This humour is kind of new and upcomming.
Reminds me somewhat of Salad Fingers. I don't know why.
I think the animations look very smooth, but the sound is kind of blah..

The answer is that technically it's very well made. It does take alot of time and effort to produce stuff like this. As for the humour.... well, I'm probably with you on that one. The first one made me smile but after that....

Mamaluke - Your US born and bred right ???? It's a cultural thing.

The British soh is widely accpeted the most complex and urbane in the world.

Can I ask a technical question? How many frames per second are you going for to produce a result like that?

(I must add - I found them very funny - needs change of humour tact after day three I reckon though)

I wouldn't worry about it. It can't be explained - not because it's particularly high-brow, low-brow, ironic, satirical, urbane or anything. It's the sort of thing you either find funny or you don't. I wouldn't even say it's cultural, though I'd expect a greater proportion of Brits to find it funny than others.
The dry delivery helps. It's almost Peter Salliss/Nick Park.
