Our friend Fred Armisen has issued a challenge to the internet:

Be Serious for 30 Seconds.

Fred is asking people to make a 30 second video and follow strict rules:

Rule 1: It has to be serious.
Rule 2: It has to be 30 seconds or less
Rule 3: No more than 2 people in it
Rule 4: At least 1 5 second dramatic pause
Rule 5: At least 1 cutaway to an object
Rule 6: Do your best acting
Rule 7: It needs to have a door slamming

Are you going to make one? Do you even have a door? What if your best acting is still pretty bad? Will someone at My Damn Channel make one? Should we have said spoiler alert before we asked that? So many questions.

Hey guys, it's June and for me that can mean only one thing: cute girls in skimpy clothing in New York City! HURRAY! Here are two girls I just happen to be in love with:

1. Garfunkel and Oates put out this awesome new video about the differences between being 29 and 31, respectively. I'm not anywhere near those ages yet (thank god I'm not old) but I don't care what age I am, because I would LOVE to see Garfunkel and Oates in June. (Or any other month.)

2. Speaking of women-- which I love to do--The Huffington Post just released a list of 18 funny women to follow on Twitter, including Retta and Sarah Silverman. Do you follow them?

3. How about Louis C.K., Jerry Seinfeld and Marc Maron-- do you follow them? Seinfeld will possibly (hopefully!) appear on an episode of Louie this season. That's great news, considering they already announced that Marc Maron will appear on an upcoming episode as well. Comedy Nerd Heaven!

4. Speaking of collaborations... do you guys like hip hop? How about Neutral Milk Hotel? How about when people mix two wonderful things together? Then you'll love "In My G4 Over Da Sea." You'll also probably love "special brownies" or maybe even the combination of eating special brownies while listening to "In My G4 Over Da Sea!" You might love EVERYTHING. In, fact, you'll love ALL THE THINGS.

5. Another thing you'll probably love is watching Beth and Grace "Be Serious for 30 Seconds," because Fred Armisen told them to.

Hope you're having a good weekend and you haven't had to eat anyone's face, heart or brain because that's just rude!

Hey, it's the weekend, everyone is partying right?

1. Jerry Seinfeld is going to bring his web series, Comedians In Cars Getting Coffee, back for another season!

2. SplitSider did a "Lost Roles Interview" with Tom Lennon, who we all know and love… obviously.

3. Quentin Tarantino did this interview where, basically, he says whatever he wants. Read it. It's incredible.

4. Jeff Ross roasted the Westboro Baptist Church in-person.

5. Conan O'Brien and Jack White sat down for some Serious Jibber Jabber.

Those were all the things that interested me this week. TWEET ME! @MrChrisDonahue

1. The derecho that hit DC and the surrounding areas knocked out Pinterest and Instagram for a while. You freaked out accordingly. The rest of the world said #FirstWorldProblems to us when we complained.

2. We all got one extra second when atomic time synchronized with solar time. Foursquare and Reddit couldn't handle it. Most of us wasted that extra second pondering the dissolution of the marriage of Katie Holmes and Tom Cruise.

3. Ted made more money than anyone expected a movie about a foul-mouthed talking bear or a movie starring Mark Wahlberg to make. Teddy Ruxpin is now looking into his options.

4. Everyone's still trying to figure out why Justice Roberts changed his vote on the ACA decision to side with the liberal court. His answer to everyone is basically, "Deal With It."

5. Fourth Of July falls smack dab in the middle of the week, meaning that we're all just pretending to be busy until the holiday, and that we'll be extra-resentful of having to return to work AFTER the holiday. So take a cue from Chris Donahue and just spend the whole week drunk*. You'll feel better.
