Ah, someone remembers this from YTMND. Take my upvote.

As Soon as I clicked on this link "Dance (A$$)" by Big Sean came on Pandora and it was all perfect!

that song sucks dick.............DOWNVOTE FOR YOU

[–]tommytheREDranger 5 points6 points ago*

This makes me crave for Stephen Colbert's ice cream.

[–]gunluva 5 points6 points ago

Can't find that stuff anywhere. Which depresses me. Well, the local H-E-B had some, but only the tiny containers that hold two spoonfuls.

[–]tommytheREDranger 2 points3 points ago

I can buy them from walgreen, and yea... they're one pint.

[–]gunluva 1 point2 points ago

Really? Shoot, I've gotta storm the Walgreens.

[–]gunluva 0 points1 point ago

They have it! Thanks so much for the heads-up!

[–]aedile 1 point2 points ago

Heh... people outside of Texas and North Mexico have no idea what H-E-B is. This messed with my head the first time I traveled outside the area.

[–]riotingchimps 2 points3 points ago

Nice try, Stephen

[–]insideoutduck 15 points16 points ago

What's this from? It's rather amusing.

[–]adamepidemic 22 points23 points ago

Colbert Report when he interviews Barney Frank.. I think

[–]ruddelsticks 29 points30 points ago*

It IS Stephen Colbert, but I never saw it on the Colbert Report (except as a short clip somewhat recently when he was talking about Barney Frank), but it is not from the Barney Frank interview. I searched and searched for info on this clip because I thought it was hilarious and wanted to see more, but no luck. It could be from the Daily Show, he looks really young here.

Edit: Wow. DAE hate and love it when the first time you looked for something, you spent hours googling and had no luck, but the second time you looked for it (usually months or even years later) you find it in under a minute?

[–]AdonisBucklar 11 points12 points ago

It was from one of his first episodes 'Meet a Districts', yea. You think that one was tough? Try finding the clip where he interviews Paul McCartney.

Something tells me the Beatles' lawyers got involved with that one.

[–]Dstrd 4 points5 points ago

You mean this? Took one googlesearch for "stephen colbert paul mccartney".

[–]ruddelsticks 10 points11 points ago

AdonisBucklar is currently experiencing the bittersweet feeling I was describing.

[–]Dstrd 1 point2 points ago

Yeah, I know that feeling all too well.

[–]wildfyr 1 point2 points ago

this interview is amazing too, i wish they hadn't tried to hard to get rid of it. its not even insulting to sir paul

[–]mecharedneck 0 points1 point ago

I'd never seen it until now. It's a great reminder of how funny those guys were. Hard Days Night was one of my favorite movies.

[–]traken 0 points1 point ago

The music makes it so much better.

[–]resolutionz 0 points1 point ago

Does anyone have a mirror for this?

[–]WendyLRogers3 0 points1 point ago

Frank is probably used to people spontaneously breaking out into Broadway show tunes and dances while standing next to him.

[–]Nickster93 -2 points-1 points ago*

I once saw Barney Frank by an elevator in the congressional office. I said out loud, "Is that Barney Frank?" and he covered his face with a newspaper. So I assume it was him. I also saw Newt G. at security at an airport, but I mean, he did dump his wife after he learned that she had cancer so... SWELL GUY =.= Too bad I didn't see a cool senator like Leberman from CT.

Edit: hey down voter, I have a photo of Newt G. going through airport security want me to post it? I don't lie about such things. My family was dropping my brother off at the airport so he could go back to college after visiting us.

[–]DaCeph 0 points1 point ago

Indeed

[–]spruce_goose 5 points6 points ago

that's so me when I'm walking with my boss. classic me.

[–]stanfan114 1 point2 points ago

I love Colbert but he does way too much blow.

[–]SrirachaSauceMan 1 point2 points ago

This shit is reposted like every other week. But goddamn, it's still funny.

[–][deleted] 2 points3 points ago

While mouthing the words 'Why did you hire me? I wouldn't hire me.'

[–]toWhomtoWhichtoWhat 1 point2 points ago

I don't know if you intended me to read that in Buffalo Bill's voice, but I totally did.

[–]dodecahedonist 1 point2 points ago

Would you hire me? I'd fuck me. I'd fuck me so hard.

[–]skinheaddrone 3 points4 points ago

Where is that repost bot when you need him?

[–]missphoenix 0 points1 point ago

This went along surprisingly well with my music.

[–]hdcs 0 points1 point ago

Someday I want to be one of the voices in Colbert's head. It's likely a very awesome party roaring in there.

[–]kconnors 0 points1 point ago

and later he was shown the CCTV recording

[–]divinesleeper 0 points1 point ago

And then the awkward moment when you find out about the security cameras.

[–]acyanopsia 0 points1 point ago

His handwaving is syncing up uncannily well with the electronica I'm currently listening to . . .

[–]ExtraDip 0 points1 point ago

My boss was a dick, my only chance of freedom was when she turned her back

[–]Fingaz279 0 points1 point ago

Thank you for posting this, I've been trying to find it for a while. Next step is to learn it use it in the hallways to confuse people.

[–]Ihavetheinternets 0 points1 point ago

This has to be the most reused gif and title on reddit. I've seen it literally hundreds of times with the same title.

[–]no_thks_havin_butter 0 points1 point ago

I watched that for faaaaaaar too long.

[–]happyCuddleTime 0 points1 point ago

Yeah, you never do that.

[–]ttblue 0 points1 point ago

I've seen this so many times but it gets funnier every time :D Upvote for you, again.

[–]CallingOutUrReposts -2 points-1 points ago

Bet you can't guess why i'm here.

[–][deleted] 3 points4 points ago

Well, see your name would be incorrect as I have only posted this once, that being this time. So your name "CallingOutUrReposts" would be incorrect as I haven't reposted my own link. "CallingOutReposts" would be a better name, and correct.

[–]CallingOutUrReposts -1 points0 points ago

The name doesn't imply that you where the OP, or that i only call out people who re-post their own material. You are the poster of this re-post regardless which makes it your re-post. I do suppose i could see how one might take my name that way especially when being called out. Anyways my name is correct and you have now been corrected. Have a nice day.

[–]JudgeHolden -1 points0 points ago

You don't need to make it a conditional statement. Writing "Every time my boss turned his back" would have been perfectly acceptable and even preferable because simpler. Just a friendly piece of advice.

[–]PerpetualRain -1 points0 points ago

[–]Sorkijan -2 points-1 points ago

It is from the Daily Show.

[–]RNRSaturday -1 points0 points ago

Definitely Barney Frank, and they are walking by the elevator banks in the Rayburn House Office Building, across the street from the Capitol in DC. Don't know who the guy on the right is, though. (Ha, ha, ha...)
