The Avett Brothers | I and Love and You

Thought I would round out the week with something else short and fun. I’ve watched Can’t Hardly Wait a couple times recently and the below clip is just a classic that I’m sure you haven’t seen in awhile. It also includes Jason Segal’s first part in a movie. You now know him as Marshall on How I Met Your Mother or Peter Bretter from Forgetting Sarah Marshall. Anyways, it’s a great clip from a great movie. And Velma was a hip hip lady – way ahead of her time.
If you have something to say...
This is one my favorite CHW trivia facts!
Because I’m a huge CHW fan – I watched the film with commentary one time – and the story behind Jason Segal is actually really good (and I’ve probably told Drew this story nine or ten times… so this is for the other avid TDM readers):
I guess Jason Segal was only supposed to be an extra, sitting in the background of a few shots, just looking like a normal high school dude. But he kept making jokes and adlibbing funny lines whenever the cameras were rolling – so they just decided last minute to put him in the movie. Most of this scene was just him making stuff up.
Awesome work Jason – you continue to be one of my favorite actors.
@Zach you have told me that story a couple times and left it out of the post so you could tell it again! I didn’t feel right stealing your thunder.
My other favorite Zach, CHW story is when I was talking to him about my interview to get admission into graduate school. A question that was asked of me was, “what is the first thing that comes to mind when you hear the word statistics?” (bizarre question). My response had to do with standard deviation…Zach’s much better response was “92 PERCENT YO!”
Velma was pretty cool though…
