Betty White and the Beatles


Ok so seriously, Happy Birthday Betty White.  I know we're a few days late, but hey, at least we remembered.  And who knew about this little known Beatles song?  In my ever so humble opinion, it should become a classic.  I mean, it might take a couple days to get to that point because it was only just discovered.  How it didn't make it into the Beatles anthology, I do not know...

Subscriber Contest and Prize Ideas

Okay everyone,  we are ready to give away some prizes.  Our goal is 5,000 subscribers.  Now we know that Rome wasn't built in a day.  (And neither was my brother in law's extensive collection of Star Wars Lego spaceships).  So to show how awesome we are, we're going to give prizes along the way.  This is what I propose:  The first prize will be given away at 100 subscribers.  The second at 500.  Third at 1,000.  Another at 2,000 and finally the grand prize will be given out at 5,000 subscribers.

First off to qualify for entry into the contest you have to be a Me Like Jokes blog subscriber and you have to make a comment on the blog.  You will get an entry for the first three comments you make per tier.  And once we reach a tier goal the slate is wiped clean and you have to comment again for a chance at the next prize.  For example:  If Mary makes three comments before we reach 100 subscribers, then she gets her name entered 3 times into the raffle.  But before we reach 500 subscribers she didn't comment again.  Then she does not get her name entered into the raffle for the 500 subscriber prize.

Alright, clear as calculus?  Great.

If you win we'll let you choose from a list of prizes!  (Again to show you how awesome we are.)  Now here are some ideas for prizes:

2 month subscription to NetFlix

Excellent, yes?  If you have any suggestions let us know.  

Also, in case you have my luck and never win anything, we will be giving out prizes for comments we like.  If you have my skills you will win often.  We call these Podd Prizes.  Here are some examples:

We'd like to start this contest soon so... stay tuned.  (Stay tuned is a totally outdated term, so I'm going to make up a new one.)  Stay logged in!  (Yeah, that is way better).

Martin Luther King Jr. and Forever Families

Alright it's a new week and we have some new ads!  Hot dog!





In other news, the poll from last week has concluded and has proved indecisive.  Sadly we have been unable to determine if we should call those who check in at our blog, youtube channel etc., followers, friends, or waffles.  The only thing that has been decided upon, is that our last poll was apparently not the dumbest poll ever.  Kudos to us.  More videos and polls to come soon!

Here's the newest video, Awkward Opera: Getting Fired.  Many thanks to our cast and crew, some of our staples, (Kyle Bowen), and some newcomers as well, (Jordan Lamoureux and Frank Rodriguez).  Enjoy!

New ads and new friends!

   Alright it's a new week, and with that we have new videos!  We start this week with a pair of Me Like Joke ads, comparing Me Like Jokes to the accomplishments of both Billy the Kid and Magic Johnson.  Diverse?  Yes, yes we are.
   Beyond that however, we also have new followers to the blog, also known as friends.  New friends, it is our assumption that you prefer to be called friends, and not followers.  I mean, followers may make it sound like you're in a strange cult of sorts where perhaps you ride goats as a ritual,  (obviously, no animals would be harmed).  Friends, however, simply implies that perhaps we have a game night and play board games together once in a while, (good times).  Let us know what you prefer.
    Last of all, to all of our friends and/or followers, we want to have more friends and/or followers. What can we say?  We were the kid in class that needed the spotlight and attention, (to the detriment of everyone else's education, not to mention our own).  However, we realize, that we cannot make new friends alone.  So please appease our attention needs and introduce your friends to us, and us to your friends, (think of it as a blind date, minus the dating).  Or if you have good ideas on how we might make more friends, (and/or followers), let us know and maybe we'll give it a shot!
   Anyway, I will stop writing in this stream of consciousness style and instead eagerly await comments and any form of attention that may be received as a result of this post.  I hope to talk to you all soon!

Sincerely,

Cameron Lanier

Updated Schedule!

Our schedule has changed!  We've been working on videos that we can release in the upcoming months, and as we've been looking over the schedule we realized we should make a couple of changes.  Don't you worry, we are still releasing videos weekly, if not more.



The new schedule means we are able to make sure our videos are top notch, and it allows us to work on some other cool, super secret, you-can't-know, projects, (Ok, so you just can't know, yet, don't feel left out).  Don't think we are going away, or that we're lame, 'cause we aren't lame.


We have videos planned out for the next few months,  (that's right, we're good), so be not afraid.  Oh, and do us a favor and tell you're friends that we're awesome, and then have them tell their friends, and then those friends should tell their distant cousins, and then I hopefully will get a phone call from a cousin that I haven't spoken to in years who said he heard from a friend, who heard from a friend, about a cool youtube channel, and that he saw it and I was on it.  That'd be awesome; please help my dream come true.


Thanks for supporting us and always watching, and we are getting our new email campaign going soon, so you can read my banter even more!  Yay for you!


Lovingly,
Cameron Lanier

Me Like Jokes AD's

Is Me Like Jokes hotter then Katy Perry?  Is Me Like Jokes as delicious as lasagna?  We know that the comparison's may seem a bit unfair and maybe even absurd, but we'll play nice and say it's a tie.  You're welcome Katy Perry.

The Drunk Song

January is here, and so are new videos, beginning with: The Drunk Song.


December Outtakes

Our first full month of videos is over, and a new month, (and many more), are on their way.  We had a lot of fun our first month, and we couldn't help but put together an outtakes video so we could share the laughs with our fans, and let you guys see some of the fun behind the scenes work we do.  We hope you enjoy the video and that you're looking forward to this month's full schedule of videos, because we know we are.
