Here is the first company photo I participated in a few months after getting hired in the late summer of ‘06.  My first job at CV was being the assistant to Josh and Ricky which I found out about on Craigslist (can you imagine?).  After charming the pants off of Sarah and Streeter (who I think was wearing sweat pants) I know I was on to do great things.  Working at this cool small website I had such daunting and exciting tasks like occasional answering a phone, once picking up a shirt for Josh, and taking photos of topless girls off the internet.  This skill set clearly impressed everyone and I got moved over to BustedTees within a month and have been there ever since.   For years BustedTees was a company of 3 and have since grown to a team of 7 retards and a beautiful princess.  Starting tomorrow Josh is taking BustedTees and getting the fuck away from the mother ship where we will run independently in our own space.   This is very cool, but also a little sad since for almost five years I have spent every day with my best bros.  Starting tomorrow I will no longer be friends with anyone who works at CollegeHumor.  Friendship dies once you leave the work place.  Special thanks to Sarah and Streeter for liking me enough to have me interview with Josh.  A very special thanks to Cho for once telling me I got the job because I was the best looking.

youzlookinfine: Also this was THE FIRST thing I thought of when I heard about this blog: http://borngaybornthisway.blogspot.com/ (On the back, no joke, it says she wants to grow up to be Ricky Henderson.) It hurts every time someone (dave) tells me I look like an IRL Chucky Doll.  I can’t really deny it in this photo or any other photo taken before 1999, Also, check out my sweet neck roll. DAMN.
