unicorn charlie (It was more interesting than I remembered) and
harry potter puppet friends (It was less funny than I remember) It was considered the height of comedy. Other than the occasional 6pm viewing of ‘Australia’s Funniest Home Videos’, my comedy diet was limited to his 240p internet videos, passed around like schoolyard contraband.
I have to admit that not much has changed. I still spend a lot of time on the internet, and my friends and I constantly quote obscure pop culture references that have become memes. Sometimes I worry that this has rotted my brain. For now, I will carefully select videos that I found interesting.
