My Legendary Girlfriend

In 2004 my bro and me made a short film but never completed it. I decided to take the footage and re-cut it around a track I wrote to fit the story of the film. It kinda makes a music video but i prefer to think of it as a story narrated with musical poetry - if that makes sense!? I know I'm no rapper but this is very much a primitive version of what I would like it to be, as always it was made with no budget and very little equipment so I'm pretty pleased with the overall result! Hope you like it too!!

The snake and the bunny

Once upon a time, in a nice little forest, there lived an orphaned
bunny and an orphaned snake. By a surprising coincidence, both were
blind from birth. One day, the bunny was hopping through the forest,
and the snake was slithering through the forest, when the bunny
tripped over the snake and fell down.



This, of course, knocked the snake about quite a bit. “Oh, my,” said
the bunny, “I’m terribly sorry. I didn’t mean to hurt you. I’ve been
blind since birth, so, I can’t see where I’m going. In fact, since
I’m also an orphan, I don’t even know what I am.”


It’s quite ok,” replied the snake. “Actually, my story is as yours. I
too have been blind since birth, and also never knew my mother. Tell
you what, maybe I could slither all over you, and work out what you
are so at least you’ll have that going for you.”


“Oh, that would be wonderful” replied the bunny. So the snake
slithered all over the bunny, and said, “Well, you’re covered with
soft fur, you have really long ears, your nose twitches, and you have
a soft cottony tail. I’d say that you must be a bunny rabbit.”


Oh, thank you, thank you,” cried the bunny, in obvious excitement.
The bunny suggested to the snake, “Maybe I could feel you all over
with my paw, and help you the same way that you’ve helped me.” So the
bunny felt the snake all over, and remarked, “Well, you’re smooth and
slippery, and you have a forked tongue, no backbone and no balls. I’d
say you must be either a team leader, supervisor or possibly someone
in senior management

Tony vs. Paul

A stop motion battle between two friends turned enemies.


Thanks for all the super nice comments! And since some questions keeps coming up, i thought I'd answer them. The video took two months to shoot and edit, and I edited it in Final Cut Pro. Nothing in the video is "fake" and we definitely didn't use any green screens or after effects or anything. I really am responding to every message, but it appears as if half of them arent going through. Sorry!

So much for your canoe

A frenchman, an Englishman, and a New Yorker are captured by cannibals.
The chief cannibal comes to them and says, "The bad news is that now that
we've caught you, we're going to kill you, put you in a pot, cook you, eat
you, and then use your skins to build a canoe. The good news is that you
get to choose how you die."



The Frenchman says, "I take ze sword." The chief gives him a sword, he
says, "Vive la France!" and runs himself through.


The Englishman says, "Right--a pistol for me, please." The chief gives him
a pistol, he points it at his head, says, "God save the queen!" and blows
his brains out.


The New Yorker says, "Gimme a fork." The chief is puzzled, but he shrugs
and gives him a fork. The New Yorker takes the fork and starts jabbing
himself all over-the stomach, the sides, the chest, everywhere. There's
blood gushing out all over, it's horrible!


The chief is appalled, and asks, "My god almighty, what are you doing?"

The New Yorker gives him the finger and says, "So much for your canoe!"

I LIKE THIS F***ING PLACE ALREADY

One day a nun was fishing and caught a huge, strange looking fish.
A man was walking by and said, "WOW!! What a nice Gauddam Fish!" The
sister said, "Sir, you shouldn't use God's name in vain." The man said,
"But that's the SPECIES of the fish --- a Gauddam Fish." The sister said,
"Oh, ok."


The Sister took the fish back home and said, "Mother Superior,
look at the Gauddam Fish I caught." Shocked, the Mother Superior said,
"Sister, you know better than that." The nun said, "That's the species of
it --- a Gauddam Fish." So the Mother Superior said, "Well, give me the
Gauddam Fish and I'll clean it."



While she was cleaning the fish, Monsignor walked in and Mother
Superior said, "Monsignor, look at the Gauddam Fish that the sister
caught." Nearly fainting, Monsignor said, "Mother Superior, you shouldn"t
talk like that!" Mother Superior said, "But that's the species of it ---
a Gauddam Fish." Monsignor said, "Well give me the Gauddam Fish and I'll
cook it."


