So, I notice that Graham was the only one without a leather, striped jacket in the opening. Does that mean he's the leader of the team, or , probably this option, he's still trying to get milage out of the jacket from the Rapstar finale?


those jackets were all nylon windbreakers, btw. about af far from leather as humanly possible.

Wait... this hasn't already happened? Seriously, I don't think LRR is bringing anything ultranew to the table here.

I'm suprised that no one has mentioned that borington.com exists and is awesome.

Great vids guys!

The space jump one is particularly funny 'cause it seems like Morgan is genuinely pissed. (Seeing that he played Metroid 3 during Desert Bus 2, he must know that game backwards and forwards)

You have recieved many awards, been given countless compliments, but understand this: tonight you took on 'Sharks in Venice' and were more entertaining. [Emperor Gum removes his hat, and bows very deeply]

I have donated my facebook status and Twitter for the viral video cause. I just hope it works.
Also the opening for the commodoreHustle was amazing, along with the whole episode.
Viral videos were good too.

I'm guessing most people realized this before I did, but excessive amounts of alcohol make it much easier for one to make "normal" youtube comments.

Although I'm still a little afraid of the "I said WHAT about a LRR crew member!?" hangover, I'm going to try to sell these as best I can.

I just reged because I got hooked on you guys over the weekend.

This episode isn't as cool, but the FLCL joke caused me to injure my nostrels with the soda I was drinking.

The top two viral videos with a high chance of success on Youtube is Graham getting hit in the nuts by the Nunchaku and Matt getting yelled out for not fucking Space Jumping. I swear that should be a catch phrase.

I'm still loling over that video.

I think the idea to just straight copy other stupid Youtube comments from other videos is genius. It goes hand in hand with creating viral videos on purpose that draw on previous ones.

By copying the comments, you further the illusion, but also futher the tie back to previous videos. Like a movie quote in a movie!

Borington's site is so boring that it crashes firefox everytime.

I LOVED the video, all of it, the promo had me thinking: wtf? but I burst out laughing when James came out looking like a 80's hero and Paul explaining.

I subscribed, watched and passed on to my friends the virals.

Paul looks really, REALLY creepy in those videos.

Oh, and the episode was top notch again, but you already knew that. Also I spotted your borington ustream broadcast on your LRR account about a week ago. Didn't know what it meant, though. Also, there's youtube comments limits? Huh.

Also I loved how the intro played out like a Might Morphin' Power Rangers Episode, and just like in real life* 4 out of 5 members shotgunned Red Ranger.

*We've all done the "what if we were the power rangers" thing, right?

Most epic Ranger ever was Tommy's Green Ranger. The shield, the dagger, the Zord...they were all so fucking awesome.

Does anyone else find it sounds like he says "Jews!" as we walks away from Adam and James?

Matt wrote:please, everyone share these videos.

commenting is great. sending them to friends (and telling those friends they're real) is better.

Also recommend: Favouriting SOME, not all, just one or two (So people don't automatically see they're linked) with other random ones thrown in. This way your friends\subscribers get to see what you've favourited and see as well.

Same deal with subscriptions too.

Also, I've been adding retarded comments under both my accounts, again as to not draw suspicion. That nunchuck one looks bloody real\painful. :P "JUST FUCKING SPACE JUMP" also needs to be a meme.

NOW. :P

Can we please have permission to raid /b/ with this? :)

Kathleen's is currently in the lead, for obvious reasons. And I in absolutely no way contributed to that. Yep.

Only Graham can pull off such an epic and convincing nut-shot like that. I read every comment there and I think we can all agree that YouTube is filled with the collective idiots of the world.

This is crazy.

My mind has just been blown trying to figure out how to explain what I just saw. commodoreHUSTLE is scripted acting, then in the script of CH you wrote scripts and acted them, then following the script of CH you put the videos on youtube. But the videos actually are on youtube, which means that LRR has twisted reality to the point that scripts written in a script appear to be real to some people, and at the same time the skit which produced them appears to have been real. You've just divided the internet by zero.

I feel the same way, because I think I could totally do a feminazi-like rant on Kathleen's video on Metachat.org, but I really don't want to come across as some evil fat tart who's jealous of someone skinnier than I am (which Kathleen is).

I mean, she's not even shaking them well, and there's far too little cleavage...

I think Kathleen's vid is the best, since it's somehow so very neutral. It's not erotic, it's not non-erotic, it's just sort of there.


YES. In my ideal world, everyone who watches it says, "man, I'm not turned on at all. But I do feel very, very awkward."

This sort of thing doesn't come naturally to me. But feel free to make fun of me for betraying the feminist cause. It can always be argued that I was trying to be ironic.
