One thing I love about the internet is being able to view....cultural artifacts.....like this completely out of context, with no explanation as to where it comes from. Please don't give me any context.

Shouldn't this have some sort of TTWSIYH warning attached? I.E., This Tune Will Stick In Your Head . . . and drive you absolutely insane. However, having said that, I love a happy einde. Joepieee (pffrrrrrt) to you right back, onkelchrispy.

Either it's from the Netherlands, or I've found the pig's weblog.

Without knowing a single thing, I swear this is revolutionary propaganda for Chickens to stand up and lay some fowl eggs against their masters.

I welcome our flatu..nevermind.

Just in case someone can't view this, here's how it goes:

1) You'll want to laugh, but you won't.

B) So you'll get confused.

Ba) Which will make you angry.

3)You'll want to hurt something.

4) You'll make a farting noise with your mouth.

7) It'll start over.

Anyone wanna lay down bets on when the first dance remix is released?

tittergrrl: It's already begun :) Hopefully I'll finish before this hammers the final nail into the coffin of my madness.

Anyway, who wants to lay down bets on how long it'll take FARK to name a stadium Pfrrt?

Just because someone foreign makes a silly animation, that does NOT make it the "best of the web".

What a complete waste of time...

It's as if the Kids of Whitney High went electronic. It's the Hamster Dance remix all over again.

It's an animation for a Belgian kids show called Big en Betsy. Fopje flauw mopje!

In one of those incongruous twists that seems somehow to be just right, the chickens sing with male voices.

It made me laugh, but, I tell ya, onkelchrispy, if that 'la la laaaaa' chorus won't stop running through my brain, I will hunt you down and kill you.

I feel sorry for Betsy. She's trying to run a farm and there's this relentlessly flatulent pig causing fart related hijinks. It makes me stop and think about my own behaviour. Parp!

Here's a live-action clip (yes, complete with flatulent swine): Big en Betsy (.wmv)

I like this--it's odd and Swedish and it's delightful in a "Fuzzy bunny burns London while the space sturgeon frolic" sort of way. Translation, anyone?

I liked how lovingly the anal gas clouds were animated.

Here's another lovely Big en Betsy video (again, craptacular .wmv).
This one has Betsy and her friends dancing around in clouds of Big's stink.

If anyone's interested, "flopje flauw mopje" translates very roughly into "little fools tell insipid little jokes". I guess it's something you'd have to be Flemish to understand.

stirfry: that was disturbing. I wish I didn't watch every single one of them.
