Best Meme



It's been a while since my last blog post, but hopefully that will be changing soon. I had inspiration for a video, and that inspiration turned to two, and then three. My problem was that these three videos were very similar- they would have been short spoofs of three prominent and similar internet memes. Ultimately, I decided to put all three together in a single video and let people vote on which one is the best.

The first is the Falcon Punch, also known as the Falcon PAWNCH. It is originally from F Zero, the signature attack of the character Captain Falcon, whom many of you might recognize from the game series Super Smash Brothers if you aren't native to the F Zero series like myself.

Up second, we have the Shoryuken, a spiral uppercut from the Street Fighter Series, made particularly famous by Street Fighter II.

Finally, the third is from Atop the Fourth Wall (AT4W), a joke made by Linkara initially in his review of "Superman at Earth's End". In the comic, Superman is having an argument with an Android, Ben Boxer, and says, "You are an Android. I am a MAN!" before punching Ben Boxer in the guts. Linkara has made this a regular joke on his show, and it has become a meme in its own right.

But which of these is the superior punching themed meme? That's for you to decide. Post your vote here on the video or here on my blog. I used clips from the recent Green Lantern movie, mostly because i couldn't find any videos that had spoofed the green boxing glove scenes yet and I thought it needed to be done.

Captain Falcon and F Zero GX are the properties of Nintendo. Street Fighter II is the property of Capcom. Linkara is the original character of Lewis Lovhaug, whose show is a part of Channel Awesome's flagship Network, That Guy with the glasses. Green Lantern is the property of DC comics.


I am going to see about putting a poll up on the blog so people can cast their votes. Nonetheless, I encourage everyone to post their votes in the comments anyway. As to my return to blogging, I am hoping to make this a weekly thing again, but maybe Wednesday would be better than Fridays.

Ahoy thar ye land lubbers! I was goin' ta be doing internet jokes this week, but in dedication to an old friend I'll be seein' today, I decided to dedicate this week to the best Pirate jokes this side o' the seven seas!

1. There was a reporter interviewing a retired buccaneer about his many years living at sea. As she understood it, he had lead a very long and exciting life. Trying to find an exciting story, she started the interview by asking, “So, Captain, how did you get your peg leg?”

The Captain responded, “I got too drunk one night and broke me’ ankle. The ship doesn’t have a doctor, so we cut it off and put the leg on thar.”

The reporter was disappointed, because she had expected a more exciting story. Not to be discouraged, she would move on to her next question, asking him how he had gotten the hook on his hand. He responded, “ ‘Twas me night to cook and I wasn’t paying attention when cuttin’ the food. Like before, we didn’t have no doctor te fix me up, so we put the hook on there.”

Once again, the story had been less exciting than the reporter had hoped. In a final act of desperation, she asked about the path on his eye, to which he explained, “I was out on the deck lookin’ at the sea when a seagull flew overhead and its droppin’s fell clear into me eye.”

The reporter was confused. “That’s why you wear a patch on your eye?”

The Captain responded, “Well, I’d only had me hook for a few days!”

Kickassia Presidential Debate- Dr. Insano V. Nostalgia Critic



For some of my more loyal followers, this video has become more of a rumor or a teaser than a project. I recorded my voice for the audio on the text slides, which is what took most of my time up, in addition to fixing three clips that had broken sound I could not use.


Even for those with the mildest of political interests, I believe this should still be quite funny.

Linkara Tribute- Holding out for a Hero



Lord Vyce, Black Lantern Spoony, Dr Linksano, Dr Insano and Mechakara want to destroy the world, and only one person can stop them. Lord Vyce might be an interdimmensional conqueror, Spoony might be a Black Lantern, The doctors might have the power of science and Neutro, and Mechakara might be an android, but Linkara, he is a MAN!

Linkara is the property of Lewis Lovehaug and channel awesome, as is Atop the Fourth Wall. Footage was taken from Reviews of Mighty Morphin Power Rangers, Power Rangers Zeo, Superman Distant Fires, Neutro and Warrior. This video also features Noah Antwiler, the Spoony One, and Lindsey Ellis, the Nostalgia Chick.

Music is "Holding out for a Hero" by Frou Frou.
