How To Make A Billion Dollars *by William
I’ll just say what everybody is thinking: nobody likes Mark Zuckerberg. First of all, the guy looks like he’s had a six-month long love affair with a bag of Cheetos. What is up with all of the world’s richest people having the physique of a high school janitor? I know you can afford all of the food in the world, but that doesn’t mean you have to eat it. Even Steve Jobs only lost weight because he...
Day Jobs * By Diana
As you might have guessed, Ironic T-Shirt doesn’t exactly pay the bills. I mean with a blog entitled “Diary of a Desperately Failing Sketch Group,” you are probably pretty stupid if you thought this is what we did for a living. That’s right, I’m calling you stupid.
Unless of course you assumed we all have day jobs…
Which we do!! We have jobs which we spent...

A Review of Inception, Sort Of *by William
So I saw Inception last weekend – Wait, hold on. Let me clarify. There are too many movie reviews in the world. Nowadays everybody wants to jump on the Internet or join their college newspaper to tell everybody about their stupid opinions about movies. What are you, Roger Ebert’s missing thyroid? As if we needed someone to tell us that The Last Airbender was going to be a bad movie. So I’m not...
WatchWe entered another video on Atom.com - ‘How to Play Guitar’ It’s currently in 3rd place and we would love it if you watched it and shared it around so it has a chance to make it to 1st!
Back to the Plot Holes *by William
So, Back to the Future, right? I know what you’re thinking: “Great, now this asshole is gonna shit all over an 80s classic.” Or more likely you’re thinking, “Why do I keep reading these things,” or still more likely, “Who is this twat?” But no, Back to the Future is a blast. It’s got time travel, incest, Christopher Lloyd… You’d think more movies would try and rip it off for success. I mean, Who...
Goddamnit, Portland *by William
Look, I’ll be honest: I didn’t need another reason to hate Portland. It’s bad enough that every Oregonian has to bark at you like a retarded Doberman if you say Or-e-GON instead of Or-e-GUN. But Portland itself is a fucking disgrace. I’ve never been there, but I hate every thing about it.
Not that I need to visit. I’ve been to Madison and I’ve been to San Francisco. I’m sure it’s the same...
Why I Am Glad They Are Not All California Girls...
The year was 1965. Malcolm X was assassinated. The United States sent the first round of combat troops into Vietnam. And Brian Wilson wrote a song that was soon to be infamous.
It Begins.
“California Girls” was more than an instant hit: it became a cultural phenomenon. Boys and girls across the nation were singing this seemingly innocent song about which U.S. region had the best poon. Twenty...
WatchAtom.com contacted us and asked us to upload this video for their new tournament. If you click and watch it, we could be featured on Comedy Central. It’s also our latest video, ‘The Whiskey Tree’ so you should probably watch it anyway.

Two Weeks *By Diana
We here at Ironic T-Shirt have committed ourselves to making sketches every two weeks and we have a bit of a schedule down. I thought I would share it with you:
Monday - Should we meet? Yeah, we should probably meet. What should we do this time…no ideas…no ideas…no ideas…Tony looks at his ideas document on his iphone and suggests something we immediately thought was...
Im Your Rapist 'By Nick
Why hello there. Nice to meet you. Who am I? Oh, I’m the rapist. You know, the one with the moustache drinking from the can of peaches in Jalapenos. Doesn’t ring a bell? How about the eviscerated hobo? The cannibalistic roommate? The punk rock amputee?
That’s right – Nick von Keller is your full service gross character actor. If you’ve got a bit part that more requires a lack of shame...

The Gaston Problem *by William
When I was a kid my favorite thing about Beauty & The Beast was Cogsworth. Not to say that the Beast wasn’t cool or that Lumière wasn’t a pimp, but Cogsworth just rubbed me the right way. What can I say, I thought that a fat little clock named Cogs-worth who had a mustache made out of his hour and minute hands was clever.
Something from my childhood and something that terrifies me. Alas,...
Post Office Adventures - by Diana
In hopes to get noticed by…well anyone, we submit to a lot of contests. All require the same thing - DVD of a show, press kit, 40 dollars - mailed to a P.O. Box somewhere.
In addition to these contests, we submit to Channel 101, a monthly screening with five new pilots and five returning pilots competing for a chance of another episode. I view Channel 101 as the precursor to funnyordie...

Every Sketch Group has a House by Diana
Every sketch group I know has lived together in a house. Lonely Island got their name from living together in a house in Culver City, Monty Python famously owned a monastery and, of course, Human Giant had their bone cathedral.
Is Ironic T-Shirt an exception? ABSOLUTELY NOT! We all live in a big old house near downtown Los Angeles. Here is the front of it in our sketch, Second Chances:

Wenlock? More like Wencock! *by William
I’m not the first guy to point this out, and I’m not going to be the last. But maybe you heard it here first. London, the host of the 2012 summer Olympics and Paralympics, just revealed their mascots, Wenlock and Mandeville. Check the link below for pictures. http://www.telegraph.co.uk/sport/picturegalleries/7740806/In-pictures-London-2012-Olympic-mascots-Wenlock-and-Mandeville-are-launched.html...
Waffle Night! *by Nick
A few weeks ago we decided to submit to the Friars’ Club Sketch Competition, which meant we had to record a live performance. We didn’t have any performances scheduled in time for the submission deadline, so we decided to rent the Tre Stage theater space in Hollywood and film what a live show would look like (we toyed around with adding a laugh track to simulate a true live show, but realized...
Welcome to our blog!
So it’s been a year since we restarted our sketch group – Ironic T-Shirt – in sunny Los Angeles. And with twelve months of work we’ve got a website with more than one page, a smattering of contest entries and featured videos, a Twitter account, a Facebook group, a Funny Or Die channel, work lights, boom mics, a closet of props, and, most importantly, over twenty five filmed sketches. Yes, a...
