The joke here, of course, is that Matt Haughey is Ed Helms and The Daily Show is what he does when he's not cleaning up login posts. posted by eyeballkid at 1:51 PM on August 2, 2004
When I asked Ed to hold that sign for me, after he interviewed [I think] Jesse of Pandagon. He graciously complied and said "You know, I actually AM this guy." posted by jessamyn at 2:05 PM on August 2, 2004

Actually we're all Matt Haughey, and in a Fight-Club-Esque surprise ending the multiple personality walls will come crashing down one of these days and we'll struggle against ourselves in an epic exchange of fisticuffs and pyrotechnics, culminating in the blowing up of the server. posted by scarabic at 2:21 PM on August 2, 2004
Plane tickets, itineraries, the smell of sweat and dried blood; everywhere there was his shadow and his footsteps. Had I been Matt Haughey more, and ChasFile less?

Didn't that happen sometime in '02? posted by languagehat at 3:37 PM on August 2, 2004
Ok Wendell, that last rendering wins you about another five minutes of grace. That was funny, goddammit! Now, while you can, end it on a high note and hang up your MetaFilter_banner.gif hijinks before they get old. posted by scarabic at 11:07 PM on August 2, 2004
Incidentally, I swear to God I had a dream about mathowie last night. I was making my way through a train station, from platform to platform, up and down stairs, and when I spotted him he glanced up from his newspaper without recognition, and then back to the paper. He appeared disheveled, with the disinterested expression of someone who's recognized in public all the time. He also had a "warmer" presence than I expected: he was dressed only in a t-shirt and jeans, as if the weather were quite comfortable, his hair was loose and wavy, as if he'd been sweating, and he was way tall and broad-shouldered, rangy and confident.
Um, yeah. I swear. posted by scarabic at 11:22 PM on August 2, 2004

I am not Matt Haughey. I am, however, Ed Helms. In drag. With better hair. Honesty is the basis of our relationship, and I feel better knowing that I've cleared the air. posted by dejah420 at 9:20 PM on August 3, 2004
