openRed & Yellow Dog Mascot? Web Original
I'm looking for a red and yellow chihuahua mascot found in flash games and in magazines. I could've sworn it was owned by National Geographic but for the life of me I can't remember it's name. Probably started with a Z iirc. That dog was a part of my early childhood.
openForum Thread about Worldbuilding races Web Original
I remember finding some sort of thread, either on World Building or Writer’s Block, that was like the Hero and Villain Critique Threads, but for races/species/cultures.
openEpisode of Atop The Fourth Wall Web Original
I don’t remember what he was reviewing, but I think it was either a tv show episode or a movie, and I remember a specific joke he made in the review.
He was joking about a transition effect that seemed silly to him, before the transition happened to him, he began screaming, and when the transition ended he looked disheveled and scared, asking something along the lines of “where did I go?”
Edited by BlueBlazesopenYoutube show about a man in a dinosaur suit Web Original
I’m looking for a weird You Tube show. It was about this guy, who meets this time traveling dinosaur (portrayed as a guy in a cheap dinosaur suit), who can talk (well mostly he just opens his mouth and a long line of words that doesn’t even attempt to match the mouth movement) and likes to punch him. The last episode I remember of it, the dinosaur was sick and they had to find pieces of a healing machine, before they end up accidentally traveling through via a time machine that looked like a Christmas ornament.
resolved Homestar runner cartoon Web Original
I'm looking for a cartoon where Strong Bad has missed a bunch of developments in the other character's lives and ends up freaking out thinking he has somehow traveled to the future only for the end to reveal he spent an entire year, maybe longer, bouncing a ball against the wall. It wasn't a sbemail and it took place during the winter
Edited by dutchguy1986openComedy videos about finding Bigfoot and yeti (probably same person?) Web Original
Around 2011 I saw a live action You Tube video about someone finding a Bigfoot in the woods, sitting sad in front of a tree, and committing suicide, pretty sure with a gun, and is revealed to be holding a magazine or newspaper with really sad news.
In late 2014 I saw another one I think was from the same person, but very similar style if not. Was about the person finding a yeti who started throwing snowballs at them, and might have stole their car and flipped them off or something.
Any idea what these were? The person I saw them with found them unintentionally while looking for serious videos about Bigfoot and yeti sightings. Don't think you could tell they were obvious fake comedy without watching them. Thanks.
Edited by GanSaibouopenMovie trivia website(s) Web Original
Last year or so, I remember using this site that listed off people involved with a movie and told you who had since died and how old the living ones were now. Can't remember if it was the same site or not, but I also remember a feature where you could submit your age and an actor and it would tell you which movies they did when they were your age.
openConversationCut Web Original
I remembered watching a video where they made fun of the Conversation Cut they had a car they drove between places and they were planning a robbery or maybe an assassination. Also I remember they were eating a twizzler during the part where they asked to like and subscribe and that part was also in the form of a Conversation Cut
openWeird Old Flash Cartoons Web Original
These were two short cartoons made by the same animator about a dozen years ago. One had a guy say, "There's a lot you don't know about me," before tearing off his disguise to reveal a giant flea that danced to Super Mario Bros. music. The other had a guy getting hassled by flying nautili that were portrayed as inner city thugs.

Edited by NathanforesteropenLizard in island animation Web Original
There was this computer-animated short film I saw on You Tube of this lizard in an island or beach. One scene I remember is when the lizard was climbing up a palm tree, probably chasing this other small creature, and the creature caused a coconut to fall on the lizard. The lizard went down with the coconut and caused a crater in the sand. After some seconds, the lizard lifted the coconut in a manner similar to the alligator lifting the hippo in Fantasia. Then another coconut fell on the lizard, sending it back down.
Edited by EortizopenBugs and daffy pushing each other minigame Web Original
There was this online game that was a collection of minigames (or at the very least, had a lot of minigames) based on Looney Tunes (or Warner Bros.) One of these minigames was a pushing contest between Bugs and Daffy, and you played as Bugs.
openOnline animation about real soda that could be different flavors depending on how one opened it Web Original
I may have found it via Pointless Sites or Explorable Explanations. It was a minimalistic artstyle animation (no shading, lineless, clean shapes) detailing a person's real experience with this sort of soda that flavored itself with the cap, if I remember right, or it just depended on how you opened it. EDIT: If you know the name of the soda, that might help me find the animation.
Edited by bigshotresolved Spooky song in meme video, sounds like video game music Web Original
Does anyone know the name of the spooky music in this meme video? I asked the uploader, and they didn't know. I guess they reuploaded this from another website or something.
It sounds like something out of a video game, possibly one of the Mario Party games.
Edited by DrNoPumaopenMGS parody video Web Original
Metal Gear Solid parody in the form of a Codec conversation. The Colonel calls Snake in the middle of an important mission to invite him to a Tyler Perry movie. The Colonel says something like, “Yeah, in this one Medea goes to jail and—” before losing connection, ending with, “SNAAAAAAKE!”
Edited by PurpleEyedGumaopenPower Rangers Team up fanfic Web Original
There’s this Power Ranger fic where Dino Thunder teams up with several other Ranger Teams including an OC team. Trent the White Dino Ranger dies cause the author doesn’t know how to write him or something. One Ranger ends up in Super Sentai universe where he meets the Gokaigers. The Timerangers apparently gave Gokai Silver something so the Gokaigers would know about future teams.
openWatchmojo episode Web Original
I want to make a D To S page about them but I can't remember the episode. It was an episode where they thought a man mourning his niece was silly.
I remember this one youtube video of a game review channel of sorts that was linked to on an old wikia page, it had a green screen of a sorta lab area when the main guy was talking, and a talking brain in a jar, I do only know there was. One video about Crash Bandicoot
