openYoutube video about guy who goes into Japanese hobby shops... finds a Boku No Pico figure? Web Original
A few years ago I saw a vlog video of a young white man from the US visiting Japan, and he goes into some Japanese toy and hobby stores with a female Japanese friend of his. I seem to remember he had a lot of videos about living in Japan on his channel. At one point in the video I'm looking for, he finds a figurine that I swear was of two characters from Boku No Pico and he asks his friends in Japanese "What is this? Hentai?" and she laughs and tells him yes. I've actually found what I believe to be the figure from the video but I want to make sure. Does anyone else know what video this is?
opensome sort of show Web Original
I remember watching this cartoon about a yellow, shaggy haired boy, with shiny blue eyes, and a blue-green outfit, who looked somewhat like beaker if he fused with tweek , as a child sometime in 2011 online. I swear one of the mario characters was in it. The only part I remember is one where I think he was singing about something related to dinosaurs, or something, and i'm pretty sure it has its own page on this site.
Once, when I was little, I saw this show on treehouse with a lady, and a raccoon puppet, making crafts out of things like, cups, paper, and other things you'd find around your house. I think at one point, there was a tiger.
Edited by cake64openStory written in second person Web Original
I remember reading a short story online that was written in second person about a guy talking to you at a bar and he's trying to find info on some tv show he and his sister watched as children. It was vaguely unsettling because it was like his sister and his lives revolved around figuring out what the tv show was, to the point that before his sister died she asked him to keep searching
openangry birds plush toy series Web Original
I used to watch this series made with plush toy angry birds, some things I remember are, a black and white bird who wasn't an angry bird, who would sometimes throw themselves out the nearest window in that scene, and I'm pretty sure said character was cooked in one episode. Some other things are, a white bird who said, "i gotta crap!" and dropped an egg, and I think there was a puppet as well.

openYTPMV Web Original
This was a You Tube Poop Music Video (YTPMV). I remember very little about it, but I do remember the background music was the main menu music from Wario Land: Shake It! (Wario's garage). It started with the end of the song for some reason, and among the sources used in the video was Daffy Duck saying "Shoot me now!" Would have probably been from 2009 or 2010.

A PSA were women speak to dogs in a catcalling tone.
openYoutube video about the elements Web Original
From 2007?-2009ish, I looked up many videos of Tom Lehrer's The Elements. One video I found that was not related to Tom Lehrer was this one skit which starts off with Doc Brown showing up in a De Lorean. He asks this 20-30something guy (or guys, there might have been two) for plutonium. The guy(s) looks for other elements, and for silicon he found someone with silicone implants. At the end, one of the people says "I'll just go with sillicon" or something like that. Someone also says something like "What about Uranium, it's named after Uranus"
Edited by jgrif57003openYoutube Animation about RPG Style Adventurers? Web Original
I remember I found this really funny animation on youtube which took place in an RPG style world. It was about these heroes for hire. There was a nerdy mage I think, an edge lord kind of guy maybe, and also a fighter who had two moms apparently. The only job they could find, however, was from this sort of valley girl type person i think? And they had to get her cat out of a tree, I'm fairly certain. Then they end up meeting this girl who's also a fighter type character. She wants to join, but they don't want another fighter. That's all I remember from there. I also remember it being really funny I guess. But that's subjective. I just liked it more than some other rpg based youtube animations, and I wanna see if the series was ever continued. It came out around 2015-16 or something

openKids Show about Office Supplies Web Original
I can vividly recall an episode of a kids show about office supplies that travelled to Machu Picchu in an episode, and talked about an ancient fr of communication involving strings and knots.
I remember there were about four characters; a pen, a pencil, and a paperclip, but I can't remember the fourth character if there was one. I watched it in fourth grade around 2010-2011. Can anyone help me out?
Edited by baambeiopenShort Youtube Skit on the Games our Brain Plays Web Original
In the same vein as my other question Two distinct clips were one about how when we're throwing a ball when lying down, we try not to hit the ceiling whilst throwing it as high as possible. And then imagining a thing running along the scenery outside your car window, never touching the ground.
I don't know if it was a trailer but I cannot for the life of me find it again
openweb series about female casting calls Web Original
There was a series on Youtube a few years ago that was about a woman and some of her fellow female actor friends trying to find a paying role that didn't cost her too much dignity and I can't remember the name of it now, nor are searches helping.
At least one episode is her at her apartment just reading awful real casting calls off of a fake casting site and her boyfriend not seeing what the problem with them is, at least if she got one of them she'd be able to pay her share of the rent.
At least one episode is a gross audition experience.
The last episode has her come across a listing for an actual human character, go to the audition, find pretty much every woman in the industry also came to audition, so the casting department locked the overflow in what's essentially a closet, and after an awkward silence they start singing "Do You Hear The People Sing" and then march out to demand they be heard, only to be told the role has been filled and would any of them be interested in the bimbo on this other production?
openSpongebob Brickfilm Web Original
From what I can remember: It's about Spongebob's regular day working at the Krusty Krab until a Walker from Star Wars (don't remember if it's AT-AT or an AT-ST) shows up and tries to attack the Krusty Krab but Spongebob destroys the Walker by grabbing out a Lightsaber and reflecting the Walker's laser fire back at it. A man in wizard-like clothing comes out of the remains of the Walker and fights Spongebob with his own Lightsaber. But ultimately, Spongebob wins that fight as well. Don't remember much after that.
openMortal Kombat - Shao Kahn vs. Raiden Flash Animation Web Original
I remember watching this video on either You Tube or Newgrounds back in late 2009 where someone used sprites from Mortal Kombat 2/UMK 3 to make a flash animation of them fighting. It wasn't gameplay or anything like that, just an animation of the two fighting with some text boxes popping up of them talking and taunting each other. One of them referred to the other as their "brother" or something. It also had this cool song playing in the background during it (it was the only audio in the video as there were no sound effects used) and to this day I have no memory of what the song was called or the actual video title. Can anybody help?
openI can't remember what this website was called Web Original

resolved Sprite Movie series with Yoshi and Kirby [SOLVED] Web Original
There was this old sprite movie series on You Tube from like 2007-2008-ish involving Kirby and Yoshi living together. There was this one episode where they get robbed by a Bandit named BG Bandit. There were also two recurring characters called the Super Soccer Bros(?) who taught Yoshi and Kirby special moves like the Bros. Moves in Mario and Luigi: Superstar Saga. The sprites used looked like they were from Game Boy Advance games.

This one might be a bit obscure, but there was this video of a funny custom Guitar Hero III song I saw that was just a bunch of rapid-fire 5-fret chords, all star power notes, set to AC/DC's Thunderstruck (it was kind of a pun, since each star power note would summon a lightning bolt from above). Not sure who made the video, but chances are it could be Exile Lord, since some of his videos feature him customizing the game.
