In honor of John Lee Malvo's decision to represent himself in the D.C. sniper case, we present you with the script to the Bad Idea Jeans commercial (courtesy jt.org):
[ open on group of guys sitting on a bench on a basketball court, laughing ]
Guy #1: Hey, we've got our apartment. We ripped up the floors, pipes, wiring, and having everything completely redone.
Guy #2: You're renting, right?
Guy #1: Yeah.
Guy #3: Well, he's an ex free-base addict, and he's trying to turn around, and he needs a place to stay for a couple of months.
Guy #1: [ tosses bottle to Guy #2 ] Head's up!
Guy #4: Now that I have kids, I feel a lot better having a gun in the house.
Guy #3: I thought about it, and even though it's over, I'm going to tell my wife about the afffair.
Guy #5: I don't know the guy, but I've got two kidneys and he needs one, so I figured..
Guy #2: Normally I wear protection, but then I thought, "When am I gonna make it back to Haiti?"
Announcer: Bad Idea Jeans.
Guy #1: Hey, you guys ready? Let's bet these guys! A hundred bucks.. make that two hundred! Two hundred bucks!
