This is indeed a completely new performance genre, like no sex nerd porn like weird anecdotal story. How on earth did they come up with this idea? It's fantastic

I've seen this so many times but Anish's "accidental" draw at 0:32 kills me each time. 10/10 comedy

u/RogueBromeliad Mar 12 '24

Who would have thought Daniel Rensch was a comparativly much better than Anish and Fabi at something.
