Somewhere in the world exists a person who has decided that it would be a good idea to upload 2,600 YouTube videos in which he mispronounces various names in a strange inflection. As part of this person's RunTheCube YouTube channel he has uploaded videos mispronouncing the name of every single player in the National Basketball Association, including the complete roster of the Miami Heat. It is strange. It is odd. It is the kind of thing that makes you ponder what exactly has become of our information super highway, and, in my case, apparently, my entire life.



Do you think these videos were produced, or at least conceived, under the influence of marijuana? Exactly though what type of weed would make a person make a person think this was hilarious? Do stoners usually have the ambition to undertake a project like this? Not in my experience. Perhaps there were other chemicals involved. I can be naive when it comes to drugs.



A couple times as a kid I found a baggie full of a substance I couldn't quite identify in my parents' desk drawer and I asked my mom what it was. She said it was tobacco for when they rolled their own cigarettes, and I thought that was real, real fancy. None of those crappy store bought cigarettes for my parents, no sir. They take the time to roll their own cigarettes. I was sort of proud. Then I realized my parents weren't regular smokers, but then I thought they must do it at the fancy adult parties they attended. Parties where common Marlboro folk were not allowed.



Do you ever think about how weird it would be if the internet had existed when your parents were growing up? Like, what if you stumbled upon your mom's old LiveJournal or MySpace page from when she was a teen? What if she ~*~*TyPeD lYk DiS*~*~ and had decorated her page in pictures like this? Would that make you love your mother any less? Do you even love you mother? Have even called your mother lately? I bet she'd like to hear from you.
