    Why does it look like it's farting in Japanese?

    @Dick In A Box: Those are speed clouds. You can tell by the gradient in the text. Farting is only done in solid colors. Punching/impacts are also solid colors, but incorporate drop shadows. It's covered in the Professional Illustrators Manual 446th edition.

    If one of my coworkers got one of these I'd modify it to make farting sounds...

    It seems dangerous that it does not come with a brake pedal.

    THIS is what would sell people on electric/hybrid cars. Have your Prius sound like a big block Chevy V8. It would also stop Seeing Eye dogs from getting run over by them.

    @David Jaskowiak: For the love of Pete, it's:


    "You're gonna love my nuts".


    They play this every commercial break right after the Snuggie ad. If after three weeks you can't do most of the commercial from memory, you have a problem.