That evening at supper there was a new priest at the table, and he
said, "Wow, what a nice fish." In reply, the sister said, "Thank-you, I
caught the Gauddam Fish." And Mother Superior said, "I cleaned the Gauddam
Fish." And Monsignor said, "I cooked the Gauddam Fish."


The priest looked around in disbelief, quite shocked, and said...

"I LIKE THIS F***ING PLACE ALREADY!"

Need that job? Just send this one back

Dear Mr. xyz,

Thank you for your letter of February 17th. After careful
consideration I regret to inform you that I am unable to
accept your refusal to offer me employment with your company.


This year I have been particularly fortunate in receiving an
unusually large number of rejection letters. With such a
varied and promising field of candidates it is impossible
for me to accept all refusals.



Despite your company's outstanding qualifications and
previous experience in rejecting applicants, I find that
your rejection does not meet my needs at this time.
Therefore I will initiate employment with your firm
immediately following graduation. I look forward to seeing
you then.

Sincerely,

You will really love this conversation

While crossing the US-Mexican border on his bicycle, the man was stopped
by a guard who pointed to twosacks the man had on his shoulders.
"What's in the bags?"


"Sand,"said the cyclist.
"Get them off - we'll take a look," said the guard.


The Cyclist did as he was told, emptied the bags, and proving they contained
nothing but sand, reloaded the bags, put them on his shoulders and continued
across the border.



Two weeks later, the samething happened. Again the guard demanded to see the
two bags, whichagain contained nothing but sand. This went on every week for
six months, until one day the cyclist with the sand bags failed to appear. A
few days later, the gaurd happened to meet the cyclist downtown. "Say friend,
you sure had us crazy", said the gaurd.


"We knew you were smuggling something across the border. I won't say a
word - but what is it you were smuggling?"


"Bicycles!"

Looking for day off

So you want the day off. Let's take a look what you are asking for.


There are 365 days per year available for work. There are 52 weeks per
year in which you already have two days off per week leaving 261 days
available for work.



Since you spend 16 hours each day away from work, you
have used up 170 days, leaving only 91 days available. You spend 30
minutes each day on coffee break that accounts for 23 days each year,
leaving only 68 days available.


With a one hour lunch period each day,
you have used up another 46 days, leaving only 22 days available for
work. You normally spend 2 days per year on sick leave. This leaves you
only 20 days available for work. We are off for 5 holidays per year, so
your available working time is down to 15 days.


We generously give you a
14-day vacation per year that leaves only 1 day available for work, and
I'll be damned if you're going to take that day off!

Two doctors opening their office in a small town

Two doctors opened an office in a small town and put up a sign
reading “Dr. Smith and Dr. Jones, Psychiatry and Proctology.” The
town council was not happy with the sign,



so the doctors changed it
to “Hysterias and Posteriors.” This was not acceptable either, so in
an effort to satisfy the council they changed the sign to “Schizoids
and Hemorrhoids.” No go. Next, they tried “Catatonics and
High Colonics.” Thumbs down again.


Then came “Manic Depressives and
Anal Retentives.” Still not good. Another attempt resulted in “Minds
and Behinds.” Unacceptable again. So they tried “Lost Souls and Ass
Holes.” No way. “Analysis and Anal Cysts?” Nope. “Nuts and Butts?”
Uh-uh. “Freaks and Cheeks?” Still no go. “Loons and Moons?” Forget
it.


Almost at their wit’s end, the doctors finally came up with:
“Dr. Smith and Dr. Jones, Odds and Ends.” The town council loved it,
and finally everybody was happy.

Mathematical love

My Dear Love,


Yesterday, I was passing by your rectangular house in trigonometric lane. There I saw you with your cute circular face, conical nose and spherical eyes, standing in your triangular garden.


Before seeing you, my heart was a null set, but when a vector of magnitude (likeness) from your eyes at a deviation of theta radians made a tangent to my heart, it differentiated.



My love for you is a quadratic equation with real roots, which only you can solve by making good binary relation with me. The cosine of my love for you extends to infinity. I promise that I should not resolve you into partial functions but if I do so, you can integrate me by applying the limits from zero to infinity.


You are as essential to me as an element to a set. The geometry of my life revolves around your acute personality. My love, if you do not meet me at parabola restaurant on date 10 at sunset, when the sun is making an angle of 160 degrees, my heart would be like a solved polynomial of degree 10.


With love from your higher order derivatives of maxima and minima, of an unknown function.
