So we’re reading a backgrounder on Tosh.0, a program we happen to enjoy, only to discover we’re fucking up the demo:

“There are a million videos where someone gets kicked in the groin; this is the type of comedy that resonates well with young men,” said Brent Poer, managing director of ad-buying agency MediaVest.

Honestly, Tosh doesn’t run that many crotch shots — last night’s main segment featured the Screaming Candidate for Ohio county treasurer, whose junk remained blessedly unviolated.

Even during our own High-Testosterone Years, our taste in comedy ran more along the lines of Manhattan, Network, Airplane — but definitely not Animal House. Whacking Material, sure, but no crotch shots in the bunch.

But mainly it’s yet another Dreadfully Slow News Day, and we only need the slightest excuse to run the best kicked-in-the-groin video ever.

It’s the internet’s funniest home videos…

At least Tosh is actually funny unlike Saget.

I wonder if “crotch shots” is just what they told MediaVest – some years, Tosh has been more about *puking* videos; not much of a demo for that.

@ManchuCandidate: Saget is hilarious. Really. Just not on that show. Check out “The Aristocrats” for a taste.

Also, while I’ve enjoyed this video for years — it was originally a Channel 101 entry — I didn’t know until last night that the kicker is Mike Henry, better known as the voice (and now exec producer) of Family Guy’s Cleveland.

@nojo: Not on that show, nor on the other show, but absolutely in “The Aristocrats.”

@nojo: He’s terrific. Best is the special features version on the dvd.
