Re: Post the last thing you laughed at online
It's always amazing to me how much parents really, really hate Caillou. I can't say I blame them. Fun fact: Canada used to have eleven provinces, but Caillou obliterated one of them and he might be coming for the others.

every time I hear parents talking about Caillou it's about how the show makes their kids super cranky and unpleasant

I believe this. When I worked at the library, people could borrow a DVD and watch it at a cubicle with a pair of headphones. People would also sometimes watch on their laptops or whatnotPerrydotto wrote: ↑Mon Jun 17, 2019 1:06 amevery time I hear parents talking about Caillou it's about how the show makes their kids super cranky and unpleasant
Anyway, a big ass fight broke out in the kids reading room between two previously quiet little kids who were chuckin blocks and screaming at each other, because their mom sat them down to watch fuckin Caillou together

Re: Post the last thing you laughed at online
hey look Wikipedia has a Caillou page
don’t blame weed for CaillouOn May 1, 2017, the National Post writer Tristin Hopper identified Caillou to be "quite possibly the world's most universally reviled children's program," noting "a stunning level of animosity for a series about the relatively uncontroversial daily life of a four-year-old boy."[21] Examples include several "I hate Caillou" pages made on Facebook, posts saying that Caillou is a ripoff of Charlie Brown, numerous parenting blogs criticizing the series, and petitions on Change.org for the show to stop airing.[21]
A common criticism towards the series is the whiny and temper-tantrum behavior of the titular character, the lack of consequences Caillou is given for it and the poor parenting presented in the parent characters.[21] As Hopper explained, "This has understandably led to theories that this is an accurate portrayal of Canadian parenting and that Canada is raising a generation of psychopaths. Or that Caillou's parents are so blasted on Canadian weed that they are unable to summon the presence of mind necessary to properly discipline their child."[21]

I actually saw a Caillou blind bag toy somewhere. I should have picked up one as a companion for that Johnny Test toy I still have for some inexplicable reason.

Whenever I zapped through the TV channels and encountered Cailou I had the sudden urge to barf.

Re: Post the last thing you laughed at online
It's a Twitter meme for when someone does something a whole lot, without being prompted, hence "nobody" saying or doing anything before the other person actually being talked about does a thing. For some reason I've always found it irrationally annoying, likely since in nearly all cases the joke comes across just fine without the "Nobody:" part. Brevity is the soul of wit, after all.
I don't get this particular joke, but I guess the character mentioned is known for doing that thing way too much.

Yeah, the meme went from meaning "person says thing nobody wanted to hear" to just "person says thing, ha ha I use popular meme am I cool now" in a big hurry.Fizzbuzz wrote: ↑Wed Jun 19, 2019 1:21 pmIt's a Twitter meme for when someone does something a whole lot, without being prompted, hence "nobody" saying or doing anything before the other person actually being talked about does a thing.

I just assumed the joke was a reference to some game I never played, possibly a Final Fantasy title with a name like that, and it was leaning exceptionally hard into the meme format.

It's just like in cartoons, where they cheat with how the characters look depending on what angle they're facing!
Except it's now in live-action!

Re: Post the last thing you laughed at online
What happens when a duo of game developers do their best to not develop but to create a huge pile of trash and release it on the Google Play store.
TL;DW
Two developers downloaded a slot machine template from the Unity Asset store and automated the re-skinning of it, as well as the build and the publishing process to the point that they had only to type a word into an input mask and it gathers the necessary image data from bing and google to do it. Over several years and ad support they gained about $50k of ad revenue from hundreds of games (or one game to be frank).
I totally recommend watching it because it was a comedy marvel.
