That could have been hilarious with a couple of voice actors doing it, but the robot voices killed it for me.

No, the robot voices actually made it funnier to me. That was great. Copied to my FB page.

Likewise, actually. The jerky, monotone made the fanboi seem even more frustrating.

Funny stuff. I liked the synthesized voices but wish the two characters didn't have the same voice. I don't think it would've been nearly as funny with real voices.

Yeah. Come to think of it, most fanbois do talk like robots.

They had that when he mentioned that getting an E30 serviced at a dealership is dumb.

No, no, I meant the word "$tealership." Isn't that a fanboi term? By the way, I love their random hand claps. And yes, she should get a turbo RX-8 or a rubber-bumper MGB.
