After Hours: 3 Popular Children’s Characters Who Secretly Hate Animals
I wrote this! Directed by Justin. Shot by Gustavo. Loved by you?
harlequin-hovering asked: Is the next episode of After Hours really not going to be up until October?! The new season just started! Where will I go to look at Soren's face now, Daniel?!
Anonymous asked: Why has your "character" changed so much over the last few years? Has that been a conscious choice, editorial direction, or just something that happens as years go by and you grow into a real boy? This is not meant to sound critical at all (I cannot emphasize that enough) because I love all of your words, and a great deal of your puntuaction. I'm just curious
shameandcupcakes asked: Hello Daniel. I really enjoy reading the things you write. I'm quite busy with grad school and drinking at the moment so I haven't been back to cracked in a while but your profile popped up on my tumblr front page thing and it made me think of a simpler time when I could read articles and not feel bad about letting the scientific community down by reading articles instead of doing PCRs....
blastitwithpiss asked: DAN! Hello! :) My question is, will there be another After Hours season? I rewatched season 1 and season 2 about 25 times and they never fail to make me laugh. Also, are the characters in there entirely you? Or are the personalities altered for comical effect or completely made up? Thanks for taking the time to answer; never stop being rad!
Anonymous asked: Hey! I've written the first entry of many attempts for the Cracked workshop, but I can never find enough information to make a whole article, how is it that you guys find such great outlines for articles? (PS: One of your articles said you and Britanick are friends, but this cannot be true, as I believe the three of you would combine to transcend time and space to pimp slap media as a whole.)

Didn’t know I needed this, but now yes, of course, obviously I always have.
Anonymous asked: So why is it that you often post long, thoughtful answers to questions (or long, thoughtful posts on questions you haven't even been asked yet) and so many of the other Cracked people just reblog each other? Do you just love your Tumblr followers that much more?

new After Hours is up today!
i think this one is my favorite so far!
I’m in this! My favorite on-set decision was making Daniel be totally fine with Cody’s invasive ness and over-familiarity, because that’s how socially terrible he/I/we is/am/are. After Hours Daniel would be dead in a ditch somewhere without After Hours Soren looking out for him.
The same is...

mimib14 asked: Dan, why are you so adorable and cute and nice and funny and perfect? ;v;
Anonymous asked: You seem like you're doing your weekly column less an less these days; is that a sign of things to come, or just chance? No DOB column makes my Fridays much longer :(
Anonymous asked: Hey, Dan, I'm an aspiring writer. I've read a bunch of writing advice online, including a lot of yours. However, there's one thing that I can never find, and that's how to write funny. Like, I don't really want to be a comedy writer, but it feels like a useful skill, you know? I mean, a joke can come to me organically in a conversation, but I don't know how to...
troubadoursmith asked: hello. Loved the new episode of After Hours! I was just curious how similar you would say that you guys are in real life to the on screen personalities we see. Are you really like that, are you all slightly exaggerated, or are you really playing characters?

Anonymous asked: Hello mate, big fan of your work. Do you ever find it strange that people think because they read your stuff they know you as a person? If this does not happen to you, disregard this question and write about Spider-man
