Maybe I just like easy jokes but the close up of Atlas Shrugged had me chortlin'.

That was way way too close to a real ad.

Starts out funny and then takes a weird, dark, disturbing turn at the end? And it's by Adult Swim?

If ever I have a product to market, I'm going to try to contract out to Adult Swim.

It was directed by Fatal Farm, makers of Lasagna Cat! And the scene from "Our Robocop" where everyone gets their dicks shot off! And apparently they do VFX for Key and Peele? And are the originators of this which I had only ever seen in gif form before.

They are 100% geniuses

Pretty amazing satire actually.

Social Media + Toilet Infrastructure?

I knew a person on LJ who kept a second "poop" journal, and she posted pictures of her poops everyday. I never clicked to visit it, because, you know. Poop journal.

She could've been an innovator in this arena.

That was uncomfortably good satire.
