“Everyone is a genius at least once a year, a real genius has his original ideas closer together.” – Georg Lichtenberg 1742-1799

Like God’s trees in a forest or blades of grass in a lawn, or the transition between the two.

Marina, thank you for sharing Michaelaranda’s work.

I had not come across his videos that I recall. I have watched several of the vlogbrothers videos. I like all of these videos and the third video DFTBA has a great catchy tune and video work.

The guy Michael only lives about 15 miles from me.

Marina,
…”.I want to do a video with him.?”

DFTBA They “Define Friend “Thier Buttholes Accessible”
Looks like a [Gopher] it.

Casey can probably set it up for you.

New word [Accesspool]

DFTBA LOL

Hey Billy B.Wow, it did not take long for the canucks to put away the blues. Did you check out the canes getting the last second goal? Man, that was something. Martin Brodeur had after game rage! And don’t tell me the sharks are going to get eliminated in the first round again!? Especially to the 8th seeded ducks?

Are you wearing an official “hawks” jersey… cool. Yeah, it was special teams, made the difference for Vancouver. Blues had not power play, but still, they’re a good young team.
Still don’t know who we get in the second round yet tho, but rest is nothing but good. Calgary is tuff eh. SJ has good team & no Playoff luv, too bad, I don’t like ducks LOL

That is correct! It’s customized. I put a letter C on my left and my other nickname E-Rock. My number is again 78. The rest is on the back.

 
DFTBA is an acronym for
Don’t Forget to be Awesome.

DFTBA comes from John’s October 2nd Brotherhood 2.0 vlog. While driving back to Indianappolis, John discusses a nerdfighter outlet mall with a Put stuff on your head, a peeps outlet, and a pineapple nerdfighting pants outlet. At the end of the vlog in a P.P.P.S., John reminds Hank to, like it on his friend Katie’s arm, DFTBA.

These are the visually-clearest videos I have ever seen! One can see blades of grass!

I like the first video best, considering it as a demonstration of a video technique.

In the beginning of the second video, I thought he would reveal that he was shooting a miniature sand-box, but it turned out he was shooting the real thing. Anyway, in the second video, the only content I liked somewhat was the “search for the alligaTOR” part. I guess this was a spoof of “nature/wild-life TV shows”?

The DFTBAs I liked from the video were Don’t Forget That Brains Attract and Don’t Forget To Be Awesome. I would have said: Don’t Forget To Be Aware — which is similar to something I wrote years ago: Always be in focus, including while happy.

I am now going to be bothered until I have figured out why his videos are so clear (‘why’ meaning how he achieves such visual-clarity)!

–Hs4Mm

PS: By the way, I woke up TPA. :smile:

The first video is an example: the jupers do exist!!! This boy is a hyper-traveller!:P

nice

The sneeze was hilarious and DFTBA was very clever but No Swimming didn’t really float my boat. Maybe it was allegatorical and I didn’t get the point.

weird.

i think anyone can figure out how the sneezing was done.

:grin: impressed …[barbed wired]… [gay] and [ :lol: trump]

I liked the first. Quick and funny.

That’s what Mrs. Somebody said. :roll:

Heres a post. I dont know where else to put it :roll: :wink:

