mom, look, I have to go. I'm going to be late, OK? OK. Just pick up when I call and answer my email. - Don't talk to girls. - OK. RONNY'S MOM (ON PHONE): - Don't get drunk. - OK. - OK. - Don't tip, they don't need it. OK, I got. RONNY'S MOM (ON PHONE): - Only use Chinese hairdressers. - Love you. bye. OK, bye. RONNY'S MOM (ON PHONE): Boil your water before you drink it. OK. RONNY'S MOM (ON PHONE): And if you have a cough, don't eat chicken. Mom, coughing has nothing to do with chicken. And don't get anyone pregnant. No one's getting pregnant. Yes, I know condoms are not 100% effective. Yes, I know I'm supposed to roll it all the way down the shaft. I got to go. No, I was talking to my mom. [music playing] Must be the only one here without a laptop. No, what about that guy? I'm Ronny. I'm Asher. Nice to meet you. NICK: Um, if you guys listen up. Um, my name's Nick. I'm the Activities Officer. Tonight's the first year pub night and, um, it's a great opportunity to-- to meet each other and give us some of these ones. So, anyway, so we've got the boat race, which is the drinking game that we do every year. So let me know if you want to sign up and get pumped. This guy's pumped. Good morning, everyone. And welcome to your first day of law school. Why are we here? I'm here because this is the most prestigious law school and I believe if you want to be the best, you have to learn from the best. Does anybody else want to answer my rhetorical question? Let's all have a go. You, why are you here? Is this rhetorical? PROFESSOR DALE: You tell me. I don't know. Good answer because the truth is nobody really knows anything. I'm sorry, I'm going to have to disagree. Good, I like disagreement. Go on, tell me. I just think that turning up to your first day of law school and not knowing why you're here-- that's pretty stupid. PROFESSOR DALE: How do you feel about that? He thinks you're an idiot. Well, I think it's pretty stupid to come to your first day of law school and dress like you're captaining a yacht. PROFESSOR DALE: This is excellent, conflict is very good. Which brings us to our first assignment. I want you to write a thousand words on conflict resolution, based on my book, "Shut Up and Come Get Some," which is not available in bookstores but the library does have a copy. [music playing] Hey, we should get that book. You want to team up? Sure. Hey, Ronny. I met this guy last night, he's such a hater. Hey, Elvin, right? Yeah, that's me. Someone's moving pretty fast. Pleased to meet you, too. I'm Asher. I'm-- Hello. I'm Elvin, this-- Wei Jun. This is Denedict. Denedict? Denedict. Like Dennis mixed with Benedict? Denedict. NICK: G'day, cobra's You going to sign for the boat race? I'm not here to get drunk in a bar, thank you. Aw, man. I thought you'd give a real international flavor, you know? Bunch of different cultures getting together to give us some of these ones. I won't be giving it some of those ones. I want to get that book, you coming? Hey, I'll join you guys later. Yeah, OK. We'll, leave you and Cate Blanchett to give him some nice ones, huh? OK, let's go. NICK: What about you, cobra? You like to wrap the old laughing gear around a couple of froathies? What? He means, do you drink beer? Oh, no. I don't have the liver enzymes to process alcohol. I become like a red, sweaty mess. It's a problem. Look who it is, Mr. I don't know. It's only off the boat race. Oh, no, wait let me guess. You don't know. Actually, I do know. I will not be signing up for the boat race. Good, because we'd wipe the floor with you. His family have won the drinking contest for three generations. So you come from a family of alcoholics? NICK: What's your team name? Above the Legal Limit. Was Captain Nemo and they HMS Douchebags already taken? Well, HMS refers to a Navy ship, while my family's yacht is a private vessel. So the joke's on you. Point is, even if you don't want to have a crack, just come down and have a sticky bit while we seek some peace. It'll be sick fun, bro. What? It means, you're welcome to come watch the boat race. Oh, oh, OK. Thanks. No wankers, bro. RONNY: Appreciate it. What? Means, you're welcome. OK, cool. [music playing] ASHER: This place is amazing. What, you never been in a library before? Well, my town had a library. Well, it was more of a shelf of books in the back of the pub. And if the book was overdue, you had to do a shot. That sounds like fun. Yeah, I was a big reader. So where's the law section? Let's see, law, that 340 so we have to go to the 300s. How'd you know that? When I was a kid, my mom made me memorize the entire Dewey decimal system. Whoa, nerd alert. OK, what's the number for Russian history? Russian history, that's general history of Asia, Siberia, so that's 957. We had very different childhoods. Childhoods. 