Oh man, LOL!

I know! And the song is catchy as hell. I love the instructions: Step One--Cut a hole in a box . . . Timberlake did quite a good job on SNL I thought, and I'm not a fan.

hilarious

I read somewhere of this being called "Cock in a Box" but how would we know? I couldn't read their lips, and so here's a question: which is funnier to you all Cock or Dick. I was in the cock camp (so to speak) but now I'm leaning towards dick. Seriously, dating would be easier. I kid. But for real, which do you think is the better title?

I heard "dick" through the bleeps last night. The uncensored version is on YouTube now and proves my ears right. (It's posted by NBC, so it should stick around for a while.)

"Dick" is intrinsically funnier than "cock" in most contexts because "dick" is a more playful word. But "cock" is necessary in more aggressive comedy (see: Sam Kinison, almost anyone's version of The Aristocrats routine.)

Hey maudlin, nice find.

sbchapm - feel like replacing the code and slapping an NSFW flag on this? I love the uncensored versions of just about everything...

I'm impressed by NBC finally accepting the opportunity for free promotion by posting clips on Youtube instead of their proprietary disaster zone site.

Comment hidden because you are ignoring dag.(show it anyway)

I wonder why "cock" would sound less playful than "dick"? What's more playful than calling your penis a chicken?

Calling your penis "Richard". Just ask Mr. Simmons.

I tried grabbing the new code, but it's been published already, so I'm not sure what to do. It's fine--we could just remove this one. The new version is funnier and better looking.

sbchapm - you can just edit the post and paste in the new embed code.

Yeah, but if edit it and put in the new embed, it says, it's been published elsewhere--and it has: http://www.videosift.com/video/SNL-Dick-In-A-Box-Samberg-and-Timberlake

Not sure how to work this.

This is a rip off of Dave Chappelle is this link:

Thanks, James. Very nice of you.

only cause it's JT, i'm such a teen girl at heart

Dammit! Timberlake's making it hard to hate him when he pulls off comedy gold like this. If more SNL guests were this funny, I'd start watching the show again.

what do you call Timberlake in a coffin?

Dead?

No, darksun. A dick in a box! Duh.

kilwrath's comment illustrates the commercial intelligence of NBC sharing these clips freely

i can NOT believe this was EIGHT years ago



holy cow the years are passing by quickly...

God damn.Every link I find is shit or disabled by copyright. Just leave it alone! No one is making dick in a box toys or trying to sell justin timerlake's dick in a box. Eight fucking years the internet has had this video and nothing bad has happened. Leave it alone already.

*backup=[...snipped...]

*notdead

This dead video has been deemed functional; either it was accidentally declared dead or lucky760 is planning to manually replace the embed with a backup - declared notdead by lucky760.

Added alternate embed code for this video - backup requested by lucky760.

Replaced video embed code with backup #7843 (supplied by member lucky760) - embed replaced by member lucky760.

Fortunately it's still available at YT, so a quick DL from YT and UL to VM and we're back in business.

ugh. The audio is slowed down (i wonder if that's to avoid detection) and I've been counting pixels but I'm not sure there's even 144p here, grrr. Better than dead tho! Thanks lucky

*backup=better one
