A Hard Fork For Humanity

Welcome to Today’s Post featuring A HARD FORK FOR HUMANITY by Content Creator Known as Umami (aka Justin Tomchuk) Who is a Canadian Artist and Content Creator who makes Surrealist Animated Videos. We can say in All and Utter Honesty is this is by FAR the Trippiest Mindfucker  of Video by Umami that We have seen to Date. Not Only that it just so Happens to Also be One of the Trippiest Mindfucker Videos We have ever seen Period.

Now We really Can’t Begin to Describe this fucking Video worth a Damn, BUT luckily for Us the Description by Umami well Simple fucking Says it All. I know it We could be Accused of just “Phoning it In”, and to Those We say Watch this Motherfucker and THEN see if You still Think So. In Our Humble Opinion to get the Most Perspective it’s Beneficial to Smoke some Weed while Watching. So with that Said without Further Ado here is A HARD FORK FOR HUMANITY…….

     

Description by the Creator Umami:

Aboard the SpaceX Starship heading to Mars, a sentient packet of soup mix comes alive to school Elon Musk about its future inhabitants.

CLEAN FACES

Welcome to Today’s FYB Post featuring CLEAN FACES by the Content Creator known as Burden. Burden Claims Their Work as “For those who are no longer human. For those who can’t relate. Videos range from unruly despair to unrecognized rage. Deprived Visions.” Who or Whom Burden is remains to be seen, but Here’s a would be Rundown of this Obscure Channel. Burden is a Small Channel that has a Collection of Strange/Unexplained/Mysterious Videos that could Possibly be an ARG, an Art Project, Gorilla Advertising, or Just the Crazy fucking shit Spewing from Someone Who forgot to take Their fucking Medication.

OUR TAKE:

Honestly Our Best Guess is it’s some Seriously Dark Social Commentary on Society and the So Called Human Experience. The Stranger Scenes that may be Unsettling to Some of a Mass of Writhing Maggots, Rotting Animal Carcass, Horde of Hornets, and What Appears to be a fucking Bizzarro Autopsy seem to Symbolize Society/Humanity as a Large Unthinking All Consuming Mass of Parasitic Creatures that Lack Personality and Individuality. Also the Use of Clips from a Popular American TV Show Only Fuel the Social Commentary Hypothesis as Morning TV Shows are Know for being Mindless Fluff Masquerading as Entertainment. Some Key Points the Show Hosts Touch on that Promote the Social Commentary Hypothesis  are the Following:

  • “…Heal the Wounds in the Country Not Exacerbate Them.”
  • The Phrase “Tumultuous Times”
  • “Lost Sight of Ourselves…”

Yet in the End it’s Up to You to Decide for Yourself What You Believe CLEAN FACES is and is About or What the fuck it is Meant to Be.

Description By Creator Burden:

Wake up and smile. To be more present and in the moment.

Dinner For Few

Welcome to Today’s FYB Post the Animated Short Film DINNER FOR FEW by Award Winning Director and Animator Nassos Vakalis which an Allegorical Depiction of Society. I in Particular find DINNER FOR FEW to be Interesting and Entertaining is the Social Commentary that Reminds Me of Two of My Favorite fucking Books of All fucking Time. Those Two Books Being Animal Farm by George Orwell which is a Scathing Criticism on the Flaws and Failure of Communism. The Other is the Graphic Novel MAUS by Art Spiegelman which Depicts the Author’s Interviewing His Father about His Experiences as a Holocaust Survivor. Both Books and DINNER FOR FEW rely Heavily on Symbolism which I personally enjoy the fuck Out of (Especially Using Specific Animals to Embody Different Kinds of People. Example The Rich and Powerful) those that do per Animal Farm are Depicted in all 3 Works as PIGS.

The Best Part of Symbolism and DINNER FOR FEW is it actually makes You fucking think in the fucking age of Smart Phone Zombies and Laptop Ghouls. Swear to fucking God all the shit They put Out and Dare to call Entertainment is MINDLESS FUCKING DRIVIL. The Point and Click/Touch/Swipe Technology is causing Humanity to Actually De-fucking-evolve into Retarded, Mindless, Cavemen. Think I’m being over fucking Dramatic well then Ponder the fuck Out of This. Emojis are and have Always Been the Digital Equivalent of fucking Cave Paintings (No Hieroglyphs is too Advanced at this Point to be fucking Comparable).

Our View: DINNER FOR FEW does have One Unique Aspect that Sets it Apart from the Two Aforementioned Books, and that is it Depicts the Cycle of Life in Society as Opposed to just Commenting on the Social Situation/Issue/Problem at Hand. DINNER FOR FEW reminds Me of Two Sayings that for Me go Hand in Fucking Hand and They are the Following:

  1. “The Rich get Richer and the Poor get Poorer.” This Serving as the Societal Circle of Life on the Macro Level.
  2. “Don’t Piss on My Leg and Tell Me it’s Raining.” The Day to Day Injustices in Society and Those Affected by Them on the Micro Level.

