GI Joe PSAs

Why oh why oh why didn't I come up with this myself?
After every episode of the "GI Joe" cartoon, some stupid kids would get themselves into trouble and a Joe team member would arrive to give them helpful advice. The kids would say "Well now we know," and the Joe would respond "And knowing is half the battle." A group of geniuses called Fenslerfilm got ahold of those PSAs and modified them to suit their own nefarious and hysterical goals.
I came across them at Version Fest, a Chicago area art, music, and activism festival. The festival is going on until May 1.
