Season 13 Episode 5
"Fishsticks"
2
00:00:35,520 --> 00:00:37,111
Hey, Jimmy, what are you up to?
3
00:00:37,236 --> 00:00:41,093
Hey, Eric. I was just trying to write
some new jokes for my comedy routine.
4
00:00:41,218 --> 00:00:43,639
You wanna do something?
I wanted to hang out with Stan and Kyle,
5
00:00:43,764 --> 00:00:45,961
but they're pissed off at me,
so I hang out with you.
6
00:00:46,370 --> 00:00:49,948
Sorry, but I really need to work.
I haven't written a good joke in a week.
7
00:00:50,073 --> 00:00:52,708
Maybe I can help you. We can
totally write some stuff together.
8
00:00:52,833 --> 00:00:56,837
Well, sure. I've never tried working
with a partner, but let's give it a...
9
00:00:57,731 --> 00:00:58,936
shotsgarrooski.
10
00:00:59,061 --> 00:01:03,065
Let's see. I was working on this.
Why does a squirrel swim on its back?
11
00:01:03,733 --> 00:01:05,283
To keep his nuts dry.
12
00:01:06,954 --> 00:01:09,273
That's not that funny.
Let's try something else.
13
00:01:10,129 --> 00:01:13,131
A fireman and a Pollack
are eating marshmallows when...
14
00:01:14,356 --> 00:01:16,638
Pollacks aren't that funny.
Try something else.
15
00:01:20,721 --> 00:01:24,171
So the Pope says:
"What are you, a stinking evolutionist?"
16
00:01:28,434 --> 00:01:31,652
Here's some fruit, boys.
Better for you than potato chips.
17
00:01:32,291 --> 00:01:33,916
Look out.
There's a black widow!
18
00:01:35,925 --> 00:01:38,021
Thanks, mom!
You might have saved my life!
19
00:01:38,944 --> 00:01:41,318
If I'm trying to be creative,
I can't eat fruit.
20
00:01:41,443 --> 00:01:43,377
Doesn't your mom have
something more substantial?
21
00:01:43,502 --> 00:01:46,461
You can check the freezer. There might
be some frozen fishsticks or something.
22
00:01:46,586 --> 00:01:47,923
If you like fishsticks.
23
00:01:49,029 --> 00:01:50,838
- I like fishsticks.
- Wait a minute.
24
00:01:50,963 --> 00:01:53,404
Fishsticks.
Fishsticks...
25
00:01:53,824 --> 00:01:56,432
Oh, my God! It's so obvious!
How did I never think of it before?
26
00:01:56,557 --> 00:01:59,098
- What? You got something?
- Just run with me on this.
27
00:01:59,699 --> 00:02:01,461
Say, Eric, do you like fishsticks?
28
00:02:02,620 --> 00:02:04,637
You like putting fishsticks
in your mouth?
29
00:02:05,741 --> 00:02:07,791
Well, what are you, a gay fish?
30
00:02:09,346 --> 00:02:11,714
Fish dicks!
Dude, that's funny as shit!
31
00:02:12,277 --> 00:02:15,202
We're really onto something here.
Let's try it out on the guys.
32
00:02:21,844 --> 00:02:24,656
- There's Clyde. Do it to Clyde.
- Let's do it to Clyde.
33
00:02:26,082 --> 00:02:28,294
Check it out.
Hey there, Clyde.
34
00:02:28,544 --> 00:02:30,020
- Hey.
- What's going on?
35
00:02:30,145 --> 00:02:32,318
Eric and Jimmy came up
with the funniest joke ever!
36
00:02:32,689 --> 00:02:35,254
Say, Clyde, do you like fishsticks?
37
00:02:36,990 --> 00:02:39,049
You like to put
fishsticks in your mouth?
38
00:02:40,456 --> 00:02:42,556
What are you, Clyde, a gay fish?
39
00:02:42,855 --> 00:02:46,457
You said you like fish dicks in
your mouth, that makes you a gay fish!
40
00:02:49,843 --> 00:02:51,480
Token, got a question for you.
41
00:02:52,223 --> 00:02:55,973
- Token, do you like fishsticks?
- Fishsticks? Yeah, I guess so.
42
00:02:58,041 --> 00:03:00,428
You like putting
fishsticks in your mouth?
43
00:03:01,333 --> 00:03:03,083
What are you, a gay fish?
44
00:03:04,900 --> 00:03:08,119
Look, there's Kevin Stoley!
Kevin, do you like fishsticks?
45
00:03:10,384 --> 00:03:13,025
Hey, Mackey. Do you like fishsticks?
46
00:03:13,509 --> 00:03:15,444
Fishsticks?
Yeah, I like fishsticks, m'kay.
