MONTREAL — Comedian and director David Wain’s popular web series, Wainy Days, has long been a comedy anomaly amongst Internet-produced humor. Much like the defining body of Wain’s 20-year career – ranging from his days with The State and Stella on to his illustrious directorial path – the Wainy Days series is irreverent and strange; charming and disarming while still providing enough schlocky shock humor to keep the college crowd
