    Holy shit Key is animated I feel like I'd go insane after 5 minutes of conversing with him. its like he has 50 different comedic responses and opinions to every piece of dialogue and he's tweaking out either trying to figure out which one is the best or trying to convey all of them at once. Is this what improv does to people? Dude looks like he did like 6 lines of blow in the bathroom before coming out and just wants to explode out of his seat and start doing a stream-of-conscious stand up show while doing jumping jacks on Stephen's desk. Like damn

    I feel like "Han(d)s Christian Yes Anderson" is definitely a play on Yes' original singer Jon Anderson on top of what Kee and Stephen said. Jon Anderson, the lead singer of Yes, before forming the band in 1968, made some music recordings under the pseudonym Hans Christian Anderson.

    I'm guessing "Hans Christian Yes Anderson" is a reference to Jon Anderson, the lead singer of Yes who went by the name "Hans Christian" in some of his super early early recordings before Yes was made.

    • @bentonmitchell2440
      @bentonmitchell2440 8 лет назад +10

      Actually it's more likely a play on Hans Christian Anderson, the famous author who wrote things like The Little Mermaid, Emperor's New Clothes, The Ugly Duckling, etc.

    • @BusyCasual
      @BusyCasual 8 лет назад +3

      I can see that. The "Yes" that is thrown in there is what made me believe he was referring to Jon Anderson. That combined with the other stuff.

    • @ohdaUtube
      @ohdaUtube 8 лет назад

      +localboi808state I don't think you understand. you're looking at it from your limited perspective. given the fact that the overwhelmingly vast majority of people in the world are Asian, most people in general age that way. it's European Americans that don't age well. African Americans age just as well as Asian Americans. maybe even a little better. it may have a lot to do with the tanning culture that's prevalent in the US coupled with the lack of melanin from genetic mutation many centuries ago. melanin is what protects the skin from the sun. I was surprised how well Europeans aged but they tend to stay away from the sun more than we do in the US
