After nearly hitting a kid when he decided to run across the street, I yelled, “What’s wrong with you fucking kids?!” That’s right. You kids, as in, I am not one of them, as in, I am old.
This coupled with the fact that I “don’t get” the new MGMT song, I’m about ready to kill myself.
Party and Bullshit might be my favorite Biggie song. I was once pretty drunk at The Shortstop when this song came on and yelled to the girl I was dancing with, “This is off the Who’s the Man Soundtrack.” She gave me the most hilarious puzzled look on her face and just started dancing with someone else.
Well who’s the man now? (see what I did there…)
SIDEBAR: We need to start shooting videos like this for Blood Oath Comedy Night. Just that raw shit.
Lalita - The Love Language
Did you know this is my number one song to work out to? Did you know I work out?
Discovered via the homie Sabones.
My favorite part of the Oscars is the In Memoriam video. I’m working on my own. And by my own, I mean the actual In Memoriam that I’ll one day be in. Details to follow.
I am publicly declaring 2010 the Year of the Redhead.
Anyone have an amazing connection that can get me a Canon Rebel T2i for a good price? I’d like to get the body only and don’t care if it’s used. Been seeing it for $799 new at the cheapest. If you can hook it up for me, I’d do something awesome for you. Can’t go into too much detail because the internet can’t handle the dirty things I’m thinking of, but it will be worth it.
Any ideas?
I’ve been a huge fan of Late Night with Jimmy Fallon since it started. I know people think he stinks, but I don’t really care. He is the only one out there that’s around my age and grew up on the stuff I like. And having The Legendary Roots Crew as his house band is probably the smartest thing he could have done.
So if you know nothing about Fallon, I present this clip to you.
SIDEBAR: My long time boss and mentor was the show runner for California Dreams. We actually used to have their theme song in his documentary while they walked on the beach. No one really got it but me. Shout out to Herrmann for watching this show with me at Weinstein’s crib after many great sleepovers getting beat up by Eric and yelled at by Ralphie.
Jon Hill Fact: Doing stand-up has been a secret dream of mine since I was a little kid. When I was in 4th grade, my dad bought me old George Carlin, Eddie Murphy, Steven Wright, and Bill Cosby cassettes. Every year after that I’d ask for more tapes, and he always delivered. I’ve wanted to be a stand-up comedian ever since and finally took a Blood Oath with some awesome guys and went ahead and did it. I’m going to keep practicing (a lot) and keep getting on stage whenever I can.
So I’m posting the video, but it’s not for everyone. So if you’re an OG friend of Jon Hill, you’ll have access to the video for a bit. The password is the name of the fam, one word, all lowercase. If you don’t know what it is, you don’t get to see. It’s our little secret!
GPOYW Fat Face Jon Hill and Darth Vader Edition
SIDEBAR: Yes, I did get Lord Vader to do the Ghostface pose. Holla.
“Eleanor Rigby (Cover)” by The Four Tops
It’s posts like these that make me feel good to know and work with Mike.
Gang Starr - Militia
Damn, I hear Guru isn’t doing well. Had a heart attack and went into a coma. But apparently the surgery was a success and he’s expected to make a full recovery. I send my prayers to him. I don’t want him to be another great artist that is only appreciated after his death. He’s one of the illest ever.
This is probably my favorite Gang Starr song ever. Props to Timmy Brown for introducing me to this song and probably Gang Starr in general. Standing over you screaming What What What!
Do you like musicals? Do you like incest? Got 7 minutes? This is How Good I Could be for You, our submission to the International 48 Hour Film Festival.
Rules: 48 hours to write, shoot, and edit the film

Had a great time making it. Also really happy with the results. I got to play a shirtless yoga instructor trying to bone my roommate’s sister. Dreams really do come true.
SIDEBAR: I dare you not to get our song stuck in your head. Double dog maybe?
New Invention: The Baguette Burger
Stuffed with blue cheese, bacon, and sautéed onions.
Things to note:
1. This was my childhood. I feel bad for the kids who were born too late to expierence this.
2. This is my only knowledge of Canadians to this day.
3. My favorite part, “And currently in the ring, Ross Greeeeeeeeeeeeeenburg!”
I can’t wait for the music video I just edited to make it online. This one is pretty rad. I’ll keep you “posted.”
I’m Jon Hill. I think life is an
amazing and potentially short
experience. Enjoy it. I make films,
take photos, invent stuff, and try to make people
smile. Just live and love life
and everything will work out.
As my dad always said, "It always does."
Stop by everyday
if you want. I’ll be here.
- Jon Hill
I hope I made you smile. If I did, would you consider donating to my favorite charity?
