'Workharder' Is The Honest Version Of Kickstarter We Need

Forget Kickstarter, What You Really Need Is 'Workharder'

This goes out to anyone who's ever rolled their eyes at a Kickstarter video, A.K.A, basically everyone.

In a spot-on crowdfunding parody written and directed by comedian Jena Friedman, "Workharder" advertises a special kind of service -- one that won't result in any funding whatsoever.

Instead of getting people to donate money to your half-baked idea or "talent," Workharder uses "public shaming tools" to make sure your friends and family give you the encouragement you need to make your dream come without mooching off of others.

Watch the video and check out Friedman's Benefit For West Africa Relief in New York City on Wednesday; 100 percent of the profits will go toward Doctors Without Borders's fight against Ebola.
