    It’s on! It’s off! It’s on! It’s off!

    That’s called “blinking” boys!

    One of my favorite moments of Venture bros.

      Crap. The clip I pulled from YouTube to make this was missing that part. It’s just after the end of this clip. I actually was looking for that part. Figured it was some other episode since a few feature the PROBLEM.

      I should have just edited the full episode file I had. I just double checked it and it’s on this episode. Season 1 episode 2.

      The “on and off” is the most relevant part!

          My other favorite thing is The Nozzle.

          Don’t look away from the nozzle.

          Also I deleted my comment because I realized the part I was looking for was in this episode. But I missed it because I pulled the clip from YouTube.

          Also, to brag a tiny bit. I can do a decent Molotov cocktease impersonation and I have a friend who can do a dead on impersonation of Dr. Mrs the monarch. She’s a woman too! But nails it.

          Maybe one day I can get her to do an audio comedy skit in character with Molotov.

            You know, they never explain The Nozzle… just one of the many unexplained plot points like

            Spoiler

            21 never actually learns The Monarch killed 24

            Dr. Girlfriend/Dr. Mrs. The Monarch and her 3-pack a day voice is my favorite

            Found this clip when looking for the above one. Never realized it’s literally just 2 dudes doing the majority of the voices for this show. Crazy how dynamic they are.

              Yeah they are pretty talented. The friend I mentioned who can do dr Mrs the monarch can do like 5 really distinct voices. I’m always telling her she needs to get into voice acting. She really doesn’t understand how rare such a talent is.

              As for the nozzle. I have this running joke in my head about the nozzle voice but replaced with “the research”.

              As a grad student, research is life. You think of it constantly. You talk about it to anyone who will listen. It takes over.

              And the nozzle fits.

              “Please do not be alarmed, we are about to engage in THE RESEARCH”

              “Please do not move while THE RESEARCH is engaging”

              “Do not look away from THE RESEARCH”

              “THE RESEARCH is now calibrating.”

              “THE RESEARCH is still calibrating.”
