Amir initially dials because he is so hungry that it's an emergency, and Jake immediately hangs up the phone. Amir continues to unsuccessfully try to order food, until an exasperated Jake takes the phone and tries to order for the both of them. These episodes involve Amir pretending to be Jocelyn, a character in the show, and trying to get Jake to play along, much to his annoyance.

He talks about them frequently and is often seen eating them. He even put candles in them on his birthday and has attempted to order them at an In-N-Out Burger.
In one episode Amir explains that he orders the "special" which is only the skins of the nuggets and dipping sauce, or "jus' tha skin and tha sauce! He also incorrectly uses the word "comprende" which is the Spanish word for comprehend to mean friend probably in place of the word Compadre. Amir also often uses words like "whatever" and "brother", exchanging the 'er' on the ends of the words to an 'ah' sound. Jake responded by telling him that is was the wrong word, wrong spelling, and wrong phrase.
Amir also uses the word nay instead of not, such as 'I do nay agree with you. During their live appearance at "Street Meat" in June , Jake blocked one of Amir's slaps and slapped him back for the first time. Many episodes end abruptly with Amir saying "Jake. The abrupt termination of episodes is usually executed by ending the episode before the characters have fully played out the situation or to end without letting the audience know the full extent of the punchline.

He seems to be able to do it impossibly fast, as evidenced in the first episode in which it is seen. The episode starts with Amir in normal clothes, cuts to Jake asking a question, then cuts back to Amir, already in the suit. It is implied that the first time he wore it was due to him mistaking the date that Halloween falls on, but it also seems likely that he had just felt like wearing it, and the thought of Halloween never even crossed his mind.
Amir's Freestyles There are several episodes where Amir attempts a freestyle rap that he admits to writing ahead of time, which is the opposite of the definition of a freestyle.
