    They. Make. TRACTORS!

    I don't remember making this. I mean, I do now, having just watched it on YouTube; but I certainly didn't recall doing or saying anything in this video until I went on a net-quest to find out why people were emailing me and saying "They make tractors!"

    The "not-remembering" thing is becoming more prevalent though. Forgetting sketches, improvised promos like this one, bits on Stickcam during commerical breaks, sometimes entire shows... I can't help but wonder if it's the side effect of producing too much content on a daily basis. I can only assume it is, as there's no time to really catalogue, store and sift through the mountain of media Attack of the Show churns out on a regular basis; the moment something is in the can, you already need to begin work on the next piece of content.

    It's either that, or the Yaz.

    One of the two.

    (Side Note: In the past few days, I've received a handful of requests for "They make tractors" t-shirts. I'm far too lazy to dust off my Cafe Press account, but if you happen to make one, please let me know! I'd gladly rock it.)

    I think you need to remember that "druggies are for fuggies," Kevin. They mess with your mind and make you forget important things.

    See, right now you forgot your pants... DAMN IT, KEVIN!!

    Wow, those were some good times indeed, but I still don't get how you can make tractors in space. Maybe that's our future, floating tractors in space!

    Wow, though I saw the "ad" already I didn't really get it until just now after watching it for a second time...

    They DO make tractors don't they...

    Hmm didn't remember that either. What does stand out is your random "YAZ" comments. LOL, thats funny stuff.

    I watched that promo when it first aired, laughed my ass of at that line, and yet when I read the title of the post... nothing. I don't even have a busy life to chalk it up to. I don't do shit.

    Having memory problems? I heard the Mary J makes that happen, if you catch my drift.

    wink wink nudge nudge

    Are you fuckin serious Todd? You don't have shit else to do except subscribe to someones blog, and trash talk them? You're a pathetic piece of shit.

    November 25, 2008 | Unregistered CommenterToph

    Well I will try and create a They Make Tractors! T-Shirt. Simply because it would be awesome.

    November 25, 2008 | Unregistered CommenterJohn

    I think someone should make a 'Space is the final john deer' I think that was myfavorite part. But I would rock the other one too

    Kevin, I don't know what G4 is thinking but the extra weekend shows are completely unnecessary.

    November 25, 2008 | Unregistered CommenterEyes_for_Hands

    This post reminds me of Lethal Weapon, when Gary Busey is introducing torture specialist Mr Endo to Mel, and he says "Endo here has forgotten more about dispensing pain than you and I will ever know," except here it's "Mr Pereira has forgotten more about comedy than you and I will ever know."

    ahhhh man! Now I want a "They make tractors!" shirt! Somebody get on that.

    Okay, this may be a little too Star Trek-y, but try this:

    You definitely need a break, dude.

    "We had the most incredibly romantic time together. I thought we were gonna be together forever. And then...huh...oh boy...huh... about a week later, right out of the blue, she sends me a John Deer letter."


    Another play on words including John Deer? You're damn right!

    OK I got really lost with what was going on in that video.

    November 25, 2008 | Unregistered CommenterDaniel Kemp

    It's happening to me too Kevin. Although in my opinion since I don't do skits or Yaz, it's probably the psychoactive-hallucinagens. Wa waa.

    November 25, 2008 | Unregistered CommenterSanti

    someone should make a tshirt that says on the front "Space is the final john deer" (like, on the top left or right in small text) and then on the back-in big bold- "They make TRACTORS!" I would wear that!!

    November 27, 2008 | Unregistered CommenterMags

    is Yaz code for weed?

    Ok, so here's my attempt at a 'they make TRACTORS!!' shirt:

    http://www.cafepress.com/CaperGirl

    three different choices, the last one being a 'space, the final john deere' tee

    I'm new to the whole cafe press t-shirt making biz, I didn't know how fun it was to make them!
