Welcome to some serious mid-week MADNESS with I TRADED IN  MY DOG FOR TWICE THE RICE by  Creator, Director, and Musician Jordan Diniz. Diniz is the creator of the mind boggling bizarre  Youtube channel Treatsforbeasts as well other earlier video/musical projects. NOT a whole fucking lot is really known about Diniz like for example when researching I found shit like this “It is possible he is from Massachusetts.” which was IN-FUCKING-FURIATING! You damn well know fining information is gonna be a REAL son of a bitch if no one even knows where Diniz is from. I did manage to find SOME goddamn additional information which you will find below.

Broadcast Interruptions: Australia’s Channel 7 Mayday Incident

Welcome to FYB’s Wednesday Post featuring Australia’s Channel 7 Mayday Incident which is One of Several Broadcast Interruptions (More commonly known as Television/Radio Piracy) Posted here at FYB. If You’re interested They are Posted in the Strange and Disturbing Video Section. A Hijacking of a Broadcast Signal is Officially Know as a Broadcast Signal Intrusion (BSI) is as Follows. A Broadcast Signal Intrusion is the Hijacking of Broadcast Signals of Radio, Television Stations, Cable Television Broadcast Feeds or Satellite signals Without Permission Nor License. Hijacking incidents have involved local Television and Radio Stations as well as Cable and National Networks.

                    

What Happened:

On January 3, 2007, in Australia, during a Broadcast of an Episode of the Canadian Television Series Mayday (known in Australia as Air Crash Investigation) on the Channel 7, an Audio Signal unexpectedly started playing, clearly saying in an Southern American Accent, “Jesus Christ, Help Us All, Lord.” It’s Important to Note Some People Believe the Voice Message Actually Says “Jesus Christ, Help Us All Lord, Fuck.” This same Voice Message continued to Repeat Itself over and over during the Show for a Total of Six Minutes. A Spokesman for Channel 7 later Denied that the Transmission was a Prank or a Security Breach and Claimed that the Repeated Line was part of the Original Broadcast and said, “Jesus Christ, one of the Nazarenes”, although there is Hardly any Similarity between the Two Phrases. A Subsequent Investigation by Independent Researchers revealed that the Invading Transmission was actually from a Videotaped News Broadcast of a Civilian Truck being Ambushed in the Iraq War. It Remains Unknown whether or not this was an Intentional Act of Television Piracy or a Genuine Glitch of Some Sort.

                   

 Eye Witness Account:

” In Melbourne, Australia, on 3rd Jan 07, channel 7 aired a program about a plane wreck “Mayday”. From the start of the program the audio is a loop of a voice seeming to say “jesus christ help us all lord fuck”. It looped for maybe 10 minutes. I was watching at the time and shot part of it with my phone video. According to very reliable sources, there are many unsatisfied employees at channel 7. I have since been contacted by Preston Wheeler who is the man who actually shot the original video , and I have no reason to doubt him.” -User nedler-

Best Haul Video On The Internet (NOT What You Think)

Welcome to The FYB Monday Madness this Week featuring BEST HAUL VIDEO ON THE INTERNET. We wish in all Honesty that We could give the Talented Creator of this Video this Proper Credit They Deserve, but Unfortunately We were Unable to Locate the Creator’s Name.

Now for Those Who are Lucky Enough to be Unaware of what a Haul Video is allow Me to Enlighten You. Basically in a Nut Shell a Haul Video is Some Average Idiot consumed by Consumerism that after They Go Shopping They post a fucking Video to Show the Rest OF the World Their Purchases or Haul. I suppose this is the Evolution of the People who Post Every Single fucking Meal They Eat Online (like We give a fuck What You had for Lunch Today).

                  

Now this Video Starts of Normally for one of these Vapidly Asinine Haul Videos, but it Doesn’t take Long before the Insanity begins Seeping in. While Many may just Dismiss this as a some sort of Odd Art Project I think They would be Remiss. I believe there is Quite a bit more Going On in/with this Video than there Appears at First. It is Reminiscent of a Video We posted in Strange and Disturbing Videos that was a Schizophrenia Simulator. The Simulation was a Camera POV Shot as a Young Man wakes up and Starts His Day. The Simulator was Designed in an Attempt to Actually Show People what it’s like to suffer from Schizophrenia, and what Suffering with Schizophrenia is like for a Schizophrenic Person. This will make More Sense in a Minute.

