Not even a chuckle.

And Ze Frank should sue.

These will pair well with the Puppy Bowl.

I love Ze. I loved him more before he became corporate... That was about 1.5 minutes longer than it needed to be.

Ze Frank was better when he wasn't sponsored. But I still got to look at cats.

That is how I observe such gatherings of humans. Am... Am I a cat? Have you all just not told me? Also that is how I pronounce vacuum now.

Buzzfeed is a private company, so technically it's not corporate. But Friskies = Purina = Nestlé, so, that, yes.

That's an interesting definition of the word "corporate," and one I'd not heard before. Why aren't large private corporations corporate?

Ze Frank has a decent shtick. It's a shame he's working for Nestlé. It can be very hard to calibrate one's moral landscape to work out how to interact with various corporates in ways that don't batter the soul too much, but Nestlé is one of the easier ones to just plain avoid.

I had to compete with my love of cats and my irritation that no commercial--Internet or otherwise--should be nearly four freakin' minutes long.

Well, they are, but when they pull iffy shit you get to blame specific people! So they're not just corporate.

Man, tough crowd! I loved the doorbell bit, since my two cats also freak out EVERY SINGLE TIME it rings. Also, I wanta to licka your face.

HuronBob: I love Ze. I loved him more before he became corporate... That was about 1.5 minutes longer than it needed to be.

Since Ze started out a lowly advertising drone, this sentence is confusing to me.

You loved him when he was in high school?

Well, unless you are in the thankless, unyielding grip of addiction . . .
