1. Good stuff. Pretty much half the world’s population can relate. Those Overman and Phil Rice guys work well together.

2. That was great! Really really well done.

   Comment by Rellik — September 14, 2006 @ 1:50 pm

3. Thank you both so much!

4. PHIL!

   I loved it, way to take a different step.

   You had me laughing through out, really thanks for the yuks.

   Some great hits on details! And great wrangling of those sims.

5. LOL - great production values and very funny! Did you make the grunting noises?

   Comment by HatHead — September 14, 2006 @ 11:18 pm

6. Easily my favorite machinima film of the year. This near perfect social comedy is marvellous. Like Todd, I was laughing so hard my false teeth fell out into my coffee. Professional level tech, witty writing. I don’t think it gets much better than this, Phil. I hope this film is a big success for you. You deserve it.

7. Friggin’ amazing! Entertaining AND educational. Loved all the little things (I nearly spit my drink on the Homeland Security logo), and the voice acting was tremendous. Everything just WORKS. Great job buddy.

   The Rice-Man cometh!

   I loved it!

9. Thank you, everyone. I am so glad you enjoyed it!

   Hathead - Yes, grunting was me. Raspberries were not.
   CJ - I researched it, you know technically me using that logo was a violation of something or other? Silly. I decided to chance it.

25. Just when I was trying to explain to my best mate to use his mouth solely for breathing while ‘doing his thing’, instead of enlightening me about the use of a pizza wheel…you guys came up…

    Keep up the blilliant work!

    Cheers

    Comment by Alx — October 1, 2006 @ 7:49 pm

26. Great video! Would you care to estimate how many hours it took to to create this?

    Comment by Greg — October 2, 2006 @ 7:54 am

27. Greg, best approximation is as follows:

    Screenplay - 10 hours
    Set / Character Design - 15 hours
    Testing / Experimentation - 10 hours
    Filming - 10 hours
    Editing - 15 hours
    Sound, Music, Voiceover - 20 hours
    Rendering, Distribution - 10 hours

    This over a period of about six months… though everything from Filming forward was in the 2-3 weeks prior to release.

    Comment by Overman — October 2, 2006 @ 8:46 am

28. That was a lovely, well thought piece on male proficiency in toilets, and i will be sure to abide by the rules of the male etiquette from now on. really well done. 10/10

31. The video is great! This will sound like spam, but I swear I am a real person: DivX recently launched a site for video content, since you have a DivX version of the video, I thought you might be interessed:

    Comment by Jim — December 7, 2006 @ 4:06 am

38. Good job, realy entertaining. I haven’t seen a single good produced movie like this for weeks. The voice realy did it for this movie. Good thing you keep it a clean movie although the subject is restrooms.

51. “Man punched over urinal etiquette”
    http://www.ananova.com/news/story/sm_2717636.html?menu=news.quirkies

    `Edward Aldridge, 47, punched his victim twice after he used the urinal next to him in a pub in Christchurch.

    Aldridge accused his victim of looking at him, reports Metro.’

52. This is one of your most hilarious pieces, Overman. Clever, and funny at the same time.

    It cleary acknowledges everyone of the rules of the men’s room while keeping them entertained at the same time.

    Two thumbs up! I really enjoy all of your works.

    Comment by Spong3y — March 24, 2008 @ 6:52 am
