I'm gonna go ahead and use this thread to ask if there's a way to turn off those annoying boxes in youtube videos, or are they a part of the video itself?

I suppose I should quickly point out to fans that there is also a full-length (22 minute) episode of Everybody Loves Hypnotoad. It's an extra feature on the Bender's Big Score DVD. Having just watched it, I feel very . . . calm.

That's a 9 minute video that was worth 1 second of watching...

What the hell is this thing from? I know google will tell me, but I've been seeing it far too much lately. I don't get it.

But then I don;t get a lot of the memes.

Anythings is possible with Hypnotoad. Anything at all. The only limit is yourself.

Hypnotoad is one of the older memes of the internet, post flash. The wikipedia article only mentions Futurama, which didn't create Hypnotoad.

ALL GLORY TO THE HYPNOTOAD.

loquacious - Hypnotoad is absolutely an invention of Futurama. Maybe there was something prior that inspired it, but you're going to have to show... ALL GLORY TO THE HYPNOTOAD!

No, it's not. It predates Futurama on the net by a number of years. I first saw Hypnotoad as a small Flash loop. Check out the link I posted above.

Hypnotoad is much bigger than Futurama. Your disobedience has been noted. ALL GLORY TO THE HYPNOTOAD.

Oh, and best ALL GLORY TO THE HYPNOTOAD line of the new Futurama: "Way to ruin the franchise, Bakula."

(FYI the first appearance of Hypnotoad on Futurama was apparently "The Day the Earth Stood Stupid," which first aired on February 18, 2001.)

So, I love the hypnotoad, but I have a life. Does he do anything or do anything annotations pop up to reward the full 9 minutes?
