Martin Luther King Would Be Proud: The Daily Nooner (EST)!
Awesome Video Of The DayAn Interesting Response
This video is pretty average in a lot of ways - there are about a billion videos of people punching each other in the face on YouTube - but it does have one redeeming factor: it marks the first time in recorded human history that somebody has responded to a punch in the face with the phrase "Ah, fuck - I can't believe you've done this."
Not in TOTAL human history, mind you; with over 6 billion people on our planet, I'm pretty sure there are a handful of people out there who, after being punched in the face, have turned around in disbelief and said, "Ah, fuck - I can't believe you've done this." I'd estimate that it's happened around 14 times in a handful of different languages, but never before has there been a camera around to document it. This 11 second-long video marks the very first time that it's been recorded for posterity's sake, so don't write this off as another typical dude-gets-punched-in-the-face-on-YouTube video. It might be a video of a dude getting punched in the face, but it's also historically significant.
You know - because the guy says "Ah, fuck - I can't believe you've done this."
Incidentally, this particular blog post is historically significant in a very similar way: it marks the first time anyone on the internet has said "barnacle shuffle" or "King Tut's balls." What do I win?
I've got years of experience with writing anything from articles to reviews but this is really something...
ReplyNice looking page!
ReplyI want to thank you Ross for causing me to have the phrase "King Tut's balls" in my head
Replyall .... day..... long. Barnacle shuffle not so much.
I normally read the blurb before watching the video, and as soon as I saw the phrase "I can't believe you've done this" I immediately knew the person in the video would be British.
ReplyThat is all.
According to the search, you haven't said "king tut's balls" either, although I can clearly see ... hmmm ...
ReplySo you use firefox.
ReplyMicheal is the one in the black shirt.
ReplyAnd here we have rare footage of Micheal Swaim, at home, practicing for his next hilarious video blog.
ReplyI felt like punching him in the face to be perfectly honest.
ReplyThere must be a RickRoll in here somewhere... and I'm not falling for it.
ReplyAh fuck, I can't believe I've done this
ReplyMaybe, rather than hanging out with guys that are prone to punching him in the face, he is just a guy who is prone to being punched in the face for no reason.
ReplyCongratulations, Someguy. I hope you get a day off in comemoratrion of your achievement.
ReplyI can't help but wonder... why do people hang out with guys that are prone to punching them in the face for no reason? Have you no real friends?
FIRST!
