Check it out:

For those of you reading through readers, here are the frame by frame screenshots (gotta read the post for the full flash effect, including the peeing of the pants and the end barf…). In case you’re wondering how these make money, read my Punch the Monkey post.

Frame 3 — … ready?

Frame 4 — ACTION!!
