I’m a HUGE fan of Lonely Island. Came across this awesome music video titled YOU ONLY LIVE ONCE, feat Adam Levine and Kendrick Lamar (who?). I love it because it makes fun of people who take risk a little too seriously (“Two words about furniture: KILLING MACHINES!!”). But while we scoff at the idea that […]
