True tales of the humor-impaired.

The bête noire of the Writers Guild of America in the current labor dispute is the Alliance of Motion Picture and Television Producers (AMPTP). Someone at AMPTP was asleep at the switch and didn’t register AMPTP.com …. which left the door open for someone to create a pretty funny parody site.

I’m not exactly sure what to say about this:

Part 1 of a 1973 spoof that has been carved into several parts on YouTube. To see the rest of it, click on the image above and go to the YouTube site instead of playing it here. You’ll see links to the other parts in the right-hand column.

It was one of a series of films starring the hobo character.

Hat tip to my colleague Brian Mosely for pointing this out.