Just got done checking the old count down clock, and its OFFICIALLY 1291 days till next presidential elections. Disregard any previous statements made by yours truly. Evidently, and I know you ain’t gonna believe this; but I wrote that without knowing the proper date. Huummm… thats kinda like talkin before thinkin’, right? Gets me to thinking about Nancy Pelosi. In fact, she is such an artful and faithful follower of this that I think there should be a word, we’ll call it “pelosied”; which means, I don’t know: ‘engaging ones mouth to speak while ones brain has not even arrived at the conversation’.
LATEST EXAMPLES: 1) Pelosi stated yesterday that she had no knowledge of EITs taking place at any time. A Washington Examiner article (11/07) placed her and several other top democrats at “at least 30″ meetings where these techniques were discussed and ratified. These same democratic leaders not only whole-heartedly supported EITs, they were worried WE WEREN’T DOING ENOUGH! I will sit here a minute and let you read that again. So, you could say when she spoke of having NO knowledge of ANY EITs; she “pelosied”.
2) Pelosi and top dems pushed BHO into releasing classified CIA documents pertaining to torture and are now pushing strongly for these attorneys to be tried for torture crimes. Evidently she doesn’t realize that, because of (1); she is what is known as an accomplice and SHOULD be tried also. This is another case where she “pelosied”.
Now I know what your asking.” But Bee, why would she blatantly, ugh, ‘misspeak’ about her knowledge of these documents knowing the truth is going to come out?” or “Hey Bee, if she pushes for these trials, she herself could face prosecution. Does she really hate Bush that much, or is she just stupid?” Yes, I believe she hates Bush more than she would or could ever admit. Lets face it, shes from ‘frisco. Where do you go if you hate America? Exactly. No, I don’t believe she is stupid. I think she has had one to many of those Joan Rivers eye jobs and her skin is so tight that it is blocking the blood from reaching the part of the brain that allows rational, coherent thought. So, in summing up; she ‘pelosied’ so its looking more and more like we’re going to get ‘Munsoned’.http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2t2GgN_RC7M
Is that going to work?

A more appropriate acronym would be DGCSLINF.
Depressed Gay College Students Living In North Flori-duh.
Florida is quickly becoming a Mecca for all that is “gay”,
as these videos demonstrate. I find it sad Marina is attracted to this – just sad…
Of all the places you could have been shown, they chose a pig farm, and they present it to you as a children’s zoo?
My younger sister went to school in Gainesville, and that appears to be where this was shot. It totally fucked her up.
Before she went, she was happy, spirited – content.
She came back all disjointed – just like these videos.
Some of you will be happy to know, she thinks Obama is the Messiah, and voted for him. We haven’t spoken to each other for over ten years, but I try to keep contact.
Anyone who tells you Obama, and his [ilk] are “great uniters” is absolutely full of shit. I agree with Bob – the sneeze was humorous, perhaps the only creative thing here. I agree with Capt Jack – nice.
Marina – check your inbox for friend invites (you’re falling behind there, too and I’m getting inquiries). Either keep up or hire staff to do it for you, girl!
I’m gonna go pass out, now. So much … gayness …
sapping my enthusiasm :neutral:

You should be warned that if you keep being outspoken like this, you’re going to be hated for your belief that honor and traditional American values are worth standing up for. You’ll be counted as one of those rightwing extremist threats mentioned in the HSA memo!
If you stand in the way of nationalist-socialism, you will be crushed sure as a Jew in WWII era Nazi Germany.
Did you see where the “brown shirts” are being revived as a new government volunteer program?
Once formed, it won’t be too long before they’ll want to call themselves the SS, to emulate the group they idolize. Who’s to say it can’t happen here?

:grin: Quote
“Success usually comes to those who are too busy to be looking for it” – Henry David Thoreau 1817-1862….how ya doing?

Can I try that last sentance again.
So, in summing up; she ‘pelosied’ so its looking more and more like we’re going to get Munsoned’

Is Capman911 OK?….

I can’t believe it :!: It actually worked :mrgreen: Now about that avatar… :oops:

this kid could teach u a few things too. :lol:
http://www.youtube.com/results?search_type=&search_query=fred&aq=f

just finished watching some of his other videos. damn, that kid is creative. he’s got a great sense of humor. this is an example of why youtube is cool. i’d like to see a collaboration, it’d be interesting to see what the talents of marina and michael aranda would produce.

congratulations beevee14! you’ll be an hfw pro in no time.

Darn, I got socked and HD rules….[dastard]…[darnel--lenrad]….I love crickets :roll:

Thanx. ’bout time :roll:

the avatar thing is rather easy, try it. ask if you have any questions.

Glad you agree with me on him! I’m working on an idea as we speak :-)

God give you Providence and extinctionating circumstances and Darwin awards for those so deserving……how ya doing?

Yuck! I got some spray in my eye :smile:

How…maybe do a follow-up on Bar & Pub with some of your bar jokes

…joke us off Marina, too Hot for Words to handel?

