2008: The Year of NPH

If this isn't his year, I don't know what could be. He's the trademark character on a good show, generating a slew of popular catchphrases. He's starring in an innovative web television project created by a well renowned TV genius. A major motion picture studio is marketing a movie, of which he is not the star, using little more than a picture of him on a unicorn. And you'd be hard pressed to find anyone who would describe him as anything less than "awesome".

Okay, that got more than a little effusive. Anyway, tonight's episode of HIMYM, "The Bracket", was a good one. The main episode was really funny and clever. The bit with everyone trying to guess what his pick up strategy at a museum is was particularly amusing. And I always love some good Bracketology. But all of that pales in comparison to the episode's coda. I don't want to reveal the joke to anyone who hasn't seen it, so here's the full episode. Admittedly, a more subtle reference may have been more clever, but when that music started my jaw dropped and then I laughed hysterically for probably a solid minute.

In addition, this is possibly the most amazing thing I've ever heard: www.tedmosbyisajerk.com.
