VIDEO OF THE YEAR: WHEN’S THE LAST TIME YOU HEARD A GOOD UNIBOMBER JOKE?

Oh, yeah, we know it’s still February, but you’re gonna have trouble beating this one.

Props to T.A.H. Pop Culture Editor Young A.T. for hipping us to this hysterical bit of television…

If you watched the Academy Awards last night, you may have been wondering what presenter Ben Stiller was up to with the wild hair and beard and crazy way of acting while Natalie Portman tried to give out an Oscar or two.

Stiller was spoofing Joaquin Phoenix who showed up on Letterman recently to “promote” his new movie with Gwyneth Paltrow…or, at least, we presume that is what Phoenix’s people told Letterman’s people.

What he actually did was show up and be part of the most awkward interview in the history of television. Anybody else other than David Letterman would have literally run off the stage.

The Oscar, Grammy and Golden Globe winning star of Walk The Line, Gladiator and To Die For among others, announced he has retired from acting and is now pursuing a career in hip hop.

Not surprisingly, Letterman seemed to be annoyed and amused at the same time.

Take a few minutes out of your busy day and enjoy this! It’s a classic.
