I like how this brings a little bit of delightful black culture to whites.

I see that threebrain guy just keeps on keepin' on. Not really sure why though.

Oh my god. Unbearably stupid.

This brought back memories of Koko the Talking Monkey and how I used to sing this song in my head. I've matured somewhat from then.

This is a viral for the American Egg Board. He works for the AEB's ad agency.

Just to be clear I'm referring to the linked animator, not orville sash.

I like my eggs laid. Can you lay an egg?

Eggs, previously on metafilter.

After a nice night on the town, a few drinks, and an invitation for the egg to come up and see my "etchings", I'd give myself pretty good odds, yeah.

Viral for the national egg board

I mean, there is a fair amount of evidence that you are right, that this is a viral ad for the National Egg Board, but rather than diminishing my appreciation of it, that kind of makes me enjoy it even more. I mean, this is their viral ad campaign? A half completed website with two flash animations and a couple of weird blog entries?

The whole thing is so ridiculous. I also love the idea of one breakfast food coming out against another. Eggs hate waffles! In my head, they also have a strong distaste for cereal, but they're indifferent toward bacon and toast.

Oh well. I'm ok with it being a viral ad.

I see the Egg man got to you too!

I will not stand for this waffle bashing.
