He actually acknowledge this in the commentary.
"And this is the part of the movie in which I poop in my pants. And you can see that I'm pooping and pooping and it's very poopy. The scene is very poopy and I'm pooping very much."
I'm mostly sick of a lot of things. Life stuff sucks. Living in a small town can suck sometimes. Anxiety and depression can suck. But at least I'm not Jonah Hill. It sounds mildly annoying to only be paid sixty thousand dollars to work with Martin Scorcese. You're worth more than that, Jonah Hill!
Cheer up, Jonah Hill! My dog gets paid pretty much nothing and has to work with me everyday. I get paid more than my dog! Isn't that crazy? He's pretty much doing the heavy lifting at this point. It can always be worse (and I'm talking to Jonah here, guys). Take that either as affirmation or caution, Jonah.
Basically, Jonah Hill should cheer up. Also, my dog. I think he's sad. I dunno, he looks sad when he's tired. He has more energy than I ever do, but it's only for a few hours a day. He sleeps the rest. That would be kinda cool, just sleeping seventy percent of the day. I think Obama should cheer up, and maybe other politicians. They kinda are always in a bad mood, right? That's kinda why things are the way they are?
I guess everyone should cheer up. Maybe. Probably. Maybe everyone should cheer up except people who we need to not cheer us up. The press. Artists of all sorts who help those of us who aren't cheered up. God. If there is a god, it's probably pissed off all the time, right? I mean, if it's all knowing and all powerful, it can't be in a good mood? Would a God even have moods, or is it like a machine that just dolls out punishment and the occasional miracle? What even is a miracle at this point in history? Toast selfies? If there was a God, would the prayers work like some Rube Goldberg machine, tinkering and click-clacking down the way from heaven to Earth, or is it more like a calculator? Do you put in a prayer, and there's some equation that's run through, indecipherable to humans? Like, does God just starve people to death because he's bored, or is he pissed off? Or does it just happen because that's what's in the equation? Maybe he's a psychopath incapable of human empathy, right? God should cheer up.
I don't really believe in a God, but when you propose the idea, that's kinda what comes to mind. There have been a million classes in a million places around the globe dedicated to these very simple questions alone. I grew up in Christian schools, and one of the first things they tell you when you start to have these thoughts is to not question them. "God has a plan." That sort of mantra. Lip service to mute how you really feel.
I somehow feel like I'm complaining. I'm not. I live a pretty comfortable life. I know I'll have food if I need it. I know I'll have water and a bed to sleep in. I have access to all the known information in the world at my fingertips. Most of the people I care deeply for care for me as well. I'm pretty lucky, and I'm not complaining. I should cheer up.
But mostly, Jonah Hill should cheer up.
Sure, but it could be a post-show hour after P&R, like Talking Bad or Talking Dead, but instead of Chris Hardwick discussing the season finale with Jimmy Kimmel, Scott Aukerman talks about fart pornos and they play Would You Rather.
This saves NBC and if it happens, I fully expect an EP credit.
