I couldn't do anything better than this video www.youtube.com/watch?v=e4kY...
I expect the original inventor insisted on calling it the "breadvelope" or something stupid and everyone was like nah
They didn't even have a name for the guy who invented the sandwich. They were just like, well he's from sandwich, lets call him that. Thats how revolutionary the concept was, there were no words to even describe the man who came up with it
Like, the concept of a sandwich was so revolutionary, they didn't even have existing words they could use to make a new word for it. Instead they had to name it after some guy
Amazing that before sandwiches were invented there weren't enough things between other things to bother making up a word for it
Yeah, they pretty much stole every book that exists
longer than i should have done
In Alien Earth, a guy is typing "crew dead" on a computer and the words are reflected on his face, but they aren't reversed like they should be. For readabilty I guess. They should've used a palindrome instead, so we can still read it backwards. "Ya won, evil aliens. Is neil alive? no way"
his kitchen sounds like a horror movie
When i was a kid i used to wonder why old people didn't seem to mind eating fruit covered in bruises, or horrible looking food in general. Like, maybe they were brought up to be less picky or something. Now i realise its because they literally can't see anything that close to their face
no my end was definitely near
are you the guy telling me my end is near? That line always cheers me up
ha nice, i'll listen out for that next time i play
I also saw Weapons the other day. If you like bonkers horror movies then its well worth a watch
Been playing a lot of Earthion this weekend. If you like old school arcade style shooters then i'd recommend it store.steampowered.com/app/3597580/...
I was like "haha, yes!"
flopping zombie willies on the nose is something i'd rather not think about
That ending really made me lol
I watched 28 years later last night and its surprisingly good. There are a lot of zombie willies flapping about, which could be a plus or a minus i guess, depending on how much you like zombie willies.
yeah blue sky makes my videos really loud for some reason
This was one of the first video commisions i ever got, for a tv show called "comedy shuffle" back in 2006. I'd just got back from my mum's funeral and immediately had to start working on a video about dead eastenders characters rising from their graves. Very surreal.
RIP DeadEnders
...although you can still find copies of it on youtube if you do a bit of digging www.youtube.com/watch?v=H9ew... Its very poor quality though. Here's a less compressed version you can download and do what you like with: drive.google.com/file/d/16C5F...
As expected, the robots of youtube "reviewed" their decision without seeking any additional information (or even bothering to read the video description) and decided they were right. DeadEnders is not going to rise from its grave...
i'll wait and see what youtube decides to do
that would be my rolf remix. Not sure if its anywhere on the web but you can download a copy here and do what you like with it: www.mediafire.com/file/hess427...
Yeah, i've said it before, posting videos on that site is like farming the fertile slopes of an active volcano. Eventually it will all be destroyed by forces that nobody controls
god yeah, this is the future we are living in, where computers decide what we are allowed to watch
so now i guess the robots will decide if their stupid decision was stupid. Which means that video is probably gone for good.
Lol. Youtube removed my zombie eastenders video for "revelling in or mocking the death or serious injury of an identifiable individual". I could tell them those are fictional characters and that the video was commissioned by the bbc, but their entire appeal process is "click this button to appeal"
then it becomes a wasd mirror
Has there ever been a movie where the bad guy falls to his death shouting "fuck yooouuu....." on the way down? It feels like there must have been
it still breaks my brain even knowing how it works.
You can turn any ordinary left/right mirror into an up/down mirror by tilting your head sideways
there was plenty more dying before I limped over the finish line. Fun game
Finally got a Gradius 1cc, 40 years after it was released. The real achievement was this stage 8 recovery though.

