Listen, I don't want to frighten you folks, but a farmer nearby was horribly mutilated, and I thought I should tell other folks, folks like yourselves, so that maybe, just maybe, you wouldn't be horribly mutilated too.

But I hope you know that tomorrow, all of those values you gave will be different with the exception of 1-9. The way the system works is that levels 10+ are scaled by the amount the level 30 user has. So unless you plan on updating this every day when it changes, it won't be much help to anyone. The ranks are based on specific amounts, which makes a flash like this possible since they won't be changing. But with levels... unless you're willing to update it every day it is pointless.

In order for you to understand Hice's brain, you have to look deeper than what is actually there, you have to try to get inside the minds of those little critters hopping up and down, what are they thinking? Are they planning their escape from that jail known as His brain? Or have they simply learned to live with what life has dealt them and continue to jump for the rest of their lives until the day they die. That must be why the author suggests to leave it on loop, to symbolize the neverending torture of these poor creatures that just can't escape their dull and seemingly pointless lives.
I believe the eyes embedded in the "floor" of his brain symbolize the previous creatures who were born and later died there. Eventually they died, their bodies became the ground, the basis of what the brain dwellers live on, the fact that the eyes are still present and haven't decomposed along with the rest of the body shows that they will always be watching, even though they're dead, always watching because their souls are significant parts of this man's brain. These eyes are a constant reminder to the living creatures that they too will some day die there, and hopefully they will be able to move on and not make the same mistakes as their ancestors.
I believe Hice is trying to show that we too, just like his brain dwellers are often trapped in our own little worlds and there is no way to escape. Those little guys are responsible for his brain to function properly, without them there would be chaos. They know that they have an obligation to stay there and continue jumping, because of this obligation they can't pursue their dreams, they can't move on because they know they are needed. No matter how small the task is such as jumping, since it is a part of his brain they cannot give up their duty.
You have to look past the animation, look into the brains of the creatures inside the brain. If you do not attempt to look further, you will never understand the true meaning that is Hice's brain. If you give this movie a 0, you obviously haven't seen the true meaning, you just base the flash on the animation itself, not thinking with an open mind, thinking with an open heart. You have to feel the feelings of these little guys to understand them. And until you can, you haven't truly experienced this flash.

That was great, nice animation, I agree with vegeta, do the potted plant thing, that was hilarious. It sucks that ABC cancelled it after 2 episodes.
Author's Response:
Thanks a lot everybody! I was going to either do Jay's rap from J&SB SB, or the Korean animator's ending from the 4th episode but I guess the potted plant scene is more popular! That's fine, I'll probably do all three. :)
