Assignment Two: Sean

If an alien were to land on Earth and I had to show it something to explain what Comedy Central was, I would have to start with the basics. A TV, someone funny (Chris Rock), and someone lame (Keanu Reaves). I would line them all up and proceed to kick Mr. Reaves out of there because he is the opposite of funny and should have nothing to do with comedy. I would just let Chris keep talking and talking because even if you don't understand what he is saying (assuming this alien can't speak english), his voice is funny as hell by itself. He would just be wearing a gigantic shirt with a smiley wearing shades to project happiness and laughter. Maybe the picture could be of the sun from the Raisin Bran comercial (two scoops). Chris would be listening to Tenacious D on large headphones while rollerblading down the road. With the alien in tow, Chris Rock would go to his house and watch all Mel Brooks' movies. Chris would eventually tire of the alien because he keeps asking questions and Chris can only take so much of that, and would retreat to his only friend left in his house....Kyle, Stan, Kenny, and Cartman. If they represent CC, then I could be friends with it in small burst, but they are just a bit too crazy for me.
Once the alien comes back and meets up with me again, I would send him off with two last images to remember CC by: a) Bill Murray in Caddy Shack and b) Will Ferrel in the Blue Oyster Cult SNL Clip. I would leave the web address for YouTube with it with a direct link to the clip of the monkey that smells his butt finger and falls off the tree and make sure it knows about the crazy antics South Park, the not-so-effecient police force in Reno, and that all the good news in the world is on the Daily Show. Hopefully it cold bring these images back to its home and mimic them so someday we could see what they come up with.
