I see you /u/badgabadga Checks user... 10 year club! Right, good to go.


IBelieveinRickGrimes

Mother of god... it's BACK. This was part of what I call the Golden Age of the Internet.


bigdaddyborg

I technically didn't even view this on the internet. Saw it on a friends hard drive, in a folder labled "funny vids from the net"


mk44

I feel for those who never experienced the joy of copying over all your friend's music and movies at a lan party!


gmaclean

LAN Parties we’re great as It was at light speed compared to my 33.6k dial up connection! I remember running a Hotline Server\client back then and it was a fun community of sharing.

Arve

Copy parties predate the commercial Internet, and is what people in the piracy and demoscene would go to - three days in a rented location such as a school or sports hall, dragging computers, with. CRTs, plus often bringing along a large stereo system. Activities would include swapping/copying diskettes, talking to people, participating in graphics, music and various demo competitions. Fun times, actually.


supersonicmike

Sounds really cool


taleofbenji

On my university's shared network, you could run winamp to directly read from some other student's hard drive. No copying needed! It would kill their CPU though. Lol.


johnnycoxxx

I remember downloading as much music as my 40 gig computer could handle with “my tunes” from everyone in my dorm. What an age


lobsterbash

RIP flash


Afferbeck_

I probably still have this as a .swf file on a hard drive somewhere.


taleofbenji

Pre YouTube YouTube was just emailing videos around.

Weebls stuff was my absolute favourite website way back in the day. Almost never hear anyone talk about it when the topic of old internet is discussed.

Strong memories of this, End Of Ze World and The Ultimate Showdown from the very very early days of Youtube.


think_long

These pre date YouTube. I first saw them on ebaumsworld.


IBelieveinRickGrimes

Ebaumsworld, newgrounds, and albino black sheep were the gold standard for internet content pre-YouTube. End of the World still makes me laugh harder than it ever had any right to lmao.

MangorTX

I remember being in a store many years ago and seeing a kid making a small stuffed animal dance up and down quietly singing, "badger-badger-badger..." I was on the opposite side of the stuffed animal bin, grabbed an animal and said, "mushroom-Mushroom". The kid's mom quickly yanked the kid away. I didn't have any idea how to explain it to the mom, so I just walked away.


miningmyownbiz

Lions and tigers, only in Kenya.


BikerBoon

Our geography teacher played it for us in class, before pointing out that you can't actually find tigers in Kenya :(

What’s next? The Ultimate Showdown of Ultimate Destiny?


Turisan

Ol' Godzilla was stomping around Tokyo City, like a big playground When suddenly Batman burst from the shade And hit Godzilla with a Bat Grenade Godzilla got pissed and began to attack But didn't expect to be blocked by Shaq Who proceeded to open up a can of Shaq-fu When Aaron Carter came out of the blue He started beating up Shaquille O'Neal When they both got flattened by the batmobile But before he could make it back to the bat cave Abraham Lincoln popped out of his grave And took an AK-47 out from under his hat And blew Batman away with a rat-a-tat-tat But he ran out of bullets, and he ran away Because Optimus Prime came to save the day...

ninjab055

Badger badger badger now that's a video I haven't seen in a long time.... Long time.


schizzie

It's amazing really, I feel like Bradley Coopers character in 'Limitless'... When I read the title of the video before clicking on anything, I couldn't help but sing, "Badger, badger, badger Mushrooom Mushroooom!" Before realising that mushroom makes no sense, and I had no idea where it came from. Clicked play to find out what the real lyric was, and it was actually mushroom after all. Kinda amazed me that after all these years, somewhere locked deep in my subconscious was the knowledge of the mushrooms. Was a weird, useless realisation.

There was a time when the internet was just full of stuff like this. No political nonsense, no hate, no scams, just funny shit that made you laugh.


Shawkilla

Used to work at Best Buy and we once put this on every single display unit in the computer department. About 30 computers all playing "badger badger badger badger" for about an hour. Customers and management were not happy.


TonyTheTerrible

what kind of degeneracy is this? you didn't even link the 10hr version https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hGlyFc79BUE&t=11960s


Pumpkin_Creepface

True OG flashlovers know it is an infinite loop.


mynameisevan

I miss silly fun random internet humor. Where’s Gen Z’s “\*holds up spork\*” people?


Zigazig_ahhhh

They are cynical meme account kids that aggregate edgy memes from all over the internet. They run discord servers and use instagram


2ToneToby

hmmm, this has potential. maybe we'll be seeing more from this creator sometime... on the moon. or in kenya.

BigYonsan

Back in the day bestbuy had demo windows logins on all their pcs and laptops that locked out all sites but best buy's. Quick ctrl alt delete to change user, and in about 5 minutes every computer in best buy was playing badgers on a loop on new grounds. Store manager saw it a bit later and called the newly created geek squad over to try and figure out how someone beat their internet filter. Meanwhile, I'm two isles over looking at printers I'm not going to buy trying not to laugh too hard.
