The only internet comedy that ever honeslty made me lol until I cried was Charlie Brooker's original TVGohome site. And that didn't happen all that often. It should still be on the list though.

i've been seeing that everywhere since last night. strange how quickly things become phenomenons. why would someone upload a video like that?
weird that the two big net videos i've been hearing about non-stop for the past 24 hours is this, and the Prop 8 musical on funny or die.

It's more "haha, thank g_d that's not me" laughing than "haha, funny", but then so was 2girls1cup: watching people watch it was the funniest part

Once something like this gets on one of the small number of WTF clearinghouses like 4chan or somethingawful (and it will end up there, guaranteed), internet meme status is only hours away.
