Man you guys had me going. I did not read that it was a spoof, I actually opened a new browser screen to look for Flutter. When the video got to the girl with the glasses reading the Flutter feed, I’m still laughing.

Great spoof!

Ha! wrking 4 project underwear!

The look the chick with the glasses got was classic. I want a pair. Or maybe I just want to stare that way from time to time.

I love the randomness of 26 characters, yea! the English alphabet. That was great, thanks for the post! :P
