  • Good morning, John. Here in America, it is the day after Thanksgiving, which means that it is Black Fri-

  • [TWITTER:] Hey, Hank! It's Twitter... It's Twitter, I have a question.

  • [HANK:] What? [TWITTER:] What's your most controversial opinion?

  • [HANK:] Oh come on, Twitter. Why would I tell you that?

  • [TWITTER:] Content, man! It's content!

  • It's an easy format to put your own personal spin on without having to come up with something fresh.

  • [HANK:] YeahNo, yeah, that makes sense, but look. My most controversial opinions are pretty controversial.

  • And they're also like nuanced and take a long time to explain.

  • For example - [TWITTER:] No! God.

  • You make everything so complicated. You're just supposed to something dumb

  • that everybody's gonna be mad about, like, “Indian food is bad and everyone knows it.”

  • [HANK:] Why would anyone say that? Like even if I don't like Indian food,

  • I recognize that some people must, right? What's the point?

  • [TWITTER:] To make people mad! [HANK:] Yeah, you're right

  • [TWITTER:] It's ENGAGING. I'm leading you to the water here, but I can't make you drink!

  • You just have to come up with something dumb that 80 to 90% of people are gonna despise

  • But then 10 to 20% of people will be on your side and they will have your back,

  • and that's gonna keep the conversation going!

  • [HANK:] Oh my God! Like... this seems complicated.

  • [TWITTER:] No one said any of this was easy, baby! Your job is to make it look easy!

  • [HANK:] Well, actually… I think it is.

  • [TWITTER:] What? [HANK:] It's easy.

  • Butt is legs. [TWITTER:] What?

  • [HANK:] Butt... is legs.

  • [TWITTER:] That's ludicrousButt is butt.

  • [HANK:] Butt is butt, but butt is also legs.

  • [TWITTER:] Butt is butt.

  • [HANK:] Butt is legs.

  • [TWITTER:] That's… I mean, the dumbest thing I've ever heard!

  • [HANK:] Look, your leg bone is in your butt.

  • [TWITTER:] But you only have one butt!

  • [HANK:] I know! That's what makes this such an interesting sentence!

  • It's grammatically confusing because you have a singular butt, but plural legs!

  • But this isn't a grammatical question, it's an anatomical one,

  • and BUTT. IS. LEGS!

  • [TWITTER:] But scientifically, anatomically, your gut is in your torso, and your gut ends in your butthole,

  • which is your butt. So butt is torso, right?

  • [HANK:] The butthole is not legsThe butthole is not butt.

  • [TWITTER:] THE BUTTHOLE IS NOT BUTT?!! It's in the name!!

  • [HANK:] The butt transitions to butthole, just as hand is not arm. Arm transitions into hand -

  • [TWITTER:] Okay, so hand is not arm! Then shoulder is not arm. Then butt is not legs.

  • [HANK:] Shoulder is arm.

  • [TWITTER:] Don't say it. [HANK:] And butt is legs.

  • [TWITTER:] AGGH!! GOD!! Okay, look… I can't tell you why, but you are obviously wrong.

  • [HANK:] YOU TOLD ME TO HAVE A CONTROVERSIAL OPINION!!!

  • WHY ARE YOU YELLING AT ME FOR HAVING ONE???

  • [TWITTER:] Oh my God! I did, didn't I??

  • Like, I had legitimate - I had forgotten! Good - good work!

  • [HANK:] Twitter, this is the world that we have chosen for ourselves!

  • [TWITTER:] You got any others? [HANK:] Alright, second controversial opinion.

  • Black Friday...
