This is spot on, I once had nyan cat on the background for like 4 hours straight, and I found it hilarious xD
Let kids have their own bullshit without thinking too much about it.

Back in my day we used to frame our memes with black and white borders.
Either that, or it would be on a two-colour sunbeam background.
10 hour leekspin video uploaded to YT 15 years ago, original leekspin vid on yt is 18 years old
there is no OC
To be fair, the music leekspin was based on was pretty “novel” and beautiful. (see Loituma “Ievan polkka”)
We had the most brain rotted memes ever and anyone who says otherwise is full of it.
ALL YOUR BASE ARE BELONG TO US
OK, but that song was a banger.

God damm…that was 23 years ago?
Not the best comparison. A spinning chip with a loop of Funky Town would almost certainly just be taking two things made by someone else and slapping them together. Badger Badger was made as an original piece of music with original animations by Mr Weebl. Even if both are somewhat mindless, one is a soulless asset swap while the other is an all original multimedia creation created by someone who genuinely put effort into bringing mirth into other people’s lives.
Totally agree. And timing. Big platforms didn’t exist, or were still small. The internet was still new to a lot of people and no phones to access it. We had to go to a website on a PC and actively choose to watch it.
I could be wrong but that feels more special than a video liked and shared over a big corp messaging app.
Look…“Cliff Yablonski Hates You” was peak internet.
These comics leave a bad taste in my mouth because r/comics is a free speech dead zone and that lady has a lot to do with it.
I’ve never heard of anything connected to her. What did she do?
Let me guess, she was harassed, complained about, gamers were banned, peaches unfrozen.
The reverse, actually. Back on reddit, she made a comic about her sexually harassing men, the joke being “haha, this never happens”. She was then informed that this does, in fact, very much happen, and reacted… badly. The comments blew up, and it ended with the mods nuking the thread and banning everyone who criticised her. It left a very bad taste in people’s mouths.
As you may imagine, the fact that every time she’s criticised here the default response is “oh, you just hate her for being a woman” isn’t exactly helping. If anything, all the comments jumping straight to “fuck you you will die alone” are actively making it worse.
Better attach a proof with that. Hard to believe having read some of her comics.
…Really? I mean, sure, it’s not like it’s obscure. She even make a damage control faux-apology about it when it looked like people were turning on her. Unironically saying “I don’t hate men at all. I have a son! Lol” was a particularly memorable response.
Wow and people are still like “Never forget!!!” to bring this up? The comic is clearly satire and even funnier with the reaction.
Thanks for the link, definitely an interesting example of a different kind of brainrot - promoting and reinforcing victimhood in young men which ultimately helped the rise of inceldom and neo-fascism.
I’m curious how that happened if you’ll indulge me

Go back to reddit. Average lemmy.world user.

This hatred is far more insufferable than her mid comics. Nothing makes more more unwilling to remove her comics than people trying to be the arbiters of comic quality.
edit: I changed my mind. You’re also being an asshole to people who weren’t even talking about her. Banned
You’re going to die alone and lonely
We used to have Badger N+7 competitions - just take the dictionary and transform the lyrics accordingly then sing it. it was absurd and fun.
Jos joku muu suomalainen sattuu lukemaan, niin ajattelin heti vaan sakarin villapaita -peliä :D

I feel like One hour of silence occasionally broke by the opening riff from Bad To The Bone would have been a banger in the all your base days.
