I have only one thing to say about this cartoon: The pleased The Cheat noises and eye flttering in the easter egg somewhat distubed me, while the crying I found hilarious

ORLY?

It was pretty weird, though.

I liked it, I think. I'm gonna have to watch it again, after I sever my leg.

This one was so random that when you press the random toon button, this one should come up every time.

So I watched this for the 4th time today, and it's still the best thing ever.

What I really like about this is that it really shows Strong Bad's inner child, and it also shows that the Cheat is still a child (I'm not sure how cheese/anvils measure age, but you know what I mean). I love it when Strong Bad and the Cheat play make-believe, because that's what I did when I was a kid. Also, I never got my toys from toystores: they were all from McDonalds happymeals. Seriously, they had the best toys back then.

I also liked the scene in which they were playing with the rocket launcher. Everything in this toon reminded me of pleasent memories from my childhood.

Also, this toon reinforces the fact that the Brothers Chaps are a couple of weirdos who will make whatever the random crap they feel like. :mrgreen:

I thought this was... HILARIOUS! I loved how fast the rocket was supposed to go... 23 times the speed of light... oh my god. I thought the whale thing was very... surreal. The leg severance an all that was creepy, and it almost seems like it came from Europa.

Not bad, but not excellent. I like how this short made fun of drive-thru machines you can't understand. :mrgreen: This was pretty random.

That was so random... but I liked it a lot.

Quiet too. Absolutely no music background music...

I saw this at like 6 in the morning, before I went to school, and I thought it was pretty crazy and random, but it made me laugh. "Sever your leg please, sir."


Stupid drive-in speaker making the Cheat cry like that! HE SHOULD BE ASHAMED OF HIMSELF

I'm scared now. Both in general and for the future of the website. Like, for real.

If René Magritte did Flash animation. . . I'm pretty sure he would have done something like this.

This seemed pretty good. I thought the background seemed a little off, and it is, but I'm trying to not think about it by saying it's March and stuff, and this time of year is associated with green.

Anyway, I want the blue. 8.5/10

Anybody else notice that this email came out on the same day (possibly same time) as "Weird" Al's Video for his song "trapped in the drive thru".??

Maybe it's just random luck that it happeneed at the same time but like....maybe they meant to do that?

Haha! I hate those rockets that never launch properly. But I do wish I had a compressor. XD That would be awesome. ^_^

"Sever your leg please." Haha. ^_^

The return of The Cheat crying was interesting. The Cheat...wow, still loves the little toys that come in the meals. XD

Still a weird short though...>_>

This one is my new favorite.

"My The Cheat wants to know what your crappy toy for this week is."
"It's brown."

Er.....


what exactly was that? XD



Oh, well. "Sever your leg, please" will surely become a catchphrase! :P

It is way too easy to get drugs; that is my opinion of this toon.


But seriously, this is an excellent toon. It made my day; I'm going to be watching this ad nauseam for a while.

Heh. Random and funny. I chuckled at the cracky drive-thru (I hate those things! I have no idea whether they have my order right or not!) and the weird sayings.

That's it. Space lobster = new equivalent of Baby Strong Bad/Parrot Thingy/(Other avatar fad here).

Anyone else wondering if TBC watch a lot of Aqua Teen Hunger Force? Because that's what the storyline in this toon is reminding me of, though the style of the humor is still classic Strong Bad.

The ending seemed to be thrown together. It was pretty funny when the space lobster severed it's claw, but then when the whale launched itself it was more bizarre than funny. While I like bizarrely funny, esp with H*R, this just didn't do it for me....

Strong Bad is just a kid trapped in an adult's body, isn't he?

It seems that the field is scattered with randomness (the Death Hole comes to mind...). Personally, I loved it. I can totally empathize with The Cheat. It always seems (er, seemed) that they never have the one crappy toy you need to complete your set. I already have three of the brown ones!

You and CheezNapkin have the idea, I think. This was a *superior* in a string of *goods*, over the last two years. And, welcome!

As for all these comments about the cinematography being a bit different ... I'll re-watch to see; I didn't notice it on first viewing.

"Sever your leg, please, sir." <delight> I will quote that often, I think.

And, StrongRad: I *loved* '500 The Cheats'; it was great; among my favorites. Maybe there is something to this forum theme of 'randomness'. Although I didn't find this too much more random than any of TBC's best ideas.

... I bet that "drive-thru speaker" was actually a rocket from Europa sent down to get some Earthopean lobsters.

Won't they be dissapointed?
