HippoOnYourHead
HippoOnYourHead is Chris's third Flipnote Hatena animation, uploaded to his profile on 24 June 2010. This flipnote is Chris's first attempt in the program that features an actual narrative, as opposed to just being an animation test or blatant theft. It also sets the basic tone that future flipnotes would conform to: stick figures joylessly acting out "funny" scenes. Chris assuming that he's such a master of comedy, decided to put "some" effort into his videos. Many of his sock puppet accounts gave him positive reviews of his flip note video, so it's completely unclear how many people actually watched this video.
This is not the first time Chris has brought up hippos on heads as something he believes is funny. He first brought up this random-access humor when he edited the ED page. In the Regina e-mails it was all but pointed out to him how terribly unfunny it truly was. A leaked post by Chris[1] sheds some light into what he might consider funny about this joke: the hippo is a reference to the brain's hippocampus.
Chris also mentions a "Buck Williams"; it is unclear whether this refers to the basketball player or the character in post-Rapture novel series Left Behind.
The Flipnote ends with Chris begging for stars, which are essentially Flipnote Hatena's e-penis measurement system, which proves that even "off the Internet", Chris still wants his fanbase to do him favors.
