Surfing the internet yesterday I caught a wave of inventive humor I hadn’t experienced before: The Kloons.

Watching a couple of videos created by these guys is all you need to “get” them. They like to intelligently poke good but not always clean fun at everything humanly nonsensical, especially religious beliefs. The two videos I initially watched were “Is Reincarnation Real: What Happens When You Die?” whose theme is self-explanatory, and “Chees-Its Christ: The One True Communion Snack,” whose isn’t.

‘Is Reincarnation Real?’

This short film opens as a truck smashes full-speed into a distracted pedestrian (played as himself by Mitch Lewis, one of the Kloons).

Mitch then finds himself in what appears to be a dim-lit hotel reception room.

“Are you here to check out?” the clerk asks behind the reception desk.

Mitch soon learns that he has, in fact, died and has come to this place for processing. The clerk cryptically implies that Mitch will apparently be reincarnated.

“So, am I going to be coming back to life,” he asks. “Yes, technically you will be, but Mitch won’t be,” says the clerk, “because Mitch is done. He’s kaput.”

Then the clerk, played by Kloons troupe member Greg Washburn, directs Mitch to fill out a survey questionnaire in which he is to rank God’s performance regarding “the whole life on earth thing.”

“So you’re telling me God is real?” Mitch asks, to which he clerk replies, “God is a word we use to fit infinity inside our brains.”

The clerk expands on this:

“The best way I can explain this is to say there is nothing but God and no such thing as God. … But let’s move on, shall we, before we start debating the undebatable and spending an eternity starting holy wars and killing innocent women and children.”

Eventually, the clerk ushers Mitch to Room 305, where Chinese is apparently the lingua franca, and it’s not a good place.

Hellish.

‘Chees-Its Christ’

This video is also colored by the other film’s smart but smart-ass palette.

It opens with a mother talking to her young son, who is sitting at the kitchen table. When she asks him if he’s doing his homework, he replies, “Uh huh, I’m drawing the dinosaur extinction.”

She suddenly looks alarmed, and then the dad (played by Mitch Lewis) appears down the hall, asking:

“Is your child coming home from school with confused ideas about life and God? … Do you worry about your kids all day? Are they making good Christian friends? What lies are they being taught in science class? That’s why you should send our kids to school with Chees-Its Christ, the only snack that fills them up and absolves their sins.”

Mitch, as the dad, continues:

“In a country where secular propaganda has infiltrated the education system, Chees-Its Christ is the one true midday communion snack that belongs in your child’s lunchbox. It’s low in fat and high in faith, unlike those mainstream heathen snacks.”

The crackers are also conveniently Christian cross-shaped.

Mitch lauds the nutritional ingredients in Chees-Its Christ crackers, which he says numb certain brain regions to ensure that your child comes home from school with “an open heart and a closed mind.”

The video ends with this sublime tagline: “Chees-Its Christ. Savior the flavor.”

The Kloons, according to their minimalist website, is “a viral network of engaged participants collaborating to inspire a positive shift in how people experience the world around them” whose mission is to “ create imaginative media and kaleidoscopic experiences by providing a collaborative platform through film, live performance, and social experimentation.”

In short, their bits are hilarious comedic takes on human foibles, vague assumptions and ridiculous propensities. Although not every video besides these two skewers mindless religious notions, some do, including “Prophets for Profits,” whose subhead is “Which religion suits your insecurities?”

Other films range from the utterly ridiculous (“If Men Had to Wear Women’s Olympics Uniforms: Beach Volleyball” and “How to Make Vegan Leather with a Friend”) to the crude and crass (a spoof oral-sex training video and a ribald take on the old Dating Game TV show, but in this one a young woman has to decide which of the three bachelors behind the screen she will have sex with, marry or kill, and then perform each on that episode) to the inventively metaphysical (“The Surprise Store,” where everything, literally, is a surprise).

If you like good mindful mindless fun, this stuff’s for you.
