One-on-one with the Professor
Click. Watch. Enjoy.
personal commentary: I've come across a couple of these in the past few months.. (average of 1 video a month, since August... and I'm quite sure Geico made a commercial featuring this sort of monotonous dialogue). They are diversions, mildly-amusing, but do they have a history? This seems like a '92-based PC Game, not unlike The Sims, which has just transmorphed into the internet's cyber-version of Mad-Libs. Would I be wrong to label the above video (and those similar) to this? Do you like what you just saw - or do you have any similar a-/bemusing videos to share? Does anyone have a name to call these genre of videos, and have you tried making your own? (the above video has a website to which it states you can try it out.)

To add: I came to enjoy this one's monologue (background dialogue)
very much as well. The people that make these, if they are just schmos like you and me, have some great comedic writing and timing. Virtual Tina Fey.
