I made some funny!
My friends Greg and Kim are brilliant writers, and intensely creative people. I met them at ACME, where I had the pleasure of performing with them both, and writing with Kim.
They have a friend named Ponce, who has Down syndrome. Ponce is an actor and a comedian, and they worked together to come up with a series of comedic shorts they could release on YouTube. They call it Retarded Policeman, and it's really, really funny.
Greg and Kim are doing with video and sketch comedy what I'm doing with publishing: refusing to take the traditional route to reach an audience, and having a lot of fun while we do it. Greg and I have been trying to find a way to do a Mediocre Film (that's the name of his production company) together for a long time, so when Greg offered me a chance to work on Retarded Policeman, I grabbed it.
I'm sure this will offend some people, but I want to make it clear that nobody is exploiting or making fun of Ponce. If anything, it's making fun of how arbitrary and, well, retarded police stops can be. This episode makes a reference to Episode 4, which was really funny until it wasn't.

I laughed, I cried, it became a part of me.

You look very good with a beard, sir. I'm jealous.
That made me giggle a lot.
