You can really see why they were rejected, but maybe they should have commissioned someone else instead.

14 years of experience has made me much more sympathetic to that man than I was when this first went viral

I have definitely had this experience with my dog, except it was a flock of ducks and he swam halfway across a lake after them

I prefer the Brainz version, but yes this was one of the first videos that came to mind

George Washington song by https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sbRom1Rz8OA

by brad neely

Washington, Washington Six-foot-eight, weighs a fucking ton Opponents beware, opponents beware He’s coming, he’s coming, he’s coming

[Verse 1: Cox + Combes] Let me lay it on the line, he had two on the vine I mean two sets of testicles, so divine On a horse made of crystal, he patrolled the land With his mason ring and schnauzer in his perfect hands Here comes George, in control Women dug his snuff and his gallant stroll Ate opponents’ brains, and invented cocaine

Definitely check out Wizard People, Dear Reader and his biography of Ulysses S Grant if you liked Washington.

At a first thought, I'm not even sure it was YouTube but probably, Charlie the Unicorn. I've been online too long to remember old YouTube favourites specifically heh. Hell if papa Smurf lick my ass is on YouTube that could beat it unsure of exact years I watched them first well Charlie was 07-08ish if that's where it was from.

Memory unlocked for Foamy the squirrel but that wasn't YouTube specifically hah Neuroticaly Yours was the series name, it rocked. Probably shouldn't re-watch but it fit well mid / latish 2000s.

Good lord, I checked my saved videos list to see what the answer is and I realized something. The average age of my saved videos is like 17 or 18 years old. And that's only really that young because of a couple relatively recent ones. Fuck...

There are so many!

No Asians

While we're in Australia, I'll just be waiting for a mate

Moving to a neighboring country, New Zealand Decking Advert. Easily one of the funniest ads ever, one of the few I'll watch voluntarily.

This is a music video, but very much in the spirit of old YouTube: Horse Outside

Who's the tank

From the same guys: RickRoll'd The Movie

Banana Phone Gmod music video

Schlangemann, du bist so... (I don't think this is the original though, despite being 10 years old)

Much of the Important Videos playlist

Excl's Runescape videos

I'll stop now, this is already too much lol

Came here to post this. It's been 84 years, but some of those quotes live rent-free in my head to this day.

"Hey Aaron, do you think pigeons have feelings?"

"Baritone! (deep) I'll spread my wings and-"
"SHUT! UP!"
" ... fly away."

I have a hard time with remembering when things happened so I bet most of the videos I could think of didn't originate from YouTube 😮‍💨

Like the site only started in 2003 but I could swear I started seeing it in high school (I graduated in 2003).

Nice, I almost forgot that song. Very good protest song for this era. Haven't heard much from her since.

This just gives me PTSD and reminds me of why I quit playing games on Xbox live...

Last game I enjoyed playing back then was Gears games with a premade squad on private chat.

The channel called "tim hunkin".

They make youtube videos from really old TV shows where this even older guy, a true genius, explains techonology in such a simple but awesome way.

Although I wasn't around for that period of YouTube, shoe-bop. (Which I'm not linking because apparently the audio is now forbidden)

One or two guys dancing in wobbly, blowup, latex, sumo-suits.

Kicking their legs up. Full body shot, inside a house/room.

Can't find it.

BEHOLD IT'S A POTATO!

It's tied with another real dumb video that I cannot find right now. Another Ed Edd n' Eddy video called something like "don't touch my mama Luigi". It's dumb humor, but it could always be worse.
