About

A striking satire of American consumerism and commercialism, disguised as a common animutation. If aliens came to Earth and demanded to see what an animutation was, this is probably what we should show them.

Audio Details

• The song is not a serious performance, but rather a skit from a comedy routine whose popularity spawned music videos. The topic: politics. Intrestingly, the fanimutation parallels the original song's satirical message.

Trivia

• Shockwave Flashback is a remake of this fanimutation by Andrew Kepple.
• The record in the 'Colin Mochrie record player' section spins backwards. Vinyl records ordinarily spin clockwise; this one spins counter-clockwise. Near the end of this section, the caption "ÖÖÖÖ <-- Aaugh, bears!" appears for a brief moment as a reference to the game ZZT.
• The chess game after the Parappa scene is a Scholar's Mate.
• Several references to the Space Ghost: Coast to Coast episode "Chambraigne" can be found in this animutation:
  • During the second cloud sequence, a picture of Al Roker accompanied by the text "Shampoo for your hair!" followed by "...and your brain!"
  • At the end, the randomly selected sound clips "I don't need large brains to have a good time" and "Come on, Costas! Start somethin'!"
  • Also at the end, the text "Continued use may result in limb loss".
