Allegations of "Parallel Writing" Rock SNL's Digital Shorts Team

Do similarities exist between an Improv Everywhere stunt and a recent SNL Digital Short? OfficePirates.com has the complete story.

The SNL clip has a say-no-to-drugs theme attached that the Improv Everywhere video doesn't have. However, since the drug being name-checked is peyote--a substance known for triggering spiritual journeys rather than window jumping antics--the drug message sort of comes across like an afterthought.

Just like buying clothes at full price: this is a total rip-off.

Payote is def. an afterthought, doesn't even make sense with the rest of the sketch.

IE's is way funnier. I remember when I saw it when it first came out on their website - I laughed my ass off.

Or peyote. When you smoke it you can't spell it.