47
00:03:15,910 --> 00:03:19,739
- Peterson. Buying fishsticks, I see.
- Yeah, I like fishsticks.
48
00:03:19,864 --> 00:03:21,367
What are you, a gay fish?
49
00:03:23,543 --> 00:03:25,788
And now here he is, Jimmy Kimmel!
50
00:03:27,437 --> 00:03:29,270
All right,
how we all feeling tonight?
51
00:03:29,395 --> 00:03:32,426
So let me ask the guys
in the audience a question.
52
00:03:32,551 --> 00:03:34,088
Do you like fishsticks?
53
00:03:36,720 --> 00:03:37,967
What are you, gay fish?
54
00:03:42,879 --> 00:03:45,432
And so, Paul,
do you like fishsticks, Paul?
55
00:03:46,546 --> 00:03:48,519
- Sure.
- What are you, a gay fish?
56
00:03:54,970 --> 00:03:58,195
More and more Americans are eating
fishsticks. You read about this?
57
00:03:58,779 --> 00:04:01,297
Loving fishsticks.
Kind of makes me wonder, you know?
58
00:04:01,422 --> 00:04:02,658
Is everybody a gay fish?
59
00:04:10,420 --> 00:04:13,709
It is quite possibly
the funniest joke ever conceived,
60
00:04:13,834 --> 00:04:15,549
and its origin is unknown.
61
00:04:15,674 --> 00:04:19,398
The fishsticks joke crosses all borders,
all races, all ages and ethnic groups
62
00:04:19,523 --> 00:04:21,686
and is slowly uniting our country.
63
00:04:21,811 --> 00:04:25,161
In fact, the only person
who appears to not get the joke
64
00:04:25,436 --> 00:04:29,435
is rapper Kanye West, who becomes
furious when the joke is used on him.
65
00:04:30,046 --> 00:04:31,462
That is messed up!
66
00:04:31,712 --> 00:04:34,773
I am not gay, and I sure
as hell ain't no fish, all right?
67
00:04:35,462 --> 00:04:37,318
You really don't get it?
68
00:04:37,732 --> 00:04:41,516
I'm a genius, all right? I'm the most
talented musician in the world.
69
00:04:41,641 --> 00:04:44,366
If I was a homosexual or a fish,
I would know.
70
00:04:44,701 --> 00:04:45,701
You're a rapper.
71
00:04:46,876 --> 00:04:48,176
An entrepreneur.
72
00:04:49,227 --> 00:04:50,673
And you like fishsticks.
73
00:04:51,406 --> 00:04:54,544
- You're a gay fish.
- No, I'm not no gay fish.
74
00:04:54,794 --> 00:04:55,794
Just gay?
75
00:04:56,251 --> 00:04:59,006
I'm not gay and I'm not a fish. Man!
76
00:04:59,679 --> 00:05:01,926
- You are male.
- Damn right, I'm male.
77
00:05:02,413 --> 00:05:06,388
- A male that likes fish dicks.
- Yeah, I like fishsticks.
78
00:05:06,946 --> 00:05:10,225
You like to put fish dicks
in your mouth.
79
00:05:11,711 --> 00:05:12,811
You're a gay fish.
80
00:05:13,420 --> 00:05:16,036
All right, that does it.
I'm gonna kick your motherfucking ass!
81
00:05:18,660 --> 00:05:21,507
And then, it was on Leno
and Jimmy Kimmel show!
82
00:05:21,632 --> 00:05:23,697
That's our joke
on national television!
83
00:05:24,440 --> 00:05:25,491
We know, Cartman!
84
00:05:27,237 --> 00:05:29,887
We are comedy writers
and you guys aren't.
85
00:05:32,679 --> 00:05:35,703
Jimmy, I've been thinking.
We've got to patent the fishsticks joke.
86
00:05:35,828 --> 00:05:37,146
- Patent?
- Yeah, dude.
87
00:05:37,271 --> 00:05:39,604
There's lots of people out there
using our joke on their shows.
88
00:05:39,729 --> 00:05:42,106
- We should be getting compensated.
- Well, Eric,
89
00:05:42,231 --> 00:05:44,838
that's really not how jokes work.
I mean, you know.
90
00:05:44,963 --> 00:05:48,061
We should be happy that the joke
is so popular and made people laugh.
91
00:05:48,539 --> 00:05:49,552
Fuck that!
92
00:05:49,802 --> 00:05:52,434
Maybe you were writing for people's
amusement, but I don't work for free.
93
00:05:52,758 --> 00:05:55,195
I'm gonna talk to a lawyer
so we get what's coming to us.
94
00:06:00,305 --> 00:06:03,084
What part of the fishsticks joke
did Cartman write?
95
00:06:04,656 --> 00:06:07,780
Well, he didn't actually
write any of it.
