It's from the aftercredits of an animated short I just saw: Big Buck Bunny. The rationale for making the video is to test new 3D technologies in Blender, but that doesn't mean that the video isn't amusing. It's quite fun. *leans toward the skritching, thumping foot*

heheh Actually, a LOT of Pixar's short films, in addition to being phenomenal stories, are intended to "test out" some new technology or process. ^_^

Mm... I can believe that. Short things are a good vehicle for testing in many things - at least I think so.
*nuzzles hand* Gaaah... ^_^

What else are middle school students good for? X3
IMO they're probably the hardest group to teach, considering physical changes, emotional changes, and group changes going on all at the same time. *nodnod*
And it's alright; I'm a bit busy here too. :3

Agreed re the students... some will get better through high school, though. smile
aretoo just picked up the first 2 seasons of SNL (well, several days ago now); as well as being a lot of fun, it's a really odd time capsule. smile
(I almost wish there were an option to re-install the original nationally-broadcast commercials, too; wouldn't THAT have been a sign of the times!) ^_^

Oooh... It really must be, considering the shows like to use current events, if I remember correctly. Lin hasn't watched the telly in ages.
I do love commercials though; they're very fun to watch. I'm particularly fond of the extreme commercials of the 90's.
