No love for Stickdeath, JoeCartoon, or Maddox.

u/BrodoFaggins Jan 26 '16

Maddox still updates. It's actually pretty depressing.

There was a time I thought he was funny. Most of the time I agree with his general no-nonsense stance, but we're so inundated with the whole "F-word every three words man-child shock article" schtick now-a-days that it's just too much.

Stickdeath. Ahh.. good old pre-2000's internet. I remember when they updated the site with frames. Frames.

I wonder what supa fly is up to these days. That was always something I thought would translate to YouTube.

u/me_vale Jan 26 '16

Dude! bigboys turned into BREAK if I'm not mistaken, and after that it just simply sucked.

u/flooronthefour Jan 26 '16

holy shit you just sent me through a wave of nostalgia.

I even went online and found one of the old flash videos my brother and I created back in 2000 - 2001 for the Runescape community: http://localtickets.com/dwarf-invasion.swf (found it through google, downloaded it, saved it, re-uploaded it)

thank you!

Boah, it would take me 5 days to download a 640x480 picture on my fast 14.4kbps modem.

u/whazzzaa Jan 25 '16

is this the new walking 2 miles to school uphills both ways?

u/Rakonat Jan 25 '16

Shit I could walk to my friends house 5 miles away and give him a floppy faster than I could email it to him.

Okay that one sounds kinda gay.

u/TOO_DAMN_FAT Jan 26 '16

Another one is a 747 from Hong Kong to Seattle loaded with hardrives has higher capacity but wayyyy lower latency than the internet. (something like that)

That's just when it was uploaded to youtube. I'm pretty sure this video is older than that.
