Aziz Ansari is a fucking badass

Local improv comedian, Aziz Ansari, is a fucking badass. Performing weekly at the Upright Citizens Brigade Theater, his show "Crash Test" last Monday involved Aziz and his roommate coming up with "The Shittiest Mix Ever," which he describes as such:

Zach and I had to choose the 5 worst songs we could think of for a 'shit mix' and then Merlin would declare who indeed had the shittiest mix. The loser would then have to walk around Washington Square Park blasting all 10 songs on a boombox. Here's how our final mixes turned out:

Me:
1. LFO - Summer Girls ("I like girls that wear Abercrombie and
Fitch...)
2. Crazy Town - Butterfly
3. Kidz Bop Kids - All Star
4. Sixpence None the Richer - Kiss Me (Think "She's All That" or any other teen comedy featuring Freddie Prinze, Jr.)
5. Barenaked Ladies - One Week

Zach:
1. Gloria Estefan - Conga
2. Paula Cole - I Don't Wanna Wait... (we had a spotlight and apt hug during this touching jam)
3. Saliva - Click, Click, Boom!
4. The Wiggles - The Monkey Dance (holy shit, Zach brought the house down with this one, expect an MP3 soon.)
5. Theme Song from "Blossom"

Needless to say, Zach was declared the winner."


While Aziz' songs were very annoying, I'd have to agree that Zach's were shittier. Anyway, Aziz is hilarious. He also performs with one of my favorite comedians, Rob Huebel ("Mauled by a tiger?!"), and Aziz' website includes short films that he and Rob put together. Check 'em out.
