Cannibal Troll

I'm a big fan of the stuff they do over at Rocketboom Institute, in particular the Know Your Meme series. No longer do you have to pretend to "get it" when someone posts an image macro on your forum. Now you can discern the masters of the art from the copy-cats. Also, Elspeth Rountree is a peach and always entertaining.

I got my morning lolz watching their most recent video, Troll Bait. I particularly enjoyed the troll family tree on the white board at the end of the video. This is a common comic gag they use to wrap up a meme which never fails to illicit a chuckle from this nerd. Bravo.





There's even a skeptical lesson buried in this video. Enjoy, and I recommend digging through the KYM archives and see how many you recognize. What are some of your favorites?
