I like to slip into bear caves around midnight and gently caress the carnivore inside before leaving a small cut of fresh fish and sneaking out.

"If she has a headache she's tired, if you have a headache you're gay."

Oh yeah baby, you know you like it.  Now stop crying and get in my lungs.
Boil your penis. I'm convinced that's how it happened.

"If she has a headache she's tired, if you have a headache you're gay."

Could somebody explain the second half of that statement? Were they just starved for material at that point, or has that actually been used with a straight face?

Not starved. Just trying to make a funny.  :P

 If a woman doesn't feel like sex, in popular culture, she'll say that she has a headache. A man is supposed to be eager for sex, constantly, therefore if a man tries to turn down the sexual advances of a woman, he is not actually tired and turning down sex, just sex with a woman. He must be looking for a man, obviously.

 I've heard similar things said often enough, in much the same situations as a man will proclaim that a woman in a bar that has just turned his unwanted advances down, is in fact a lesbian. Granted this sort of talk is from the lips of those who tend to use the word 'like' at least six times per sentence.

Girl: “So like, I was like all ready, and he was all like no I'm not, so I was like OMG, are you like gay or something?”
Friends: "Like, LOL."

This animation is pretty sexist. I'm surprised he didn't tag on a "Black people get BET and that's empowering their culture, we make a WET and that's white supremacy!" line.

I say 'like' a lot. It's from an inability to keep thoughts straight or be clear. :(

I tend to pause or um when I have to stop and think.  Like just has too many other connotations.

The video is fairly sexist.  It seems like the fairly pathetic rant of a conservative male with all the "liberal conspiracy" feelings in place.  Can't tell whether the video was made tongue in cheek or not.

What it struck me as was every Dichotomy of Gender Relationships line in the history of stand-up comedy.  Delivered in a very dry, passive voice with no visual impetus.  Some of the points do have a bit of honest sharpness to them, but nothing anyone who's stepped outside of their house couldn't already piece together and keep to themselves.  I don't think there was any more to it than that, no ideology or agenda or anything, just a guy who thinks he's God's gift to insight for thinking up every Ray Romano routine on his own.

And I don't think the "Gay" parts were really supposed to be anything but a running gag.

It sounded like a stealth parody to me, but I could be wrong.

Big meh, it wasn't that funny.

The animations by the clock crew tend to be notoriously off anyway.