96
00:06:08,400 --> 00:06:09,451
He just...
97
00:06:09,958 --> 00:06:10,982
Let me guess.
98
00:06:11,107 --> 00:06:13,998
You wrote the joke and Cartman
just laid on the couch eating Twizzlers.
99
00:06:14,711 --> 00:06:16,083
Actually, it was potato chips.
100
00:06:16,690 --> 00:06:20,379
I knew it! Don't let that fat turd walk
all over you. Stand up for yourself!
101
00:06:20,989 --> 00:06:23,376
Well, I mean, he was in the room.
102
00:06:23,811 --> 00:06:26,635
- Then just give him half.
- What?
103
00:06:27,454 --> 00:06:29,967
I like you, Jimmy.
But you're not gonna win this.
104
00:06:30,092 --> 00:06:32,433
Consider yourself lucky
he's only asking for half.
105
00:06:33,494 --> 00:06:36,562
If Cartman didn't do anything,
he doesn't deserve any of the credit.
106
00:06:37,900 --> 00:06:39,736
And if I had wheels, I'd be a wagon.
107
00:06:41,155 --> 00:06:42,458
No, dude, screw that!
108
00:06:42,583 --> 00:06:46,143
If he didn't write the joke then
don't sign any patent papers with him!
109
00:06:46,268 --> 00:06:49,324
Say: "Cartman, you didn't have anything
to do with this joke and you know it!"
110
00:06:50,792 --> 00:06:52,249
Just give him half.
111
00:06:53,997 --> 00:06:56,869
There are a lot of people out there
making up rumors about me
112
00:06:56,994 --> 00:06:58,774
that are malicious and untrue.
113
00:06:58,899 --> 00:07:02,299
But I am going to prove
once and for all I am not a fish.
114
00:07:03,049 --> 00:07:05,615
Because I am a genius,
I have ascertained
115
00:07:05,740 --> 00:07:07,634
that fish have gills.
116
00:07:09,099 --> 00:07:11,847
Doctor, do I have gills?
117
00:07:14,112 --> 00:07:15,976
He does not have gills.
118
00:07:17,197 --> 00:07:18,897
You hear that? No gills.
119
00:07:19,165 --> 00:07:20,715
So I can't be a fish.
120
00:07:20,840 --> 00:07:23,680
And I'm a genius voice
of a generation, so I'm not gay.
121
00:07:23,805 --> 00:07:26,346
So that is that.
All right, it's over.
122
00:07:26,884 --> 00:07:28,322
Now, are there any questions?
123
00:07:29,901 --> 00:07:32,618
- Do you like fishsticks?
- Love 'em.
124
00:07:33,621 --> 00:07:34,880
You're a gay fish.
125
00:07:37,662 --> 00:07:38,762
No, I'm not!
126
00:07:41,666 --> 00:07:43,342
All right. Recently...
127
00:07:43,467 --> 00:07:45,683
Recently, we've all come
to know the fishsticks joke
128
00:07:45,808 --> 00:07:48,348
as probable the funniest,
most awesome joke ever.
129
00:07:48,758 --> 00:07:50,602
But who originally came up with it?
130
00:07:50,727 --> 00:07:54,731
Here's your answer. Joining us tonight,
the brains behind the fishsticks joke,
131
00:07:55,035 --> 00:07:56,558
the one and only Carlos Mencia.
132
00:08:01,039 --> 00:08:03,438
So, you've got a show
on Comedy Central, a stand-up tour.
133
00:08:03,563 --> 00:08:06,063
Where did you have time
to come up with this classic joke?
134
00:08:06,188 --> 00:08:09,114
Well, you know, I was just kicking it
with my homies and my brain.
135
00:08:09,239 --> 00:08:11,706
My brain is always so full of ideas,
'cause I'm so funny and stuff.
136
00:08:11,831 --> 00:08:14,724
So I was all like:
"Hey, pepito, you like fishsticks?"
137
00:08:14,849 --> 00:08:17,482
And my homeboy says:
"Carlos, you know, you're so funny."
138
00:08:17,607 --> 00:08:20,415
And then it occurred to me:
"Man, you must be a gay fish, homes!"
139
00:08:23,168 --> 00:08:25,368
That's just how I came up with it!
140
00:08:29,910 --> 00:08:31,218
Motherfucker!
141
00:08:31,687 --> 00:08:33,051
Jimmy, did you see?
142
00:08:33,176 --> 00:08:35,349
Carlos Mencia is taking credit
for our joke!
143
00:08:35,474 --> 00:08:37,876
- Really?
- I told you this would happen.
144
00:08:38,001 --> 00:08:39,920
I got a lawyer to draw up
some patent papers.
