Prank call + Kaoss Pad = Funny

Justin McGrath Some dude Longmont Potion Castle makes these prank calls using (probably) possibly a Korg Kaoss Pad. They're very funny. (via KSS Forum)

these are really funny.
had me in tears.....
 
REALLY?!?! What stunninly boring prank calls. I really don't understand why folks think that phoning someone up and saying absurdist nonsense to confuse the person on the other end of the line is funny. What's the point? That people get mad or confused when you bother them in the middle of their day with silly nonsense? Is there any social or political commentary buried in here? Anything interesting artistically? Socially? Politically?
Lost on me.
And I LOVE a lot of the more pointed prank call artists out there....
Baffled.

The first guy didn't react at all. It almost made me think the processing was done after the call. Amazing that he was so professional about it. The second one, 09 was absolutely hillarious to start. In the beginning the girl laughs so it sounded like she thought it was pretty funny, but then the professional side kicks in and you kind of feel bad for her as she kind of stuck trying to do her job. If I got a call like that I'd have to whip out the vocoder. : ) Cannot compute. Error. Error. Click.
 
Has anyone gone to the previous folder on that site? Looks like there's a cracked version of Adobe Audion 2 there...?

I really want that new Kaoss Pad!
 
weird, i don't see anything?
 
Me neither, but I did see this. : )
 
wow the mp3s on there are awesome!
 
Triple double flip flip triple double CHECK!
I love my Numark EM260, the Numark Kaoss Pad Mixer.

Tedious...

Between this and the MPC videos, just lots of people showing off nonexistent "skillz"...they're more like equipment commercials. Bad ones.
 
this was f'ing funny! if i was rich and had a bunch of money to waste. i would buy one of these and then get bored like 3 days later. anyways i havent laughed that hard in a while. i have no clue why i thought it was so funny, but i did.
