These old videos are going to get really depressing around mid-2016. Like watching a train crash in slow motion and knowing you can't do anything to stop it.

That's exactly how I felt too

John's show: "Why should we care about the 2016 election? It's in more than a year. Also, about pangolins?" Us, today: "By knowing how much time you have left, you appreciate how precious it is. SAVOR IT, PAST JOHN"

Ahhh 2015, back when no one knew what a pangolin was… such innocent times 😢

Honestly, I was only aware of pangolins because it was a weapon manufacturer in the world of the video game Borderlands lol.

Kenny G might legitimately deserve a nobel peace prize because it's 9 years later and the US and China have yet to go to war.

Unironically this would be great if it was the standard song for closing time everywhere.

@cloudbrooks 12 күн бұрын

i feel like having a certain song for when its closing time is kinda fucked. imagine living for decades, kids growing up with that song "reminding them of home/making them want to go home as soon as possible", to paraphrase that one woman. then, imagine moving somewhere else. like yeah sure if it was that way EVERYWHERE then maybe it wouldnt be so bad but then imagine hating that song. and then u cant escape it by moving countries. and only being able to escape it by moving into the woods or something. i hate the whole concept 0/10
