OT: "I'm 24" Music Video
Today is my 24th birthday, so I made a song about it:

Besides the settling down part, this song is pretty much my life.
April 12th, 2012 at 11:06 AM ^
1988? Dayum I feel old. I can remember UM games on the radio from back then.
April 12th, 2012 at 11:07 AM ^
24 is when it all changes. Horrible hangovers. A lazy metabolism. Coming to grips with real life. Despair. But at least there's good beer.

For me, these things started at 26(within the last year). At 24, I could still pull off the whole college life of operating on 4 hours of sleep and hanging out with college-aged girls. Now, the hangovers are getting worse and the conversations with younger girls are centered around work and other obnoxious "more mature" topics. I wouldn't say I've changed a whole lot, but the people around me have.
I guess it's probably time to move to a bigger city.....

God dammit.....
The only good thing is you develop a taste for expensive beer and whiskey, but you actually have the money to pay for them.
im 23... but born in 88... thanks for ruining my perception of getting older. :/
April 12th, 2012 at 10:48 PM ^
This is so true.
April 12th, 2012 at 11:14 AM ^
As a 25 year old: This rules...
April 12th, 2012 at 11:15 AM ^
I turn 24 next week, and I'm not looking forward to it at all. Great job on the video though.
April 12th, 2012 at 11:18 AM ^
Wow, it's kind of terrifying when something hits home like that. I'm 23 and well on my way to becoming a thousandaire. Highlight of my week last week? Buying Oberon. Highlight of my week this week? Buying a Kindle Fire with an Amazon gift card and Discover cashback and looking forward to downloading Game of Thrones to it when it gets here.
Ugh, I think I'll go crawl in a hole.
April 12th, 2012 at 11:20 AM ^
At least you get a piece of that Walk of Shame Shuttle cash right?
April 12th, 2012 at 11:22 AM ^
with decent transitions. Has anyone ever told you that you look like Seth Gold from Hardcore Pawn.
April 12th, 2012 at 12:16 PM ^
I was going to say Henrik Zetterberg.
Sidenote: When I typed in Hank Zetterberg to make sure that's who I was thinking of, it of course suggested Zetterberg wife. Wow. If I were you I'd try to pull some 6th Day action and go take her out to dinner. I'm 24 as well and I would most certainly settle down with her.
Edit: Sidenote to that sidenote: Obviously after discovering Hank's wife I found myself on various hockey wag lists (worth the time) I discovered that our very own Mike Comrie is married to my childhood crush Hilary Duff. Go blue Mike, Go blue.

28 and I party.
April 12th, 2012 at 12:19 PM ^
My name's Rod and I like to party.
April 12th, 2012 at 12:44 PM ^
Man, pools are perfect for holdin' water.

I'm doing mostly freelance video work right now. I'll be going on tour with Hoodie Allen and doing his videos for his spring tour which starts in a couple of days. Hoping to find an actual writing/videomaking job within the next couple of months, but who knows.
April 12th, 2012 at 11:46 AM ^
April 12th, 2012 at 11:29 AM ^
...I graduated from UM in '88! (whole different song needed for that one)
April 12th, 2012 at 11:46 AM ^

Way to redeem yourself after "Sons and Daughters".
April 12th, 2012 at 11:37 AM ^
I turn 24 in July....and this is pretty spot on. Well done, Pat
April 12th, 2012 at 11:43 AM ^
Happy birthday, dude. I'll be 24 in about a month and a half. Not sure if I should be looking forward to it or not.
April 12th, 2012 at 12:25 PM ^
Enjoy. I wish I was still around that age. At age 30 you finally discover the beer belly that you spent the last 10+ years working on, and you actually start looking at life insurance policies and financial advising services. The highlight of my weekend? Cutting the grass and washing the vehicle, one of which is a fucking minivan. OK, end of rant, nice job. Did you do the beat too? It slaps, or goes hard or whatever the young whipper snappers say nowadays.
April 12th, 2012 at 12:34 PM ^
No, I bought the beat from someone else.
"...one of which is a fucking minivan." --> I LOL'ed
April 12th, 2012 at 12:29 PM ^
I spent my 24th birthday hungover from my wedding the night before. Also how I spent the day after my 24th birthday.
April 12th, 2012 at 12:58 PM ^
They wouldn't check mine when I was a freshman. You should feel really good about that!
Better get on the phone with Wilford Brimley....
I turn 54 tomorrow and I guarantee not one lyric will be the same when you add 30 years to the song. I guess I'm in the "I'm old, but not that old" category, since I'm not 60! Look at it this way...you will be able to shop at Whole Foods, you can buy even better beer and keep it in your own mancave beer fridge and you'll relive your days at Michigan vicariously through your children like I do.
It's probably partly due to the name, but you remind me a lot of Pat from College Humor. How you look and the type of comedy.
I'm turning 24 in like 3 months. I feel kind of old now that I'm exiting the "college aged" range
I'm 24 and just realized I suck. :( Great video though, as always.
This video is hilarous bro. I have sent this to all of my friends...well done. That must have taken you forever.
Just want to point out that I just saw this on the Tosh.0 blog and on iwastesomuchtime. Getting faaamooooous!
Given the rapid sales, among the many questions swirling onthebroadway around the making Wednesday was this: If a show is bringing in so a large amount money, why would producer want to shut it down, even for a few weeks, and lose millions.
