This might belong in GQ, but it does have to deal with the web and popular culture, so…

It might be justifiably considered racist, but [this crank call](http://www.flatplanet.org/miscellaneous/kerpal1.html) is probably the funniest thing I’ve heard off the net. I also have a .wav of it at work.

I’m just wondering if anyone knows the origin of this. I don’t think it was the Jerky Boys.

Cheers, thanks a lot.

I’m pretty sure it was the Jerky Boys.

Here’s another animation of it:

BTW it’s something you should only listen to with headphones on, or at home… forgot to mention that. :eek:

My favorite lines:

“My dog, she kicked it. And now I’m going to f-k her!”

“I’m going to kill you… no I’m not, I’m just kidding!”

“You don’t ever tell me to f-k! You say bad word.”

“SHUT UP! SHUT UP! SHUT UP!”

and of course, “YOU KNOW DAMN RIGHT!” 😃

Incidentally, I found a cool .mp3 megamix of it. It’s even more hilarious.
