Friday Videos - March 23rd, 2018

posted March 23, 2018 #

Looking forward to some yk records announcements coming up and have been busy prepping that. In the meantime, I've been diving deep on that Heaven's Gate podcast, you should do the same.

Anyway, you're here for the distractions!
  • Chiitan Watermelon Attack - I nabbed this off Twitter, so hopefully it doesn't get yanked for copyright violation. Here's what you need to know, Chittan is a Japanese Otter mascot that has given the world of a smattering of hilarious videos featuring nothing but absurd tasks. There's plenty more on the official feed and around YouTube, enjoy the deep dive.
  • What Made Me Want to be a Greaser? - a vlog about how "Frosty the Greaser" came to be. I find this endearing and honest but also a nice reminder that I am very happy that I was not a teen when tools like YouTube existed.
  • Neil Young - "Wonderin" - 1983 music video from Mr. Young in which he teamed up with The Shocking Pinks and did a little doo-wop. The fashion here is speaking to me.
  • That's Alotta Ducks! - a massive swarm of ducks crossing the road. 40 seconds of "say whaaa?" Just enjoy it and don't think about any potential tragic backstory that may be involved.
  • Big Game Liquid Slam commercial - I barely remember this 90's commercial but, in hindsight, it really goes too far. ;)
  • TALKBOY Extended Commercial - it's amazing how long these commercials used to be and what they got away with.
  • Aleatory Music with Farm Implements - here's what I love about this, it's not aleatory music OR farm implements, it's an animation of composed music. It's entertaining but that completely inaccurate title makes it even better.
  • Gordon Ramsay's Pizza has Too Much Oil - an untapped resource.
  • Grandma Rages - just downright delightful.
