Contest: Where is my Avatar picture from?
 
This is probably pretty hard, but I have faith.

Magublafix 04.28.2006 06:36 PM

my avatar is my own production... and sry if there are mistakes in the words i write, but i'm drunkn right now....

atari 2600 04.28.2006 06:38 PM

is it a detail of some Marc Ecko graffiti?

you gotta pan back some or give us some kind of clue...it's too small of a detail. Let us see more of the picture, please.

i've got a sense of what it is in the back of my mind & when someone gets it, i'm gonna be like, "oh yeah."

krastian 04.28.2006 07:52 PM

Damn CHOUT, I thought you'd still have that "You Can't Do That On Televison" one on.

atari's is some Basquiat graffiti....what exactly does that one say? I can't make it out.

You guys will never guess mine.....she's pretty rare.

CHOUT 04.28.2006 08:38 PM

It's from a band's video. I know some of you like them. Like I said, this is a hard one.

Thanks atari.

HaydenAsche 04.28.2006 10:15 PM

Holy skeet this is hard.

SugarLips 04.29.2006 05:26 PM

What Year was the video released ? is it Money for Nothing ?

PAULYBEE2656 04.29.2006 05:30 PM

is it beastie boys or roland rats rat rapping...... dont ask, they were the first 2 that came to mind!

oh... maybe the clashs this is radio clash?
hip hop buzz happening with it y see

Savage Clone 04.29.2006 05:36 PM

It's that cartoon where the frogs play the hippo's teeth like a marimba, but I can't remember where it's from!
Is it Lightning Bolt?

CHOUT 04.29.2006 07:54 PM

Nope. The video is older...It's not a frog. If I told you what was playing the hippo's teeth, it would be a dead giveaway. But I will say this: what is playing the hippo's teeth doesn't have arms and legs in real life...

Sheriff Rhys Chatham 04.29.2006 09:19 PM

husker du in 85'?

CHOUT 04.30.2006 01:31 AM

nope. earlier, though the band is still active.

SpectralJulianIsNotDead 04.30.2006 01:58 AM

Could it be from the part of Pink Floyd the Wall where I stop watching because I never get high hence I can never comprehend it? Oh wait, you said still active.

The Day my Baby Gave Me a Surprise by Devo

It's not a really well-circulated video & I could never have figured it out without Savage Clone's post. That was a real stumper, CHOUT...thanks for the fun game.

do i/we get a surprise now?

some SAMO© (Same Old Shit) tags:
SAMO© 4 the indirectly invovled, the easily convinced & baffled.
SAMO© as a neo art form.
SAMO© as an end to to mindwash religion, nowhere politics and bogus philosophy.
SAMO© as an escape clause.
SAMO© as an end to playing art.
SAMO© as an end to bogus pseudo intellectual. My mouth, therefore an error. Plush safe...he think.
SAMO© as an alternative 2 playing art with the 'radical chic' sect on Daddy's $ funds.
SAMO© a pin drops like a pungent odor.
SAMO© does not cause cancer in laboratory animals.





 


THE WHOLE LIVERY LINE BOW LIKE THIS WITH THE BIG MONEY ALL CRUSHED INTO THESE FEET - SAMO©

Savage Clone 04.30.2006 12:05 PM

DAMMIT!
I have the fucking DVD and I still didn't get it!
Thanks atari!

CHOUT 04.30.2006 02:53 PM

The day I gave you a surprize:





























 

Enjoy!!!!!!!!!!!


I was convinced Mr. Clone was gonna get it! I am impressed! Good Job atari 2600!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

btw for those who don't know, it's a potato playing the hippo's teeth. In the commentary for the video on the dvd (The Complete Truth About De Evolution), someone complained that the animators made the potato too dark - thus making it even harder to guess what it was. I love that cartoon!
