Youtube channel from Tales of Mere ExistenceDid you guys ever watch this? Its pretty cool, short (around 3 mins) animations, where this guy talks about life and illustrates it with some funny drawings. He has a kind of gloomy tone but I think is very nice, talks about things that often people think about and can relate. Here's a couple ones from his channel: This years resolution My darling? The loner Body

I haven't seen this. Just watched a couple and your description is dead-on. Gloomy, but funny. [Edit] Just finished watching all of the ones you posted. Each one had me laugh pretty hard at least once. "Science without religion is lame. Religion without science is blind" - Albert Einstein
"The Mighty One appears, the horizon shines. Atum appears on the smell of his censing, the Sunshine- god has risen in the sky, the Mansion of the pyramidion is in joy and all its inmates are assembled, a voice calls out within the shrine, shouting reverberates around the Netherworld." - Egyptian Book of the Dead

I watched the first one, “This Year’s Resolutions”, and found it to be insightful and funny. (And I can relate to it a bit more than I’d like to admit.) Very nice. gibran2 is a fictional character. Any resemblance to anyone living or dead is purely coincidental.

After watching all the ones that endlessness posted, I've been devouring them like hotcakes on youtube. There's really a lot more than I thought. "Science without religion is lame. Religion without science is blind" - Albert Einstein

hehehe i like those I was in doubt about which quote to put in my signature. guess i will put it here then. "Good character is not formed in a week or a month. It is created little by little, day by day. Protracted and patient effort is needed to develop good character." -Heraclitus“The most important thing in illness is never to lose heart.” -Nikolai Lenin
I know that you believe you understand what you think I said, but I'm not sure you realize that what you heard is not what I meant.

Good stuff endlessness!  I think the word for this character is 'lugubrious'. I am paranoid of my brain. It thinks all the time, even when I'm asleep. My thoughts assail me. Murderous lechers they are. Thought is the assassin of thought. Like a man stabbing himself with one hand while the other hand tries to stop the blade. Like an explosion that destroys the detonator. I am paranoid of my brain. It makes me unsettled and ill at ease. Makes me chase my tail, freezes my eyes and shuts me down. Watches me. Eats my head. It destroys me.

Just saw "What Would Penis Do". Was dying laughing throughout. I think this is by far one of the funnier ones I've seen. Viewer discretion is advised  "Science without religion is lame. Religion without science is blind" - Albert Einstein
