Friday Videos - Feb 9th, 2018

I'm heads down for the next few days getting ready for some new announcements around A Night of yk Records and a new We Own This Town podcast. I may have bitten off more than I can chew but I'm confident that a little diligence will get me through it. Looking forward to sharing the news with everyone.

Here's some enjoyable distractions!

• Roll that Beautiful Bean Footage - not only did I completely block out this series of commercials, I also had no idea that there would be YouTube remixes of it. Of course there are YouTube remixes of it.
• King Cake Baby - I know very little about sports but I know that the Pelicans have the best alt-mascot with their nightmare-inducing King Cake Baby. This video is fairly boring but you can't look away from his sculpted face.
• Shooting Stars but it's played on an old Samsung - you know that perfect meme song, now hear it in all its touchtone glory.
• The Blue Marble - I can only assume showing a teen a Rube Goldberg esque journey of this nature would bore them to tears but I find myself captivated.
• SNL: My Little Step Children - the "Cut For Time" sketches are almost always the best. This one isn't flat out hysterical but it's got some hearty laughs.
• Low Poly Mario - want to take a ~20 minute journey through every polygon style Mario model that's existed and inspect their differences? I can not begin to explain why this is fascinating to me but it sure is.
• Last Wave - What happens when you let They Might Giants create a stream of consciousness song paired with Run DMC's cover of "Walk This Way"? You get this bizarre creation, that's what.

Oh, if you want to watch Elon Musk's trash float towards another planet, you can watch it live. Amazingly, yet unsurprisingly, Flat Earther's think it was a hoax. Great.

All that being said, I think this is maybe the best thing I saw all week. You decide.

Stay safe. Be warm!
