Here's something:
Okay, see you Monday.

Fart jokes never grow old. Happily, Dan doesn't either.
When San Diego Zoo built their new hippo exhibit ("Hippo Beach"?) twenty years ago or so, touting underwater views of how graceful hippos were when their bulk was fully submerged, they mucked the water up so regularly in the early days that the pump and filter systems had to be rebuilt with something like triple the original capacity.

I love the way the Mom says "did you see that" like they were at the Air and Space museum going past a Space Shuttle diorama or something.

Ha ha ha!
This is the San Diego zoo :-) The hippos are fun to watch, tho I must say I've never caught them at anything like THAT o.O

I saw one at the SF zoo projectile shitting against a wall, it had what appeared to be a shit eating grin on it's face the whole time. hilarious.

That clip could form the centerpiece of the best Terrance and Phillip episode ever. I'd personally rather see a Cartman and Butters episode, but if Trey and Matt have to bring those wacky Canadians back, this clip is how they should do it.

The real danger from Hippos is the inevitable northward movement of the escaped drug kingpin hippos from Carlos Escobar's Columbian ranch, which are conquering central america as we speak.

All hippos do that. They love nasty smelly butts apparently.
Pretty sure the noise is fake though.

So that's how Savage learned how to make Santorum.

@17 but cartoons are depictions of real life funny. And things like farts in real life are funny, especially contrasted against what we all pretend to be (civilized people with perfect skin & hair and almost no real bodily functions). God, if none of us could fart, we'd all die. Thank you hippos, for keeping it real!

I feel so juvenile right now. I can't help watching, and laughing about it, again.
I could be wrong, but it seems like the poor beast is visibly deflated afterwards (talk about gas pains).
Peace.

The poo flinging is a territory marker Hippo's use both in and out of water.
I learned that from some clever interpretive panels in the bathrooms at the National Zoo.
