UPDATE: We added more warnings that this is gross, and we listed out all the reasons why we know this came from The Lonely Island (it's called deductive reasoning; watch Psyche or Sherlock Holmes for more on that).

Thanks to Freya for the scoop!
WARNING: FREAKY FAN FICTION. ADULTS ONLY. THIS IS VERY GROSS. CLICK AT YOUR OWN RISK.

It contains the animation of Garfield from We're Back. I couldn't bear to show that animated GIF here. It's just too disgusting. However, if you don't want to click the link, but still want to see Garfield being disgusting, you can see it briefly in their music video below (versus seeing it huge and constant, looped on the site).
This site was made by The Lonely Island as a viral attempt, and it links to:
http://www.thelonelyisland.com/video/were-back
Here's how we know it's from TLI:
1) They linked to it from their Twitter. (Thanks to Freya for posting that.)
2) It's their animation. It's in "We're Back."
3) Reminds me of Sloths and Giraffes, which are also by TLI.
4) It links to their "We're Back" video, so it's obviously a viral marketing tactic.
5) This is probably the 8th or so viral marketing attempt they've made (strange games, videos, or websites that promotes a TV show, movie, or video). So it's their M.O. I think their first ones were the Hot Rod game, Rod website, and series of Rod home videos they made for the Web.
Do these viral sites work? The Lonely Island keeps doing little things like this, so either they work or they just do it cuz it works a little and it's fun.
Either way, it's good for us (as long as it's not Garfield being nasty).
Enjoy!
