Four “besties with testes” (aka best friends, duh!) sit around a living room watching “The Biggest Loser” and chatting about their daily caloric intake, their relationship issues, and the wonders of Pinkberry in a recent video posted by the Harvard Sailing Team (HST) – a comedy group that actually has no connection whatsoever to Harvard and has no sailing skills, as far as we know.

The HST wishes there was an awesome story behind their name, but Rebecca Brey, a member of the group, explained that in truth there’s not much rationale behind it. “We started our sketch comedy group over 5 years ago and when we were coming up with names someone suggested Harvard Sailing Team as a name and that we wear argyle,” Brey wrote to us in an e-mail. (Are they calling us preppy?!)

The video, in which a group of guys pretends to be a group of stereotypically clingy, calorie-counting girls, begins with the boys feeling a bit peckish. They talk about sharing something small to eat and agree to, but not before one of them makes sure to check in with his girlfriend about whether they’re planning on eating later on in the day. They are. All of a sudden the other boys seem less hungry too. Maybe they had big breakfasts? “I actually digested a huge gust of wind on my way to work…” one of the guys admits.

The topic of Pinkberry comes up. “Wait…what’s Pinkberry?” one friend asks. The others are shocked. “It’s tots the best 100-cal Froyo. Every guy should have a knowledge of it.”

We found this video amusing, but you can decide for yourself. For those who find it offensive, the HST also made a similar video called “Girls Will Be Boys” that features football and lots of food, which might balance out the stereotypes in this one.