145
00:08:40,045 --> 00:08:43,291
Let's sign these so that people know
that the joke belongs to you and me.
146
00:08:44,905 --> 00:08:47,776
I don't know. I really don't think
I want to sign that, very much.
147
00:08:48,249 --> 00:08:51,899
But some fat turd is taking credit
for something he didn't do!
148
00:08:53,431 --> 00:08:55,943
Well, to be perfectly frank, Eric.
149
00:08:56,494 --> 00:08:59,481
I think I came up with a little bit more
of the joke than you did.
150
00:09:00,520 --> 00:09:02,634
- What?
- You know, I mean...
151
00:09:02,759 --> 00:09:06,459
I basically wrote the thing,
and you just kind of... ate chips.
152
00:09:07,129 --> 00:09:08,540
Jimmy, that's messed up.
153
00:09:08,665 --> 00:09:11,138
We decided that day to write together.
Don't you remember?
154
00:09:13,307 --> 00:09:16,217
- Jimmy, you wanna hang out?
- Sorry, but I gotta write some jokes.
155
00:09:16,342 --> 00:09:17,661
Unless you wanna team up.
156
00:09:17,786 --> 00:09:19,909
Team up? OK.
Let's write some jokes together.
157
00:09:20,034 --> 00:09:22,766
Here's some fishsticks, guys.
Hope you like fishsticks.
158
00:09:22,891 --> 00:09:26,149
Do we like fishsticks?
What does she think we are, gay fish?
159
00:09:29,885 --> 00:09:31,581
Look out, Jimmy, it's a black widow!
160
00:09:33,050 --> 00:09:34,200
Thanks, Eric.
161
00:09:35,999 --> 00:09:37,901
Is that... how it happened?
162
00:09:38,277 --> 00:09:42,055
Exactly who came up with which part
of the joke isn't even relevant.
163
00:09:42,180 --> 00:09:43,699
We had an agreement.
164
00:09:43,824 --> 00:09:47,724
If you wanna go back on that now,
then you're no better than a Jew.
165
00:09:48,926 --> 00:09:50,745
I'm... I'm sorry?
166
00:09:51,391 --> 00:09:53,241
It's cool, man.
It's cool.
167
00:09:59,090 --> 00:10:03,062
Here he is, y'all.
Give it up for Kanye West!
168
00:10:06,940 --> 00:10:07,940
What the hell?
169
00:10:09,259 --> 00:10:10,984
Gay fish! Gay fish!
170
00:10:11,532 --> 00:10:12,832
Fuck this noise!
171
00:10:17,420 --> 00:10:19,532
It just doesn't make any sense!
172
00:10:19,657 --> 00:10:22,057
Why is everyone
calling me a gay fish?
173
00:10:22,335 --> 00:10:25,332
Kanye, we all think it would be better
if you would just drop it.
174
00:10:25,816 --> 00:10:27,960
If you don't get it,
you don't get it.
175
00:10:28,300 --> 00:10:31,029
What you mean I don't get it, House?
I'm a genius.
176
00:10:31,154 --> 00:10:33,942
I'll understand it.
I just need to break it down is all.
177
00:10:34,067 --> 00:10:36,677
Now let's see.
Something about fishsticks,
178
00:10:37,515 --> 00:10:39,015
interacting with me,
179
00:10:39,589 --> 00:10:40,989
makes me gay fish.
180
00:10:42,109 --> 00:10:44,111
- Kanye, really...
- Shut up!
181
00:10:44,678 --> 00:10:46,478
What do we know about fishsticks?
182
00:10:47,282 --> 00:10:48,582
They're breaded.
183
00:10:49,260 --> 00:10:52,106
They're fried.
They're frozen.
184
00:10:52,766 --> 00:10:55,429
Then under me, we have rapper.
185
00:10:56,180 --> 00:10:57,718
Genius.
186
00:10:58,800 --> 00:11:01,551
And gay fish are homosexual.
187
00:11:02,514 --> 00:11:03,996
They swim.
188
00:11:05,234 --> 00:11:08,143
Is it because breaded
has something to do with...
189
00:11:08,268 --> 00:11:10,544
genius, which swims?
190
00:11:10,963 --> 00:11:14,435
No, because you said you like
fish dicks. Don't you get it?
191
00:11:14,560 --> 00:11:16,675
You see, fish dicks
is a play on words.
192
00:11:17,057 --> 00:11:18,902
I don't need anybody
telling me play on words.
193
00:11:19,027 --> 00:11:22,254
I'm a motherfucking lyrical wordsmith,
motherfucking genius!
194
00:11:25,093 --> 00:11:27,017
Hey, Kyle, can I talk
to you for a second?
195
00:11:27,142 --> 00:11:28,741
Get outta here.