. :lol: rise an shine them shoes :smile:

Marina, my guess regarding why his videos have so much visual-clarity is that most of the boundaries between objects (the “edges”) in his videos are enhanced. It could be that his capture software does edge enhancing, or that his compression scheme preserves edges, or that most other people’s capture software blurs/softens edges, or that most other people’s compression software has the side effect of blurring edges. I would guess that your software has an edge enhancing option — would be worthwhile to try that, if you haven’t already.

–HsrMm

I like the technical aspects of the sneeze-switch, and somewhat like the “alligaTOR” spoof of nature/wild-life TV shows; and I like the visual clarity in his videos (achieved perhaps by preserving or enhancing edges).

(Supposedly he lives in S. CA and only visited Florida.)

Would you please educate me on the signs of gayness that you see? Thanks.

Dont mind me, seeing if my new avatar is up!guessnot

Go BUCKEYES

dude, you may have to wait a bit for the image to kick in. i expect it is osu oriented? osu is a great school, but i’m biased. i’m an alumni. O – H!…

haha funny

I-O!! You a fellow buckeye? :shock: I didnt go to the school, just live there :razz:

:idea: Heyyyy… Michaelaranda!… That sure was a shot out of the blue Marina! I’m figuring a collaboration such as that could result in some ahmazing results. Speaking of fresh talent, I’ve discovered just that. A young YouTube film maker, fresh out of Compton, nah, he’s from Portland Oregon (of all places!) does commercial work, experimental projects, etc. he’s even worked with legendary director Turd Ferguson! His YouTube name?

EXABSURDUM :!:

here’s a sample of his work :arrow:

Take my advice, I’m not using it… :roll:

:cool: thanks elahie:…did you ever get your new lap-top? :smile:

Marina,

As a percussionist I thought the finger-snapping thing was neat. I also liked the sneeze. The rest, for me, was more of the same YT fodder – attempt at being profound and using electronic enhancement to cover/embellish moderate musical ability. However, you can’t ignore the videographic and computer skills.
I totally agree that some collaboration could do a world of good for you as you strive to reach a young demographic and just expand your viewing audience overall, whether I’m into it or not.
Heck, if you’re in it it’ll be great!

Always.

I was just reminded that Mother’s Day is coming!
(Mom’s funny like that…)
Since Gorby’s “Mama” is Marina, are there any plans for a lesson about the origin of the word [Mother]?
It has so many valued and colorful uses…
Mother Night…
Mother Earth…
Mother Nature…
Mother Fu$@… (y’know where that’s goin’) :shock:
Every language has a word for Mom, Mutti, Mumsy…
How did we arrive at Mother? :roll:

It’s kind of like recognizing when a person is an alcoholic.
They may not appear impaired, or drunk, but there are “tells” which stand out when you’ve seen enough examples.
Another way to educate yourself to identify “tells” is to watch Judge Judy. She can always sense when she’s being lied to.
Not all that is “gay” is homosexual. Sometimes, it’s just … stupid!

Thanks; the last two sentences help clarify the context for your remark. (I don’t know enough to make such judgment calls.)

Captain Jack, are you there? I need some help with a Twitter issue. In a nutshell, I attempted to create an account months ago when Marina began using it. Ever since, when I try to log on, it says user name and password already taken. The VERY FIRST TIME I logged on after creating the account I was successful. That was the one and only time.
I thought I would try to simply delete this and start fresh, but everything wants my USER NAME AND PASSWORD…you see where I’m going with this.
Was hoping that with your newfound interest in and usage of Twitter you would be The Man who could lend a tired old redneck a hand.

Appreciate any assistance.

I’m guessing you’re not a WhattheBuck fan then? :razz:

Please tread carefully when you talk about the University of Florida, my friend. Some of us are cum laude graduates and quite well adjusted. And Heaven help you if you mess with Tim Tebow!

How about the origin of Mother’s Day itself? Who started it? And who are some cool Mom’s to watch on YouTube? :wink:

I dont know about mother but I always thought mom, momma, etc. came from the fact that the M-M-M sound is the easiest and therefore the first sound we make. The P-P-P sound is kinda easy, too. Pop,poppa…? Just a theory I came up with. :?:

Not all that is “gay” is homosexual. Sometimes, it’s just … stupid!

