It's always depressing when you find that something with your exact specifications has already been made, far in advance of you making it. It's sad for inventors, and for goofy people. I personally recently got ahold of a stack of MP3s of the Goon Show from the 50s, and if I were forced into writing a script for a radio show or somesuch, this is more or less exactly what I would come up with. Except my version would be noticeably less awesome.
It's sort of fascinating.
And very funny.