I'm peeing!
196
00:11:29,508 --> 00:11:32,185
It's just... I don't know
what to do about Jimmy.
197
00:11:32,310 --> 00:11:35,930
I think he might try and Jew me out
of my half of the fishsticks joke.
198
00:11:37,609 --> 00:11:40,304
I just need you to teach me
some Jew defensive moves.
199
00:11:40,429 --> 00:11:42,562
Because we really did
both come up with it.
200
00:11:44,706 --> 00:11:46,706
You know what?
I believe you.
201
00:11:47,167 --> 00:11:48,167
You do?
202
00:11:48,692 --> 00:11:51,300
I believe that you believe
you helped write that joke.
203
00:11:51,425 --> 00:11:54,071
That's how people like you work.
Your ego is so out of whack
204
00:11:54,196 --> 00:11:56,272
that it will do whatever
it can to protect itself.
205
00:11:56,397 --> 00:11:59,474
And people with messed up ego
can do these mental gymnastics
206
00:11:59,599 --> 00:12:01,290
to convince themselves
they're awesome
207
00:12:01,415 --> 00:12:03,358
when really,
they're just douche bags.
208
00:12:07,392 --> 00:12:10,908
But I'm sure I helped come up
with the joke. Didn't I?
209
00:12:13,414 --> 00:12:16,801
- Jimmy, what's up, dawg?
- Hey, Eric! Just working on some jokes.
210
00:12:16,926 --> 00:12:18,392
You wanna write some together?
211
00:12:18,517 --> 00:12:20,599
That'd be great!
I've always wanted to work with you.
212
00:12:20,724 --> 00:12:22,867
You're really funny
and you're totally not fat.
213
00:12:22,992 --> 00:12:25,996
Cool, thanks. Let's get to work.
Now, let's see.
214
00:12:26,121 --> 00:12:28,091
Something that's
a play on words. I don't know.
215
00:12:28,216 --> 00:12:31,955
- Fishsticks. You know, 'cause of dicks.
- You're really onto something there!
216
00:12:32,080 --> 00:12:35,268
Hello, Eric, have some chips,
because you're totally not fat at all.
217
00:12:35,393 --> 00:12:38,859
Thank you, Mrs. Valmer.
Let's see. The set-up could be...
218
00:12:38,984 --> 00:12:42,081
- "Do you like fishsticks?"
- Right. And then I say: "Yeah."
219
00:12:42,206 --> 00:12:44,992
So then I can say:
"What are you, a gay fish?"
220
00:12:45,553 --> 00:12:46,907
This is incredible!
221
00:12:48,088 --> 00:12:50,086
- What is that?
- It's a dragon of some kind.
222
00:12:50,211 --> 00:12:52,311
Don't worry, I can save you all!
223
00:12:57,629 --> 00:12:59,824
Hey, look, Eric killed a dragon!
224
00:12:59,949 --> 00:13:01,862
He's the most awesome kid in school!
225
00:13:01,987 --> 00:13:04,549
- And he's not fat at all!
- Thanks, you guys!
226
00:13:06,185 --> 00:13:09,121
Nope. I definitely
helped write the joke.
227
00:13:10,020 --> 00:13:12,499
All I can hope is Jimmy
doesn't try and Jew me over.
228
00:13:14,208 --> 00:13:16,566
Is it perhaps that I'm fashionable,
229
00:13:16,845 --> 00:13:18,528
and fishsticks are crunchy?
230
00:13:21,426 --> 00:13:23,760
- We found him, money!
- Found who?
231
00:13:24,209 --> 00:13:27,270
You told us to track down whoever
started the whole fishstick thang.
232
00:13:27,395 --> 00:13:29,045
We found out who, dawg.
233
00:13:30,715 --> 00:13:33,015
C'mon, man! What is this, man?
234
00:13:33,140 --> 00:13:35,439
What the fuck is going on, man?
235
00:13:36,316 --> 00:13:38,108
Fuck, man.
Kanye West!
236
00:13:38,900 --> 00:13:41,499
Oh shit, man.
OK, look it wasn't me.
237
00:13:41,624 --> 00:13:43,822
I didn't really start
the fishstick thing, all right?
238
00:13:44,343 --> 00:13:46,324
You just saying that now
'cause you're scared!
239
00:13:46,864 --> 00:13:49,563
No, man, it's true!
I stole it, man!
240
00:13:49,688 --> 00:13:52,247
I took credit for it,
'cause I'm not actually funny.
241
00:13:52,415 --> 00:13:54,950
C'mon, man.
Do you know what it's like?
242
00:13:55,075 --> 00:13:57,377
Being a comedian,
but not being funny?
