I watched it and it honestly is pretty cool, kinda catchy and funny and reminiscent of some steam orange box edit from 15 years ago
The youtube comments are full of ~20 year olds complaining about it though (probably mostly ironically but still)

Always thought this was a goofy ass compulsion, just let the kids enjoy things?
They’re right in that the things kids enjoy usually do suck, but wrong in thinking that doesn’t apply to the stuff they liked when they were kids
Ding. Half the stuff I loved as a kid, sucks. Half of that, I still love. Because its okay to love things, especially the largely inconsequential. No struggle, just fun.
Do I hate a lot of what teens love today? Mostly, yeah! And they can still go out and enjoy as long as it doesn’t directly harm others. They have no authority and relatively little decision making capacity - it is quite literally THEIR TIME to enjoy dumb shit the most.
I still like the flash animation “MY ANUS IS BLEEDING”, even though I absolutely know that if I first see it today, I’d be averse and annoyed at hearing the line.
G.I. JOEEEEEEEEEEE porkchop sandwiches
Isn’t that from the weird art-film about an animator whose life slowly crumbles around him as he fails to land new gigs? I think it’s still pretty good. asdf movie however… I will not rewatch that
its a short by Don Hertzefeldt (hope i spelled it right), who also made the excellent animation ‘it’s such a beautiful day’, which is one of my all time favorite movies. also made the animation ‘world of tomorrow’ which is probably some of the best speculative sci-fi i’ve seen.
minor bit of pedantry, despite the simplistic stick figure art style its distinctly NOT flash animation, he does everything analogue (paper and an old school photograph machine) which allows for some wild visual techniques and mixed-media stuff.
Yeah I remember the crumbling paper being very impressive. It was really cool.
Don Hertzfeldt is awesome, he’s gotten many offers to do actual commercials but turned every one of them down, which was his inspiration for Rejected
but then Pop Tarts did a whole ad campaign where they just blatantly ripped off his style
Yeah that’s a Don Hertzfeldt film. Dude makes incredible shit.
Morbid curiousity led me to google and gyatt daayuum i wish i hadnot
Try “My spoon is too big” if you want the animation and not bleeding anuses.
I honestly think kids got some better stuff these days than what I grew up on. Not across the board, but where was Phoebe Bridgers and her music when I was in middle school? She was probably a zygote and I suffered for that.
