Probably with the release of Ep. 7 they'll start spreading it around.

According to at least one youTube commentator the cat has already been let "out of the bag".

He seems like a jerk though, so I think he's bluffing. The press release will probably come April or May time.

April first is also a scant five days before the next Hustle release. That's hardly confirmation of anything as it just occurred to me, but the timing is serendipitous . . .

Yeah, I was hoping you'd unveil on April Fools. It would be too good.

I'm still waiting for some media outlet to out them before they do it. Right now it seems that either no one believes the people in the comments telling the truth, or no one cares.

But still, this is getting bigger by the second.

Son of a bitch! He should be shot and pissed on!

... or perhaps we'll just shake our fists at him with impotent rage. Yes, that sounds like a more appropriate response.

I had my reservations about supporting this because it IS widespread deception, but these things, like all pranks, have to be measured by how much harm they can do. This one is harmless. To expose it is ruining everyone's fun, and that can be quantified as harm.

Are we sure that's Saki, or someone just pretending to be him so we go after Saki for real? If it's really him, then shame on him. That'd be like if Cybertractor exposed it or something. They of all people should know that there's no malice in this. If they don't understand that, they shouldn't even bother coming here.

(sigh) If anyone needs me, I'll be in the angry dome.

I was kidding. I'm not actually angry. we aren't ACTIVELY making any real attempt to keep this secret, beyond deleting the comments on our own versions of the videos that out us. there is no large-scale way for us to do some mass-reveal, so there's little point in getting keyed up on eiter side of the fence.

True, but I think 'asshole' is a perfectly apt description for that kind of behavior.

Someday, those words will be interchangable.

Man, you're such an internet!

I'm surfing the asshole. (The Butthole Surfers are hailed as prophets!)

I have a fissure in my internet.

My asshole is not a big truck!

No reason to really be upset with sakimori about it. People are going to start spreading the word at some point--it might as well be when the video is in the height of its popularity!

"matrix" is interchangable with "nipples" in the movie "The Matrix."

Screenplay for The Nipples wrote:Morpheus : At last. Welcome, Neo. As you no doubt have guessed, I am

Morpheus.

Neo : It's an honour to meet you.

Morpheus : No, the honour is mine....Please, come, sit.

Neo sits down in the armchair.

Morpheus : I imagine that right now you're feeling a bit like Alice...

Neo : .....?

Morpheus : Tumbling down the rabbit hole? Hmm?

Neo : You....could say that.

Morpheus : I can see it in your eyes. You have the look of a man who

accepts what he sees, because he is expecting to wake up.

Ironically, this is not far from the truth....

Morpheus sits down in the armchair opposite from Neo

Morpheus : Do you believe in fate, Neo?

Neo : No.

Morpheus : Why?

Neo : Because I don't like the idea that I'm not in control of my

own life.

Morpheus : I know..._exactly_ what you mean. Let me tell you why you're

here. You're here because you know something. What you know,

you can't explain. But you feel it. You've felt it your

entire life. That there's something _wrong_ with the world.

You don't know what it is, but it's there...like a splinter

in you're mind, driving you mad. It is this feeling that has

brought you to me. Do you _know_ what I'm talking about?

Neo : The Nipples?

Morpheus : Do you want to know...._what_ _it_ is....?

Neo nods

Morpheus : The Nipples is everywhere. It's all around us, even in this

very room. You can see the Nipples when you look out your window or

when you turn on your television. You can feel The Nipples when you

go to work, when you pay your taxes.

The Nipples is the world that has been pulled over your eyes,

to blind you from the truth.

Neo : What truth?

Morpheus : That you are a slave, Neo. Like everyone else, you were born

into bondage, born into a prison that you cannot smell or

taste or touch. A prison...for your mind....Unfortunatly,

no one can be..._told_ what the Nipples is...you have to see

the Nipples for yourself.

Confusion that could once again have been avoided simply by reading Matt's signature. To clarify, I wasn't angry either.

it was obviously a slow day. as someone who has considered going into journalism this is a good sign - you can put any old crap (the coments not the vid) on a nifty looking website and you still appear credible as a journalist.

I'm pretty sure that Late Night with Jimmy Fallon isn't going for journalistic integrity at the best of times.