no i think they are still there
Only if there was a car near by that i could drive to the hotel i'm staying in
i dont think it is meant to be enjoyed. I think its meant to be tolerated while you try and enjoy other stuff
just been camping for the first time in my life and i have some valuable camping advice: take everything with you. Everything in your house. Take your whole house with you and live in it. Live inside your house, at home. Stay at home, living in your house with everything in your house.
Just [checks notes] checking my notes. Yes, they're all here.
If there is one thing I have learned from watching science videos, its that physicists should probably think of a word for themselves that is easier for everyone to say
Hulk hogan died when his own skeleton tore him off like a t-shirt
you make a good point
I reckon I could win any intellectual debate simply by repeating whatever the other person says in a stupid voice.
he's just lazy. I can understand that.
i'm imagining a scene where they nail ET to a cross now
So, according to the replies, yoda is making the kids bike fly around using his mind. I mean ET, not yoda. Same thing I guess. That'll be why he doesn't have any legs, cos he can just fly himself around everywhere using the force.
Someone should invent a lying machine. They should spend billions making it as convincing as possible, and then ask it to solve all our problems
imagining ET doggy-paddling past my window
sounds like a weird euphemism to me
lol
He looks like he's made out of scrotums
Has to be the birdie song
I've probably absorbed most of it through cultural osmosis
Thinking about people in films who just magically fly around in the air somehow. I've never watched ET but there's a bit in that where some kids are flying on a bike, I guess ET is doing that? Can ET fly around? Does he do that in the film? The idea of ET flying around is kind of disturbing

i live in the past
Weird, my brain now thinks this was an actual tv advert I saw when i was a kid
yeah i'd be tempted to start with the weirdness and reverse engineer a plausible motivation
The aliens will probably completely ignore us and stand around staring at traffic lights. Either that or they will wipe us out for eating sausages
Can't wait for us to finally encounter aliens and discover they are totally obsessed with something completely stupid. Like, they are searching the whole galaxy for red things, or they worship sausages. No matter how advanced and wise, there will be something dumb they can't stop doing
When are flightless birds going to get around to growing their hands back? Or are they thinking "better keep hold of these wings, just in case". Kind of like that bike in my garage..

They need to update that "Emperor's New Clothes" story and call it "The Emperor's New Bending Over & Spraying Projectile Diarrhea at Everyone"
Dreamt last night that the recycle bin on my computer was an actual real bin I had to leave outside my house for the bin men.
Thinking how much I would hate it if aliens abducted me from my house and made me chase rabbits around so I might one day be released back into the wild
I'm going to start posting up some of my older GIFs, and re-rendering them in higher quality where I can. First up is one of my favourites, someone clever came up with the name "Infinitea" which I liked
letting go of the past is often the way forward, though we should never forget where we came from

As president of the world I promise to create more jobs by making a huge mess for everyone to clean up
and the occasional nightmarish glitch where they walk away and leave their eyeballs and teeth behind
I hope the new space balls movie includes a hilariously bad cgi version of one of the original cast
Dreams are kind of like giving my brain to some dude so he can make ai movies of the first stupid idea he can think of
Last night i dreamed about a clay hedgehog made by snooker player Stephen Hendry when he was 9 years old. Dreams are such meaningless random bullshit.

Over the years I moved away from pen & paper animation, as many clients would opt for cheaper digital processes. But seeing how industry is conspiring to make creatives' labour & IP completely valueless, it's a great time to dust off my lightbox, so at least I own something physical from my work.
[catastrophic implosion sound]
saving the US government from reckless overspending in my tiny little submarine
yep, same in 80s hampshire. It was often accompanied by "i'm telling on you!", followed by a list of your crimes, all of which had to rhyme with "you". For example, going to the loo at half past two, with a kangaroo. And you did a big poo. etc
the time saved using this technology will be spent by the rest of us trying to figure out what is real.
Finally I created a perfect blend of Popeye and Donald Duck:
Running is the future. Running everywhere, smacking face first into doors, tripping on steps and knocking people over so I can get where I'm going twice as fast. I just ran through 5 art galleries in a single day. Getting so much done
Yeah I used it in the background.
nightmarish
i'm not sure it will ever end
A little tune I made several years ago and then forgot about
i dont think it needs one really
exactly. although thats a bit of a shmup-like as well
i think "zeldroguevania" should be a thing
GUILTY!!!! #crowncourt #talkingpictures #QTV
not me
99 and feelin' fine