                      

Strange Shit Found in BEST HAUL VIDEO ON THE INTERNET:

  • There is the Sound of Running Water almost like a Sink Running (though Some say it sounds more like a Flushing Toilet behind the Woman while She is Talking.
  • Every Photo and Lampshade in the Video is of the Same Exact Distressed Little Kid’s Crying Face.
  • A Voiceover int he Beginning of the Video asks “Is that a Chipmunk?” referring to the High Pitch of the Woman’s Voice.
  • In a Bizarre Remix the Woman’s Face is Slowly and Disturbingly Reanimated.
  • The Woman’s Starts to Move with the Beat of the Music.
  • The Woman’s Eyes start Blinking like Mad and itself is rather Unsettling.
  • Then all of a Sudden the Woman’s Face is Replaced with that of a Different Screaming/Hysterical Person’s Face.
  • Then the Background Starts to Distort as the WOman’s Eyes Multiply and are Redistributed All over Her Body.
  • The Woman’s Mouth is Doubled and Moved onto Her Forehead.
  • Music Continues as the Woman’s Face finally Returns to Normal.
  • The Woman’s Voice is Now Intentionally “Chipmunked” Which Matches the Earlier Voiceover in the Video.
  • The Video Ends with the Screen Going completely Black with a Male Voiceover that Simple Says or States “You Have Paranoid Schizophrenia.”

                   

So in My Opinion this is a Mental Health Awareness Video, and is Very similar to Videos put out by an Mental Health Organization “You Have Schizophrenia”. Unfortunately Their PR department Sucks ass at Their Jobs since if You try any Number of Word Combinations all the Results pertain to Schizophrenia on a Medical Mental Health Level (Like “Symptoms of Schizophrenia” or “Treatment Resources for Schizophrenics. I see where They were coming from with Their Name, but They also should have Realized how fucking, if not impossible, it would be for People to Locate Them.

Enjoy.

Short Horror Film Friday: BAKEMONO

Welcome to this Week’s Installment of Short Horror Film Friday featuring BAKEMONO by  by Sumire Takamatsu and Jorge Lucas who Wrote as well as Directed the Film.

What I found Interesting is the Evil Spirits in BAKEMONO are in fact Based on Hungry Ghosts.Hungry Ghosts is a Concept in Chinese Buddhism, Chinese Traditional Religion, Vietnamese Buddhism, Vietnamese Traditional Religion, Japanese Buddhism, and Tibetan Buddhism, Representing Beings Who are Driven by Intense Emotional needs in an Animalistic Way. Since the Family in the Film is Japanese I’m going to quickly Touch on Hungry Ghosts in Japanese Buddhism.

                    

In Japanese Buddhism, Hungry Ghosts are considered to have Two Variants: the Gaki and the Jikininki. Gaki are the Spirits of Jealous or Greedy People, Who as Punishment for Their Mortal Vices. The Gaki have been Curses with an Insatiable Undying Hunger for a Particular Substance or a Specific Object. Traditionally, this is Something Revolting or Humiliating like Decaying Human Corpses or Feces, but in Recent Years it can Virtually be Anything No Matter how Bizarre it may be. Meanwhile Jikininki (People Eating Ghosts) are the Spirits of Greedy, Selfish or Impious Individuals who are Cursed After Death to seek out and Eat Human Corpses. They Feed at Night Scavenging for Recently Deceased Human Bodies, and the Food Offerings Left for the Dead. Jikininki Lament Their Curse and Hate Their Vile Craving for Feasting on the Flesh of the Dead.

                    

Plot Summery: The Date is February 3rd, known in Japan as Setsubun, and is Supposed to be the Celebration of the Beginning of Spring. Families Celebrate by Casting out Evil Spirits from Their Homes.  Although at Ayumi’s House things have become so stressful You could Cut the Tension with a Knife. This is Due to Rebellious Ayumi who once again like so many Children is Refusing to Finish Her Dinner. In an Attempt to Remedy the Problem Ayumi’s Mother Tries to Scare Her into Compliance with a Terrifying Tale. As the Story goes if Ayumi Doesn’t Finish Her Dinner then an Evil Spirit will Enter the House and Eat it instead, But Ayumi is not Convinced that All Spirits are Evil. So Ayumi decides to test Her assumption by Inviting One in for a Midnight Snack, and Learns You should Never Feed a Hungry Ghost the Hard Way.

Enjoy.

