The MST3K shorts are the only way to watch these without wanting to burn down retirement homes.

Thank you for this, genuinely cracked me up.

Some of my personal favorites:

  • The Home Economics Story (317). The stuff of Project 2025 wet dreams.
  • Cheating (515). I have never feared a middle schooler in a velvet dress until I saw this.
  • A Date with Your Family (602). Basically every meme about 1950s American suburbia in one gut-busting short film.

Jesus Christ one of them was just a clearly socially anxious (or neurodivergent) person being othered and the advice was, "just be more normal, like, buy a book on how to be normal and don't fuck it up because then you deserve it!"

Bonus making fun of the fat kid the entire video to keep the audience engaged.
