“Handle first, handle first!” Had to show our kids the scene from Arrested Development where Gob, a little late, frantically reminds his assistant the proper way to hand over a sword to a magician. I am crying every time.

Vice Principals. It takes a special kind of comic sensibility to get you caring about the fate of two wretched and entirely incompetent school administrators vying for the top top spot.
14 - What Are You Waiting For - Disturbed
