    “where do you even see this font?” every middle school project on ancient egypt
  • @hanasyslova6676
    The fact that this sketch ends with the word papyrus written in comic sans font is the true evil genius of whoever edited this and I can't believe people aren't talking about it more 😂
  • @L3SSTH4NL33T
    The comic sans logo at the end is perfection. Best SNL skit in years
  • @MaybeAnnatar
    I will always love that Gosling acted his heart out in this one.

    As an editor, I am aware of Papyrus font. Saw Avatar 2 a few days ago for the first time. When the in-movie subtitles popped up, I said "ah, papyrus" aloud without thinking much. My sister said to me "you saw the skit?" and I had no idea what she was talking about. Never saw it. Then she showed me it. Died of laughter. Absolutely brilliant.

    Ken and Papyrus guy have got to be some of Ryan's best roles. He puts so much into being so grounded yet so eccentric
  • @ahmetbirbirey
    The fact that they wrote papyrus in comic sans is the finest detail
  • @jackielegs7436
    Easily a top 10 SNL sketch imo. Not even a debate. Simple concept, great execution, brilliant acting.
  • @joshuasmith2486
    Best line: "Whatever they did, IT WASN'T ENOUGH!!" That line is just asking to be memed
  • @chrisfitch972
    “Well whatever they did… it wasnt… ENOUGH!!” A single line worthy of a thousand Oscars.
  • @tro1239
    A guy behind me in the cinema muttered Papyrus to his friend when Avatar 2 was about to start and I was creasing with laughter
  • Ryan Gosling's performance in this is stellar and hilarious as heck, that Comic Sans ending and that table flip is personal.
  • @darylmoon1968
    Steven Wingding brings this skit full circle. All time fave skits
  • As a Graphic Designer, may I just say that this was not an over reaction
  • @kikobbell
    you just KNOW that this sketch came about because it had been legitimately bothering one of SNL’s writers. this sketch is equal parts comedy and therapy
  • @lmamakos
    Please, SNL, you must make a sequel to this sketch for Ryan Gosling's new appearance! New Avatar movies deserve to have this revisited.
  • @5minseg
    The closing title "papyrus" written in COMIC SANS is a genius comedy nugget hidden in plain sight.
