Vermilion Pleasure Night is a Japanese comedy variety show that primarily focuses on parodying popular Japanese shows and American sitcoms. You could probably get away with likening it to an episode of Tim and Eric, except for the fact that the episodes are longer, which can be a plus and a minus. Tim and Eric,…

Here’s my Wednesday schedule. 8:30-10:30 Accounting Lab/Class; 10:30-3:30 do nothing; 3:30-4:45 ISS480, I forget what the name of…
