Well, I know… but I have this curiosity problem you see. I’m the type who looks in the bathroom cabinets at other peoples parties. Gets me into more trouble than you’d imagine, really. 🙂 That kid reminds me of the aliens from Seseme Street, the ones that say YupYupYupYup all of the time. Frightening. ---

That’s not a kid actually 🙂 I know the guy who made it and he’s in his late 20s if I remember correctly. ---

I remember studying about the history of computing back when I was a college student. I remember seeing pictures of all the geek dudes standing around the ENIAC, pioneers like Grace Hopper, and the like. Never in a million years could they have thought that their efforts would eventually lead to this. Remember, kids, webcams and alcohol don’t mix. ---

I saw this a couple of days ago, minus the still pictures plastered in at odd intervals. Plus, it had an option for English subtitles for the original Romanian(?, I believe it was.) I don’t remember where I saw it. It never occurs to me to post these damned things. This guy may turn out to be the next Star Wars Kid. ---

Do de do… \*Drag King Bar well I was bored with the lesbian scene I told myself I gotta find another thing so I strapped on my boots and I walked down the street and I rolled right in to the local d.k.b. (drag king bar, that is) when I walked in at quarter to eight well I thought that I might be straight at the drag kind bar last night it’s unlike me to look at boys when the girls are packing toys I can dig that scene all right then across the bar he played the air guitar and mouthed those words real sexy it was then that I surely knew that this one would be a two if I played my cards just right well I was drunk and I was bored and he was cute so I was lured at the drag king bar last night where all the boys are really girls and the fags whip out their pearls at the drag king bar last night then at a quarter to ten he scoped me again and drank his beer so sexy it was then that I surely knew that this one would be a two by the end of the night tonight then he used the line that works everytime he said hey is this seat taken? I said no he said let’s go I said where I don’t care I’m a scorpio take me home right now then at a quarter to twelve as I began to delve into that drag king last night well my thoughts were so strange boy my luck sure had changed I was queen to the king last night\* ---

That was…interesting. After seeing this, though, I am convinced that making surreal flash videos is some kind of art form. A high art form. ---

I recall telling a classmate in Graphic Design class that fifty years from now, our current glut of weird Flash movies will be recognized as a great artistic revolution, known as the “What The Fuck?” Movement.
