      Such a classic. So many awesome Flash animations from that era of the web, back when Newgrounds was still going strong. A few more of my favs, for nostalgia's sake... The Ultimate Showdown of Ultimate Destiny, Animator vs. Animation, Xiao Xiao - Stick Fight Animation (Episode 1-4), all of Homestar Runner + Strong Bad, all TheWeebl's stuff like Amazing Horse, Badgers, Narwhals, Crabs, etc., and all of ceriak's stuff like Baaa, cows & cows & cows, Welcome to Kitty City, etc.

        I remember being introduced to StickDeath by a friend in primary school, which was probably not great for my mental and emotional development. Newgrounds was definitely a step up in terms of the general wholesomeness of its content.

    Having watched the original video, I was underwhelmed unfortunately. I'm not familiar with the creator's work but I found his style less "dry ironic" and more monotone/uninteresting. I also just felt like it was the Wikipedia page for predictions of the end times + a bit of sarcasm and not much else to say. Yeah they're fake predictions.

    That could be my familiarity with the topic or just a clash of vibes with the presenter.
