No more… no more… Stupid badgers. Stupid mushrooms. Stupid Snake. ---

It reminded me of Talking Heads and, God I don’t why, the Macarana. Just shoot me. ---

My personal choice of ending would be for the snake to eat all the badgers, then, while fully bloated, decide a bite of mushroom would be the perfect thing to nibble on for dessert. The mushroom turns out to be poisonous, after he’s eaten it all. Final score: no more badgers, no more mushroom, one dead (but very full) snake. ---

Well, if they’re frozen, at least they won’t be stinking badgers. ---

I lasted four hours and 10 minutes before having to turn it off, though I had to restart a couple of times 'cause it got all echo-ey and stuff. I like badgers. Especially their dancing. For the record, the first two verses of “badgerbadger…mushroommushroom” contain twelve iterations of the word “badger” before going to the “mushroommushroom” part. The next three verses contain only eleven iterations of “badger” (then “mushroommushroom”) before continuing on to “snake snake oooooo…it’s a snake.” ---

I never would have waited three hours if the music wasn’t so darn catchy. 🙂 But the end is just as dumb as the rest of it; it’s definitely not worth the wait. \*\* **Three HOURS?** :eek: OK. I’m not willing to let it run that long. Anyone wanna clue me in to what happens at the end? That or tell me how to run the damned movie to the end. My Flash player plugin doesn’t seem to be providing a fast-forward control. ---

But I **did** turn “Loop” off in the pop-up, and the damned thing kept going like the Energizer Bunny™. I only let it play for about 5 minutes before I got sick of it. ---

I left it on all night. It was playing (audibly) downstairs while I slept upstairs. When I woke up it was really screwed up. And I actually had quite a good night’s sleep. Go Badgers. ---

**Algorithm**! If we ever meet, I am going to sic badgers on you, and at a very high velocity, throw mushrooms at your head! I woke up this morning, and whilst cooking breakfast for my daughters, found myself intoning under my breath: “Badgers Badgers Badgers Badgers…” ahhhhhhgggghhhh! make it stop! ---

What is it about that darn clip??? I’ve been back 4 or 5 times since this was posted! I even e-mailed the link to all my buds, and got 5 re:'s about it. All of them basically said the same thing - they don’t know why but they liked it. Snaaake…It’s a Snaaaaaaaaake!
