Well said, Albert.

I think I just discovered that they want to pull my puppet strings a lot harder than I can afford to let them... this should be a fun two months.

Sometimes just working and getting paid ain't that simple. Too many people here want to be the puppet master... Just make sure your puppets aren't the ones pulling the strings.

ah, yes, glue. It all makes sense now. Thanks for that, Beck.

I think I feel better about the future of humanity that spray cheese is difficult to come by... I actually sighed a little in relief.

... which is good, 'cause the rest of me is pent up angst waiting to talk to my boss/employer/client (the one who's paying me) 'cause she obviously thinks I'm an idiot. ugh. All I want to do is work and get paid. I wish it wasn't so difficult.

Really? I thought that it would be everywhere.

I've been to 3 grocery stores and none of them carry spray cheese... dammit.

I think what you're missing, Alison, is that the bowl disappears after the bulk of the picture has become cheetos, because it would crush them. The bowl is simply outside of the camera view. I think the white "can" is actually a glue bottle - he's gluing the cheetos individually to the board. He's grabbing them one at a time from the bowl we can't see and it just looks like it's being squeezed from a non-descript white can because of the speed-up.

And for the record, spray cheese is pretty awesome. Although I haven't had any for a long time, I now feel like running to the store.

"What's spray cheese?"
This, my friend, is spray cheese:

The Wikipedia article says it's not actually spray cheese, 'cause it would "combine with the propellant (nitrogen) to turn into a fine mist upon being sprayed" if it was "spray cheese." But that's what most people call it anyway... And I really do find the idea of a fine mist of cheese to be particularly hilarious at this instant. Gross, but hilarious.

Anyway, yeah, I was leaning towards the different flavours of cheeto hypothesis myself, except those can thingies confuse me. Are they cheeto-dispensers? What happened to the bowl? Why do the cheetos only come out one at a time from the cans?

I obviously don't have enough to do during my day...

What's spray cheese?

Also, aren't they just using the different flavours of cheetos shown at the start of the video?

They could just spray paint the Cheetos, couldn't they?

They could use food colouring.

Hey Par,

What d'you think that can is that the cheeto artist is using? Are they employing various shades of spray-cheese for the darker oranges? 'cause that's about the only thing I can think of that makes any sense... except, DOES spray cheese come in a variety of shades??? ('cause if so, ewww)

What else could it be?

So I know everyone is really squeamish about "biting the curb" but, if you saw Family guy this Sunday... WTF! They actually had Meg making Peter bite the curb! Not as bloody as you would think but still really shocking.

Now all we need to do now is to bring back the "gas pedal" or better yet the more harder to do "flying gas pedal".
