That was definitely an ugly bird."
The one about techno is probably my favorite. I still have that song stuck in my head and I haven’t heard it in probably 10+ years. I’ll randomly say THE SYSTEM IS DOWN every now and then
a friend of mine used that song as his on-call ringtone for a while as a sysadmin
I quote this ALL. THE. TIME.

“Hello, my name is Trevor. I am a vampire and…”
I am a vampire and what? I am a vampire and… here’s a million dollars?

I was never a huge fan of the series, only watched a few animations, but this stuck with me.

I caught my kids to throw light switch raves, but they don’t know the context. It’s spread to their friends, also context-less.
But really, I don’t think anything can top that one email where Compy gets Old Yellered.
Lil Brudder was always my favorite. He has the heart of a champion!
The one where he talks about hot gluing corn flakes to your face, singing from the bowels of your lungs, and creeping rusty meat in reference to death metal is good.

Techno. My son does too. He throws light switch raves.
Or Crazy Cartoon. Or Japanese Cartoon.

Whats homestar runner? I looked it up but didn’t understand very quickly so I figured fans could tell me in a shorter way than a websearch can
It’s a website from the early 2000’s that had absurdist flash animations centered around weird cartoon characters in a fictional small town. It was kind of like a weird interactive TV show for a while.
Ah nice, that sounds cool. I probably would have enjoyed it if I had been old enough at the time
I’ve had to explain it to my younger friends from college that all these flash animations the old farts reference and nostalgiagasm over were simply the best media available on the internet at the time, because online video just wasn’t really a thing yet outside of flash animations

Is there a Homestar Lemmy? I’m missing this in my life.
