Talcum in the Middle
(THERE NATE I USED IT AS A BLOG TITLE, HAPPY NOW? Haha.)
I think I’m going to get off of Facebook for a while. It’s all cringy drama and people announcing pregnancies anymore. And I don’t give a crap about either of these things.
A Thing I’d Never Thought I’d Say:
I prefer Twitter to Facebook now.
Reasons:
- Of the 40-ish friends I have on Facebook, most of them are either using Facebook to be passive-aggressive to another person or are pooping out kids and posting exclusively about pooping out kids (or, in one bizarre case, passively-aggressively pooping out kids). I have no interest in any of those things.
- On Twitter, I follow The Royal Society, Calgary Transit, a few pedestrian-promoting groups, some of the AH guys, Stats Canada, other stats groups/dudes, and a fair number of baseball pages/people. So y’know, things that are interesting and drama-free.
(Except for baseball. Sometimes baseball has all the drama.)
So yeah.
OLD MEMES DIE HARD
So I’ve been having a really shitty time as of late, but this video brought me much joy. What’s better than one meme? An older meme. What’s better than an older meme? A new meme and an older meme mashed together in glory.
(Sorry, I’m boring.)
What in the absolute hell, YouTube
Appropriate at 4 AM? No.
And yes.
END
Reeeeeeeeeally not having a good month, y’all.
Not good at all.
So I’m going to bring this back, ‘cause I need its hilarity to keep from jumping off the balcony.
UGH
Stress = to the max. So here are some YouTube videos that got me laughing.
The end.
Steamed Hams
I love the internet. I love when the internet takes a thing and makes a meme out of it.
Example: the “steamed hams” scene from an old episode of The Simpsons (“22 Short Films about Springfield,” 1996). Observe the original clip:
And memed…
“Steamed Hams but There’s a Different Animator Every 13 Seconds”
“Steamed Hams but Chalmers is Obsessively Investigative”
And this freaking masterpiece of the internet, “Steamed Hams Inc.” Seriously, it’s so good. Watch it. It will change your life. I love the creativity of humans.
Thanks, Weebl.
This thing is like 800 years old. Explain to me why I couldn’t get it out of my head today.
I am sleep deprived and this is hysterical
The sleep deprivation and the hilarity of this Vine may or may not be related.
There have been a lot of these kinds of posts lately, sorry.
More 5 AM madness
Sock, sock, sock, sock, sock, sock, sock, sock
S H O E S ! !
Vine Compilation!1!1!1!!!!!
Hello.
So watching Vine compilations has been a big thing for me over the past few months, ‘cause I miss Vine and there are a lot of compilations on YouTube.
But I’ve never seen a compilation that had all my favorites and none of the ones I didn’t find funny, so I made my own.
Because that’s what I do instead of working sometimes.
Enjoy.
[Edit: I made a new one that has more favorites, so that’s what I’m linking to here]
NumaNuma
GUYS.
It has been THIRTEEN YEARS TO THE DAY since Numa Numa Dance.
According to Wiki, the video was first posted to Newgrounds on December 6, 2004.
Doesn’t 2004 sound FOREVER ago? I was still in freaking high school.
The internet was a simpler time then.
Came for the Meme, Stayed for the Scream
Haha, oh my god.
Just…just give it a few minutes.
Okay, first of all, I had no idea “electric-country-pop” was a genre the human race was capable of.
Second of all, even the first set of screams sound legit; it’s only that one at 2:38 that makes me unable to take this seriously. Or makes me take this too seriously, one of the two.
Edit 1: I WOKE UP WITH THIS STUCK IN MY HEAD WHY
Nothing is better at 7:45 AM than “AAAAAAAAEEEEEEEEEAAAAAAAAEAAAAAAAEAAAAAAAAA!” It represents how I feel at that time of the morning, at least.
Edit 2: Wow.
Thumbs go up, thumbs go down, I’M THE STRONGEST MAN IN TOWN
Sometimes I feel very sad.
Then I remember that this video exists and I feel infinitely better.
REEEEEEEE
Have I ever posted this on here? I found this like 400 years ago and I re-found it tonight. It’s probably the lack of sleep, but I was laughing super hard at it.
DINGLE
This is one classic YouTube Poop.
Favorite parts:
1:16
2:14
2:31
8:19
Oh, internet.
*screeches in 2003*
Pre YouTube, this kind of stuff was our online video entertainment. I know I’ve posted about this trilogy before, but I forgot just how fantastic it was and how it’s able to bring back all those good early-2000s memories.
Also, these must have taken forever to make. Especially the third one.
Viiiiiiine
Excellent Vine compilation is excellent.
Sorry, I really love Vines.
Twit
I think I’ve said this before on here, but I’ll say it again for clarity’s sake. The only thing Twitter is good for is sports updates. That’s the only thing. Everything else on it is dumb. I don’t want to see your oh-so-important garbage broken into 140-character chunks of text.
IT.
LOOKS.
STUPID.
Get a blog, you plebs.
Anyway, here’s the real reason for this post. The Mets Twitter posted this little guy during the game last night and I’m still laughing.

It’s just the perfect representation of how their season is going.
THIS IS WHAT TWITTER IS FOR.
Anyway.
Freaking YouTube
It is 3:00 in the morning.
I have to get ready for my walk in about an hour and a half.
So what am I doing?
Trying not to wake up Nate with my inane giggling at this damn HowToBasic video.
There’s so much butter. There are so many sprinkles. He’s so goddamn weird.
I need to sleep.
Yowza
I’m assuming this thing is creepy when you’re not sleep deprived, but it’s extra creepy when you are, lemme tell ya.
Di-Vine Punishment
Man, I don’t know if it’s because I’m beyond sleep deprived right now or what, but this is a damn fine set of Vines.
Why did they take Vine away from us?
Why?
Innernet
I’m too stressed out to make a normal blog post, so have some internet stuff.
I wish more people realized that how you compose an email says a lot about you and can either get you want you want or get you exactly the opposite.
This is hysterical. I love when you see their little feet sneak in on the side to try and save their friend from the madness they’ve created.
I found a playlist on YouTube of all the MST3K shorts and I can’t stop laughing. My dad bought a bunch of MST3K on DVD back when I was a kid and my favorite part of them was whenever they did a “short,” which was usually some sort of after school special or a short little informative thing on how something is made. Favorites include “Why Study Industrial Arts,” “The Chicken of Tomorrow,” “A Date with Your Family,” and “Cheating.”
I pretty much love all these eyeshadows.
