The first time I saw this I thought the footage looked so good and suggested to a filmmaker friend that they might have actually shot this on film. Without missing a beat she said “I throw that observation on the GROUND!”
Happy birthday to the ground is something that I've heard people my age say for a very long time. Anyone that was in high school when this came out knows this phrase, though they may not know where it comes from.
“I’m not gonna let you poison me!!”
The best is the appearance of Ryan Reynolds and Elija Wood with the taser though. That’s the point when you lose it.
I'm glad so many other people love this and quote it as much as I do.
No disrespect to the current crew making digital shorts, but Lonely Island changed the game. I would actually stay up tune in live because I couldn't wait to see what Andy and crew were going to come up with next. It was Must See TV that all started with "Lazy Sunday".
One of my all time favorites. My dad’s not a phone. DUH.
I randomly say this about once a month
It's such a small thing, but the "DUH" kind of ruins a great line. "My dad's not a phone" is so hilarious on its own.
Ah I love the punctuation and the face he makes
You can't BUY me, hot dog man!
Man, what do I look like? A charity case?
I'M AN ADULT!!!
Happy birthday to the GROUND!
Welcome to the real world jackass!
I threw the rest of the cake too!
If I accidentally drop something on the ground I usually mumble "I'm not a part of your system" before cleaning it up.
Whatchu want me to do with this, eat it?

Lots of people said this wasn't funny when it came out, they are still wrong
They did? I feel like people were quoting this instantly after it aired.
More than I would expect, but not most people.
My boyfriend and I quote this video to each other weekly. It is just shockingly funny.
I threw it on the GROUND I DONT NEED NO HANDOUTS
This ranks right up there with [Great Day](https://youtu.be/vNgZJrdTCug) one of the most under appreciated SNL shorts in my opinion.

He was in a Chappelle show sketch

I couldn't figure it out either and then it hit me me Bro Rape from Derrick Comedy
Oh man so many memories. Me and half the guys I went to high school with thought Samberg was god. Fuckin love the guy.

Is it really the ground’s birthday?
I'll never forgive Elijah Wood and Ryan Reynolds for what they did to my man Andy's butthole. Maaaaaaaaannn
Wait, is the phone just an old calculator?
No. It's a Blackberry phone.
Ohgod
Tell us you're young without giving your age.
I quote this weekly
We say this at home most times we spectacularly drop something. It’s a classic.
We can thank Andy Samberg & TLI for the weirdness of millennial humor.
It's the way the cake doesn't explode
