And we wrap up TR's broadcast day with another totally inconsequential video but, if you're a terrible person like I am, you won't find the little guys' anguished screams of terror anything but hilarious. When Super Mario settles on his prey, he does not stop until it is dead. Or, I guess, the invincibility star runs out.

Who would've thought a game from the mid-1980s would become a 21st-century Internet meme.
Haha, I laughed at this video and that was very wrong of me. :P

I don't know what it is, but I can't get most CollegeHumor.com videos to play for me, either imbedded or on the main site, in either Mozilla Firefox or Internet Explorer. I'm sad. I enjoyed the last Mario video, with the killer ghost, and wanted to see this one.

I think that the sounds of the goomba are from an Invader Zim episode, Battle of the Planets. Zim slowed the planet Mars, a giant space ship who's creation wiped out the martian race, to squishing speed. The sound is a guy screaming while his soda can is slowly being crushed. Why make your planet into a giant space ship? "Because it's cool."
