... What the crap? XDDDD
Is this supposed to be a Beetlejuice-style play on words?
Long live Cinematech. FC:0259-0435-4987Apparently, people who think they're smarter and more aware of how the world really works like to call others less enlightened than themselves sheeple. Personally, I haven't heard anyone use the word seriously in years. It's mostly just people mocking people like that.
The joke is that there are real sheeple and he has just doomed the world.

The joke is taking the portmanteau slang term "sheeple" and employing a combination of Literal Genie and Exact Words to make it into a case of Speak of the Devil. Now I've gone and spoiled the joke for you.
"It's Occam's Shuriken! If the answer is elusive, never rule out ninjas!"Right. The idea is that these are sheep/human hybrids who have force and numbers to doom the world with their awakening. And this guy just did some awakening.
I thought it was pretty funny, though I haven't really seen the term "sheeple" in a good while...
I have a message from another time...There's nothing about "sheep-people" that implies Eldritch Abomination though.
Sleeping for thousands of years, rumbling voices, and cool staff implies elditch abomination though.
I'm just going to assume they're an entire race of the Elder Gruff from The Dresden Files. Now that would really make humanity screwed.
@Clarste: What about the Black Goat of the Woods with a Thousand Young?
Also, this

It's not a real screenshot, but it is a real photograph. Sheep can be scary.

Actually, I'm pretty sure that pic is from Black Sheep The Movie, a New Zealand horror film about man eating sheep. It's a pretty cool film. Although I doubt that the picture has been edited at all.

'Etiology' (the study of origins) makes sense. I was trying to think of the antonym for 'eschatology' (study of the End Times) and couldn't guess it.
And I would also read a book about the adventures of Etymology Man. He's so entertainingly useless!
