The Joker say: Laugh till it hurts

It certainly hurts, playing the new and frustratingly unending game that’s shown up at Whysoserious.com, care of the Joker.
Earlier today, holders of the Joker’s cell phones received a new text message, though a few variations were reported. One read:
Welcome to Short-Attention-Span Theater: Align This Tutu Hurl (-un)
The letters of the strange phrase form an anagram which leads to whysoserious.com/laughtilithurts - a typical fairground race game where you spin a wheel, and move ahead a number of spots, trying to beat out 3 other cars. There’s a ’skill shot’ spot, however, which if hit, doubles the spinner value and moves your car ahead faster. So you play. And play… and play… and scream at the universe… then play some more.
Until you realize that hitting the skillshot spot continuously in a row leads to a colour pattern on the spinner - make note of the colour pattern (of Blue/Yellow/Green/Reds): “bgygbrgbyrygbgybbrbyg”, and manually click that same pattern on the spinner itself (any number works). The machine spits out a ticket! Clicking eventually leads to a new location - whysoserious.com/laughtilithurts/static.htm

The trail continues… watch for updates!
