I guess if Hugh Laurie already has that job as House, a guy might as well spend the day with a camera being mean to little kids.

Wow. Just saw this on Gizmodo (and loved it) but was surprised by the comments: "didn't get it," "what's the point of this?", etc. And now, here on Metafilter, the comments are actually worse? That's a disappointing first. Did you actually watch it to the end?

This is really good. I don't get the naysayers.

There is always hope.

As long as we don't have an adorable little red-headed girl bubble...
