This year I am spicing things up by growing Habanero Chilis instead. They can reach spiciness up to 350,000 on the Scoville scale. In comparison; Tabasco measures 2,500–5,000 Scoville…

I can’t wait to secretly chop some into Sika’s lunch and then post his reaction on Youtube! I guess it’s going to look something like this:

Janne the Director took me to see it a couple of weeks ago. I did not care about a single person in the movie and I didn’t get the story line either. After twenty minutes I wanted to stand up, scream out in anger, throw my soda on the wall and organize a riot to get my money back. And my time.
Since I’m from Sweden I didn’t do that. I stayed in silence in my seat for the full 127 minutes.

I was so disappointed. Janne says he wants to make it up to me. Next week he’s taking me to see Tree of Life. Can’t wait.

Little did we know the broadcast was going to be shorter than a Sinead O’Connor marriage. Seriously, it was more fast-paced than an episode of Gilmore Girls. While trying to tweet we missed a bunch of categories. None of the important ones though. Janne the Director has explained to me what “Art Direction” is, but I still don’t get it.

Here are some of the tweets we posted:

Best directors? I thought that was the list of who died in 2011! #Oscarnoms—

It would suck if Max von Sydow lost to the fat guy from Superbad. #Oscars #2012—

Wow, not even starring in a bad movie can stop Meryl Streep from being nominated! #TheIronLady #Oscars #2012—

I think it is a sign of old age that the Academy gets @AlbertBrooks confused with Christopher Plummer.—

We also noticed a bunch of weird decisions.. No nomination for Tintin in the Animated category? That is just ignorant. And no Best Picture nomination for neither The Girl with the Dragon Tattoo nor Drive (that oversight almost made Janne the Director’s head explode..). And sadly no Best Actor nomination för Michael Fassbender in “Shame”. I say sadly because I so desperately wanted to tweet:

Michael Fassbender got a Best Actor nomination for Shame. See Mom, masturbation can lead to other things than blindness!

We might not be as famous as Ricky Gervais yet, but at least we have our very own Karl Pilkington.

Here’s the top 3 things our night on the town taught me:

1. Arriving “on time” for a party nowadays, means you have to wait an hour and a half for everyone else to get there.

2. Even though it tastes like a mouthful of salt, sea water and sand, oysters are considered a delicacy.

3. When someone says: “hey you, you look like the love child of Leonard Hofstadter and Seth Rogen!”, take it as a compliment.

I think education is a good thing, so to help Lunki out with his question I turned it over to one of my favorite improvisational comedians of all time, Greg Proops.

I sent him Lunki’s question on twitter and he replied:

So, there you go Lunki. There’s your answer. Subject closed. You’re welcome Lunki!

By the way, I think it’s so great that Mr.Proops answered, not only because I am a huge fan of his, but also because it means that I FINALLY can check him off my bingo card.

This year I have decided to change all that and I’m going to let all of you, our lovely readers, help me achieve that! Pretty please..?

In a blog post yesterday Sika compared me to Greg Proops. I know only one thing about Greg Proops, if you remove the R from his surname it becomes “Poops”. Which, even though it makes me smile, doesn’t help me at all when it comes to figuring out who he is.

Anyone that can help me out? Who the F**k is Greg Proops?

1. Thank you Ricky Gervais, you are awesome!

“He’s very racist. I mean, really nasty stuff. Also, I’ve seen him punch a little blind kitten.” Ricky Gervais introducing fellow brit Colin Firth.

2. I found it really amazing that the presenters and winners did NOT know what direction to walk on/off the stage. Every single time they tried it was chaos on the stage. If you would have released a herd of chickens on stage the percentage of chickens finding the right way off the stage would have been better. I do not know what they put in the drinks at that event but I sure wish I will get the chance to try them someday.

Hi, Sika here. I totally agree with Lunki, it was like watching a 4 hour stage production of Chicken Run.

But while I still think Ricky Gervais is awesome just as Lunki put it, I also think he wasn’t as awesome as he was last year. I’ve heard rumors some of his raunchier jokes got censored by the producers, but I’m not certain that was the case. Who cares if he didn’t truly “offend” anyone this year, he was still hilarious.

Rumors says the most offended person of the night was Gerard Butler, who allegedly threw a temper tantrum in the bathroom after experiencing technical difficulties during his award presentation. And I use the term “allegedly” very sceptical, since I read it in a Swedish newspaper, and nowadays it seems they only report rumors and celebrity gossip.. By the way, did you read that Hulk Hogan is shaving his famous mustache? I did.

One last thing about The Golden Globes, I think Rooney Mara got robbed of a statue. Just because Meryl Streep is nominated in a category there seems to be a rule that she has to be award the prize. I loved her acceptance speech, but still..

Me and Lunki have spent it working; i.e. writing on the script for our TV Pilot episode. To make the dialogue sound “more real”, we did some improvisation around the scenes, and I think it worked. I was pretty much Ryan Stiles, Colin Mochrie and Drew Carey rolled into one and Lunki was acting like Greg Proops.

We are getting together today as well, to continue working on it. We plan to finish it this week so we can send it to Swedish Television on Friday.

Personally, I think the script is turning out great, what else can you think of a script that begins with every other Swedish comedian being burned to a crisp?

But before he could even consider doing that, he was told by his personal lawyer Trevor Potter that he can’t be a candidate while at the same time keep his Super Pac. All due to the risk of him coordinating his campaign with himself…

To solve that problem, he signed over his”Colbert Super Pac” to friend and business partner Jon Stewart (who immediately got a pure cash erection).

The Colbert Super Pac was pronounced dead, but revived a second later as The Definitely NOT Coordinating with Stephen Colbert Super Pac.

And then he was ready to make a proud announcement… ..

Nation, I have a major announcement to make. For over a day now the people of South Carolina have been crying out for someone who can restore our nations former greatness to its current perfection. Well America, that someone.. ..is now..

I am proud to announce that I’m forming an exploratory committee to lay the groundwork for my possible candidacy for the President of the United States of South Carolina. I’M DOING IT!!

Hilarious. I guess we have to wait for his real announcement, but it’s going to be so much fun to follow the developments leading up to it.

Yesterday, I wrote about how T-Post somehow anticipated this and immediately backed Colbert as a presidential candidate. Today, I’m proud to announce that the entire team here at Lunki and Sika joining them as “Stephen Colbert for President” hopefuls. Well, all of us except from Johnny the Intern. Since he is a full blooded Christian he is still backing Michele Bachmann. But he is also a moron, so he hasn’t fully understood that she’s already out of the race.

Go Colbert, Socialist Sweden is behind you all the way to the White House!!

I would love to see Colbert run, and I’m not alone. Dog owner and friend of Lunki and Sika, All-in Pete does too.

So much that he through his t-shirt brand T-Post, made a t-shirt promoting the comedian for President of the United States. And since he did it back in early December, I’m suspecting he’s not only a friend and dog owner, he might be psychic too. Here’s an extract of the article they wrote accompaning the t-shirt:

“(…) we might look forward to an all comedian White House staff. Stephen Colbert as President, Seth Meyers of Saturday Night Live’s Weekend Update as Vice President, with Jon Stewart as Chief of Staff overseeing it all. And why Stephen Colbert for President? Well, I think people want a change and look forward to a Better Tomorrow. Tomorrow.”

Proof of All-in Pete’s actual psychic abilities can be seen in tonights edition of The Colbert Report.

I love this shirt. And the girl.
