Racist Field Trip gets me laughing fit to cry. Would have killed to be in the room when he was telling the story. Guys in the background about to piss themselves!

I’ve been very recently rewatching the pure pwnage series. Such a nostalgia trip, not just because the videos themselves but the era they took place in too

spacemanspiffy@lemmy.world · 1 pts · 1y

I did a re-watch last year. Although a lot didn't age well, it was still so good and brought back a lot of great memories that I don't mind if its dated.

Here’s my favorite deep cut. It was the first video I ever saw on YouTube: My Hands Are Bananas

Rentlar@lemmy.ca · 5 pts · 1y

I'm sure the most watched ones might be: The Duck song, Asdfmovie, and the like...

My picks:

(Stupid funny) playing Parappa the Rapper 2 https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mGlCGMm8Qag
(Informative) CGP Grey: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3Y3jE3B8HsE
(Music) The Canadian band Barenaked Ladies recording songs in their Bathroom: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ebWzQ-sZZto
There was this one youtube minigame (maybe it was a google homepage game? I don't remember) commemorating the fall of the Berlin Wall Anniversary, with a wall you could break by moving the timeline bar back and forth. I can't find it anymore.

Ehhh I think eight years is still too new to qualify as “classic”

Oh I guess fair enough, thought it was older

Rai@lemmy.dbzer0.com · 2 pts · 1y

It seems like it is longer ago! But then I realize my bones are made of dust and the videos I consider “classic” are a decade older than that ugh

This guy Andrew Struthers made cool stuff back in the day, too bad he became a COVID-denying anti-trans bigot. He made his mark with Spiders On Drugs and then used the money he made to make a feature film. Americanface, the resulting film, is one of my favorite films. It really sucks that he became such a dickbag.