243
00:13:58,016 --> 00:13:59,867
Come on, Kanye, I just take jokes
244
00:13:59,992 --> 00:14:02,883
and repackage them
with a Mexican accent, man!
245
00:14:03,320 --> 00:14:06,018
You think you can make fun of me?
I'm a genius!
246
00:14:06,143 --> 00:14:08,346
I'm the voice of a generation!
What are you?
247
00:14:08,787 --> 00:14:11,367
Nothing!
Look at me, man.
248
00:14:11,657 --> 00:14:13,730
I'm not funny, I steal jokes,
249
00:14:13,855 --> 00:14:15,681
my dick don't work, man.
250
00:14:15,806 --> 00:14:19,149
I got to piss in a plastic bag, man.
I got no dick!
251
00:14:19,689 --> 00:14:23,028
I ain't not gonna hurt you.
I pay people to do that for me.
252
00:14:23,911 --> 00:14:27,463
Oh shit, oh, no, man.
Come on, I got no dick, man.
253
00:14:34,824 --> 00:14:36,929
Now, explain it to me.
254
00:14:37,311 --> 00:14:40,040
Why do people think I'm a gay fish?
255
00:14:41,581 --> 00:14:44,394
'cause... you like fishsticks, man.
256
00:14:44,519 --> 00:14:47,429
C'mon, man.
Don't you get it? Please!
257
00:14:47,782 --> 00:14:49,133
Just get it, man!
258
00:14:49,641 --> 00:14:51,666
Why? Look at me.
Look at me!
259
00:14:52,004 --> 00:14:53,406
I love fishsticks.
260
00:14:53,531 --> 00:14:55,981
I love putting
fishsticks in my mouth.
261
00:14:59,192 --> 00:15:01,900
You're...
You're a gay fish, man!
262
00:15:05,865 --> 00:15:07,197
Thank you very much!
263
00:15:08,254 --> 00:15:12,118
About a week ago, our country
was blessed with the fishsticks joke.
264
00:15:12,243 --> 00:15:13,684
And ever since then us comedians
265
00:15:13,809 --> 00:15:15,997
have been kicking ourselves
for not thinking of it.
266
00:15:18,088 --> 00:15:22,038
But today, we have with us the true
creators of the fishsticks joke.
267
00:15:22,291 --> 00:15:24,548
Please welcome the comedy team
of Cartman and Valmer!
268
00:15:29,176 --> 00:15:30,176
Hey, guys!
269
00:15:30,598 --> 00:15:32,889
Hi, Ellen.
You guys like fishsticks?
270
00:15:34,889 --> 00:15:37,362
Thank you.
No, really. Thank you.
271
00:15:38,197 --> 00:15:39,546
So, guys, I gotta ask.
272
00:15:39,671 --> 00:15:42,732
- How did you come up with this joke?
- It was just...
273
00:15:43,195 --> 00:15:45,631
Comedy is like a game
of racquetball, you know?
274
00:15:45,756 --> 00:15:47,462
You serve,
the other person hits it back.
275
00:15:47,587 --> 00:15:49,358
It bounces off the wall,
you back-hand it.
276
00:15:49,483 --> 00:15:51,638
It goes back and forth, back and forth.
Then hopefully,
277
00:15:51,763 --> 00:15:53,618
you've got a good joke.
Thank you.
278
00:15:54,373 --> 00:15:57,793
But, guys, this joke is so perfect.
279
00:15:58,043 --> 00:15:59,749
How could nobody think of it before?
280
00:16:00,238 --> 00:16:02,404
Well, Ellen, the tru...
281
00:16:02,654 --> 00:16:05,888
Truth of the matter is that there's
never really been a team like us before.
282
00:16:06,013 --> 00:16:09,342
Let's be honest. Many people wouldn't
work with someone who's disabled.
283
00:16:09,703 --> 00:16:13,666
But I see past that. I look beyond
Jimmy's disabilities and find a bond.
284
00:16:13,791 --> 00:16:15,631
Which can unite us in comedy.
285
00:16:15,756 --> 00:16:17,767
Working with crippled people
is really important.
286
00:16:20,211 --> 00:16:21,574
That's so great.
287
00:16:21,699 --> 00:16:24,392
- And are you crying, Jimmy?
- Yes, ma'am.
288
00:16:24,642 --> 00:16:26,616
Don't cry, pal.
You're gonna get me started.
289
00:16:26,741 --> 00:16:29,484
Anyway, what was important
for us, as a team,
290
00:16:29,609 --> 00:16:32,426
was to make sure everyone knew
that we came up with the joke,
291
00:16:32,551 --> 00:16:34,242
and not Carlos butthole Mencia.
292
00:16:35,125 --> 00:16:36,580
I see.
