GET THIS MAN A GRAMMY
Best thing I’ve ever seen.
Nummers
Yo, this is super interesting. Infinities!!
Prediction:
Eric Prydz’ “Call On Me” will always be a Five-Star for me. I can’t remember the first time I heard this song, but it was a good while ago and I’ve loved it ever since. I predict it will survive both the onslaught of the remaining years of my Decade of Music Project as well as the eventual Five-Star Purge, where I trim my Five-Stars down to like 20 or 25 songs instead of 50.
I mean, listen to this baby.
(Also, the music video is basically porn, so that’s a plus too.)
Okay bye.
5sf
A while back, I was telling Nate about Five Second Films, or “Vines before there was Vine,” basically. Apparently they’re still around! Pretty crazy. I think I found them back in 2008 or so.
Anyway, here’s a playlist of 15 or so of my favorite 5sfs.
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.
Squirrel
Hahahaha.
“OH MY GOODNESS, BUDDY, DO IT!”
Oh, Mets…
Hahaha, wow, when it’s all put together in a little montage like that…
That 2015 World Series, holy hell.
DINGLE
This is one classic YouTube Poop.
Favorite parts:
1:16
2:14
2:31
8:19
Oh, internet.
Bari Me
Not all heroes wear capes.
The bari sax player’s name is Leo Pellegrino. He’s apparently known for being a snappy-dressing, funky-dancing sax dude.
I can get behind that.
*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.
MENERGY
This is fantastic.
Millennial Whoop
So the title of this video is a bit misleading, but it’s interesting nonetheless.
SORRY THAT’S ALL I’VE GOT TODAY I’M BORING
Street
OH MY GOD I REMEMBER THIS
[I had a different video of this linked originally, but it was taken down…it turns out that an official one was posted like a month later?]
We had this on VHS and I watched it so much as a kid.
“C” is the best.
“H” is great, too. Such a deadpan voice, hahaha.
“L” was one of my favorites, too. “LINOLEUM!!!!”
Holy crapples, the “V” story always scared the hell out of me.
Yay nostalgia.
HEY HO WHERE’D MY BLOG GO
Hahahahaha.
SIGGEDY
Ha, awesome. I may have posted this before…? I don’t know.
SpongeCake SquarePan
These guys have made some action re-makes of SpongeBob SquarePants episodes.
They’re fantastic. Example:
The guy who plays SpongeBob does a freakishly good “panicked SpongeBob cry” (2:31).
Viiiiiiine
Excellent Vine compilation is excellent.
Sorry, I really love Vines.
Oof.
Holy GODS, what a good song:
Like…woah.
I don’t really follow The Killers very closely and only have like five of their songs, but every song I’ve heard from them has this amazing undertone of…I dunno, sadness? Angsty sadness? Anxious angsty sadness? Nervous fear? There’s this emotion that’s hard to define that seems to be right at the edge of the tone of their songs. I love it. This song has it to the extreme, despite (or because of?) its high energy.
It’s great.
(edit: It’s a Five Star, too.)
Tunin’
So my new favorite thing now on YouTube is finding people who have transformed 90s and 00s songs into 80s songs.
Here are two fantastic ones:
That Lady Gaga one sounds so much better than the original (no offense, Gaga!).
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.
H I L A R I T Y
So walking 30 miles takes me about 6.5 hours, right? During these 6.5 hours, I like to think.
Just think.
I think best while I’m out walking.
However, every once and a while, I’ll randomly think of some hilarious thing and just start laughing like an idiot while I’m walking.
Which I’m sure doesn’t make me look crazy at all.
Examples of such hilarious things?
- “It’s time for a new sheriff”
- “Stop bidding against me or I will invade you!”
- This freaking Vine
- That time Sean was running around the house wearing socks and just ate it on the hardwood floor. Aaron bought him some of those grippy socks from the dollar store to prevent future accidents.
- “I walk onto a terrace where I think I’m alone / But Arthur Fonzarelli’s got an army of clones!”
- That time Aaron, Lanky, and I put like 30 of those magic grow capsules in the toilet and Sean came home to a bunch of sponge animals clogging up the toilet bowl.
- That time I put like 30 of those magic grow capsules in a blender with some water and Sean came home to a bunch of shredded sponge animals and a blender clogged with partially dissolved capsule gunk.
- Brendan’s Dune “bloopers” script.
- That slowed down line in The Beetis song.
There’s more, but these are the recent ones.