CAST:

  • Ayumi – Claudia Fabella
  • Oka-san – Shio Muramatsu
  • Oto-san – Daisuke Suzuki
  • Bakemono – Sherry Q, Erin Yuqi Yang

Shits and Giggles: I Am Your Grandma

Welcome to a little midweek madness featuring I Am Your Grandma by  multimedia artist and filmmaker Julian Mayer. I Am YOUR Grandma is an manic autobiographical video diary if you will that Mayer recorded for her unborn grandchildren. By posting the video on YouTube, she conducts a sociological  study of why people feel compelled to share their personal lives with a entire world made up of anonymous strangers, and whether this sharing affects the actual emotional significance of the video itself. I Am Your Grandma challenges notions of one’s self-perception of mortality, social media, and  one’s legacy after they succumb to death. This video is a grim reminder we never live as long as we’d like.

Dread The Slammer

Welcome to today’s FYB Post featuring the Animation DREAD THE SLAMMER By Umami. For those unaware Umami (aka Justin Tomchukis a Canadian artist, composer, and content creator who makes surrealist animated videos. The title track for the video is the song “Fourth of the Earth” by Hexsystem which is the alias under which Justin Tomchuk composes and publishes music. Tomchuk’s musical genres include downtempo electronic music, particularly industrial and ambient music. Many of his Songs serve as the score to his videos while others are independent releases.

Mondays are despised for being the flag ship of the five day work week where we toil our lives away 8 hours a day for 40 hours a week for our entire adult lives. With that said when people say “Life’s Short” I interpret the meaning of this phrase differently than most. Most people believe the phrase is a commentary on how when it comes to the big picture our average human lifespan is just an insignificant blip in an eternal timeline. I believe the meaning is that life isn’t short due to the limitations pertaining to our lifespan, but rather that we waste the majority of our time on Earth working. As we labor laboriously we dream of the freedom provided by retirement, and once we obtain our cherished retirement we realize two sad facts.

                   

First we are too old to do a lot of things we would like to have done. At the age of retirement We are  limited by our physical decline as our anatomy slowly and inevitably decays. Thus we must come to the grips with the fact there was a myriad of things we wanted to do, but no longer have the physical ability to do. Those wishes, plans, and desires fall to the wayside and the windows of opportunity slip away. The second is we realize we haven’t actual lived our lives and enjoyed our time here.  Rather we wasted it working in the pursuit of a paycheck, and ended up just simply existing. Existing to earn money the very money that deprived us of a Pandora’s box worth of joy and pleasure that life has to offer us. The only reason this egregious waste of one’s life continues to exist in denying us the life we want to live is we as a society accept it. By accepting it we then tolerate it and even end up enabling a system of labor that erodes our lives until there is virtually nothing left but the scraps. In my opinion DREAD THE SLAMMER embodies this unfortunate fact in a stark and grim manner.

                

DIALOGUE FROM DREAD THE SLAMMER : Combined, we are. Perfect lines. Harmony. We share a mind. A Synchronicity. From dilution cost, hopes and dreams are lost. Fear does remain. Our enemy we blame. Above all else. We dread of the slammer. For if he were to striketh us. We flip. Then, the wake that follows may change us all.

Textpocalypse 2021: SQUATTERS

I’ve said it once and I shall say it again I am a Life Long Fan of Absurdity. I suppose that’s Why I love Shows like Trigger Happy T.V., The Eric Andre Show, Monty Python, Fawlty Towers, and Little Britton. I appreciate the Fact that not Only its Absurdity Wildly Entertaining in My Opinion but it’s Also Flexible. There is the More Commonly Embraced Out Right Absurdity, and as an Example I will Use a Text I sent on Our Family Text Chain on Friday September 17th at 3:02 pm:

“Fun Fact Friday: Neanderthals discovered Time Travel. It’s a Tragedy that They do Not receive the Immense Amount of Credit They Deserve for Their Amazing Discoveries in Time-Space Travel. The Root of Reason for this is Neanderthals were Considered to be “Primitive Man” by Archeologists when that couldn’t be Farther from the Truth. This lead to Their Dismissal of the Neanderthals’s Cave Paintings Chronicling Their Research as “Just more Cave Doodles”. Now a Consideration that One must take into Account is that in all Due Favor ironically the aforementioned Archeologists were a Tad Distracted. They were rather Preoccupied with Practicing Their Bullwhip Skills, and Not Being Crushed by Large Dislodged Boulders.”

