Crapshots
Crap Shots are very quick video shorts, almost always less than a minute in length. They are the brainchild of Alex Steacy and Graham Stark, though other LRR figures join on on occasion. The humor tends to be more abstract and random, like Alex himself. They were first premiered during Ask An Alex Live, when they were originally called "Pot Shots." The name change was to avoid association with drugs.