:mrgreen: So Nancy Pelosi is … gay!? :twisted: :mrgreen:

I have no qualms when it comes to higher education.
In fact – I recommend it for everyone!
My sister made bad choices, in Gainesville…
I went to school in Cincinnati and Dayton :mrgreen:

“Stupid is as stupid does” – Forrest Gump

interesting theory explaining the development of language. language emerged from mother-infant communication during the evolution australopithecus to homo. i don’t think this is the strongest theory for language development. however i do think that mother-infant communication was a benefit of emerging language that further contributed to the success of the species and the continuation of the language traits. i think this is a fascinating theory as i have watched the interaction of mothers and children and the motivation for encouraging vocalization seems to be so very fundamental. the emotional rewards received by both i think is an indicator of a very important process. although this observation is based upon western culture alone and may not be practiced in other cultures. hmm… going to check that out. anyway moms yeah, important.

Really, I heard just the opposite — that children say the “da” sound first. (Father’s get all excited about this.) However, my daughter’s first word was “up.” As in — pick me up! :smile:

How, I say and peace; coollikeyourmom—I think you will like Marina…HotForWords…take**!~!**1:38..mumbling**Mummy and Mommy.. are they related?..be cool…

Interesting. Western culture does tend to be different. Please keep us posted! And yes, moms are WAY important. :wink: Goodnight all! :smile:

Where are they projecting him in the draft? I haven’t kept up at all

mother child communication is culturally relative.

You don’t need your tongue to make a P or M so I thought it would be simpler. Not a very scientific theory, is it? :oops:

I wonder how the expression To keep Mum or Mum’s the word came to be. What has keeping secrets to do with Mum?

no its not a scientific theory yet, but it is a great hypothesis. children aren’t going to start out making really complex sounds, their motor skills are still developing. you are using some very good reasoning.

doesn’t actually refer to “mum” as in “mother” but “mum” as in “mmmmmm” keeping ones mouth shut.

The mama sound that kids make is from sucking on their mother’s breast actually, which is where momma comes from.

@ buzzword

Thank you for your kind words but, once again I am seemingly incorrect :sad:

MaMa :?: Ольга Арефьева и Ковчег 13 февраля 2009 в клубе Plan B :oops:
…is she saying MaMa :?: :???: song: Does your mother know?
performed by ABBA …good night

WORD REQUEST: [ balsamic moon ] [ balsamic vinegar ]

Mother Superior…

:oops:

That seems to imply three possible meanings a baby might have for “mama”: while suckling, the baby hears the sound it makes “mama”; it then associates the sound “mama” to either the activity of sucking and/or the source of suckling — which could be breasts or mother. So the three meaning are suckling, mother, and breasts!

I found this on the net:

This expression dates from about 1700, but mum, meaning “silence,” is much older. In 2 Henry VI (1:2) Shakespeare wrote, “Seal up your lips, and give no words but mum.”

But the “mmmm” theory could still be relevant.

He is not really snapping his fingers is he? To me, it appears that he is just acted like he was snapping his fingers while shooting the video — not lip-syncing, but finger-syncing! Also, he might have added the sound after shooting the video.

My theory is that Mum refers to suckling or breastfeeding. It kept me quiet! :wink:

Wow! We had a concurrent thought. (see below). Unless I unconciously recalled your earlier lessons.

Darwinian theory aside,

How did we (who speak English – in a modern western civilization) arrive at (the word) Mother?”
Here it is restated with maximum verbosity to appease they who didn’t understand the simply stated, all inclusive version.
I figured Marina could teach us the origin of Mother’s Day, as part of this lesson.

You guys really like his first video? Humm Maybe I need to re-upload my video. I uploaded it already but Youtube rejected it for it was too long. It’s 15 minute long an YouTube that is full of weird stuff. I just have to find a way to cut out 5 minutes of video without losing continuity. I also have an issue for it has copyrighted music in it. I just can’t do an overlay for there is speech that would get wiped out. It’s a really corny video I did many years ago to learn how to use iMovie 2 for the Mac. The goal was to do every mistake one could do with a video. We applied many special effect that turned out rather funny.

Question, if I upload this video will it get flagged right away? I don’t have the original file we used to make the video and I don’t know yet out to pull out the music and replace it with something else for it’s mixed up with voices. Any ideas?

