An entertaining swipe at corporate irresponsibility.

Beyond question, the results are overstated, outrageous and wildly, scatologically juvenile. But they're also a hoot to watch.

Bichlbaum and Bonanno don't just try to make the world a better place. They treat it as if it already were.

They are highly entertaining and I am sympathetic to most of their grievances.
