    to draw from so much stupid shit in his head as inspiration to make jokes and be quirky. As a result he is fucken hilarious. But let’s imagine a different Chris, let’s say instead of cartoons and stupid shit, his information diet was stocks and investing advice. And for 5 years that’s all he consumed. Do you think he’d be just as funny as he currently is? No. He in my opinion wouldn’t even be 20% as funny. If you’re a writer or director you really need to monitor and perfect your information diet. If your diet is not correct, you won’t have a good pulse on culture. I don’t want you to be a chris, in fact, I think that would probably do you harm. Talent needs to inhale cartoons so they can be funny, writers need to inhale inspiration. Let’s say there is a purple fruit in the middle of Australia that when eaten makes you 2 feet taller. If it truly did exist, you wouldn’t have known that until just right now. But now that you know of it, you can draw on it for inspiration for every piece of content you write going forward. That’s beautiful, it can now sit in the back of your mind waiting for that one video where it is needed. It might take 10 videos or even 100 but eventually you’ll be brainstorming a bit and think of the right one to use the fruit for. Apply this to everything on this fucken planet. You. Can’t. Get. Inspired. By. Things. You. Don’t. Know. Exist. So how do you learn more about what’s out there in the world? How do you stay up to date on the latest memes? How do you know what’s going on with celebrities? What’s trending on youtube? What other creators are doing? What’s popping on tik tok? Your information diet. Consume things on a daily basis that help you write better content.

    It’s okay for the boys to be childish

    If talent wants to draw a dick on the white board in the video or do something stupid, let them. (assuming they know all the risks and arn’t missing context on why it’s not safe) People like when we are in our natural element of stupidity. Really do everything you can to empower the boys when filming and help them make content. Help them be idiots

    We don’t fake things

    Make sure to prep contestants and try to create an environment where they feel comfortable talking.

    The image shows “Squidward” on the left looking down on his neighbours, SpongeBob and Patrick.

    Squidward is an older grumpy character who takes things seriously.

    SpongeBob and Patrick are two idiots that run around having fun in whatever they do.

    Squidward is constantly annoyed with their carefree attitude and their antics.


  • Adding onto this, the reason they press charges against the money instead of you is that, in the US, you would be innocent until proven guilty. They get around this by “charging the money” instead in which case it can be considered “guilty” until proven innocent.

    What happens next is that you would have to sue them to prove the money/property innocent in court to get it back. Additionally you can’t sue and recover legal fees. So, if they only confiscated a few thousand dollars, you would likely spend more money trying to win in court than you would get awarded in the end.

    It’s also worth noting, there’s an incentive for the TSA to tip off DEA agents to sieze the cash because the DEA will then share some of the money back to the TSA. Likewise for local/state police, even if they can’t sieze it under local laws, they can sieze it for some federal law and then the cash will be split between the law enforcement agency that siezed it and some federal agency.