So lets try this again. I had a great Friday night. Met up with some friends from boating. They wanted to go drink wine and enjoy the evening telling stories and what not. So all five of us went to Marie’s condo. Oh yeah her name sounds similar to Marina. She’s even good with words. So all 5 five of us (3 ladies and 2 guys) talk about boating rules, Music and words. Yes, we talked about words. Marie brought out her laptop and looked up words. It was like a HotForWords party! I did not write down the words we were looking up for I could not find my jacket that had my note pad and pen. Hey I was drinking some wine (which is very rare for me) and duck farts. So one words had to do with one slice of bacon. I’ll ask Marie what the words were and get back to you guys. I think you might enjoy them. It turned out to be a really fun evening. Any of you guys ever have a party and talk about words or etymology?

(Hey Marie J., if your reading this send me a message of the words we covered last night, tnks!)

There is a board game out called ‘boulderdash’ :?: that is great!

Intellectually stimulating, its fun, and you’re excercising your brain; what more could you ask for. Ohh, every now and then you might have to give a fake belly laugh for the double-digit I.Q.’s :twisted: , but I look at as a small price to pay to keep the old ball a bouncin’!

I judge a man 3 ways: what he does, what he says, and if he does what he says. Simple, yes; but it always seemed to work for me. So far, BHO has failed in all 3 of these criteria.
I have 2 rules for life:
1) Lead from the front, dont watch from the rear.
2) You dont get respect, you have to earn it…everyday.
I think hes failed in #1 by waiting to take a position and then changing. I agree with Cha-Cha(surprise) on #2. Because hes president, BHO feels he already has our respect. I think alot more people are having a ‘wait and see’ attitude.

I also never trust a man with a pinkie ring but thats a whole other story :!: :lol:

OK. While the music is interesting, for the video to be captivating as a video, the finger-syncing must be fool proof; but the finger-syncing in the video is weak.

I suspect it is hard to overlay music on a video as a post-production step: at least one magicians on YouTube plays music during his performance to prove to the audience that he is doing “real magic” and not using camera tricks — to prove that he is showing the audience raw footage. He says that if he used camera tricks, people would notice breaks in the music because he says it is hard to sync music to a video that is not a raw footage but an arrangement of clips.

BTW, is that you in the avatar or did you clip it from a McCalls?

thank you

No, I didn’t. I guess that explains why I haven’t heard anything. Great player, as much as I hate to say it! Maybe they’ll meet in championship game again. Be a different result this time :twisted:

Many Smiles,
Momica :)

Me Lika Do The Cha Cha, these videos are not to replace my lessons. What are you talking about?

Hi beevee14,

Yes, it is I. Thank you for the compliment. :smile:

A friend of mine is a photographer/artist/stuntman (he was in POTC — an Asian pirate) and took that for me over the summer. Oh, I forgot, he’s also a musician. And was in Cirque. Disgusting how much talent can be packed into one human being, isn’t it? :razz:

With regard to football, I don’t trash talk (unless I know you personally and you went to F.S.P-U. Then you leave me no choice.). Otherwise I respect a person’s team and wait quietly until the end of the season to gloat. :wink:

Happy Weekend,
Monica

:smile: Hears a song…The Pretenders “Precious”… :lol: God Bless HotForWords and MARINA too :cool:

I agree; these videos are terrible! What’s worse than the fact that he spends time making crappy videos like this is that PEOPLE ACTUALLY WATCH THEM. I’m losing hope in humanity. Michael Aranda needs to die in a fire.

For what it’s worth, since I sorta know the dude who did the snapping vid, the snap sounds actually are “live”. I–er, I mean, HE–set the editing timeline up with markers every four frames to act as eighth-note markers, then starting cutting up the original snapping footage and dropping different snaps in to construct the beats.

Regardless, the video is novel at best and this Michael Aranda dude probably won’t hold anyone’s attention for very long.

Michael Aranda is a fag.