372. Alright. [music playing] Should be just here, 300. Oh, oh, oh. Ronny and his girlfriend, Nicole Kidman, are going for a romantic stroll in the last section. What? No. We're just here to get a book. Good luck. Because we're here to get the book, too. Why don't we just it, photocopy it, and then we'll all have the book? Yeah. Should be right here. I've got an idea-- how about none of you get the book and all of you fail? What are you talking about? This is the only copy of that book and I'm keeping it until after the assignment is due. Why would you do that? Because I don't like you coming in here and making me look like shit. Then why are you dressed like you're in a barbershop quartet? It's called dressing for success so you should try it. You like Ben Sherman fucked The Wiggles. No, see, it's you who's fucked because if you don't have the book you can't finish the assignment. Ah! Just give us the damn book! OK, I guess we won't be using the photocopier anymore. What's going on here? This is the library, if you want to shank each other take it outside. Nice work, Ronny. You've dragged us into you're weak life and got us kicked out of library. What are you talking about? She's the one who went "Kung-Fu Hustle" on the photocopier. So what are we going to do now, huh? You're not taking us down with you. Dude, Professor Dale wrote the book. I'll just ask him for a copy. I don't care what you and Toni Collette have to do, just get that book. Why do you keep calling me the names of Australian actresses? I call you whatever I want, Rebel Wilson. Wait, aren't you from Vietnam? How do yo know so many Australian actresses anyway? I've been a huge fan since I saw "Muriel's Wedding." Oh, that is such a great film. I know. I still think it's Rachel Griffiths' best role. ASHER: She so young. ELVIN: Oh, that wedding scene is so beautiful. [knock at door] Come in. Hi, sir, I'm Ronny, from your first year class. PROFESSOR DALE: Mm-hmm, sit there I was wondering if you had a copy of your textbook. I have, Ronny. I've got loads of copies of my textbook because the academic board refused to put it on the syllabus. OK, do you mind if I just borrow a copy for the assignment? Absolutely not. Why not? Because I want you, Ronny, to find a copy for yourself. OK, I found a copy. I found like 20 copies like, right here. And you think I should just give you a copy because you've asked nicely? Yeah, that sounds pretty reasonable. Give me your hand. The law is about conflict. Is that a tattoo? Have a look at this fellow here. This fellow's got the best left kick in all of the MMA. So what does his opponent do? I don't know. Avoid his left kick? No, he breaks his left leg with his own left kick. Oh! He takes his opponent's greatest weapon and he shoves it up his ass. Do you understand? No. I want you to find your opponent's greatest weapon and turn it against him to defeat him. [cheering on tv] [music playing] Oh, hey. Did you get the book? No. What happened? I don't know. Hey hey, there. Hey, Cobra. Are you guys still interested in joining the boat race? Why are you so obsessed with signing people up to this drinking game? To be honest, we've only signed up one team. If we don't get another, we're going to have to pull up stumps. He means-- Yeah, I got that one. I thought you can help make it a real multicultural event. You know, show people that smashing beers is something that everyone can enjoy. Look, I'd love to help you meet your diversity quota but drinking games are the last thing we need right now. The other team's going to be so cut. What? The other team? NICK: Yeah, Above the Legal Limit. Really nice boys, got the family history-- Actually you know what? We will sign up for your drinking game. Really? I've got to tell the other team. No, let me tell them, please. I'm pumped, Cobra. You fully pumped? I'm moderately pumped. [music playing] ASHER: What is this place? I think it's a central hive for stuck up larva before they mature into full blown assholes. What a bunch of wankers. Is this free? [music playing] You call that a parry riposte? I thought your one two was going to end in a cha, cha, cha. I think you're lost. The accounting club is down the hall. No, I'm pretty sure I'm in the right place. This is the piece of shit club, right? What do you want, Chieng? Look, I come to offer you a deal. OK, you know that drinking game you keep talking on and on about? Yeah, the one we're going to win. Yeah, here's the thing-- you can't win if there's no one to play against because they're going to cancel the game, OK? So here's what I propose-- I'll enter a team to play against you and if we win you give us the textbook. - So if we win, what do I get? - I don't know. What do you want? Mouth surgery to-- your mouth is huge. Make him run naked. That's a grand idea. OK, you and your internationals enter the drinking game and when you lose you have to naked through Professor Dale's next lecture. Or don't you have the balls? OK, deal. I'll see you later tonight. [music playing] ASHER: OK, listen up. This is called a boat race. You drink a beer, put with the empty glass on your head, and then the next person does the same. First team to finish all four pints wins. Got it? RONNY: Got