Animated Fridays!

I don't exactly know why I think this is the funniest thing ever, but I do.

I can almost imagine the accompanying dramatic soundtrack that would so perfectly punctuate the camera zoom.

I watched it a few times and tried different soundtracks. I like the "Oh Gerbil..." one.

Turnaround, every now and then I know
you'll never be the boy you always you wanted to be
Turnaround, every now and then I know
you'll always be the only boy who wanted me the way that I am
Turnaround, every now and then I know
there's no one in the universe as magical and wonderous as you
Turnaround, every now and then I know
there's nothing any better and there's nothing I just wouldn't do
Turnaround bright eyes, Every now and
then I fall apart
Turnaround bright eyes, Every now and
then I fall apart

It's the deadpan expression. It's the hypnotic turn to the camera. It's girls on film. It's finding out that your angel is the centerfold and she's a gerbil.
It's cinematic bliss.

It reminds me of a soap opera when they turn towards the camera and do the dramatic pause. It is usually preceded by something like, "Did you sleep with my mother, Flint?"

*Knock.. knock* - Door opens - Someone long missed, an antagonist, the marshal..? (OR, in that case, the snake..HA) Face to face with the one invisible for the viewer, and the background music gets dramatic.. to be continued!! Dang.

I was really excited that Michael enjoyed this so much.We both laughed and watched it like 15 times. I was silently impressed by his humor than I thought...he is four...I think It is a statement about my level of humor rather than his.

No one here seems aware that this has actually spawned a whole genre of videos on YouTube, where it is known as the Dramatic Chipmunk or sometimes, the Dramatic Prairie Dog:
