"I wish I was four again".

I remember wetting my pants (literally!) at being left at Infant school & watching mum walk across the playground home & I couldnt go with her

 (But 5! What are we doing to our kids- at five I was still digging for buried treasure, building dens, hunting for crabs in rock pools and playing with toy soldiers and lego).

We're giving them smartphones, and tablets, and internet. I'm glad I'm not growing up now. Just think what it would be like being on facebook in your early teen years. Yikes.

I didn't quite go that far but I did cling to my mothers skirt and refuse to let go, had to be dragged away eventually (she had the buckie).

I love a bit of weirdness to start the day Bungo    

[bungobaggins]

I don't understand why that didn't work.

Here's the link.

Ah, to be young again and full of angst.   

[halfwise]

I've just rediscovered this series.  It's adorable.



I think Figgs would empathize.


Fuck it, I'm having the bungo problems.  How does this work now?

All this talk of goats in another thread reminded me of this



Living on a prayer is hilarious

[Ringdrotten]

The one at 1:00 is priceless

[Norc]

priceless

[azriel]

Loved it Ringo !! Usher, Jay-Z, Minaj     Especially Usher, cos he thinks he's gods gift to women !! But Guetta ?? I love that tune !

[Forest Shepherd]

The goat at 1:00 is a buck. They are the weirdest goats. They can get pretty aggressive sometimes, smell absolutely awful during mating season, tend to have more hair than the does, pee on themselves (all the ones I've been around have, on the head especially, eau de goat), and make the most ridiculous noises when around the females. I guess people and goats have some things in common.   

Several of those were sheep! Misleading video title..   
:10 -Pretty sure that's a sheep, unless I'm way off here. I can't see the groove sheep have on the front of its nose, but that looks like wool, and the head shape is sheepy.
:50 -sheep
1:15 -sheep
Black lamb at the end.

And there is no way in hell that kid lamb at the end has a voice that deep. Or can make a "yyy" sound for that matter.

[Ringdrotten]

Yeah, the title is very misleading. Funny stuff about bucks, though, I didn't know they were that weird

That was brill   great fun, love the spider ? bug ? at the end !

[Forest Shepherd]

Very cute.   

Although it does remind me of the times that I had to help care for runty goat kids that were so weak they couldn't survive on their own and whose mothers ignored them for some freakin' reason and who had to be brought inside to the warmth and cuddled in blankets and bottle-fed but for whom nothing eventually worked and who eventually died in my arms wimpering soft "maahs" as the life drained from their eyes...

[Forest Shepherd]

This will take a few links, so stick with me.

Watch the "Kids React to Rotary Telephones" video by these same people. Pause at ~:58.

Spoiler:

Then load this video and watch right around 1:00 to 1:05.

Spoiler:

The young kid reminds me a lot, appearance-wise, of that British guy from the "Secret Audition Tape." And not only that, but I was a few people behind this one guy at an Arctic Monkeys concert in Oakland (great show by the way   ) who, during the hour before the show, kept turning around to look for members of his group or something. That guy was almost identical to the British guy I mentioned above. It was so striking that my sister, who was at the show but standing further up in the press of the crowd, mentioned the resemblance to me afterwards. Anyway.   

By the by, has anyone ever seen that "Secret Audition" video before? If you haven't, you might want to stick around until 4:08. You might be surprised who shows up.    (Edit: oops no you won't. I missed the title)

There used to be more videos from that mockumentary available on youtube, but I believe they were taken down. I've been able to find the whole thing somewhere else, but it was low quality and I can't seem to find it at the moment.   
They had an interview with Brian Sibley in it, and although it plodded a bit overall, it had some good moments. Ian McKellen actually shows up in a few different places.

It was one of those strange videos I remember seeing several years ago, one that I couldn't explain. Why, exactly, would McKellen be involved I wondered?
I'm still not certain, but I did peruse the forum that the group of people responsible for the mockumentary used, and got a feel for the young, college-age film-making community they had going. It was all long-abandoned, and had a terribly melancholy feel to it therefore.
Still, that's what you get for snooping around old internet sites. It can be like history-in-miniature out there. And ghost towns there are aplenty.

[Forest Shepherd]

Triple-posting! Sorry.

I found it though!
Apparently someone involved uploaded it to youtube five years after it first came out.

That is such a choker ! so sad !! Poor little things !
