Freebie Film Tip: How to Avoid Martian Timeslips

Do you need a laugh today? I did, because it's rained all day, and I'm feeling punk. (No, not like Amyl Nitrate.)
What to do? Go googling for fun, if not profit.
After convincing Elektra that the large-print keyboard she was lusting after was, according to outraged customer reviews, 'A piece of plastic junk, DO NOT BUY,' I ventured into the archives and came up with this gem:

The short film is a wonder of Prelinger Archive abuse. (They encourage this sort of thing. They must be as demented as I am.) I think it's worth a chuckle. It might also give you an idea of what we're up against in the US of A. Commies, Martians, and homosexual robots...
Now, if your neighbour offers you a piece of candy (Can-D?), just say no.
He may be a Martian.

Commies, Martians *and* homosexual robots? Good lord. We only ever have two of the three at one time, over here.

They're all Martians, locally, including the robots.

Heh, thanks Dmitri, I managed after long struggling to finally get to watch the entire thing! I had to invent my own ancient martial art to get the video to fully buffer and play smoothly in a single sitting.
