Catchphrase

Strong, like the Hulk!

Yay for spamming all of a sudden!

This is a great clip from one of my new favourite shows.

Gah! I need to read faster!

Alana is a little short for a stormtrooper

I wish I still played the piano that well!

You can do amazing things with Auto-tune

Should be studying

400 babies!

Hello future people again! This is Alana from even more in the past than last time*!

If you've seen Idiocracy you probably remember Brawndo, the energy drink (much like Gatorade) that has managed to take over every niche water ever had except in the toilet. This is a Powerthirst commercial - a fictional energy drink based on Brawndo.

There are many other videos like this that are VERY much worth watching, but you have to dig a bit through the mess of videos like them. I'm not somewhere where I can look that much, but I will post an edit once I'm back from camping adding the missing recc'd videos.



*Relative to your current time :P

Is this gonna be forever?

Hello future people! This is Alana from the past coming to bring your Youtube video!

We've all been a little out of it at one point. A bad combination of painkillers, actual anesthetic from the doctor, booze, whatever. For example, I know that two Tylenol1(with codeine) and two Gravol is tooooo much "drowsy" medication for me. That resulted in something very close to this poor little guy:

This video has its fair share of imitations and has inspired many more videos that you can search out if you wish. I'd recommend David after Divorce.

Algebraic!

This is a Nickelodeon short that Desiree showed me years ago. I heard a rumour that they might be basing a tv show on it and oh my goodness it's true. Its scheduled to air sometime in 2010. You have no idea how exciting that is to me!

I know this is a little strange, but if you do spend the time to watch at least part of it, wait until the mars scene!

Clash of the Titans

Well, things at work have managed to slow to an absolute halt. We're waiting for a baseplate to arrive so we can start construction, but the company providing it is having trouble and have delayed delivery. Also, the only other remaining task is with equipment that one of the grad students needs to use today.

I can honestly say that all I've done today is play on photoshop. We're making a game of clue about work, but that's besides the point.

With five people and nothing to do, eventually Youtube videos come up*! One of my coworkers managed to remind me of a classic video I hadn't thought of yet, and introduced another to me.

This is Sammy Stephens, the owner of Flea Market Montgomery, a flea market in Alabama. And this is his homemade ad for the store.
Be warned: This song sticks. I mean it. I had to write my Physics 111 final with this stuck in my head, and it was not pretty**.

Now, meet Mickey Ferguson. He's the weather forcaster for Good Day Alabama and FOX6. Boyy does he ever have fun with his job. It's like someone gave a five year old a green screen.

For those of you who were paying attention and noticed that both Stephens and Ferguson are from Alabama, bravo. I bet you can guess what that means. Oh yes, I'm serious.

Sammy Stephens + Mickey Ferguson = brain EXPLOSION.

yeah.






*Fact.
** Actually, I'm worried that if I post this I will have Kyle singing it at me for days.

Charlie the Unicorn

Youtube post number two is none other than the legen... dary Charlie the Unicorn.

A warning for those of you who haven't seen these before: its not recommended that you watch all 4 videos in a row.

These videos from FilmCow feature Charlie and two other unicorns who manage to annoy Charlie into coming on adventures with them. Each video of the triolgy features a song, and each video grows stranger and stranger.

I'd like a cuil rating from those of you who know of the theory.

So enjoy a true Youtube classic responsible for such quotes as:

Chaaaaaaarrrliieeee!

Shuuun the non-believer!

It's a magical Leoplurodon!

and of course,

We're on a bridge, Charlie!

Domo-kun

I've always enjoyed looking for good youtube videos, and recommending them to my friends, but I've never had a list of my favourites. So I'm going to post a video every day until I run out of ones I remember easily.

This is the first episode of Domo-kun, for all of you who were confused by my new stuffed animal.
