This stupid Yatta thing

Is anyone else completely sick of this dumb flash cartoon?

I mean, I'll admit it was maybe a LITTLE amusing the first time I saw it, but since then, it's just gotten very irritating. But these people around me don't seem to get it. They act like it's JUST as funny as ever. I DON'T UNDERSTAND HOW A RATIONAL HUMAN BEING COULD NOT BE IRRITATED BY THIS AFTER SEEING IT A DOZEN TIMES!! IF I HEAR SOMEONE YELLING "S-S-S-S-Q-Q-Q-Q-OHIO" AT THE TOP OF HIS LUNGS AGAIN, I'M GOING THROW MY TV SET AT HIM!!

If you don't know what I'm talking about, you don't need to answer. If you go to a large, state-funded college, I suspect that you probably do know, however.

Anyway, it's nowhere near as funny as something that actually took some creative thought and effort to develop, such as, say, Strong Bad.

Actually, it's not.

I wanna get a baseball-style jacket with a baseball-style logo that says "fhqwhgads" on the back of it. But they don't make that.

I think I would feel bad about myself if I were to expose you to such inane torture.

So, no. Consider yourself lucky if you haven't seen it.

Oh it must be that bad! Hooray! No torture!

I LOVE StrongBad!

He is KING CRAP! I want a StrongBad action figure with Kung-Fu grip!

There is nothing on that site that is NOT FUNNY.

People are still posting that? It's at least two years old now.

Yeah, Strong Bad is awesome. Forget the Kung-foo grip though! I want the one with the glow-in-the-dark abs that smells like hotcakes

That one has a cool Easter Egg. If you click on Strongbad's Peanut Action Figure at the end, it goes to a little thing showing all sorts of other action figures for the various characters on the site.

Still, none of the other emails beats the Strong Bad Techno one yet.

My friend and I walked around school singing the Strongbadia flag day song.

Ah, memorys...

Heh. Yeah, I found that the other day. The latest "ghost" one made me think to look for easter eggs in the other ones.

I actually first ran across HomeStar Runner about 2 years ago when it wasn't that big.

I too shall also affirm my love for Homestar Runner and Strong Bad.
Whenever somebody asks my what my major is, I always tell them Total Spaceship Guy.

Strongbad taught me how to read someones butt IQ, also what the property of a one is!

I liked the original Yatta video better, with the naked Japanese boy band wearing fig leaves amidst a horde of screaming girls.

Yatta!

No, see, they're both freaking stupid. If you think they're funny rather than one of the most irritating things on the planet after having seen them several times, I think there's something wrong with your sense of humor.

Unless you're Japanese/whatevercountryitoriginallycamefrom. I don't really speak the language, but were they intending to make fun of boy bands in the US? Because if they were... well then, I suppose extreme irritation was the correct mood to shoot for.

That's almost exactly it. Making fun of Boy bands. However, it was a skit first on a Japanese show similar to SNL or Mad TV that they made into a spin off thing. (Like Wayne's World or Superstar) But, it is supposed to be a parody. I kinda like it in an odd way, but then again, it's me saying that. The song has gotten annoying now though. ^^;

Said the genius who watched it more than once. Moderation, and stop hitting yourself. That's all the advice I can give you.
