Bloody students

Oooooookkkaaaayyyy.

I'm sure I'm missing something deep and philosophical here but this is the type of thing that makes me all seethy and half wish I'd never been to university.

Unless of course, it's just a spoof. In which case this is the type of thing that makes me all seethy and half wish I'd never grown eyes.

Howling with laughter. Where/how did you find this?

Well, that's planted a couple of critical goalposts, several miles apart.

Was forwarded on Twitter. And I think it's a piss-take, but yes, I did stuff like this when I was at university, and I was never quite sure whether I was serious or not.

LOL. Glad you shared this, Tim! I actually show this in my film class at University (when I'm lucky enough to get to teach it). It's actually a very close parody of an Ingmar Bergman film called PERSONA, told via knock-knock joke. (Those old 'Obsession') perfume commercials borrowed this technique, too). So while it's got all the sort of conceit of a student art film, it's also very self-aware of its own inherent sillyness, I think. And it's a riot!

Anyway, good find this conversation. Gracias! -- Mike Arnzen, http://www.gorelets.com/
