Title: ROTFL 'Star wars kid'
Post by: Kazan on June 26, 2004, 06:07:35 pm
Here is the 'Star Wars Kid', He's trying to do a Darth Maul impersonation.  Personally I title it "How not to do staffwork"

So i decided, we need someone who knows how to show him how it's done: So i did a little demo

(PS: on mine the camera sucks, the curve you see in the staff sometimes is lense distortion)

So did anything ever come of the supposed court cases?

geez, Kazan. I suppose you haven't seen all your base either, then?

the kid's family sued the guy who put it on the internet.

ROTFL!

In particular, they sued him because that kid faced serious insults and pressure from anybody who knew him or knew him not...not that funny, if you know the story that evolved.

meh, all I get is green crap whenever I try to load your video, even though I have XVID installed. Oh well.

At least the kid will be able to say he was known internationally when/if he has children :p

dragonclaw: upgrade, and make sure your windows fourCC configuration is correct
Title: ROTFL 'Star wars kid'
Post by: DragonClaw on June 26, 2004, 06:57:49 pm
Well, considering I installed 1.01 just to see your video, I'm still failing to see why it's not working.
Title: ROTFL 'Star wars kid'
Post by: Kazan on June 26, 2004, 07:05:21 pm
that's probably because your FourCC configuration is incorrect

you need to go into old style mplayer and set your ffdshow config correctly [the new mplayer neglects to allow you to configure this[

ROFL!!!

I wasn't THAT bad when I started flagwork!

Ah.... now Kaz knows how to do it ;) So many people think it's fingers, but it's in the wrists ;)

next up, Badgerbadger. After that, a short break and then we're on to The End of the Wolrd. Don't worry, you'll be caught up in time Kaz, and they we can begin your reintegration into normal Internet society.

Its still funny though, even now.

I dunno. That'd be pretty cool if there were.

Erm, did that kid put that video of himself up on the internet?  Everyone should know that putting something up on the web is equivalent to shouting it out to crowd in broad daylight.

If it's something that'll attract attention (good or bad) it'll spread.

Hardly worth suing over though.

IIRC the story goes that he recorded himself using the schools video camera and when some of his classmates got hold of the camera and saw the video they put it up on the net.

This is why I have no sympathy with the guy, he left the tape with him doing that in the camera and they found it, watched it and uploaded it.

Personally anyone that dumb deserves it.

Damn he's fugly!

Try going through your mp3 collection and seeing which song plays along best with it.  Slipknot are quite good, though maybe some circus music would be funnier.
