The Ultimate Internet Satire


THE RAU GALLERY CAST

If you don't want to read the lengthy explanations for each character's history in the scrapbooks section, then this page will give you a brief summary of all that you really need to know. It includes links to the more-detailed scrapbooks in case you are interested in learning more.

Note to Firefox Users:

Some of these sketches include jokes that rely on having a picture move across the screen with a marquee tag. For some reason, Firefox has trouble displaying this correctly and I can't figure out how to fix it yet. However, I've noticed that once everything loads, refreshing the screen usually clears the problem and the picture is then displayed normally. I have put a note at the top of every sketch that uses a marquee to refresh the screen.

  • Archaeological Thingamobobical Part 4: Attack of the Drones
    While Nucleo, Image, and Loro leave to deactivate the anti-virus system, Honen is left alone with Cirrus. He meets up again with Deuce Koma, but a fierce battle for survival ensues when they're attacked by a horde of anti-virus drones.

  • Archaeological Thingamobobical Part 3: The World That Time Forgot
    A haywire anti-virus system now poses a new threat to the stranded archaeology team. Questions remain to be answered: Just who is the oni child, Cirrus? And is the lizardman warrior friend or foe?

    Thanks to the internet, poor Honen can't get away from his antagonists even when he's miles away.

  • Forum Archive Topic #5: Onilicious! (Parts 1 & 2)
    Because this was done on the forums, it's out-of-synch with the series timeline. This probably happened sometime right after Annelidical Psychiatry and before Troubled Ties.

  • Forum Archive Topic #4: 256K Warning
    At this point, the series has now had more references to the male anatomy than my high school biology book.

    A trip to an abandoned message board proves to be a close encounter of the weird kind for Jack Sheen.

  • For the Love of an Oni

    Bloggers who take it upon themselves to verbally trash me and my website, be aware that the door swings both ways (and trust me, I'm better at it than you.)

  • Playing With the Queen of Hearts
    The only reason this got made is because several people wrote in to tell me the Juice Newton part of the last one was great.

  • Overlord Woes
    People often ask me why I won't go to their forums. This episode pretty much sums up my experience with outside message boards. It's nothing personal. It's like the song says, "If I shy away it's only because, love's the internet's been a little bit hard on me".
    First Appearances: Victor Markino

    Deuce can't catch a break from Tomi's grouchiness and Honen's angsty antics. Honen's fear and uncertainty is about to get him into hot water...

    This is the best and only review of the NES game Bee 52 that you'll ever need.