And did you know
293
00:16:36,705 --> 00:16:39,160
that Carlos Mencia was found dead
in his house this morning
294
00:16:39,285 --> 00:16:41,684
with fishsticks stuffed down
his open neck hole?
295
00:16:43,660 --> 00:16:44,660
Excuse me?
296
00:16:47,003 --> 00:16:48,272
Get my jet ready.
297
00:16:48,397 --> 00:16:50,258
Looks like we got
another inning to play.
298
00:16:56,017 --> 00:16:57,891
Check it out. We have
offers from Van de Kamp's
299
00:16:58,059 --> 00:17:00,118
and Gorton's Fishermen
to do commercials.
300
00:17:00,565 --> 00:17:03,033
It's always been my dream
to go on a national TV show
301
00:17:03,158 --> 00:17:05,187
and talk about the craft of comedy.
302
00:17:05,610 --> 00:17:07,212
Yeah, that was cool, huh?
303
00:17:08,068 --> 00:17:11,033
Eric, there's something
I really need to know.
304
00:17:11,158 --> 00:17:14,058
- What's that?
- How do you live with yourself?
305
00:17:14,321 --> 00:17:16,973
You know you had nothing to do
with the fishsticks joke,
306
00:17:17,655 --> 00:17:19,006
but you just keep pretending.
307
00:17:19,131 --> 00:17:21,706
How do you look at yourself
in the... fucking mirror?
308
00:17:21,976 --> 00:17:23,249
That's what I want to know!
309
00:17:25,535 --> 00:17:27,212
So. Here it is.
310
00:17:27,643 --> 00:17:29,840
How do you take credit
for something you didn't do?
311
00:17:29,965 --> 00:17:31,808
That is bullcrap, and you know it!
312
00:17:31,933 --> 00:17:34,427
I had just as much to do
with the fishsticks joke as you did!
313
00:17:38,440 --> 00:17:40,725
- Dude, it's Puff Daddy!
- Tie up these motherfuckers!
314
00:17:42,953 --> 00:17:45,434
I'm gonna ask you motherfuckers
one more time.
315
00:17:45,559 --> 00:17:47,982
Why did you start
these rumors about me?
316
00:17:48,713 --> 00:17:50,642
Please! I wasn't
starting rumors about you.
317
00:17:50,767 --> 00:17:51,945
I don't even know you!
318
00:17:52,457 --> 00:17:55,740
Right. Everyone knows who I am!
I wanna know how this got started!
319
00:17:56,299 --> 00:17:58,448
We were just talking
about ideas for jokes and...
320
00:17:58,573 --> 00:18:02,287
So now it's we? A minute ago,
you said you did it all yourself!
321
00:18:02,412 --> 00:18:03,912
Well, I just... I...
322
00:18:04,994 --> 00:18:08,088
We both came up with it together.
You wanna know how it happened?
323
00:18:09,728 --> 00:18:12,635
- Hello, Jim.
- Oh, boy, it's my best pal, Eric!
324
00:18:12,760 --> 00:18:14,667
- What you up to?
- I'm trying to write jokes,
325
00:18:14,792 --> 00:18:16,595
but I'm not as funny as you,
so it's tough.
326
00:18:16,720 --> 00:18:18,432
Maybe I can help you.
We can team up!
327
00:18:18,557 --> 00:18:21,038
Really? You'd help me,
even though I'm crippled?
328
00:18:21,163 --> 00:18:22,554
You are caring and not fat.
329
00:18:22,679 --> 00:18:25,909
Let's see. How about a joke that has
something to do with fishsticks.
330
00:18:26,034 --> 00:18:28,702
You know, 'cause fishsticks
sounds like fish dicks.
331
00:18:28,827 --> 00:18:31,719
Eric Cartman, you are handsome
and not even remotely fat.
332
00:18:31,844 --> 00:18:33,981
Thanks.
So what I'm thinking is...
333
00:18:34,106 --> 00:18:36,017
Do you like fishsticks
in your mouth?
334
00:18:36,818 --> 00:18:38,018
What was that?
335
00:18:38,287 --> 00:18:40,316
Eric, you have to save us!
336
00:18:40,607 --> 00:18:42,537
An entire army of Jew robots!
337
00:18:48,652 --> 00:18:50,526
Oh, my God!
What are Jew bots doing here?
338
00:18:50,651 --> 00:18:51,651
Flame on!
339
00:18:58,016 --> 00:18:59,016
Flame off!
340
00:18:59,612 --> 00:19:01,865
You saved everyone
from the Jew bots!
341
00:19:01,990 --> 00:19:03,850
C'mon, Jimmy,
we gotta finish that joke!
342
00:19:05,360 --> 00:19:09,291
... like fishsticks in your mouth?
What are you, a gay fish? There!
343
00:19:09,416 --> 00:19:10,804
Eric! Incredible!
