Title: Whatever the current ‘News’ video is about, that's what this topic is.
Post by: Unless on March 3, 2016 11:43 PM
This is a thread that I thought some people might want to post in periodically, were it to exist.
I guess that's sort of the point of a forum after all.

My mother has a funny habit — or at least it would be funny for a third party — of looking at all the wrong things when I'm browsing forums or somesuch. An example to which most people will be able to relate is if you were to be browsing your Facebook feed and scrolling casually past all the stupid shit somebody posted that a friend of a friend shared which resulted in a comment from a friend, when suddenly somebody ([my mother]) were to see the picture and remark on how that's a weird thing for you to be browsing, despite the fact that it's not actually relevant to your interests.
This is why I've added a few images in people's signatures and avatars to the Adblock Plus app here, as well as why I'm grateful the current News video thumbnail has arrived just in time for my going home on Saturday morning and for my mother not to see.

Also I'm a colossal sourpuss and never find any of these videos funny, but to each their own I guess.

Take care!

It's okay I live with my parent too Unless.

He lets me keep my computer in my room though so that's nice.

For real though the front page videos are always great thank you for curating rtil.

This one is still my favorite to ever have been showcased:

i used to keep an archive of all the stuff i put on the fp but it was too much effort

i should have started a yt playlist instead

that one was from a long time ago i feel, but it's still one of my favorite shorts

Yes I love it.

Mickey Mousing has to be one of my favorite animation and filmmaking techniques when it's done effectively. It really bugs me that it's been all but abandoned by "serious" directors considering it's responsible for pretty much all the most popular animations on the net.

Now we only really see it in anime OPs. If I ever got Semitic powers to become a director that would be the first thing I'd bring back, along with Soviet montage theory.

No, yours are usually unclear and/or depicting people with deformities or mutilations, which is relevant to my interests and if my mom doesn't like seeing that then she can learn to stop looking over my shoulder whilst also not reaching the conclusion I'm into OTT anime meme humour.

I honestly think that it'll come back again strong before we're dead and gone.
