hi

A skateboard gets stuck in a tree, a mixtape needs delivering, and someone is trying to fit all of history onto a single sheet of paper. In bill wurtz's "hi", these are household errands. The passing "infinity bus" is the thing worth worrying about.

The animated musical sketch has drawn about 839,000 views since yesterday. Its green protagonist shares a home with Shelby, a scribble-covered companion with glowing rings around their head. Their conversations keep opening into little songs, then returning to business as though nothing has happened.

Shelby's writing project supplies an early exchange: "I'm writing down everything that has ever happened." Later comes the question, "Did you write down yourself writing it down?" Viewers are connecting the ambitious assignment to Wurtz's "history of the entire world, i guess", his 2017 animated sprint through human existence.

Here, though, the scale is domestic. The green character takes his mixtape to a record-company receptionist. Two identical visitors arrive to double the roof. An attempt to work out where he is requires a map. Wurtz gives these impossible situations the conversational rhythm of people sorting out their afternoon.

The comments pick up on that rhythm: viewers describe a miniature sitcom and discuss the extra joke of characters breaking into Wurtz-style songs inside a Wurtz video. Another recurring subject is the bus, which the characters treat less like a surprising apparition than a familiar nuisance. When it returns, the basement becomes their refuge, with Shelby bringing a banjo.
