Transcript
{Strong Sad sits on the floor with a guitar. The whole scene is shot in black and white with a cheap camera on a tripod}
STRONG SAD: My therapist suggested I do this video. It's about a girl whose name I can't mention anymore due to legal reasons, but it starts with a B and I think it's a place in France. I prefer playing the Peruvian nose flute, but I don't think it would work for this song, so I decided to use an acoustic guitar. It's easy to play once you figure out how to do the twangy bit. Here we go.
{Strong Sad starts playing slowly, in one chord. Doesn't matter which one}
STRONG SAD: {singing/speaking} Let us go out, you and I,
When the night is laid out,
Like a marshmallow upon the table.
Oh B, why not the rest of the alphabet?
You could only B be B
You came rapping on my email door,
Like a large carrion eating bird,
Albicore, {taps guitar} Baltimore.
But you left like a magpie,
Taking key portions of my heart.
Yet as I wonder as heavy as a rock,
I know I will never find a girl as lovely as you,
You smelled like cheap cigarettes,
But with a little jasmine
If only I actually liked jasmine.
And your hair...you weren't bald.
But you had inner beauty.
You were proud of...having arms.
Who need girls that are nice to people?
Or who bathe regularly?
{Strong Sad stops playing}
STRONG SAD: Wait, why am I moaning after her? She's horrible. She treated me terribly. Now I truly know the meaning of co-dependent.
{phone rings offscreen. Strong Sad grabs it}
STRONG SAD: {into phone} Hello. Marzipan? Your septic tank broke? I'll be right there!
{Strong Sad gets up and knocks over the camera as he leaves. Static}
Easter Eggs
- None, though this is the easter egg for Nothing.
Fun Facts
Explanation
- Nose flutes are played with the nose instead of the mouth. I'm not sure if Peru has its own nose flute though.
- Strong Sad's song makes a few poetry references, but they are too pitiful to point out.
Trivia
- This toon is a follow-up to Love and chronologically after Nothing.
- B refers to Brittany, who has not actually sued for libel.