                   

This by Anyone’s Standards is Quite Obviously Not even Close to being True and that Fact is Blatantly Obvious to All. Now Absurdity Doesn’t have to be Cartoonish, Over the Top Gonzo, In Your Face, or Manic in its Approach. Absurdity can be Subtle as Hell. The Best way I can Explain it is I Wholeheartedly Believe that You can Say Anything (I mean the Craziest Shit You can Possibly Think of to Say), and as Long as You can Say it with a Straight Face and Conviction You create a Reasonable Doubt. That’s to Say the Person will tell Themselves that You were so Obviously Joking because No Way could Anyone be Serious about such an Absurd Statement. That’s when the Reasonable Doubt Starts to set in, and They Start to Subtly Second Guess Themselves. The More They Doubt the More They can’t Write the Whole Conversation Off as a Joke or One’s Odd Sense of Humor.

         

A Real Life Example of this Type of Subtle Absurdity that Rails through the Halls of Reason happened to Me the Other Day. It was 10:20 pm and I had a Free moment and found Myself thinking of Weird, Yet Unoffensive Shit to Post on My Family’s Ongoing Text Chain, and Finally decided to go with an Absurd Meme. What Happened Next was a Humorously Confused Text Exchange between Myself, My Mom, and My Aunt. Now At First I assume My Aunt Knew I was Kidding Around, but once My Mom entered the Conversation My Aunt seemed to get Confused as to what is Actually going on. As You will See even though I kept the Whole thing Going I did Start Responding with Absurder Shit Each Time. I was thinking that at Some unseen Level of Absurdity They’d Understand I was just fucking around, and the Outcome was Not what I Expected.

Here is the Aforementioned  Text Exchange:

Me: 

My Aunt: Uh oh!

Me: Dang Squatters got in the Walls Again.

My Aunt: Oops!!

My Mother: Mice! But I am getting them with the Green Bait Balls!!

Me: Excellent what works on Wall Squatters living in One’s Walls? I called Terminex, but when it comes to Pests They don’t cover Wall Dwelling Squatters. I’m going to check Reddit for possible solutions.

  (8 Minutes Later)  

Me: Well Reddit is a Total Bust. All I found was Information Pertaining to One’s Walls being inhabited by Wayward Hobos.

My Mom: If you get rid of pests in the house, you  are likely you are likely to handle those in the walls, also at the same time. Also a good pest control company should be able to check your house over thoroughly and close any openings that might be allowing entrance to birds, mice, squirrels, or other varmints…

Me: That’s Good Advice the thing that Baffles me is I may Not be the Most Observant Person, I’d like to Think I could Spot an Opening the Size of an Devious Adult Squatter. I have a Sneaking suspicion the Specific Wall Squatters are in fact Tunneling in like Mole People. Does anyone know a Good Company that can check House Foundations since if the Conniving Squatters are in fact Tunneling in to Access the Walls the Foundation Integrity may be Compromised. Also on a similar Note I’m pretty sure My Home Insurance Doesn’t cover this sort of Thing.

                   

My Aunt: No, Les, I am sure that insurance will not cover it and you are correct, they will most definitely have an impact on the integrity of the foundation if not treated…We have that problem here in Atlanta…Let me see if I can find the thread from the area and see if I can tell you who they called and what they did.

My Mom: I use Terminex, Les. I have a contract with them. They treat all pests and insects, not just termites, but you might want to check if you call to make sure they cover exclusion of squirrels, mice, bats, etc. I have had good experience with the local one. In the meantime, Les, go to the Farm Center and get some of those green balls- Ramik baits. Put a couple in a bottle lid or something under the kitchen sink in a cabinet that stays shut so your pets don’t have access. If they disappear overnight that means mice are getting them- and they go out out of the house and died. I find them very effective.

My Aunt: Crocodile Dave seems to be the one that they love here, but it seems that most of the termite companies now treat wildlife intrusion also..and try what your mom suggested, too, because according to the thread, it can be expensive..Good luck!

                   

TEXTED THE FOLLOWING MORNING:

Me: To Whom It May Concern: Last Night I had a couple of Beers and was boded so I scrolled through My Pictures on my Phone. When I saw the Absurd Meme I thought it would be funny to post here. Then I decided it be far funnier if I claimed ACTUAL Homeless People were Squatting in the Walls, thus following the Theme of the Meme. Apparently Some became confused and under the impression and thought I was eloquently describing Mice. There are No Mice or Other Pests. We have been using Terminex for 4 years and still do.

My Aunt: Well, thank goodness. I just have real estate brain, so any mention of foundation issues and my antenna goes up..glad it’s not for real!!

My Mom: Yes, you did confuse us, LES! Good to get your reassurance!
