I Was a DumberChild
- No related posts
You probably caught Gretchen's dialogue with the AI IM agent (Smarterchild). Oomph-Girl did the same thing a while ago (just like I was audio blogging long before my friend Leo). I wanted to register a fake AIM handle and pretend to spit back semi-automated responses. Someone already registered dumberchild, though. So, that idea flew right out the window – along with my pride, thanks to Sam. When he and Marshall stayed an extra night in Des Moines after Gnomedex, my parents kept them entertained by showing them old home videos. Well, before he beats me to the punch, here are a couple of digitized clips. I'm going to have my mom send him even more tapes when she and Dad return home. I guess I was really into magic tricks and singing Weird Al songs back then. Nice mullet, retard.

LOL, I did that same cheap camera trick!! I would stand somewhere, and have my Dad press the record button. I thought it was so cool. I was about 6 then. Ever since then, I wanted to work in the film industry.
I listened to alot of Weird Al also. People thought I was so stupid. I had no idea why they didn't think it was funny too.

I was a big fan of Weird Al back when I was a… Wait a minute. I'm still a very big fan of Weird Al and people also still look at me funny when I pull out his full discography.

That's pretty cool! Used to do the same tricks. Only our camera had the delayed timer trick on it. It would stop and I would move somewhere else before it came back on, made it look like I was teleporting. Hey what are you using to do your videos? They have good picture and stream. I was looking at trying that to. Any tips?
