Alpha…Wanna Bet?
So everyone’s saying how this new generation is screwed and are citing stuff like skibidi toilet and other weird-ass internet stuff that has made its way into the generational slang.
But I think y’all are forgetting the incredibly weird internet stuff that Millennials were exposed to and referenced and absorbed into offline culture.
Like…we all remember early Newgrounds and Albino Blacksheep, right?
Animutation was its own weird world.
Just sayin’.
The Demented Cartoon Movie!
I’m pretty sure I’ve posted about this somewhere way back in the blog archives, but it randomly showed up in my “for you” on YouTube and it brought back SO MANY memories from junior high/high school. I used to watch this all the time and longed to have the skills/patience in Flash to make anything even half as long.
That “hmmmmmmmmmm” sound still goes through my head to this day.
DOESN’T LOOK LIKE THEY’LL REVIVE HER!
I’ve had this song stuck in my head all day, but with the lyrics replaced by the lyrics from “French Erotic Film.”
Tell me the internet was your best friend in high school without telling me the internet was your best friend in high school.
French Erotic Film
Yesterday’s delve into old Flash animations that I enjoyed as a youth brought back the memory of the incredible “Colin Mochrie vs. Jesus H. Christ” trilogy.
If you have never seen this before, you are now commanded to watch it.
I can sing all those lyrics from memory. I have all three of these songs and anytime I hear them I sing those lyrics.
I need to post more stuff on Tumblr.
Why? Because every time I go to my Tumblr page, this damn post is right there and I subsequently have to go watch this and get it stuck in my head for hours:
Remember AlbinoBlackSheep? Fun times.
*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.
Doe, a drink with jam and bread…no, wait…
Every once and a while—like, say, every nine months or so, I get this song stuck in my head for like 20 hours straight:
I originally saw this on Albino Blacksheep back in the internet Stone Age (~2005), but now when you Google “cat I’m a kitty cat” the Albino Blacksheep link isn’t even in the first 5 results. Sadness. Albino Blacksheep is great.
Someday…
I hope to make a flash this long/weird/full of stick figures/dorky.
Mr. Weight is my hero.

For some reason, I found this incredibly funny. Particularly the part after the “end.”