The Symbolism as We see it:

  • Pigs: Well Obviously as I mentioned before the Pigs are Symbolic of the Wealthy, Privileged, Greedy, Gluttonous, Self Serving Elitist Assholes Who Only give shit about Themselves.
  • The Chef: Stands for the System that Enables the Pigs without Question its His Only function is to Blindly Serve the Pigs.
  • The Cats: Represent Average Citizens/Every Day People aka Anyone Who isn’t a fucking Pig.
  • White Lion: Is Indicative of Revolution as the Cats Unite against the Common Enemy the Pigs and Revolt Against the Tyrant Swine. Not Only that But the Feline Uprising enables the Cats to Not Only Stand Up Against the Pigs but to Also Exact Revenge in the Form of a Brutal Blood Soaked and Murderous Massacre.
  • The Lion Sleeping: is Symbolic of Peace and in this Case the Peace is that Peace has been Restored to the Land so to Speak.
  • Chef Killing the Lion and Kittens: Represents the Cycle of a Sick Society Continues it’s Never Ending Circle where Unavoidably things will Always Remain the Same.

Description By Creator Nassos Vakalis:

During dinner, “the system” feeds the few who consume all the resources while the rest survive on scraps. Inevitably, the struggle for what remains leads to catastrophic change. The offspring of this transition turns out not to be a sign of hope, but the spitting image of the parents.

Backrooms – Isolation

Welcome to Today’s FYB Post featuring BACKROOMS – ISOLATION  The Latest Installment from the Psychological Horror Web Series by Kane Pixels. The Backrooms  is a Creepypasta that originated from a Thread on the /X/ Board of 4Chan on May 12, 2019, where an Anonymous User asked Others to “Post Disquieting Images that just Feel ‘Off’.” There the First Photo Depicting the Backrooms was Uploaded, Presenting a Slightly Titled Image of a Sickly Yellow-Colored Hallway. Another Anonymous User Commented on the Photo with the First Story about the Backrooms, Claiming that One enters the Backrooms when They “No Clip Out of Reality in the Wrong Areas.”, which is a Video Game- Related Term Originating from the Popular Video Game DOOM for when a Player Passes Through a Physical Boundary that would Otherwise Block Their Way.

The Comment inspired an Expanded Version of the Creepypasta as well as YouTube Videos on the Topic (and of Course a Video Game). The Backrooms Creepypasta was made into a Short Horror Film and a Horror Series by 16 Year Old American Director, Visual Effects Artist, and Youtuber Kane Pixels. The ongoing Online Horror Series’s First Installment was Uploaded to Youtube on January 7th, 2022 and Then the Rest of the Series was Posted over the Course of the Last Few Months (All Previous Installments are Posted Here for Your Connivence).

As it Turns Out the A-Sync Research Channels which we thought was a Secondary Channels created by Kane Pixels to Advance Plot Line and We apparently were Wrong (at least as Far as Face Value is Concerned). A Comment by whoever the fuck is Responsible for the A-Sync Channel stated that the Channel isn’t Run by Kane Pixels, but instead it is Inspired by Him. So what the fuck is this all about then? Good fucking Question and Here is Our View on it. This A-Sync Person/People are NOT Random or Fans involved in some Fan Fiction Bullshit. This Person/People are OBVIOUSLY Collaborators working Side by Side with Kane Pixels since the Video Theme, Quality, and Feel of Each others Videos Coincide with One Another. The Other thing worth Noting is the Series was Originally Titled “THE BACKROOMS” and Now has been Simplified to Just “BACKROOMS” have No Idea Why but like We said We felt it was Worth Noting.

The Channel’s Self Description is as Follows:
“The A-Sync Research Development Team (ARDT) is an organization that is dedicated to bringing the world more affordable living space and solve overpopulation around the globe. The ARDT was formed in September 1983.”

Now the Original Plan by Kane Pixels for Series seems to have Changed as Originally Kane Announced a New Installment of BACKROOMS would be Posted Every 2 Weeks which was an Ambitious Goal We must Admit. As these things Go Kane must have Realized that Pumping Out Content Every 2 Weeks might Not be such a Good Strategy since it could damn well compromise the Integrity, Content, Production Value, and Storyline if Rushed. Now with the Addition of the Secondary BACKROOMS Channel A-Sync (Named after the Corporation working on the BACKROOMS )  the Posting Schedule has Increased Once again BUT it’s becoming a Bit fucking Chaotic.  Keeping Tabs on the Series is getting Trickier as Posting on Both Channels seems to be somewhat Erratic.

