"Role Models" Best comedy of the year so far..

Ok, I can go on with all the stereotypes: "This film is never cheesy or overdone. It is honest and never takes the easy way out. I laughed from start to finish. It's not particularly high brow, but it does take a fairly usual concept - hating your job and letting life pass you by, and having to deal with the consequences - and does some unique stories with it".
BUT, comedy crossing the line is why you should watch Role models..EXAMPLE:
"Beyonce pouring sugar on my d#$@"

Wheeler has to complete 150 hrs of community service; therefore, he is assigned a foul-mouthed black kid who likes to draw pictures like the above 1...
There are lots of laugh really hard out loud moments. I thought it was better written and well acted, with only few potty jokes and a lot more humor...

What's wrong with kids today (SPORTS EDITION)

THE FACTS: I was at a high school lacrosse game the other day sitting at the stands but very close to the coach of the home team...Other than knowing the game and having a solid game plan I think great coaches are able to motivate their players whenever, wherever...In a nippy and rainy Saturday morning those 16 yr old were facing this instead of that... at the same time they were playing a Division I playoff game but the lack of hustle and energy was obvious..with time running down, the coach was heard screaming to its players "If there's no grass on the field you GOTTA play in the mud..." Great motivation there right??? Especially if it comes from a mad white Irish dude about to have a stroke and multiple heart attacks..

THE PROBLEM: Well kids started laughing (after leaving the bench and entering the court), some of the bench players were heard calling the coach homo/faggot (when he was like 1 mile away from the bench) while all kind of jokes were provided by entrepreneurs in the stands...

THE DIAGNOSIS: Kids today are soft and spoiled, period.They don't know and they don't appreciate how good they got it..No agency cared if our parents beat us..As a matter of fact the parents of all my friends also had permission to kick our ass! Band aids??? Hello??? My first basketball game was next to a chicken coop out of a wooden bucket previously filled with tomatoes...that's mud AND poop at the same time! Can you feel me??? You're spoiled! You guys wouldn't have lasted a minute back in the 90's...

And please don't get me wrong I'm not saying we should go back to that:






Although we get a very entertaining point about Greeks and what's wrong with them being lazy and not wanting to work...
