It has come to the attention of Hippopotamus that there are a number of you out there who do not clearly understand what we are or why we have so much time on our hands. And when we say "a number of you" we mean people with friends and a life.

Contrary to the assumptions of the media and most girls, Hippopotamus is not simply "a group of super hackers" (which is to say, Indian dudes). Among our numbers you will find individuals from all walks of life - programmers, computer scientists, IT professionals, visual effects supervisors, lonely college students, creepy loners and more. No wait, that just about covers it.

Hippopotamus is a collective of individuals united by an awareness that someone must do the right thing. Just like the Japanese guy on Heros during the first season, when Heros was cool. Not in the second season when it became all lame and we had to watch the cheerleader have trouble in high school all over again. I mean she is still hot, but it was boring. Come on. Give me a break.

Anyway. We believe that someone must bring light to the darkness, that someone must open the eyes of a public that has slumbered for far too long. We believe that someone should be a disembodied robot voice talking over stock footage of clouds. The kind of footage you see in cheap science fiction movies when they want to show the aliens are controlling the weather so they just speed up some footage of clouds. That is sooo lame.

We got off track again. Sorry dude. We are so high right now. What were we saying? Oh yeah.
Bro, we want you to be aware of the very real dangers of Scientology. It is so much more important than the genocide in Darfur, or global warming, or the fact that the leader of the free world has a severe learning disability. We want you to hear even more about Tom Cruise, who we do not believe has done enough to convince people that he is completely batshit.

Be wary of the 14th of February. It is Valentines Day. We will be angry about being alone, and may grow violent.

We are Hippopotamus. We are annoying. We do not shut up. We have lots of time on our hands until the next star trek movie comes out.. Expect us. And make sure to be out of town when we arrive.

  • This is still funny

  • if its amusing the clearly it has a point... to be amusing.

    just because you don't want the point doesn't mean it isn't there.

  • LOL@tangent about heroes.

    the difference between this and other bad things going around the planet is that this war can be waged by the average guy by just going to a protest or telling people whats going on.

    all we have to do is talk about it and we win.

    if only all wars were that simple.

  • *clap*clap*clap*

  • I wish I had a Valentines :(