it. What if you start drinking before the other person? You'd be disqualified. What if you don't finish the beer before you put it on your head? - Disqualified. ELVIN: What if beer-- - Holy shit. You finish your beer and then the next person finishes their beer. All right? It's really not that complicated. Wei Jun, on your marks, get set, drink. ELVIN: Yeah. ASHER: Sorry, my fault. I should have said, take a deep breath before you drink and then once you start, whatever you do, don't take a second breath. This is bullshit. Holly Valens doesn't know what she's talking about. Tell me why again we do this? Believe it or not, this is actually the easiest way to get the textbook. And also, if we don't win the drinking competition we're going to have to run naked in the next lecture. So you turned us into strippers? No. We're not going to strip because we're going to win. Wei Jun, you OK? Oh, oh, it's fine. Is what happens when we drinking beer. Yeah, like I said, we don't have the liver enzymes. Guys! The key to excessive drinking is simple-- you just need to focus on something you fear and then drink to make it disappear. Right? Let's try it. Denedict, close your eyes and find your fear. [music playing] You're wearing shoes inside? Ah! Is that supposed to happen? Yes. [music playing] [growls] Yes, Denedict, very nice. All right, Elvin, your go. PROFESSOR DALE: Congratulations, Elvin. Ah! [music playing] ASHER: Nice work. All right, Wei Jun, you're up. We ran out of rice, so I got you some couscous. Ah! I don't want couscous! No one is going to give you couscous. OK, OK. You're going to be OK. You guys are all going to be OK. Let's try again. Ready, set, drink. Right on. Let's do this one more time. Enough! The drinking competition's like one hour away and these guys are getting shitfaced. OK, maybe let's leave it there. You guys have one hour to sober up. Personally, I recommend a kabob followed by a long vomit. [music playing] Hey, Cobra. You still up for giving a few of these ones. Up for it? We're here to win it. What's your team name? I don't know, guys, what's our team name? I don't give a fuck. I'll put that down for now but you might want to workshop it. [music playing] How you feeling? Not very pumped. What's wrong? What's wrong? Yesterday, I got off a plane really looking forward to studying in a new country. Now, today, to do an assignment, I have to drink beer faster than a bunch of idiots. Sounds like you need a beer. No. I don't even like the taste of beer. Fine. You just need to focus on you fear. Yeah, I tried. I can't think of anything scary enough. All right guys, it's time to get really pumped for the boat race. [cheering] Now, let's give a huge welcome to Above the Legal Limit. [cheering] [music playing] And their opponents, our very first international team, I Don't Give a Fuck. We should have workshopped that name. [music playing] I can't wait to see the shape of your balls. You got some issues, man. NICK: OK. On your marks, get set, drink! Ah! [cheering] Ah! BAR PATRONS: Chug! Chug! Chug! Chug! Chug! Chug! [cheering] Ah! [cheering] BAR PATRONS: Oh! Don't take a second breath! [slower cheering] BAR PATRONS: Chug! Chug! Chug! Chug! [music playing] Cheers, Chieng. ASHER (VOICEOVER): Focus on your fear. Ronny, don't forget to roll it all the way down the shaft. Ah! [cheering] Oh, my god! [cheering] [chanting] Guys, as your winners your team captain has earned the right to a attempt the legionnaire. Wait, what? Thank you, Aaron. The legionnaire has been attempted by some of the greatest drinkers in the history of this university, with only one fatality. What is this? Team captain, please approach. BAR PATRONS: Asians, Asians, Asians, Asians, Asians, Asians, Asians, Asians, Asians, Asians, Asians, Asians, Asians. No, I don't want to drink it. He hates beer. BAR PATRONS: Boo! No, I don't hate beer. Well, OK, actually I do hate beer. Come on, it tastes terrible. It tastes like someone drank piss, and vomited it out, and someone else ate that vomit, and pissed it out again. Like, seriously, does anyone here actually like the taste of beer? We won the boat race, what more do people want? But are you going to drink it? BAR PATRONS: Yeah! Drink, drink, drink, drink, drink, drink, drink, drink, drink, drink, drink, drink, drink, drink, drink, drink, drink, Ah! [music playing] [cheering] Oh glory, you good thing. BAR PATRON: Who-hoo! Thank you. Hey are you OK? You didn't have to drink that. ASHER: Yeah, I did. If you drank that beer, the only thing pumped right now would be your stomach. You sure you don't want to go hang out with your friends? I think I am hanging out with my friend. [phone ringing] Oh, boy. RONNY'S MOM (ON PHONE): Ronny, why haven't you called? Oh, sorry, I've been busy. Don't lie to me. I saw you drinking on your Facebook page. RONNY: You're always yelling. RONNY'S MOM (ON PHONE): I am not yelling. RONNY: Yeah, this is exactly why dad left, all right? RONNY'S MOM (ON PHONE): Your mother's talking to you. [music playing]
