Admit it. On more than one occasion in the past year you've been inspired to quote Lin-Manuel Miranda's HAMILTON in normal conversation.
Maybe you met some crashing bore at a party who you advised to, "Talk less, smile more."
Maybe you were playing a friendly game of basketball and even though a teammate was open, you insisted, "I am not throwing away my shot!"
Whatever the case, this very funny video written and directed by Rob McCollum tells of the good work being done at the Weehawken Institute for the Treatment of Hamilaria, to help those suffering from this emerging social disorder.
