Michael Cera, Jack Black and Danny McBride Walk Into a Bar

All right, not exactly, but Drunk History is funnier than that joke probably would've been anyway. In this video series created in 2007 and 2008, various funny folks combined forces to present "history as it's never been told before: Drunk." It goes a little something like this:

1. Someone gets drunk.
2. Said someone discusses a historical event.
3. Actors lip sync the story, including any drunken parts, as they dramatically act out the event.

That's pretty much it, really. Someone showed me these at some point in the not-too-distant past, but then I forgot about them. Maybe I was drunk. But then someone reminded me of them yesterday. Maybe she was drunk! Regardless, you should take a break from whatever you're doing and watch them now:
