A couple bickers in a laundromat in the Hal Hartley-esque 2000 short film 100% COTTON
P.J. Raval's short is barely over four minutes and features deliberately deadpan delivery, but it encapsulates a relationship falling apart in a nutshell with only the slightest hint of drama.

Evening Entertainment: Patton Oswalt, Brian Posehn and Sarah Silverman in the comic book store pilot SUPER NERDS
How does a sitcom featuring noted Andy Milligan fan Patton Oswalt and current "Deadpool" writer Brian Posehn working in a comic book store not get picked up? Espeically when it has Sarah Silverman as a customer? The laugh track doesn't help and it lacks some polish, but there's certainly potential there. It's still an interesting piece of nerd culture history, though when it was made in 2000, it may have been a bit ahead of the times in terms of the cultural zeitgeist, as Evan Dorkin's similar WELCOME TO ELTINGVILLE pilot suffered the same fate two years later. Watch it before it gets pulled!
