You got weed? I'll STORE ANYTHING!

Is this where the Alkaline Earth Christmas banner lights are stored during the off-season?

Nice. I like!

Also, flashblock won't let me unblock the flash on the left of the screen....

Oh, snap! The lights will pop when you mouse over them! Very nice.

A free Jones Bigass Truck Rental & Storage shirt to anyone who can fix my lappy so that:
1 - When I mouse over lights on AE they shatter instead of just act like they always do, taunting me with their blinky-blinky.
2 - I am allowed to edit something on a publisher website that I haven't been able to do. <more details given to interested parties>

Those two things are actually probably related.

Also, I run Vista.

Nah, this guy's a standup comedian. The comments on the consumerist article say so but now he's also got notes that pop on the video saying you should come see him on new years in chicago.

Jones Bigass Truck Rental & Storage was featured as one of The Five Most Terrifying Local TV Christmas Commercials. Enjoy.

@natedogg - for some reason I feel compelled to note that I knew that. and find it no less hilarious.

That esquire article is missing Fred and Sharon, which is a grave oversight.

@nano -- you are running Firefox? if not, that is my answer.

I just figured out what that flash in the corner that javelina can't click on does: it makes the sounds when you mouse over and pop the light bulbs. Try it sometime in IE just to see it.

It's interesting... I reliably get them to asplode, but the sound seems to be intermittent.

Sound works well with Chrome.

I broked them all! It makes lots of noise!

Firefox does not seem to be the answer here.

To those who have to sound: Try loading this file; you should just see a halcyon blue screen. Hold shift and hit reload. Then come back here and try again. Maybe that will help? Dunno.

The guy who designed the xmas lights thing did it just right. It's just funny enough to be funny and just annoying enough that I'll be glad to see it go.

And now it's snowing!!!!!!!!

ooo... maybe it's like a festivus advent calendar, where a new thing keeps popping up each day?

OMG..... The snow follows the mouse! Except if you're habcousy. Then the snow goes away from the mouse.

The snow behavior seems to vary by reload. It's like these computers have some way of generating a (pseudo-)random number.

I also just realized that the breaking sound on the lights is mapped to stereo so the lights to the right of the screen produce sound in your right speaker. Clever!
