the original title was children of vin
well, i poked around a little bit, and while they *do* go through the trouble of actually streaming it, meaning only a smaller piece is ever stored locally (unlike youtube, where the file is downloaded locally and stored in your cache as a complete file), you can probably look for a good tutorial on using proxies to watch this stuff.
"look, if he does the commercial, it counts as work and he doesn't violate his parole"
$money says that comment came from an intern in whatever pr shop is trying to convince jann wenner that "leaking" images to perez is the new new journalism.
next double dog = upload footage of a cat farting.
well, now, if he's won an award from the guy in charge of all the governors, he can't be all bad at life.
2 weeks until snorg tees is selling an "i got dat" shirt with a line drawing of a digital audio tape.
yeah, but we started writing about robyn back in 2005. and stereogum has never overblogged cute solo acts ever...so basically i'd say you're right, it's direct orders from tommy mottola. the facts point in only one direction! http://stereogum.com/fastsearch?query=robyn&category=&order=date&lastn=25&offset=25&blogs=1

timing! charlie rose has perfect timing.
"...girl just didn't like me. ahhh heh heh heh heh. so, what's it take to get you in this baby for a test drive? you'd never even know it's pre-owned. that's certified. certified pre-owned."
best end to a trailer...ever?
i used to work with a guy who did this sort of thing hardcore- real metal weapons, real armor, concussions, contusions, broken bones, etc. the Paranoia larpers are my favorites.
i caught about 1/3 of Magicians on a plane and liked it a lot. Hadn't tracked down their other stuff, though. Thanks.
what's with these writers making jokes that take liberties with reality? UGH UGH GUGHGHG!
i like how they ended with a good shot of his crappy parking job. it is bad, right? i'm not the only one seeing his car a good foot over the curb?
my favorite part of the original is the "funny" musical number about the Romans' rape of the Sabine women. and how it rhymes "Sabine" with "sobbin'".
i kind of imagine "Ants!" sounds a lot like "Fame"
sorry about that! not sure why it's all tricky, but i'm going to get to work on it. you get the confirmation email thing going?
i saw a stand-up describe something like this last week, only he fleshed out the part where they meet really well: they both spot a body at once, and say the same corny Orbach one-liner (ie, a teacher's body = "School's out!"). the really skinny, young-looking BWE panelist? I forget his name now.
has "you can say that again" ever been said in a good movie?
would someone please cover the adverts' "Gary Gilmore's Eyes" but about Jerry Orbach's Eyes?
Is that supposed to imply that the advertising influences the editorial? If anyone's keeping score, it's easy to find counter-examples to that argument all over stereogum. please don't make accusations like that unless you actually know what you're talking about.
aw, broken image. sad.
yeah, wanted to replace that with a live comment preview, but dropped it for launch. will fix- thanks for the reminder!
ok, if anyone's still reading this thread, we did some work with our open-source video encoder (ffmpeg) to get a fair balance of quality and file size. videos should be about 1/3 as large from now on...there's still no equivalent of LAME's -aps.
...but the quality! no, it's a good point. we'll see what we can do to balance quality and file size better.
sorry the post was down all day! new system's still shaky, i guess.
dunphy, if you register, i'll see if i can automatically give your comments a score boost.

try holding down the shift key when you reload? it might take a second for the site to realize that you're not commenting with your old comments cookie. or that's something else to fix.
we're trying to find a way to do it without the petty
