Ever wonder what drives crusading field journalist Carl Monday? He didn't just pursue the Mike Cooper library case out of thin air; there had to be an underlying force, some childhood trauma, perhaps, which would cause him in later life to obsess over a perfectly ordinary human function. We wonder what that could have been? What psychologically tumultuous event from his distant memory served to push him toward investigative reporting in a trenchcoat? Hmmm.
Actually our little film appears to be too recent to be depicting Carl Monday, we think. But a young Sean Salisbury is entirely possible.

Today must be "horribly repressed childhood memory day" at Deadspin.
24 hours of ESPN will do that to you.
Weird, I have the same video but with a much different ending...
I wonder what's on the kid's ceiling? Hmmmmmm......
Why didn't they show the last 10 seconds? Where the kid says, "Don't leave, you talked for so long that I already finished"....
Mom?
Was that a deleted scene from Spanking the Monkey?
why didn't that kid lock the door?
This is the first post with the "Hi, I'm Chris Hanson (sp?) from Dateline NBC" tag?
he's a trainable.
"Make Love, Not War"
I'll take whatever that mom is taking.
Chris Hansen is not amused
"I'm over here, mom!"
I'm glad you're doing this in the privacy of your own room.
Where did she expect the kid to be doing it? On the front porch? The local public library? Oh, wait ...
Wheres his sock?
She's even scarier than Pennywise.

Replace the kid with Tom Brady, the mother with Bill Belichek and the setting the visitors locker room at the RCA Dome at halftime of the Pats - Colts playoff game.

This is great. When I find that my kid is doing this, all I have to do is send him an email with this youtube attachment. Dilemma solved.
@Weed Against Speed: I think in the 60s it was Valium.
I like more pep in my step, if you know what I mean.
Once again, damn workplace filters!!!
Imagine growing up with a mother like that:
"I saw what you were doing. That drawing is very good. Next time, please don't draw on the wall. You may be a great artist some day. I will respect you as an artist no matter what. I accept that you may one day have a boyfriend."
I was in my room and I was just like staring at the wall thinking about everything. But then again I was thinking about nothing. And then my mom came in and I didn't even know she was there she called my name. And I didn't even hear it, and then she started screaming: MIKE! MIKE! And I go: What, what's the matter? And she goes: What's the matter with you? I go: There's nothing wrong mom. And she goes: Don't tell me that, you're on drugs! And I go: No mom I'm not on drugs I'm okay, I was just thinking you know why don't you get me a Pepsi? And she goes: NO you're on drugs! I go: Mom I'm okay, I'm just thinking. She goes: No you're not thinking, you're on drugs! Normal people don't act that way! I go: Mom just give me a Pepsi please! All I want is a Pepsi, and she wouldn't give it to me! All I wanted was a Pepsi, just one Pepsi, and she wouldn't give it to me. Just a Pepsi!
the entire video can be found here, rather disturbing and probably not to safe for work:

Whats wrong with a little Wii-sports before bed?
"Oh Rickey, you are not the master of your domain."
@Clare: I want to go home and play Guitar Hero now...
MONDAY BEGINS
@BowdenBowdenBowden: NO! Is that on there?!
@Clare: Yes, it is. (Guitar Hero II, I think both PS2 and XBox360 versions) And it's one of the more difficult songs too.
@Seymour Scagnetti: I didn't know Peter was another name for Penis...
@Jen P: you'd be surprised where a growing boy will go to spill a little baby batter
@Clare: doesn't matter, I'll probably get hit by a car anyway.
@BowdenBowdenBowden: And that my friends, make us all cry a little.
@Seymour Scagnetti:
narrator for sex ed for trainables: richard dix.
enough said. well actually.... 'say penis'... 'louder!' .... 'ding-dong'.....
It seems that masturbation now qualifies as a sport on this here sports blog... i guess it is much more taxing than spelling, and as short in duration as most UFC fights.
I'm in poor physical shape, aren't I? No no, I'll show myself the door.
"I said, don't disturb me when I'm cleaning my room!"
/Deputy Doofy
Yes, little kid.
@BowdenBowdenBowden: That's a damn shame.
I beat my dick like it owes me money
@SA: @Moonshine Mike: Wait, what? That "Institutionalized" is a Guitar Hero II song or that it's hard? It's pretty fun to play, actually.
Michael Jackson has just requested the extended-length "Director's Cut" of that public service announcement.
(Anyone living in the Philly area might recognize the soundtrack from being featured on the "Preston & Steve" morning show.)
"It feels good, doesn't it."
"Yes, Mom. Yes it does."
@flubby: "Doesn't anybody f_cking knock anymore?" - Eddie Griffin Fixed.
"We'll talk about what causes these feelings." Oooh, I know this one. My hand on my dick?
Ah. "The ABCs of Sex Education for Trainables." My friend bought this on VHS when she decided to type "retard" on eBay and buy the first thing that popped up. A fantastic source of amusement.
We think that after the video ends the narrator morphs back into a fox and runs into the painting behind him.
@Seymour Scagnetti: Oh. My. God. That first minute is the most disturbing thing I've ever seen. I mean, Jesus. I'll never whistle again. Christ.
@Seymour Scagnetti@Dan Daoust: I'm going to go with the scene beginning at the 10:30 mark as the most troubling. And yes, I watched the whole thing.
The kid could be Melissa Gilbert's twin.
@Seymour Scagnetti: Wow. Frank Deford hasn't aged a bit!
"The technique used is drawing out, rather than pumping in."
When you say it like that, it sounds dirty.
C'mon, over! We got Tera Patrick!
