I know I'm supposed to say "genius." But I can never quite decide. After watching this video I'm no closer to making up my mind. But I kind of want to watch it again.
I like the part where the severed head cries.
Update: Well, they took it down for some reason. Maybe the awesome traffic from Nerd World crushed their server. Please accept this replacement video, which is funny for about 1:30:
Looks like it was airlocked:
"Sorry, "Quimby The Mouse" was deleted at 5:36:01 Wed May 6, 2009. We have no more information about it on our mainframe or elsewhere."
I blame Roslin.

Not genius. Overrated hipster. Ira Glass-esque. And you put one of his graphic novels on your ten best list. For shame, for shame.

I was promised a severed head crying, and all I got was an error message. I haven't been this disappointed since the Cylons invaded New Caprica.

Severed head video is back up. Love Andrew Bird (he did the music), kept expecting the video to get to a point or have a shaggy-dog ending. Bird is a great nerd musician, by the way - one of my favorite songs of all time is about the Scythians (Horsemen of the Russian Steps!), and he has another great one about the game "Operation".
