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)

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.

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

which is a decent % of the internet
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

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

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.

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)

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.

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.

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

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 (thirteen years ago) link
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?
