Most early surrealist/dada literature is similar to this movie's ethos, with absurd humor being used a giant fuck you to the publishers, readers, fellow writers, moral code...etc all the while being really funny and making you question why it's taboo to even do BS like this. Later on the Oulipo crowd is kind of similar, but with a clearly more philosophical and loving edge to it, because someone like Perec was definitely touching on some very heartfelt and lucid stuff regarding modern life beyond the ''gimmicks'' of his novels.
Beckett's Watt could count too. Because it's basically about dropping a character in some terribly absurd situations.
I'm glad this movie got the reappraisal it deserved recently, it's a touch more potent than what Eric Andre was doing, and Tom Green himself is a real interesting guy. A sort of strangely silent disillusioned recluse who only reappears out of his ranch to further twist his act in unexpected directions. I wouldn't be surprised if he secretly was into some real mystical shit. I highly recommend watching his testicular cancer TV special.
