This is really, really funny:

Well, actually, it’s not even a little funny…

… Well, actually, the punchline is the funniest thing I’ve see yet this year. I can hardly type I’m laughing so hard.

    This is an excellent example of why one must always wait for the end!

    You know, he probably reacted the same way to the Watchmen movie.

    …but cartography is critically important!

    I had a very mixed attitude about this Downfall parody. On the one hand it has some pretty funny moments. (“and to point at a map like this.”) The punchline was also witty.

    But part of the humor of the Downfall meme is the incongruity. The “Hitler” isn’t a stand in for a group accused of spewing hate or propaganda. In this case, there seems to be an almost implicit Godwin’s Law going on. It seems like there are actual political opponents being compared to Nazis in this even if just implicitly. That’s not cool.

    Joshua – If you do not lighten up, you will be forced to go to the Comedy Re Education Camp and undergo a re-grooving dude!

    Josh: It is helpful to contextualize this. I’m posting two other videos by the same person (tomorrow?) which may do that. Or, you can click through to YouTube and watch them. The Republican Homeland one is highly recommended. You will pee in your pants laughing, and that pee will wash away all concern regarding the Hitler=Opposition link.
