Not going to lie, I skimmed this post and thought I was going to have to strongly disagree, because everyone knows that the Best Song from The Sims is 360.

Yours is the best one within context, of course.

Not the most funniest pic ever, sorry, but my inner 12 year old giggled at the phrase "The Chicago Piles", and I couldn't find the one of an... odd former co-worker that labeled a bag of loose powdered thickener as "LOSE POWER THICKNER".

One of the youtube comments on the Dutch video that started this whole topic said that it basically sounded like Simlish and y'know...I can't disagree.

These songs are perfectly understandable to people with severe ADHD after using a massive quantity of LSD.

Even the backwards-filmed “room decorating” gags in To Wong Foo would have been done with CGI these days and nobody would even realize it was a joke, let alone get that thrill of joy at the effort it took to invent and pull off an effect which is by its nature a gag

It's a lot of effort for a small gag: 'Swedish sounds a bit like English backwards' They could have done the same joke by just reversing the dialogue, but instead they did this whole ballet and by the time you realise it, it's over and never mentioned again. As you say, would they bother these days?

And the short dialogue gags are really funny, too
