Looks like they were going for a dap

[@-arb-]

Tim Robinson is the most huggable man in Hollywood and he knows it.

[@MrDukeSilverr]

you could see Tim wanting to take that into a different direction with the empty battery bit but Seth was like wait my bit isnt over

[@gofannon1943]

I LOVE the way he talks, he makes so many things sound so funny. He’s one of the funniest humans, I only happened to be introduced last summer when I was staying a few days with my friend who presumed I’d obviously watched it, he popped on one episode and we literally could not stop, like we went straight through season one and so far into two, I don’t think either of us have cracked up together that hard for so long ever, it’s unreal how funny that show is and totally bonkers!

[@brookehop8]

I went as The Driving Crooner for Halloween last year. I explained the sketch a LOT that night... but the handful of people at the party with TASTE really enjoyed my costume.

@@AltusNoumena Yes-I made a car door out of a big sheet of cardboard that I fixed up with spray paint, tape, and a metal wire frame to keep the window shape intact. I used a bit of cellophane wrap to make a "window" that I stuck flat images of a hat and cigar to. I also figured out what the song was from the bit, and had that playing on my phone (in my coat pocket).

[@Tinman420]

I was at a recording of LNWSM this past December and during a brief hiatus from the show Seth walks up to the studio audience and answers a few questions. I did not know he was doing this or I would have been prepared. In immediate hindsight I wished I had asked him what one of his favorite memories with Tim Robinson was, as I’m a huge fan of ITYSL and that era of SNL. Instead, I asked Seth what his favorite movie from the passed year was and he told me he really liked that movie “BlackBerry” about those lame obsolete cell phones people used to use back in the day because he was probably one of the last people in the world to have a BlackBerry. What a waste of a question, smh. I still haven’t watched that movie although I’ve been meaning to after Seth’s answer. I was hoping he’d say Oppenheimer, because that movie was the bomb. Still love you tho, Seth.
