Mikheyev and Engvall are like every girlfriend I've ever had and even my wife: great assets (skating in their case) but nothing's perfect. The way to look at them is exactly how I look at my love life: if they were perfect, they wouldn't have been with me. Pretty good though.

I think they just love that gif - to be fair, it’s a future classic and I hope it never dies - time and place though lol
