incredibly popular internet shit you don't understand at all

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

http://www.comingsoon.net/news/movienews.php?id=64509

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.

some nickelodeon show based an entire dreadful episode around fred iirc

I am a big Ralph Pootawn fan fwiw

saw this thread, came to post "internet sensation fred," saw it was in whiney's lead post.

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

Ok, he's an instant classic.

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

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.

Hipster Puppies

^^ was waiting

For some reason Fred reminds me of a much more irritating version of this sort of thing: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ocBO0fr1Ui4

Seriously though, come on now. xp

you seriously don't understand Hipster Puppies?

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

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

yes

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

not a fan, but at least those aren't real

How do you feel about wall-o-ginas?

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.

I haven't looked at rotten.com since like 1999

lol clicker

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.

i have never seen this Stile report tho.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=m9MA0eW8yyw

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

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZN5PoW7_kdA

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)

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nq7EW80mzDo

fred is the less good version of shaye st john imo

amusing, but it doesnt make me weep like Jiz.

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

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

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.

i've always kind of hated the "boom goes the dynamite" video

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

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

i think with fred we can safely bypass the "WHAT IS THIS!?!?" straight to the "no, i've figured it out and i'm better than this shit"

We're not even talking about cats here.

seriously, can someone explain why the double rainbow thing is "funny" or "interesting"

in original WoW video, l33t should be 1337. that's basic.

and kill yourself after

My kids sing this in the car until I cry.

Blooket. Middle-school kids love it. I'm in for French today, so we're playing some Blooket at the end of each class. I log on, choose the topic--animal names in French, right now--they log on with the code, then the timer starts. For the next seven minutes ("Green bean just took 53 crypto from no"), as the summary of what's happening scrolls by, I haven't the faintest clue what's happening.

Hahaha. I've used Blooket a few times. It's basically a tool like Quizlet or whatever to promote the gamification of revision of stuff like subject terminology. There are rules and styles but I wouldn't worry too much. It's a load of shit and only really useful as a babysitter.

Which is me teaching French in a nutshell--babysitter.
