And no, to those of us who are part of the band of Stilerites, we know it isn't a strange combination, or even the least bit strange. Oh no, not in the least. Now, when do we see the photographic evidence of you wearing them? (Put them on! Put them on! Put them on!) ;-) HA! I KNEW IT!

And the Skank Media ident at the end does indeed feature the <a href="http://stilgherrian.com/human-nature/we_have_used_knickers/">used knickers</a>. A strange combination... @Quatrefoil: Yes, yes I am.

Dang you sir! OT: So .... the panties .... are they the ones from the alley?

I think I'd better use that Greater Union pass to see <em>Pineapple Express</em>. <strong>@Ben Williamson:</strong> The low frame rate seems to be in the original footage. Apple's Photo Booth doesn't have any controls, so I daresay it sets it low. The light was "passable" rather than "good", so your theory is a good one. The frame rate was 25fps throughout the editing process, but then Viddler will have done its own compression. @Stephen Stockwell: Gee, you certainly know how to drain the “fun” out of “let’s have a bit of fun while I shave” … I think I’d better use that Greater Union pass to see Pineapple Express.

Just a suggestion - the frame rate looks very low. This might be because you wanted to reduce the download size, but it might be just because you didn't have enough light. In low light the camera reduces the frame rate in order to get a decent exposure for each frame. Ok…