Only the real michaelaranda would say that. :lol:

:mrgreen:

I went to your site(hope ya don’t mind) and checked it out. You seem like the type of person people are happy to know and thats a good thing in this world. Look at my avatar, I can’t trash talk.

you need your tongue for every sound you make.

you shouldn’t be spreading weird myths.

i don’t know where you got this from — but it’s … well … crap.

friend of mine is studying that. language development works from front to rear. those are the easiest sounds to articulate.

just putting this here for the record.

@alex
You do realize that everybody who reads this is making those sounds and are right now wondering why you didn’t before you made such an ill-advised statement. :oops: :mrgreen:

phonetics 101. go read a book.

too funny! :cool:

Is that the best you got. WEAK!!! :mad:

Hey, be sure you tell that guy he has some great rhythm, and to expect his videos to do great.

I have to admit, but I feel exactly how michaelaranda feels about that idiot michaelaranda.. but toward jamesingtonthethird..

Firstly.. Who the hell is he…

Secondly… Just look at his videos. The video quality is good, but the content is just…..shit. You can tell he has a very good mentor, but the fact he needs a mentor just highlights his insecruities about his videos, and so they should do… He is terrible..

huh? the best i got? what are you talking about? is this a street fight or something? you seen to many bad movies?

books on phonetics are weak? if you say so.

it was merely a suggestion. if you don’t want to educate yourself — fine by me, i don’t really give a shit. just don’t try to insult me or anything on an elementary school level.

thank you.

Do I mind? Not a bit! Please send your friends. :grin:
Thank you for the lovely compliment. Be proud of your school regardless, there’s nothing worse than a fair weather fan (except one who talks trash).

I try to stay very positive. You won’t find me debating politics or judging anyone. A dear friend of mine is gay and she was with me through the entire brain hemorrhage episode. I’m so thankful for her.

I’m straight, not that it matters. I like Michael Buckley and Ellen DeGeneres. I’m also a huge fan of Mark Morford (not that he’s gay, but he’s brilliant). In my opinion, anyone who can string words together like that AND teach yoga should run for President. Or marry me. :wink:

LIL CHACHA ARE YOU IMPLICATING THAT SINCE OBAMA IS PART OF AFRICAN DESCENT HE IS FAVORED AMONG THE POPULATION? HOW DARE YOU IMPLY SUCH A THING! IT IS A TRIUMPHANT VICTORY WHICH GIVES HOPE TO ALL PEOPLE TO EXCEL. YOU “AMERICANISM” OF THINKING MAY HAVE TO ALTER ITSELF DUE TO THE REALITY OF OBAMA IN OFFICE. :lol:

no, marina’s wrong on that one. the word “mom” doesn’t come from the sound of an infant suckling from the breast. it is a very simple and passive sound to make and therefore one of the earliest ones to emerge. through positive feedback provided by the mother the sound may become strongly associated with the mother. the infant may come to recognize this and use it for further attention, which is an example of two individuals reinforcing behavior in each other. alex is correct, the explanation is simple body mechanics, motor skills and child development.

not keeping mum on this one jeorney

you need your tongue for every sound you make
orig. statement
You do realize that everybody who reads this is making those sounds and are right now wondering why you didn’t before you made such an ill-advised statement.
my CORRECT reply. you do NOT need your tongue
phonetics 101. go read a book.
your demeaning and WEAK reply. do you know me and how much I read? I confined my critique of you to what was on the page. Its sad you can’t do the same. I’m quite an avid reader, actually. Some of the books don’t even have any pictures! :twisted:

P.S. In the future, if you want to talk about somebody insulting you or anything on an elementary school level; it would be a good idea to leave the profanity out of the sentance before. :oops:

Thank YOU :twisted:

Friggin’ hilarious!!! :mrgreen: As usual, it looks like I’m running a day late & a dollar short, but anyway… Whoa, blanked out for a minute there. The kid’s got talent, what else can I say? :lol:

I’ve got it! You could do a series of words starting with [Awesome] (e.g. ‘Awesome’ is rooted in x, which is rooted in xy, and so on, until you get to ‘Marina’)!

Then the genius Michael could mix `em all together so it sounds like a rapping choir of ultimate beauty-queens! Kinda like he did with the snapping (which soooo must’ve been inspired by Zadi Diaz of Epic Fu).

lol you remembered =p yup thats what i’m using now
