A while back I showed Arfenhouse to a gen-Z student of mine who was curious about what early-00’s Internet culture was like. Prior to that I hadn’t watched it myself in so, so long.
Yet the whole time it was going I was wondering what about it I found funny even as a teen. Should’ve stuck with The Demented Cartoon Movie, which I do still enjoy even now, though less so.
I also noticed that certain trends in that style of humor (mainly the absurdism) are carried on in things like, say, Tim and Eric’s stuff, particularly Tom Goes to the Mayor (which on lookup actually came out in '07 – I thought it was more recent than that, but nope…!), which I love so dearly that it’s basically a core part of my personality. I guess what I’m saying is that it comes as no surprise that my sense of humor evolved in that direction.