344
00:19:11,137 --> 00:19:14,704
Too bad I'm a dick and I'm gonna take
all the credit. Suck it, bitch.
345
00:19:15,994 --> 00:19:18,872
Dammit. I guess it really
was all me who came up with it.
346
00:19:18,997 --> 00:19:21,034
- What?
- Let Jimmy go. It's all my fault.
347
00:19:21,755 --> 00:19:23,328
Jesus. He's gonna kill you!
348
00:19:23,496 --> 00:19:26,297
You won't even admit it was just me
knowing you're gonna die?
349
00:19:27,193 --> 00:19:29,957
You really believe that you came up
with it all on your own?
350
00:19:30,428 --> 00:19:32,928
Oh, my God. Wait.
I totally get it now.
351
00:19:33,346 --> 00:19:34,923
What? I still don't get anything!
352
00:19:35,461 --> 00:19:37,106
All this time I've been mad at you,
353
00:19:37,231 --> 00:19:39,000
for trying to take
all the credit, but...
354
00:19:39,125 --> 00:19:42,857
I realize that your ego has made you
believe things happened differently.
355
00:19:42,982 --> 00:19:45,795
That's what Kyle was trying to tell me,
that you have such a huge ego
356
00:19:45,920 --> 00:19:49,118
you do these mental gymnastics
to make yourself a part of things.
357
00:19:49,533 --> 00:19:50,863
Really?
358
00:19:51,269 --> 00:19:53,994
I thought you were trying
to Jew me out of my part of the credit,
359
00:19:54,119 --> 00:19:57,529
but now I realize that some people
just have egos that are so out of whack
360
00:19:57,973 --> 00:19:59,818
that no matter what people tell them
361
00:19:59,943 --> 00:20:01,908
they can't accept
the truth of who they are.
362
00:20:02,441 --> 00:20:04,054
Jimmy, I owe you an apology.
363
00:20:04,463 --> 00:20:07,608
I realize now you can't help
believing you created the entire joke,
364
00:20:07,733 --> 00:20:10,186
because your ego
won't let you think otherwise.
365
00:20:10,311 --> 00:20:11,709
I just have to accept that.
366
00:20:12,898 --> 00:20:15,230
Thanks, Eric.
For being so understanding.
367
00:20:15,355 --> 00:20:16,480
He's right.
368
00:20:16,605 --> 00:20:19,600
For so long I've considered myself
God's gift to the world, that I...
369
00:20:19,725 --> 00:20:21,833
couldn't take it
when people made fun of me.
370
00:20:21,958 --> 00:20:23,720
But they weren't making fun of me.
371
00:20:24,110 --> 00:20:25,473
They were trying to help me.
372
00:20:26,553 --> 00:20:27,934
I understand what you did.
373
00:20:28,924 --> 00:20:31,624
Untie them, guys.
I know what I have to do.
374
00:20:35,134 --> 00:20:36,536
You sure about this?
375
00:20:36,661 --> 00:20:39,988
It's time for me to stop running.
I need to believe what people tell me.
376
00:20:41,344 --> 00:20:42,951
Let all my fans know I love 'em,
377
00:20:43,076 --> 00:20:45,618
but a gay fish just can't live
in the outside world forever.
378
00:20:46,899 --> 00:20:49,549
Don't be sad for me, guys.
I'm going home!
379
00:20:55,304 --> 00:20:58,111
I've been so lonely, girl,
I've been so sad and down
380
00:20:58,236 --> 00:21:00,763
Couldn't understand
why haters joked around
381
00:21:00,888 --> 00:21:03,558
I wanted to be free
with other creatures like me
382
00:21:03,683 --> 00:21:05,276
And now I got my wish
383
00:21:05,880 --> 00:21:08,397
'cause I know that I'm a gay fish
384
00:21:09,478 --> 00:21:11,721
Motherfuckin' gay fish
385
00:21:12,414 --> 00:21:14,527
Girl, I am a gay fish
386
00:21:15,545 --> 00:21:17,584
Makin' love to other gay fish
387
00:21:17,709 --> 00:21:20,320
All those lonely nights
at the grocery store
388
00:21:20,445 --> 00:21:23,114
In the frozen fish aisle
feeling like a whore
389
00:21:23,282 --> 00:21:25,841
'cause I wasn't being true
even though everyone said
390
00:21:25,966 --> 00:21:27,285
That I had to make a switch
391
00:21:27,936 --> 00:21:30,610
Now I know that I'm a gay fish
392
00:21:31,672 --> 00:21:33,833
Motherfuckin' gay fish
393
00:21:34,601 --> 00:21:36,502
Girl, I am a gay fish
394
00:21:36,670 --> 00:21:38,616
