this was the most irritating thing i have ever seen

pies. (gbx), Monday, 9 August 2010 20:24 (2 years ago) Permalink

I'd only seen Fred on an episode of iCarly that I was watching with my niece. I had no idea he was a real thing until later.

does Fred have a Dyson?

sarahel, Monday, 9 August 2010 20:26 (2 years ago) Permalink

Fred will be a movie soon, if you didn't already know:

okay that's it, shut down the country; we've failed

First time someone mentioned Fred I thought they meant that green dude who stands around holding a beer can while watching virtual people having sex + refuses to leave when they tell him to. (Don't know the name or even the game, but it's probably second life)

Ralph Pootawn, it appears.

i do not get "internet sensation fred" at all.

just fyi these is still the funniest WoW internet humor thing I've seen:

people are for loving (HI DERE), Monday, 9 August 2010 20:47 (2 years ago) Permalink

I'm pleasantly reassured by how annoying Fred is. I always assumed that with all the noisy, obscene music I've listened to in my life, there would be nothing my child's generation could come up with that would actually offend me. Fred gives me new hope. Adults are supposed to hate kid/teenager stuff, it's not weird for a bunch of internet dudes in their 20s/30s to not get videos created by a 16-year-old to entertain 12-year-olds.

For some reason Fred reminds me of a much more irritating version of this sort of thing:

I think the idea is (or has become) that you don't understand their popularity?

I can understand hipsterpuppies but I can also understand how someone wouldn't understand hipsterpuppies, like someone who didn't know or care about what hipsters were

can we just blanket state "extreme grossout videos" here? like all of the seriously deranged deviant sex stuff like 2g1c and death/dismemberment videos and the like

people are for loving (HI DERE), Monday, 9 August 2010 21:07 (2 years ago) Permalink

yes

elephant rob, Monday, 9 August 2010 21:09 (2 years ago) Permalink

add in shit like rotten.com and The Stile Report to that list btw

How do you feel about horror movies, Mr. DERE?

yeah, but those have like narratives and stuff

they are great, especially stealth walloginas

most of those looked pretty noisy to me

I dunno, maybe I'm a total freak, but rotten.com has some edifying moments. Like pictures of dead Mussolini.

maybe this is only something that my dumb queer friends and i find funny when we're drunk, but uh, some people don't understand why parts of this make me absolutely cry laughing:

the one time I looked at The Stile Report, it had pictures of a dude on PCP who scraped off his face with broken glass and fed it to his dog

do not want

lol bnw

Fred/Edith Ann parallel is kind of OTM. I remember when I was a kid I used to always like Gilda's caffinated "Judy Miller Show" character.

Whiney G. Weingarten, Monday, 9 August 2010 21:29 (2 years ago) Permalink

i have never seen this Stile report tho.

oh, no, i have seen Stile Project, it's just really gross porn now. not really that shocking.

I at least "get" most internet memes unless they're too niche-referential, but I'm probably the only person here that can be brought to tears laughing at stuff like this (warning: loud)

Yeah, that was funny. It's so obviously just two guys fucking around making up jokes as they go but that's part of the fun. :D

That's not what happened. Now they think that he just passed out and his dogs (not just one dog) chewed on his face in an effort to wake him up, just like what happened with that face transplant case in France.

ok maybe "hated" is too strong but it's so uncomfortable that i really couldn't fathom wanting to watch it again and again or sending it to friends

Donna and the pitfall of being pulchritudinous (donna rouge), Tuesday, 10 August 2010 02:42 (2 years ago) Permalink

The Stile Project turned into a porn site sometime around 2001. I've often suspected that it was always intended to become a porn site after a short time of showing shock material to attract attention.

Christine Green Leafy Dragon Indigo, Tuesday, 10 August 2010 02:42 (2 years ago) Permalink

xp yeah laughing at that kid always seemed kind of churlish and mean

dyao, Tuesday, 10 August 2010 02:43 (2 years ago) Permalink

Yeah, but those movies are so bad they deserve to have all the reasons pointed out as much as possible. It's great to see that clip of Sir Alec Guinness wistfully talking about how Anakin was the best star fighter pilot in the galaxy, cunning warrior, and a good friend, then have it cut to them bitching at each other in Ep 3. Or Yoda speaking wisdom about the mystery & power of the force from Empire, intercut with Ep 3 footage of him jumping around w a lightsaber like a mindless videogame character. The side-by-side starting at 5:00 in below really nails how GL turned a modern myth into a lifeless, busy-looking piece of merchandise:

Really agree w you tho, this series could have been 5 parts long w/o all that faux horror movie BS.

ya but if u wade thru the annoying voice and stuff (which actually kinda gets funny thru repetition) his analysis is pretty effing great

the disappearance of apollo creed (s1ocki), Monday, 16 August 2010 06:00 (2 years ago) Permalink

i like how the criticisms arent fanboyish 'u ruined my childhood' stuff at all, or 'jar jar sucks,' they're just like, how does this story make any sense at all

the disappearance of apollo creed (s1ocki), Monday, 16 August 2010 06:02 (2 years ago) Permalink

Agreed. Great analysis, lame comedy.

But the comedy breaks up the pacing a bit for people who don't want to sit through a sixty-minute video review of a movie from over a decade ago.

no gut busting joke can change history (polyphonic), Monday, 16 August 2010 18:27 (2 years ago) Permalink

I suspect if you removed the horror bits, not only the pacing would suffer but the analysis would seem dumb, too.
there's a fine line between "no duh" and "on the money" and the horror bits lower your critical bars.
"This is pretty astute analysis for a horror-comedy character"
vs.
"This dude is not saying anything that isn't blatantly obvious to anyone who has seen the movies"

I guess there is one way to find out -- has anyone made a phantom edit of this guy's reviews subtracting the horrorcom stuff?

Philip Nunez, Monday, 16 August 2010 18:42 (2 years ago) Permalink

You would have to re-record the audio.
