Just for Laughs: Butter's Pimp Game

WARNING: The following clip is offensive and wrong on multiple levels, but I honestly laughed my ass off so many times re-watching it that I felt I would be doing a disservice to not share it with my blog peeps. I missed the full episode, but it will be available on 11/14/09 at South Park Studios.

Watch it with headphones or the volume low, if you value your job. Thanx to Obatala for pointing out this clip and to Matt and Trey for another good laugh. Happy Friday!
