That’s right!
As you may know, Chunk o’ Paper is returning this summer in full force and we are ready to entertain. However, the old team is somewhat scattered this year and we’ve been left a little shorthanded.
So if you’ve ever wanted to be part of a Chunk o’ Paper video, now is your chance! So if you think you’re funny or can even just keep a straight face while on camera, we want you. We’re looking mainly for actors, but if you’re a little camera-shy we’d love to have some help with our behind-the-scenes stuff.
Anybody in the North Bay Area this summer is welcome to join the cause, so let us know!
Chunk o’ Paper Wants You!
Rant 13 – Mack On This
Whoa, did you see that? Out of nowhere, it’s Chunk o’ Paper!
That’s right, year one of college is over and now I’m left with nothing better to do.
In all seriousness though, I know you guys have been asking for new content for months, and we are back to deliver.
So don’t change that dial, because the Chunk is forever.
-Nate Mac
Oh lord, it’s been so long.
So yeah, last post was in July, and that wasn’t even a real one. And now August is almost over. I know this doesn’t really count, but I need to assuage my conscience, so without further ado, here’s this.
Because at Chunk o’ Paper, we care.

Make sure to watch in HD!
So here’s a little video we shot a while ago, although the editing may have taken more time than we liked (Here’s looking at you, Shanky). And aside from the little audio mishaps, I’d say it turned out alright.
And viewers, please note that I’m not this much of a jerk in real life.
Special thanks to our actress, Alex Wallace, for putting up with our crazy schedules and such. Thanks to Mad Money (I guess) for sitting there, Chris Guempel for letting us use his camera, and of course Shanky (Elliot Davoren) for cinematography and editing.
Edit: If you can’t hear all the lines, be sure to check out the pre-filming rehearsal.

I’m tired, just pretend I wrote a witty and lengthy description here.

I would recommend watching this one in glorious HD.
So you may feel like you’re experiencing some extreme déjà vu right now, and you’re thinking “I’ve totally seen this before.” Well that’s because you have. Yep, this is a remake of our unofficial “first skit,” cell phone. Why did we do this? Because that one was total crap, and we’re not afraid to admit it (However, the original “Cell Phone” skit will never, ever be mentioned again. Capisce?). So here, fresh off the editing room floor, a brand new iteration, and a skit actually worth watching.

Remember last time you watched of video of Matt in pain? Yeah, you enjoyed that didn’t you. Don’t deny it. You may be one of those folks that thinks that nobody should have to suffer, that fighting is not the answer. But even you probably chuckled when you saw Matt getting barraged with a spray of plastic pellets. Yeah, you know who you are, and just for you we’ve got another excursion into the world of Matt getting hurt.

In my preparations for my travels, I’ve been pretty hard-pressed to try to get some original stuff up here, and frankly I don’t think it’s going to happen (we’ll see though, it’s still April 9th while I’m writing this). Anyway, about the video: This was filmed a little while ago, it’s Mad Money and me dancing in his car in the parking lot of an Ihop at around 11:30 in the evening. Those of you who are part of our Facebook group have probably already seen this video, so I apologise for that. As for the rest of you, kick back, relax, and watch us do crazy things.

This is an interesting little number that I thought deserved to go up here. About two weeks ago, my friend, Turkey, handed me a very interesting picture he had drawn. As you can see below, this picture was a brilliant piece of inpiration.
Seriously though, look at this.
For those of you who can’t quite grasp the concept, it is a robotic, missile-breathing, laser-firing warosceros mounted by a samurai penguin that is shooting a fire-breathing mermaid out of it’s medieval flail. Anyway, after seeing this brilliant work, I just had to make my own iteration of it. So after toiling away in a week’s worth of Economics classes, I had completed my own take on the Warosceros, and was left with this.
Although it will never match the true quality of the original, I hope that you can appreciate my piece for its own merit.

This Week
Greetings future readers,
I am writing you this correspondence from the past (April 5th, to be exact) because I know I won’t have a chance to get a real post up today. Why, you may ask, won’t I be able to get a post up today? Well, my dear Chunkites, I am half-way around the world right now. That’s right, by the time you’ll be reading this, I will be chilling in Hong Kong over spring break.
But fear not, even though I’m not here, you’re still going to be getting your recommended daily dosage of Chunk this week. I’ll be taking the liberty of pre-scheduling a full week’s-worth (and then some) of content for you guys before I leave so you won’t have to miss a minute of the action, because that’s just what I do.
Peace.
Turrets Syndrome
Those of you who have been with us since the beginning (circa 2007) will probably remember this comic. I know, I’m being lazy again, but I really wanted to get you a post today and this is one of the few old comics I still feel okay about showing to the public. So for those who haven’t seen this yet, enjoy. Those who have, enjoy it again. Enjoy it, dammit!

So the other day Matt and I went over to Shanky’s house to check out his editing progress with one of our videos. However, Matt had to take care of some things before he could come watch it. So Shanky and I were left to our own devices for almost ten minutes, which of course led to us wanting to cause some form of physical harm to Matt. Lo and behold, Shanky’s lovely AK-47 airsoft rifle was sitting right there, so we decided to have a little fun and to document it for your enjoyment.

A lot of you have been asking me how to get an avatar by your name when you leave a comment.
Unfortunately, there’s no way to do it directly from our site, so you’ll have to sign up for an account with Gravatar, and from there, your new avatar will work perfectly well with our site.
Lying
Some people are very stubborn. Coincidentally, some people are very violent…
So here it is, our second official skit. We’re so glad our last one received such good feedback and we hope you enjoy this one even more.

Really though, what better place to talk about the economy than a rickety wooden track of terror?
EDIT: For some reason the video won’t embed properly, so you’ll have to click the link above. Sorry for the inconvenience.
Leave the first comment ▶Tonight’s W?RD is, “Addicted”
It has come to our attention here at Chunk o’ Paper that one of the jokes in our most recent sketch “Addicted” was similar to a quip from none other than the Colbert Report’s Steven Colbert. In fact a certain “Kribbles” even commented on our video, accusing Chunk o’ Paper of stealing said joke from Mr. Colbert.
We would like to clarify this dispute with our viewers. We initially filmed “Addicted” on February 27th while Mr. Colbert appeared on Good Morning America on March 19. By simple deductive reason it is obvious that Steven Colbert stole our joke! This predicament gives us only one option: to accept Colbert’s sincere apology on his show. Does that sound good Steven? Because your on our list now. Your people can call our people…
Addicted
Alright guys, our first legitimate scripted video. Expect to see this kind of thing more often, and getting better and better.

Since the beginning of our little endeavor into the world of sketch comedy the members of Chunk o’ Paper have been asked one question above all others: Why? (This question is usually followed by: “But…Why?” As well as: “Well, don’t you have anything better to do?”)
Well Chunkites, to answer your question we (re)started Chunk o’ Paper for the same reason that anyone starts a comedy website: to be so famous and obscenely wealthy that we will never have to do a real day’s work in our lives. Many of you will undoubtedly think this reason is grossly vain, but we prefer to think of it as brutally honest, and let’s face it Chunk O’ Paper is all about brutal honesty. In fact we think of ourselves as a beat-you-over-the-head-like-a-trespassing-rodent-with-our-shoe-sole-of-honesty kind of blunt.
The best part of this scheme is that there’s nothing you can do to stop us! By reading this article and visiting our website you are supporting us. When you tell your friends about how unfunny and untalented we are; it’s still press, and being tremendously power hungry, we consider any press to be good press.
So to sum up: Why? Because we can, and best of all there’s nothing you can do about it! How’s that for brutally honest?
