Fun fact: This video was made back around 2009 by a creator named Gizmo using the Nintendo Dsi app called Flipnote Studio. Uploading it to Flipnote Hatena (studios version of YouTube) he was not only one of the funniest animators around BUTT also inspired a lot of my work today!

Absolutely fascinated by press folks who are jumping at the throat to defend the piece and claim everyone is a loser for not agreeing with "mild criticism" and then you read the piece and it reads like a 4chan /v/ shitposter who has been given a gig. Fascinating development.
