The Penultimate Post

Hey everyone,

Today is our almost last post, because our trip is winding down and very shortly I, John from Canada, will be returning to my homeland to spend months in slave-like minimum wage labour paying off debts.

As for Stuart from Canada, well, he will be carried off to another adventure in a faraway land where internet is just a fantasy in the minds of 13 year old boys with limited access to pornography.

We have had an awesome time creating videos for everyone, especially the people who are checking enough to see this post even after weeks and weeks of absences. From the 10 Day Countdown to Stuft presents... Music Mondays, from those videos where we begged you to comment to those videos where we begged you to let us stop making videos, we have had a blast making most, if not all of them.

Looking back through more than 150 videos it seems like quite a ridiculous legacy to leave to the infinite and unending memory of anonymous internet accounts. In 40 years when my many assorted love children are trying to find out something about their absentee father, they will find this site.

In 30 years when Stuart from Canada applies for citizenship from the People's Republic of China (ask him about it sometime), he will absolutely not mention this on his application. In 20 years, when his first child is getting old enough to use the internet, he will block this site so that he still has some semblance of authority over his children.

In 10 years when I'm applying for my first serious job, I'll be sure to mention this site, because if I still get the job, I'll know I have the most awesome boss EVER.

And next year, when Stuart from Canada and I rejoin once again, we'll watch through all of this and laugh until we piss ourselves at exactly how juvenile we were.

Thanks for commenting when you did (and believe me, it was like pulling teeth to get you to... seven months and five HIP members?! Come on, that section is awesome!) and for watching the videos even when they were terrible, and especially when they were terrible AND more than 2 minutes long.

Because after a week in the internet-less hell of Italy and more than a week of absences 4 mediochre videos doesn't seem to do things justice, Stuart and I will spend the next four days preparing one final kickassest video ever for all the people who still check the site.

And then we'll call it quits, and unless you all send in suggestions for the Best Of section the site will remain much as it is. The HIP section will be updated with all our photos, some videos we never posted, and maybe a couple other things, and I'll fix up the counters and the other sections of the website when I get home to a working computer.

And that's pretty much all I can say. I am still honestly surprised that we did this, that we created such a ridiculous site and then maintained it for so long.

Maybe, just maybe, if you keep checking back, I might finally show you my penis.

And that's all, folks. Stay tuned for the Ultimate Post.

Until next time,

John from Canada

P.S: We're in Brussels, by the way. We left Rome for Naples, which was crap, and now we're here. Just so you know.
