I thought for a few minutes they referenced my "first" anime but...*sigh*...no. Oh, well. Still hysterical. *grins*

Deadpan humor is great. This is right up there with "Algorithm March With Ninjas" (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qDSGmx8c2AM) in my Funny Ninja Hall of Fame. :-)

There's that icon again. :-) Alas, just generic ninjas, but wonderful nonetheless. (I'm particularly impressed by the "sighting" and, being a writerly sort of person, have been mulling over what might have happened to that poor sod afterward ... )

What's wrong with Disco Lava Jesus? It's my only Gatch icon, after all! *needs more, must remember to poke [profile] x_expat*

I hope you don’t mind if I pipe in for a moment, but I do love your Ed/Winry icon. So very, very pretty. That is all. :)

Nothing. I was noting its reappearance with amusement. [taps emoticon] Is this thing on? :-) ;-) ;-/ :-) Seems to be ...

I wasn't sure their style would translate to video when they first went that route. Silly me. :-)

...Great. Now I can't avoid not showing this to my friends in production class tonight as a means of distraction provoking creative inspiration. Thanks a lot. ;)

And I had no idea that The Onion had started doing video reports until this post. Eep. *feels hopelessly out of the loop as she saves "Mean Automakers Dash Nation's Hope for Flying Cars" for later viewing* ^^;

You're welcome. Always happy to spread the inspiration. Now I just need to point some of it at my own work [raises meaningful eyebrow at "Calling Names", latest WIP].
