CC INSIDER: THE OLDEST JOKE IN THE WORLD

The oldest (literally) joke in the world is as follows: A guy buys a slave (white slave – this is how long ago we’re talking here) and as soon as he gets it home, it dies. He goes back to the seller and says, “Hey, I bought this slave off of you and it died. “By the gods,” answers the slave’s seller, “when he was with me, he never did any such thing!” CC Insider notes, this is basically Monty Python’s dead parrot joke.

Another Greek slave joke: A miserly dude is taking a long sea voyage. On the way, a huge storm blows up, causing his slaves to weep in terror. “Don’t cry,” he consoles them, “I have freed you all in my will!”

STREET CARNAGE is mostly a website that features street fashion critiques called STREET BONERS and compilations of bad television called TV CARNAGE. The site also has a blog, a radio show, and regularly features video shorts made by Gavin and Derrick.

STREET CARNAGE is also a live presentation you can have in your town where Gavin shows a Street Boners "Best Of" and Derrick shows his latest TV Carnage endeavors.

STREET BONERS will eventually be compiled into a huge book which will feature hundreds of pages of Boners as well as contributions from Chloe Sevigny, Debbie Harry, Fred Armisen, Tim & Eric and many more.

Derrick makes videos for various bands as well as his own movies. His most recent project is called "Cop Movie" and is comprised of about three dozen different cop movies and he also has a workout video coming out that is made up of a million disgusting workout tapes. Gavin does freelance writing for TV, film and magazines and they both do funny acting stuff as well as other hilarious video shit we'll tell you about later. They are both dicks.
