To this day, hearing the words "badger", "mushroom", and "snake" will often be enough for me to get that song stuck in my head.

Same, and also "narwhal".

There's a part of me that's ashamed that I remember the entire thing. Then I remind myself that I also remember all the words to "Oh No You Didn't", and I just climb into the shamehole of my own volition.

Edit: To add the link, someone else will suffer with me.

If I remember right, it was a kinda a quiet thing? I think some of the Mercenaries 2 promotional stuff had links to download the song, but I don't remember any real fanfare over it.

Which is kinda sad, because it's surprisingly catchy in its own goofy fashion.

The good to us was from the Quiznos commercial

I mean, in hindsight they were. He sent a cow forward in time to witness Lemmy, then brought him back to report what he saw.

I say "hokay, so" at least 10 times a week and I'm pretty sure everyone just thinks its a thing I say, and no one gets that it's a reference

now and again I just follow it up with Zis is ze earth to get those sweet sweet confused looks or the seldom sly smile.

I'm glad I learned about this today, it's hilarious. It reminds me of sam onella and bill wurtz.

Sam onella turned out to be a full on fashy. Said the hard r, had some bad takes about queer people, the whole 9 yards. Too small to have been cancelled but I'm still disappointed

Don't you do Raffi dirty like that. He's an international treasure, and he's still doing sold-out shows for the "Beluga Grads" to bring their kids to. My oldest has seen him twice (once with us, and then we got tickets for my MIL to take him one Christmas). My youngest never saw him (damn COVID).

Man is wholesome as fuck and he's still making new songs.

I'm glad I forgot this one, and am pissed off I read it, stupid banana phone

It's too late for me...

I've been rewatching old seasons of The Great British Bake Off and it blew my mind when one of the hosts said he played Old Greg. Does anyone remember that weird ass online sketch?

11

Haha it's definitely possible I live under a rock.

To be fair, I didn't connect him with that probably because I never saw The Mighty Boosh, or much British media in general. Out of context, it was just one weird thing we would show each other from the internet at school among a bunch of weird, other things from the internet. I completely forgot it existed until he brought it up in an episode, and then the memories came back, along with Salad Fingers and other weird, this in this thread.

I never understood Vine, and I still don't understand TikTok. But, tell me about a weird man riding on an amazing horse, and I know exactly what you mean.

I used to be with “it,” but then they changed what “it” was. Now what I’m with isn’t “it” anymore, and what’s “it” seems weird and scary.

I will very occasionally throw a LegendaryFrog reference into conversation. I've only ever had one person get it, but man oh man did it make my day when it finally happened.

I do the same thing with Derrick comedy videos, a friend of mine picked up on it once and that was the time we instantly became friends.

So many hours wasted on addicting games. I think the impossible quiz was the first thing I played on it.

For all you boomers out there, there was a game I used to play on addicting games that was like a smash clone, except I think you could get like guns and lightsabers and stuff? It wasn't super smash flash or ...

As I was googling more evidence that it wasn't a fever dream I made up, I found it! The game was called chaos faction. Fuck I spent a lot of time on that...

When I tried to play RuneScape, I did it on my uncle's computer. RuneScape asked me to verify if I was 13, which I wasn't, so I clicked no. Then the site proceeded to block me from making an account, along with storing a cookie I guess that prevented me from just refreshing the page and trying again. I felt pretty bad because I thought they banned my uncle's computer forever from playing lol. Hence I never played RuneScape...

I can't remember exactly when, but I've been developing elearning multimedia since 2001, and up until about 2017 we were building everything in Flash, so stuff like this always grabbed me and my co-workers attention. The co-worker who showed me this hasn't worked with us since about 2007 or 8, so before then for sure. He was a younger fellow who practically lived on newgrounds and albinoblacksheep and other such sites...

I'm so happy others remember this one. It's so good. They had other ones, too. Very consistent artists.

Yeah this one really stuck in my memories. The art was so cool. Remember Ninjai,the little ninja? That series was soo well done, but unfortunately seems to have disappeared from the internet. I'd love to go back and re-watch them...

Ebaum's is best forgotten to the annals of time. Truly the 9gag of its' era. Third party content with a watermark, bottom of the barrel community, horrible leadership.

Lol I have the opposite problem, my boyfriend is 6 years younger than me and hell make some reference to something from when he was a kid and I'll just be like "mmmm musta missed that one."

I remember when duck.fla got past Newgrounds' community police. Those were dark times.

I also remember the huge success Metal Gear Awesome had and how some people threw a shitfit at it being top 30 for months. It was fun to see people making fun of them.
