Somehow this is actually super relaxing to me. I’m just used to hot summer sun 80% of the year.

Thank you.

It’s gonna take a bit of explaining, so bear with me.

You guys know Al Jazeera, right? The news channel that everyone loves. Well uh… in the 2000s, they had other non news related television networks. A series of sports channels, a documentary channel, and… a children’s channel (we’ll call it JCC for short). Depending on the time period, at night they don’t broadcast programs at all, and instead they aired an animated test card that looped all night long. Before 2009, it looked like the EBU color bars, but they actually made it seem alive. I don’t remember that one very fondly. From 2009 to about 2012-13, it was just the channel logo in a night setting, but with extremely soothing music (a remix of the channel’s theme song) and sound effects that actually genuinely made me fall asleep on multiple occasions.

I actually managed to find recordings of both test cards on this French website, right here.

Downvote me for asking the Google Assistant (I know Lemminos despise Google), but this is what it had to say:

“Love seems like one of the most important things people can share.”

I couldn’t ever recall having a dream where I had a cell phone. Hell, I don’t think I communicated with anyone in those dreams outside of literally conversating face to face.

You can have a single color t-shirt be very flashy, as long as it’s the brightest shade of lime green you can think of. That’s what I have, and my mom hates it.

Television was actually fun to watch. Magazines were actually fun to read. Video games were actually fun to play. Hell, playing outside was fun. Playing with toys was fun (even as an adult). Spending time with users on early internet forums was also very fun. Music was much more aesthetically pleasing to listen to (at least the hits of the 00s were, imo). We fidgeted with literally anything we could think of. Pens, rulers, balls (it’s not what you think), toys, even our own fingers.

It was really easy to get bored back then too, but at least it was really easy to escape boredom back then.

Mario Party Advance on the Game Boy Advance.

I’ve seen kkclue’s very recent video on it. The main problem with this game is the false advertising, it doesn’t feel like a Mario Party game. Otherwise, it’s an alright game.

I have made YouTube videos in the past when I was too young to be allowed on the site, looking back at them, it’s safe to say that I’m glad I deleted them when I had the chance (even from the device that recorded them) because I’ve never cringed this hard at my own stuff before.

Maybe I could do it again once I’m good enough at video editing and humor.

And the Netherlands with Wilders

That explains why my friend’s Xbox got stolen. It was an original Xbox, too. Holds eggs perfectly.

If you’re in Morocco, then you better go to your nearest cafe to watch sports. But it’s almost always exclusively football (aka sakker), so you’re gonna get bored after a while.

Just don’t steal the idol and you’ll be fine. Otherwise, run for your life.

I just described Temple Run.

Now I wish there were other candidates.

My cat has only one emotion: not giving a damn about me

Eh, I couldn’t really think of anything that isn’t already pointed out by somebody else in the comments, so this is the thing that came to mind.

That first one is actually pretty good. For some reason I have never heard of the other three.

Go ahead. Downvote my comment with pleasure.

Wow, I can’t believe I overestimated the size of these things.

Yeah, honestly I do. I knew incorrect information, spread it, and was replied to with a correction.

I had 6, and today I have 0. Yep, I lost all my fidget spinners.
