"I prune everything."

Two 30 year old guys lip syncing a conversation between two 60 year old women: "I recorded a random conversation between my mom and my aunt and we acted it out."

I don't know why but I'm loving this. They're all in for realism.

This is hilarious. I wish there were more.

"What are you guys talking about?"
"... Strawberries."

Also, Meg is not really into Nik's mom's shoes, but she doesn't seem to care. Too focused on the strawberries.

This makes me want to rewatch all of Drunk History.

I thought the one from the sidebar about switching bodies took a fantastic turn.

That's really well done. And funny.

Loved it! and plus 1 for watching the three "switch bodies" movies from the same crew.

In her body for nine months she carried you and her reward is in front of the world to have her private conversations mocked? For shame.

That was good! Watched a few others, they are all over the place. Their Occupy Wall Street one is good.

I didn't get the impression that these were secret recordings, but I guess it doesn't say either way.

Looking for something non-committal to fill the short gap between calls, was not expecting this to be as great as it is. Scruffy guy has the mannerisms down pat. Fantastic. Would watch more.

I also wondered why this was so funny. Is it that the conversation is banal? Certainly young men also have banal conversations. Is it that older women are just mock-worthy? It kind of left a bad taste in my mouth that I'm still pondering a day later. It just seemed so .... smug.

I think it would be equally funny for these guys to record their own conversations and have two middle-aged women act it out. In fact, I now demand a sequel.