This Unique Series does Something Rare Especially Now a Days which is it Simply fucking gets Better with Each Episode. The Series is also Incredible at Building the Tension of Each Installment until the fucking Anxiety of the Characters Bleeds through the fucking Screen. The Backrooms is Definitive fucking Proof You don’t Need a Shit Ton of Cash, Hollywood, Big Movie, An Orgy of CGI, Big Production Companies, Big Time Studios, Famous Actors, Film School/Degree, Jump Scares, or Even Gore to Mindfuck and Creep the Shit out the Audience. The Series seems to Follow the Eerie Asian Horror School of Thought in You don’t Need Buckets of Blood, Gruesome Gore, or Violently Brutal Killings/Murders/Deaths (which is Fine by Us just to be Clear) to Utterly Terrify Someone. Instead of Relying on Visceral Special Effects to Shock and Horrify the Audience Eerie Horror Crawls into Your Brain and takes up Residence in the Confines of the Viewer’s Mind Nesting, Festering, and Simmering for Days to Weeks after Viewing leaving the Audience with a Lingering Dread as They can’t seem to get Said Movie out of Their Mind regardless of How Hard They Try. Eerie Horror well Haunts You (Absolutely NO fucking Pun Intended) They stick with You Unrelentingly refusing to let You Simply Forget what You’ve Seen.

Our 2 Cents:

The Plot/Storyline is Really bringing to take Off at a Good Clip as We learn More about the Backrooms, Their Creators, and What it all Means. This Installment starts with the Camera Man named Chris talking with a Executive Type Man about returning into the Backrooms to Find the Other Lost Team Members (Kevin and Phil and possible Rob as Well)  by having Chris Retrace His Steps Through the Backrooms. As the New Team Search the Backrooms They hear a Terrifying Unknown Scream/Howl and Realize They aren’t Alone in the Backrooms. Towards the End Chris’s Team Members start to Vanish into think fucking Air and Chris Panics like a Motherfucker. In the End Chris Stumbles Across a Large Empty White Room that Leads to Another Maze of Equally White and Empty Rooms. Then We hear the Primal Screaming/Screeching Vocalizations….

MISS SHAYE SAINT JOHN – TRIGGER 28 MY MOUSY

Welcome to Today’s FYB Post featuring MISS SHAYE SAINT JOHN – TRIGGER 28 MY MOUSY Saint John is a Fictional Character and Art Project Who Appears in a Series of Surrealist, Creepy Short Films, and is Brain Child of Creator Eric Fournier. In the 90’s, Fournier was a Member of the Punk Bands The Blood Farmers and Skelegore when He began working on the First Miss Shaye St. John Video. In 2003, the Character started a Blog at LiveJournal, and a YouTube Channel Named Elastic Spastic Plastic Fantastic was created in August 2006. The YouTube Channel Uploaded all 56 of the Saint John Videos from 2006-2007, But the Official Channel was Discontinued and Cancelled in December of 2007. Unfortunately the Creator of the Shaye Saint James Character Eric Fournier Died sometime back in 2010.

Relevant Note Pertaining to Shaye Saint John:

It had been quite a long fucking Time since We had Checked in with Shaye Saint John’s Youtube Channel and when We did Obviously Recently We Noticed Some Strange Shit. What We noticed was 90% of the Videos on the Channel have been Taken Down. As of Now all but 10 Videos (all from 6 years ago) remain Posted on the channel. We found this Rather Odd since one of the First things to Consider is the Content Creator Removed them, But in this Case the Content Creator is Died in 2010 so that’s Not It. So We decided We had to find Out more Information about What the fuck was Going on Since We are Huge fucking Shaye Saint John Fans.

We came Across Another Big Fan who was Able to Shed some Light on the Subject as it were. Apparently Youtube is doing Some fucking Weird ass Thing where instead of just Straight Up Deleting it They have Opted to Slowly Dismantle it Until in the End there is No Content Left on the Channel (at which Point We assume Youtube will Delete it at Last. This Strategy as Far as We are Concerned makes No Sense What so fucking Ever because What the fuck Does Youtube think the Fans/Viewers Simply Won’t Notice the Slow but Steady Deletion of Content/Videos?! And what the fuck is the Point if All Youtube is Going to do Ultimately is Shut the Channel the fuck Down Anyways so Why Not just Pull the fucking Trigger and be Done with it?!

Then Again as Youtube as Evolved Over the Many Years it has Only become More and More Difficult for Content Creators, but it has become Equally Frustrating for the Users of the Platform. There is No fucking Rhyme or Reason anymore since YouTube Doesn’t even Bothering Bullshitting Users with Lame fucking Excuses. At this fucking Rate Youtube is going to fucking Implode in the Future Under the Weight of its Own Growing Nonsensical Fuckery.

