Why did Darth Vader cross the road? To get to the Dark Side!
OK, as a mom I'm gonna hazard a guess as to why kids find Fred funny: he has a weird voice, he makes silly faces and flails around, and he mentions pee a lot. Really, it doesn't take much to make a kid laugh hysterically, and that's a guaranteed trifecta.

"Look, son, if it's good enough for Shirley Bassey, it's good enough for you."
I am totally old. I don't even know what this Fred is. [link] And I still haven't watched any of his videos...
He was just on iCarly.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
Huh. However does this work? What does it even mean??? I'm so confused. And I want one.

As Emmett noted while babysitting the three year old down the hall from EM's apartment: "Three year olds are laugh sluts."

Remember that the frontier of the Rebellion is everywhere. And even the smallest act of insurrection pushes our lines forward.

That just makes it more mysterious, Tom. Permanent after three days? What sort of dark magic is that?

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
Sounds like an erasable pen -- my childhood nemesis!

Now I want to try that "liquid pencil" too! But it's probably just an erasable pen like Jesse says, and not as awesome as it sounds.
