The Bloder Brothers are recurring characters from the American late night sketch comedy television series Saturday Night Live played by Jimmy Fallon and Chris Parnell. The two brothers, Kip (Fallon) and Wayne (Parnell), make obnoxious jokes, no matter what situation, and laughing incessantly at themselves. Their laughter is characteristically low-key and sounds extremely forced. They usually go back and forth, taking turns making jokes, which are generally little more than puns or comic references based on whatever situation they are in, much to the chagrin of whoever happens to be listening to them. They often try to pick up women, but they appear to be uncomfortable and their constant joking usually gets in the way. The more uneasy they appear to be, the more they joke and laugh. When thoroughly defeated, they occasionally go back and forth between crying and laughing (apparently at nothing).
In one sketch, their father, Kurt Bloder (played by Jon Stewart), appears and exhibits behavior just like the two.
