Watch Obama Ask Boehner for Advice as He Prepares for Post–White House Life

One of the funniest moments in a White House Correspondents’ Dinner that was decidedly short on laughs was a pre-taped video that President Obama showed to joke about his decision to stay in Washington, D.C., after he leaves office. The video starts out with reporters joking about the president’s decision. “F–k you, Chuck Todd,” Obama says.*

Vice President Joe Biden makes a cameo as a melancholic Obama lies down on his couch wondering what he should do with his life. And there’s even room for a birth-certificate joke in a little scene that takes place at a (very fancy) DMV.

The highlight of the video though is when Obama suddenly realizes who could help him out. “I know who I need to talk to,” the president says. All of a suddent Obama and John Boehner are watching a Toy Story movie. (Boehner is crying, obviously.) “So, got any advice for me?” Obama asks the former speaker. Boehner tells the president to just be himself, and Obama says he would start wearing his mom jeans again. “Yesterday, I had a beer at 11:30 in the morning, and you know McDonald’s now serves breakfast all day long,” Boehner says, before proceeding to tempt Obama with a cigarette.
