Hilarious video shows the downside to dating a younger guy

By Nick Bond

In a hilarious new sketch video published to YouTube this week, comedians and actors Sam Pancake and Brian Jordan Alvarez explore the downside to dating a younger guy.

The pair play a couple who, after one passing mention of legendary actress Gena Rowlands by Sam’s character that leaves his younger boyfriend blank-faced, descend into an increasingly exasperated argument about their generational differences:

We love this video but we have one public service announcement: we don’t care how young or old your beau is, if he has to ask you ‘Who’s John Waters?’ – shut it down. That’s a deal breaker.

You might remember Alvarez from his earlier, wonderfully ridiculous YouTube video, ‘What actually happens when gay guys see other gay guys and straight people aren’t around’:
