Flash animutations in general. Jamezbond or Arfenhouse come to mind - that kind of style.

I probably would not find them funny at this point, though.

[–] [email protected] 8 points 2 years ago (1 children)

There was a time when the internet was both very creative and not focused by money, people just made and shared; be it games, animations, videos, etc...

I'm pretty tired of the hustling economy and how it seems that every single creative output goes towards Patreon, onlyfans, becoming an influencer..

[–] [email protected] 3 points 2 years ago

Yessss! Came here to mention the animutations. Was gratified somebody beat me to it.

Saw a video on the history of stick fighting animations the other day and I miss it so much

O shit, here comes dat boi

[–] [email protected] 26 points 2 years ago

You want to know why I love dat boi? Dat boi is a completely self-made meme. So many other memes are based in nostalgic childrens shows, funny faces, relatable situations, or references. Not dat boi. Dat boi is completely absurd. It's a low-res frog on a unicycle, and an arbitrary method for greeting him. The first person to ever upvote dat boi did not do so out of recognition. The first person to ever upvote dat boi did not do so because a pre-existing meme format. The first person to ever upvote dat boi upvoted a meme literally pulled from the ether by sheer human creativity and willpower. Dat boi is evidence that humans can stare into the meaningless void of eternity and force their own meaning onto to it. I will always upvote dat boi, o shit waddup!

That meme was the exact moment I realized I had become old. I generally kept on top of them pretty well up until that point. I think I was away on a camping trip or something, and when I came back that meme was everywhere, I just didn't get it and to this day it leaves me a little baffled.

@zephyr badger badger badger mushroomushroom!
And of course the narwhals song too

Idk something about the repetitive, catchy tunes along with the smooth but goofy ass animations really made these stick. Can't believe these are from like 15 years ago already

Clicking link revealed a pre liked video and a blast from the past.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 2 years ago

I'm glad you enjoyed it. Such a happy, energetic and yet silly song.

On kbin media links auto load, so no need to click links etc. I'm not sure how other clients / apps display them. I find it handy.
