Fred Armisen's Guide to Dance and Self-Defense

[@redblackshirt]

What KZbin would look like in the 90's.

[@zoeoms3304]

He's my favorite individual. Ever.

[@rileyprescott1295]

Same

[@subschool5]

omg i can't breathe when i watch the tap dancing audition

[@DND09]

Round 3 killed me

[@Spaghettaboutit]

Just last night I saw Fred at a A&Q in Orange County at the Observatory and someone asked him about this. He said it was made in the 90s. -I hadn't heard about it till then, golden shit....he also said this was this first stuff that he did.

[@shufflesmcstabby]

Spaghettaboutit the work he did for HBO Go in the 90s was hilarious! Wish I could find it on you tube

[@MotiveCap]

Fred was way ahead of his time!

[@NigelThornbery]

Forreal at 3:35 the camera angle, the way he talks to the camera with the background music just feels like a modern day KZbin video.

[@mollyjenemcgrath1762]

"I am full of love I am full of food I am full of joy I am full of shit" 9.23 is the best part

[@RP-th8in]

This is the best thing i have seen in a long time!

[@mainpost4111]

"They were very gentle with me but very firm about...leaving."

[@stephanierexus5094]

"I don't want to hear any of that racist bull-shit. Cause nine times outa ten, your attackers going to be one of those dirty latinos." Hahahahaha I lost it.

[@paperbagthat]

"I've got my poet pass and I've got my tattoo, and I'm pissed off!"

[@kayisforkivlen]

Fred is perfect in every single way

[@alexjohnson111]

It's a young Candice!!

[@KypHeM]

its funny how he did the hipster routine back then "vegan recipe joke" same thing he does on on Portlandia! He was ahead of the game.

[@OhanaFilms]

I haven’t seen this is decades!!!

[@slickyjorj]

You didn't figure out this wasn't real until then? Your a real genius. Thanks for sharing that info.

[@slickyjorj]

One of the funniest people on the planet! How did he not get recognized?

[@jermed2001]

I almost passed out from laughter!

[@TheeBattyWhite]

I remember seeing the pen/gun thing on some Comedy Central special. Didn't know it was Fred. I knew right away what this was when I started watching it. I hope this got him on SNL.

[@jkotulski]

if you don't have the pen, get one from your attacker.

[@taylorangelique57]

omg the first character development of my fave from fred, the girl named regine

[@Xterminalism]

Someone likes Massive Attack's Mezzanine album.

[@TheMoni700]

I miss the 90s.

[@OhanaFilms]

It was an incredible time to be young and living in Chicago

[@conformistforever]

[@Evalover44]

No, i meant very beginning. Song that comes on right after crash definition and before he starts talking. "southside" by Moby.

[@Jim-vq9yg]

That self defense bit got dark lol

[@macuna1995]

I would seriously love to hang out with a young Fred Armisen.

[@g3rberbaby]

[@uriahfiiya]

Self defense really makes me wanna go to goodwill and buy some windbreakers

[@boxydoo22]

[@grawakendream8980]

[@studentfilmed]

Sol Rizzo For 6 long years you’ve stayed up in your bed staring at the ceiling, night after night wondering, but wonder no more my friend, as the day you have been dreaming of has arrived. The answer that you have been longing for, searching for, praying to the old God’s and the new for, is Exchange by Massive Attack

[@pocketpeople1]

I love this

[@MSpeedThree]

"one of the worst muggings in history" lmao

[@h9ooo]

Massive Attack ; ''angel'' at the beginning

[@ExclusiveLM]

......... I didn't know that Baba Boo EEE from the Howard Stern Show did self defense videos and that the assailant in the self defense videos was acted by the late singer Scott Weiland. Excellent.

[@maybetomorrow11217]

[@RootbeerAndBeans]

A lot of people say to me 'oh, he was a black guy. blacks do crime.' I don't wanna hear any of that racist bull. We don't need that. Besides if you look at the statistics, 9 times out of 10, your attacker's gonna be one of those dirty Latinos." oh my gosh, fred armisen is so funny!!

He only typed in 10 digits for his 11 digit code. FAKE!!!!

[@dvaughn1162]

That was uncomfortable as having to you watch your grandparents French kiss while your Dad watches and rubs on off. I laughed and cringed all at the same time. Fred Is so incredibly funny. He will go down as one of the best of Saturday night live!

[@Wh3nYour3Strang3]

Lot of Massive Attack going on.
