Finally some good fucking news!

🍄🍄

I got my friend with that one back in the day. It was Flash so much harder to detect a loop than a video. I told him the ending was hilarious and he managed about 20 minutes of badger badger badger badger badger until he figured it out.

What really should be preserved is the entirety of Homestar Runner.

Have they preserved where the sound gets increasingly out of sync with the video the longer you watch it? Because most archived versions don't have this.

I mean, really, most of Weebl's stuff should be preserved: Amazing Horse, Magical Trevor, Crabs, Telephone Dog ("Hello, this is dog!"), Russian Dancing Men, a ton of others I've forgot.

Ah but everyone loves magical Trevor.

We're approaching some of the old memes now, the Genesis Memes...

But if you want to brush away even more layers of digital sediment and excavate a truly ancient fossil, there's All your base are belong to us.

12 badgers doing calisthenics while a mushroom and snake occasionally appear on screen, known as “Badger Badger Badger” or “The Badger Song.”

Somehow that description just doesn't do it for me. Im not sure what would, but its not this.

wish badgers were as amazing as my horse.

When this was still big, a friend of mine said he saw it and really liked it. I casually said, "Be sure to watch it all the way through!"

I don't know what prompted me to say that.

A few weeks later, we were talking, and he suddenly said, "Oh, BY THE WAY....I tried to watch Badger Badger Badger all the way through..." He said watched for "a while" before he caught on.

If I tried to plan a practical joke, it would never go as well as that one did.

I sent an article about this to him. He laughed.

Now they need to preserve salad fingers. I’m still creeped out by it and so should future generations.

I was there at the very beginning. I watched the rise of today. From playing Oregon Trail on a teletype computer head in a dingy basement, trying to learn Basic, writing batch files, compiling kernels, and rpm hell.

The Badgers were amazing and mesmerizing and are truly worthy of preservation.

Chances are pretty good that it and Mr Weebl's other animations are preserved in their original format (i.e. Flash SWF files) at the free Flashpoint Archive project.

At least some of the old Jib-Jab stuff should be there also, which were some very amusing political parodies and such.

I remember this cat video I liked.

🎶 Cat , I'm a kitty cat, and I dance dance dance. And I dance dance dance. 🎵

And I wanted to make it my ring tone. Back when phones were just starting to let you have custom tones.

And I sent the creator an email and asked if I could have a mp3. And he responded and sent it and I was like.

"Omg. This famous guy who made this video with like 100,000 views talked to me!"

I remember bragging to my friends that this famous video creator talked to me online.

Simpler times.

Now it's 24 million views On YouTube. I'm pretty sure I messaged them on black sheep or some other video site that was popular around 2006.

I clicked the post hoping to see the original. I did not. I'm so disappointed in you

Imagine some future PugJesus type excavating our memes from the archives and reposting this 1000 years from now. 🧐️

I mixed this into a full length song and got my mate who was the DJ at the school social to play it in full, place went fucking off!

Honey Badger don’t give a shit!

Narwhal song when?

Hell yeah

Yes! Now do Benny Lava by Buffalax.

They have an interview with the father of the "Charlie but my finger again!" kids, so they're adding some good historical context to it all, too.
