JonTron - Gaming Compounds

 

I don't understand eSports, I don't know what a gaming compound is, I don't know what 100 Thieves denotes, I am lost. Funny video though.

 Do you need me to tell you it's an abomination? How long can you listen?

The First 2 Hours of MTV's Existence

 

MTV premiered August 1, 1981 - I missed the anniversary by 1 day - and you can now watch the first two hours ever broadcast on that channel, on youtube.

1981 is before my time and this is not my kind of music but it's still a quaint and interesting artifact, interesting enough for me to bother watching it.

A lot of people complain how MTV doesn't show music anymore - I was one of them. But I've finally reached the acceptance stage of grief and don't really care. I've reached the even more depressing conclusion that an MTV that showed music videos could never succeed today - everything is on-demand on the internet and no one has the patience to sit through any song that they don't like. In some ways this is progress, in some ways we're breaking down.

Late Show - The Best Stupid Human Trick

 I remember watching this live and I've thought about it ever since. On the one hand, I could never see any way that it could be fake - the camera is zoomed in and no tether is ever visible - on the other hand, I can't imagine how it would be real. 

Two thoughts to break the tie. 1, if it is as simple as sucking in air powerfully, the gum should not be arcing upward. 2, She adjusts her head and mouth to follow the path of the gum which tells you it isn't really suction at work. If it was, the gum would follow her.

The comments' consensus is that the gum is tied to a strand of hair. With 1080p and frame-by-frame advance I see no hair but "it wasn't HD video back then" is the only thing I can conclude.
