I wasn’t sure which forum to put this in, but ATMB seemed to be the most appropriate…

Anyway, for anyone that liked the Weird URL that was put up today, you might try going [here](http://animutation.mixnmojo.com/anim/pika.htm). It appears to be produced by the same people, with a few celebrity appearances thrown in (and, apparently, more of a japanese influence).

I don’t think I ever laughed so hard.

‘It’s Princess Leia, the yodel of life’ ??? I think I’ll use that as my sig… 😃

Man, talk about a pop cultural overload…

I already have an AYBABTU liscence plate frame. Think I should get an Hyakugojyuuichi sticker now?

If you can tell me what Hyakogojyuuichi translates to, I’ll give you my opinion on that.

## But where’s the fun in knowing its true meaning? Come on, AYB in context with Zero Wing? Dull. With the _Laziest Men on Mars_ music video? It’s high culture!

Ok, do you know anyone who speaks Japanese?
