The Daily: "Lazy Sunday" and "Dick in a Box" are obviously the things that you're the most well known for. When you made those, did you have some idea of how successful they'd be?
AS: No. "Lazy Sunday" especially. That was the third digital short we shot in our first season, so we were like, "God, I hope it doesn't get cut." 'Cause the one we'd made the week before did get cut. And then it just kinda got out of control. But also it was surprising to us because we had been doing stuff really similar to "Lazy Sunday" on our Web site for three or four years. If people go to thelonelyisland.com, and watch like Stork Patrol or Ka-Blamo or any of those things, it's the same joke. But it was cool for us to get known for doing exactly what we had been doing. It felt really satisfying.
The Daily: We heard rumors that some of the Northwestern frats were going to invite you to hang out after your performance. Did they, and are you going to take them up on that offer?
AS: I have not been invited yet. I'll think about it, probably not. I don't feel very well. Still kind of recovering from Saturday. Diddy was at the show, so … I didn't meet him or anything.
