Are you 'endearingly sweaty, hairy, lewd...?'

This just came in from the folks at Adult Swim and wins our coveted "Press Release of the Day" trophy. A No-Prize is in the mail now...

Carl2_2 Adult Swim today announced the nationwide search for a Carl look-alike to appear in the first-ever live action episode of "Aqua Teen Hunger Force." The search will begin Saturday, July 26, from 3:00 to 6:00 p.m., at the Omni Hotel in San Diego during this year’s Comic-Con convention, what some consider to be the epicenter of Carl-like men.

Aqua Teen Hunger Force, one of Adult Swim’s most popular animated action-adventure, comedy-dramas, follows the strange everyday lives of three human-sized food products who live in New Jersey.  Their next-door neighbor is Carl, a simple man who’s endearingly sweaty, hairy, lewd, fashion-challenged, horny, nasty and oftentimes annoying.  All men remotely fitting that description are encouraged to show up.  It would also help to be bald, have a mustache and wear a dirty white tank top, sweat pants and flip-flops.  For background, video of Carl’s awesomeness can be seen at AdultSwim.com.  Aqua Teen Hunger Force co-creator, Dave Wills, who is also the voice of Carl, will be on site at the San Diego search.

I'm making a mental note to avoid the Omni at all costs on Saturday afternoon.
