Ricky Gervais as Karl in “Chinese Hair”
For no one’s reference, this is my favorite out-of-context 12 seconds of audio in the whole world.
My 30 days’ notice at my apartment ends on Monday. I have taken down my pictures and halfheartedly thrown a few towels and jewelry into boxes, but have put essentially no effort into actually preparing to change residences. I did finally take my collected glass from the last six months to the recycling center (hundreds of bottles. hundreds), but otherwise, I ain’t been stressin’. Why did I do this to myself?
Ricky: This is the sort of message I get from Karl, right. Whinger.
Karl: All right? Ten past 12, Wednesday. Um, just getting loads of fuckin’ people calling me about shit. Yesterday, DVDs, signing for BBC London. I don’t work there, but I’ve been dragged into that. I’ve got a woman on, uh, leavin’ a message from Talk PR, goin’ on about, do you want to go and see Pop Idol again. Right? Just sayin’, uh, you and some listeners can go, so I’m sure you’ll love that. I’ve got Jim Benner wantin’ you to introduce the Tin Buckets at the Astoria, so… Can you just, like, let Duncan know that I- I’m doing his job whilst he’s sat on his arse with his thumb firmly up his arse, can you let him know that I’m running around like a cunt here, sortin’ shit out for ya. All right? See ya later.

Karl: I just was saying last week, about everyone’s ravin’ about Galileo…
Ricky: No, they’re not! No, they’re not. No, no, they’re not, they’re not.
Steve: “Everyone’s raving about Galileo”! That sounds like a sort of B-side from the Buggles!

Robert - Do you know there was a midget that got swallowed whole by a hippo recently in a circus? He came off a trampoline at a funny angle and a hippo was yawning by the edge of the ring and he went straight into his mouth! That’s got nothing to do with this but it just popped into my head.
He IS Nathan. Nathan with brainz.
Yesterday, I listened to the episode of the Ricky Gervais XFM show when Karl tells this exact same story. He told it much better.

TOO FUNNY.
Karl, you are living in a cartoon world.
