I don't think we've done this already. Last night I came across one of the strangest, disturbing, and outrageous shorts ever. How about a thread of great shorts for the crew to consider. I humbly suggest it'll be tough to top this one...

This one was actually shown to me during my training as a meat inspector. I think the trainer was just trying to find a diversion. I had to struggle not to laugh at the riffs I came up with in my head.
It begins with a super over dramatic house call from a doctor that is just hilarious.

Doctors are doing those house calls again. It's called concierge service. Just pay a few thousand for a retainer per year, then pay per visit, and it's just like the good old days again if you've got the bucks.

Wow sky, that short went from 0-wierd in 3 minutes. Pretty amazing? Can you see the gun situation being handled like that now... Come on son, let's talk. You just shot your pistol within feet of thirty kids. Maybe you should talk with the school physiologist. |

OK, I'm ready to succeed with brunettes now. Do I salute them only when saying goodbye or when I greet them too? Are we sure this works with blondes also?

i thought this was a dating tips short from the '70's, but if it is, it's pretty unclear what they are trying to go for. basically it is about a girl at a party who harshes everyone's buzz.
this one also has a bit of a cliff hanger ending. or perhaps the people who made it were so high on "grass" that they assumed it was over. the biggest crime in this short is that one girl's teeth and the wallpaper in the other girl's kitchen, imo.

a clip from a short called women are consumers or consuming women, made in 1967. i'd love to see the whole thing.
*shot of the woman consumer bowling and watching the outcome hopefully* ..."she's athletic..."
apparently it's a gutter ball - she looks disappointed - "...to a degree..." but then you see a shot of her putting money into someone's hand for a wrapped package - "...but she DOES spend money!"