                

Who is Miss Shaye St. John? :

The Character Shaye St. John is Described as a “Model”, and is Shown in Videos Wearing a Plastic Mask, a Series of Wigs and Dresses, and Manipulating a Pair of Wooden Hands Attached to Sticks, and the Character’s Legs are in Fact Mannequin Legs as Well. Tragically Saint John was Hit By a Train which Resulted in the Loss of Her Arms and Legs (as Well as Horribly Disfiguring Her Face). Instead of Using the Traditional Prosthetics, She Added Mannequin Parts to Her Face and Added the Wooden Hands so No One could See Her Severely Damaged and Deformed Hands. Saint John Wears a Series of Different Masks throughout Her Videos, Supposedly because She Doesn’t want the World to See What She Actually looks Like.  Creator Eric Fournier Explained “It’s Really Bad, that’s Why She wears the Mask.”

Description (Written by Share Saint James Herself):

OMG! ME AND A LITTLE MOUSY WERE HAVING A BLAST! WE PUT SOME MUSIC AND STARTED A REAL PARTY. KIKI WAS VERY SCARED BECAUSE SHE THINKS MICE ARE DEMONIC! C’MON! I HAVE EVEN DATED SOME. HELLO AGAIN! I HAD A LITTLE ACCIDENT :´(. I NEED DR. LOOPIS AND MEDICINE GIRL.

Idiot’s Meditation

Burden Claims Their Work as “For those who are no longer human. For those who can’t relate. Videos range from unruly despair to unrecognized rage. Deprived Visions.” Who or Whom Burden is remains to be seen, but Here’s a would be Rundown of this Obscure Channel. Burden is a Small Channel that has a Collection of Strange/Unexplained/Mysterious Videos that could Possibly be an ARG, an Art Project, Gorilla Advertising, or Just the Crazy fucking shit Spewing from Someone Who forgot to take Their fucking Medication.

Your Ride In The Foggy Tunnel Of Time has a Total of 1,673 Views
The Channel has just Over a 100 Videos in All.

                        

Our Take on the Video:

  • The Video Starts with Fuzzy and Wavy Footage (Just like when They do a POV Scene of an Intoxicated Character) on a Subway Train. The Soundtrack at this Part of the Video is Seriously Shitty wannabe EMD that is the fucking Embodiment of the Term “Audio Rape. With that Said We suggest Playing the Beginning at a Lower Volume to Avoid Actually Shitting Out Your Own Eardrums.
  • There is Some Guy Seated on the Far Left in a Black Hoodie and a Pea Green Military Style Jacket with His Back to the Camera. This Guy could be Drunk, High, Insane, has Real World Anger/Rage Issues, or a Combination of these Possible Scenarios. Anyway this Deranged Fuck Starts Yelling Incoherent Shit like a Homeless Person Preaching on a Random Street Corner about Sitting Down Properly. This Basket Case starts Getting Louder and Louder while Babbling about Hot Sauce just Before Attacking the Person in Front of Him.

  • Following the Subway Lunatic is Footage of an 18 Wheeler Trailer getting fucked up by a Speeding Train, and Shit getting fucking Obliterated by Other Shit is Always a fucking Crowd Pleaser So there’s That.
  • The Video Switches Up Again this Time to Blurry Night Scene as if it was Filmed on some Old as Cell Phone with Audio of a Guy talking in French (Sounds like French to Us anyway). The French Guy is Reciting the Story about His Best Friend, Technology, and Organ Transplants. For Something that Serves as Random Insanity in One of These Fringe Videos it’s Really Kind of Cool.
  • Then the Next Switch Up Occurs as the Video Transitions into a Slightly Distorted POV Shot of Someone Speeding through a Tunnel on a Motorcycle. The Soundtrack at this Point is Frantically Manic and Actually works well with the Visual which is a Rarity in the Fringe Video Genre.
  • The Last Switch Up is to the Some Dated ass Footage We guess Shot in the 1970s Judging by the way the Man in it is Dressed. This Man Waxes Poetically like a New Wave fucking Hippy Self Help Guru in What We believe to be Italian.

                    

In Summation:

Idiot’s Meditation is a Pleasant Surprise when Navigating the Fringe Video Genre in its Production Value is Quite Good all things Considered. There also Seems to be Coherent Themes About Human Relationships, Interactions, and Personality Types which is Pretty Decent. The Best Part in Our fucking Opinion is it Doesn’t Suffer from Extraneously Chaotic Visual/Audio Overkill that Turns any Video into What having a fucking Aneurysm must look like. The Best Comparison would be to Equate Idiot’s Meditation to the Goregrind Band S.C.A.T both are from Niche Genres But are Also Really Well Done None the fucking Less.
