openA web series about geeks standing in line for a movie premiere Web Original
I vaguely recall watching (many years ago) a YT series (I think) about geeks standing in line for the next movie in their favorite franchise, and by "standing", I mean they arrive on the evening before the premiere and stand there all night. The main character has all his geek stuff, like action figures and such, in a bag, and then something happens and he gives his ticket to another person, then trades away all his action figures with other people in the line to get that person into the premiere. The ending sees him sitting in front of the theater, and then the technician who belittled him earlier, tells him he can come in and watch the movie from the projector room.
openWitch Dressup Girls Go Game? Web Original
I know there are tons of flash "witch dress up games" out there but I remember this one being different. It had lots of mini games that would help you unlock outfit items for your witch character. I specifically remember a "match three" falling candy game, a game where you create a tiny decorative hat, and one where you chose three different bath bombs and the combination would unlock a new clothing item. I'm fairly certain it was a Girls Go Games game, because I remember there was an option to take a picture of your character (along with the game host npcs) on halloween backgrounds and share it on your account. I'm suddenly super nostalgic and really want to find it, but it seems to be deleted from the website. Did it originate from a different website? I can't be the only one here who played this game?
openPseudo-fifties post-apocalypse Web Original
There was a web story where After the End there was a sort of safe Haven which was very Fifties with a breeding program, (Husbands have multiple wives and go to each family for a week at a time) and being super-racist (one of the characters has a Dark Secret of having Asian ancestry/heritage) POV was two teenagers 1 boy and 1 girl getting ready for the tests for their Bureaucratically Arranged Marriages.
Anyone recognize it?
openA creepy animated short about an "idol" that turns objects to random other objects Web Original
I remember everything about the short except for the title quite vividly. Two children, a boy and a girl, kill a rabbit and find an idol inside—a snarling goblin that shoots bolts that turn objects into other objects. (The idol is labeled "Idol", as every object or creature is labeled in the short.) The kids find that the idol loves jam and turns flies into diamonds and feather quills, and so feed it all the jam they can and slaughter a cow in order to attract plentiful flies.
This naturally ends poorly when the idol (IIRC) is eaten by a rabbit, and its effects all change—the feather quills turn to fly wings, while the flies turn back to normal, and in anger swarm and kill the children (somehow).
I know I saw it on You Tube but that friggin' title evades me...
openHaunted Soda Found Fooage Web Original
There was a internet video a long time ago of a dark room with a lot of soda cans inside. Somewhere still in packaging and stacked neatly, others were scattered on the floor. The camera was very unstable and the filmer was stumbling around in the dark. At one point the camera turns around to see a soda can floating through the air toward the camera. T He camera veers to the left before the video ends.
The description says something about "My body has been possessed by [soda brand]", but the title wasn't very descriptive. It may have just been numbers. There might also have been one or two parts before this video of similar footage.
Thanks.
open3D Animated Cat Series Web Original
I remember seeing a clip of what seemed to be a 3d web series with a purple cat-like creature that wore a mask that changed expressions. Does anyone know what it is?
openMiniclip game, grey man puzzle game Web Original
I played this on miniclip. You were a grey block guy, and you had to do different puzzles to get vhs clips. There were two games I think, and at least on of them had the clips. A lot of the puzzles had you walking in a certain way to light up tiles different colors to open doors. The video clip showed a woman who was either sick or crazy, and a man in her life leaving her. I can’t find the game on miniclip anymore, so it may no longer exist.
openLooking For A Fanfiction Web Original
I recall reading a long time ago on fanfiction.net a Ranma 1/2 fanfic where the premise was that Ranma was attached to a doll he called Chise IIRC and treated as if it was a real person. I don't remember the name, so if someone could tell it to me I'd much appreciate it.
openshow with unexpected endings?? Web Original
there’s this show i watched on netflix back in 2015 i think. maybe a web series? in one episode there’s this guy who hears a ringing sound coming from his apartment so he pretty much tore his whole apartment up trying to find where it’s coming from. at the end of the episode, after he pretty much drove himself crazy, a bug flies out of his ear
Edited by innerwaveopenInternet Mario Series Web Original
I remember very little, though I remember it being multiple parts. Mario was traveling through time (space?) I think by using F.L.U.D.D and was visiting various other game universes while doing it. I believe a whole episode was dedicated to The Wrecking Crew video game.
The main thing I do recall is his catchphrase was “Who the hell are you?”, and I believe at one point he met himself, who responds with “Who the hell does it look like?” Not sure if I saw this on You Tube, Newgrounds, or one of those older video sharing sites.
openOishi High School Battle Web Original
It was a show I watched long time ago in youtube, like in 2014-2015 that I'm not really sure but I think the protagonist was a pink haired girl who fought demons/monsters in the school and was the daughter of the devil, but it was like she was the only character drawn in the show, and the other characters and backgrounds were real, besides the part where she travels through a locker (I think) to hell or something like that, and there was this boy in college who was her crush, and that's all I can remember. please help

The world of magic goes through portals conquering uninhabited worlds until they come across an army from another habitable world, but one whose inhabitants are psychic. Any idea’s anyone?
openReddit subreddit Web Original
Isn't there a group of Redditors that take fictional characters in teams of 3 and pit them against other fictional characters in teams of 3? What was that called?
openPg-13 Animed Comedy? show Web Original
Cant remember too much exaclty. Followed a main girl character(Not pg friendly) who slept with other guys and smoked weed along with other bad things. I can remeber two distict moments, one where she is with another guy whos fiancee/girlfriend comes home so she hides in the closet. She then finds a dryer and masturbates on it causing her to get caught(wierd show I know). Then another where she talks with her gay male friend and she says she cut the brakes on his car and then his mother comes crashing through the house.
openRapper Simulator Web Original
I'm looking for a You Tube comedy video where two guys get a game that simulates the rap experience. However, all but one of the routes (which are annotations in the video) have you die at the end.
- The "gangsta rapper" route has you die in a shootout.
- The "swag rapper" overdoses.
- The "indie rapper" starves to death.
- The "pop rapper" sells out to white people and wins the game.
openSJA Fanfic - "Whatever Happened to Sarah Jane" follow-up? Web Original
A while ago, I read a Sarah Jane Adventures fanfic on A Teaspoon And An Open Mind. It took place after "Whatever Happened to Sarah Jane?" and featured Sarah Jane and Maria returning to the pier, modern-day. I remember that Sarah Jane mentioned that for while, she blamed Maria for Andrea's death. But I cannot for the life of me find the fanfic again, and I don't remember what it's called. Does anyone know?
openhalloween animation? Web Original
It was a short animation, and was playing the song "it is a mystery". As I recall, a girl was on the screen moving in sync with the song, then played a part of the song and had a close up on the girl's face, continued normally for a while until the final part of the song began and the girl was holding a pumpkin in one hand and a knife in the other, in the end appeared a person (I can not remember if it was man or woman) that was half snake and that was with his tail broken, and the girl in the video was sitting with a bag of candy on her side
openAn old animated web series...I think Web Original
I don't have any plot details, I'm mostly going off of a couple pictures, see below
https://imgur.com/gallery/D4xSZwu
Does anyone recognize this character? I thought I remembered seeing her somewhere before, I thought it was some old You Tube show kinda inspired by Eddsworld. I never watched it, but I definitely have seen this character before.
Anybody know? Google reverse image search hasn't helped at all, nor really any form of search

In this game you go around killing as many people as possible, as far as it goes it's pretty distinctive in art style, it has several sequels and a number of walkthroughs on You Tube, but I can't remember the name to go with the gameplay. I humbly beseech you all to help me find this game.
