Hey, I tried. ;)

I'm pretty sure we need more links on Transformers anyways

Drew: I can't speak to where this idea actually came from (likely alcohol was a factor) but Storm, who just turned 10 years old, has expressed interest in sprucing up the video tab.  He says it sucks and he has a plan to fix it.


So, we're gonna activate him as a quasi fark admin here shortly and see what he ends up posting.  The results could be really bizarre, or better, or both.  No idea really.


At any rate, if the video tab starts to look like we've lost our minds we really haven't, we've just turned it over to a 10 year old.


Nothing can possibly go wrong with this idea


Drew... my only complaint with the video tab is this: people submit Youtube videos, use the video tag, and then submit them to the Video tab. It's redundant. If the video is from Youtube, or it's being submitted to the Video tab, the submitter should not be allowed to select the video tag. That way, they use the tag to tell us if it's funny, strange, asinine, etc.

Good day sir,
DP

A quick test: How would Storm rate this recent vid entry
To say this dog is upset after getting a bath is an understatement. To listen to him argue with his owner over it is an absolute pleasure

I don't think a single fark comment liked it and several were abusive.

How long a ban does someone get if they comment:

Go die in a fire stupid poop-eating subby.
 
2013-09-03 06:55:54 PM  
This not a good idea. For many, many reasons.

WTF?

Come on, man.
 
2013-09-03 07:18:34 PM  
I'm adopting a wait-and-see attitude.
 
2013-09-03 07:25:11 PM  
Damn kid isn't gonna greenlight a video once he finds out about Foobies.

Hey Storm, welcome to manhood.
 
2013-09-03 07:43:52 PM  
Ugh, I'm so stupid.  I should've asked my son if he's seen any good Minecraft videos lately (it would've been in the past week or 2 since he left here).  Of course, then I'd have to tell him it's coz I want to submit them to FARK.  And then he'd ask, "What's FARK?"  And I'd have to tell him.  And then I'd be in REALLY BIG TROUBLE NOW, MISTER!!!

So.  We're taking a step up in quality.


I wonder what *else* they can do with their tongues...
 
2013-09-03 08:06:46 PM  
Where are the freakin videos?

Is this the calm before the Storm?
 
2013-09-03 08:17:33 PM  
Time to start posting links to redtube videos...
 
2013-09-03 08:34:45 PM  
I guess Storm got drunk and went to bed.
 
2013-09-03 08:50:01 PM  
As someone who got sponsored to TF when he was 15, I approve. Honestly, being around here is actually more wholesome than the average school cafeteria experience these days.

has a 90% chance of awesome

Nothing To See Here: Where are the freakin videos?

Storm is just very picky at greenlighting things.  He won't greenlight *any* random crap.  Unlike Drew.

:P

freak7: I guess Storm got drunk and went to bed.


You'd think that no 10-year-old would get drunk, but I was 2 when I got smashed.  Drank everyone's beer at some big picnic thingee.  True story.  Cool story, bro.  Etc.

I Have The Touch of a Shocked Monkey: As someone who got sponsored to TF when he was 15, I approve. Honestly, being around here is actually more wholesome than the average school cafeteria experience these days.


That's only because you're a Peter Gabriel fan, which automatically qualifies you for Ultra*Fa*#%*()&*!$#%! CARRIER LOST

2013-09-03 09:10:23 PM  
Stuff like this, btw, is what helps make FARK pretty damn awesome.
 
2013-09-03 09:10:43 PM  
Did we get trolled?
 
2013-09-03 09:13:35 PM  

Krymson Tyde: Did we get trolled?


You're talking about the same guy who got hammered one night and blew away the Politics queue.

.... Although, when you think about it, there's really not a damn thing wrong with that.  Politics tab people are cray-zee!

Jesus, I sure hope so.

2013-09-03 09:35:39 PM  
Drew is apparently passed out on the couch while Storm in out cruising the neighborhood in the SUV.
 
2013-09-03 09:50:03 PM  
Good. A couple of days without the usual repeats might be nice.
 
2013-09-03 09:50:19 PM  
As a father of an unpredictable 9-year-old, I say "go for it!" I'll be over here with my popcorn.

LET'S DO THIS

 
2013-09-03 10:24:15 PM  
as long as it doesn't turn in to Fark TV. sure go ahead. I mean a 10 yr old can have more greenlights that a liter thats only been coming here for 10 years or so...

/nope not bitter....

Well, it can't be worse than Vine, or all the animated GIFs on Google+, right?

This is a fantastic idea and I lend it my full support.
 
2013-09-03 11:44:43 PM  
It couldn't be worse than the flood of LiveLeak postings of stolen YT vids.
 
2013-09-04 12:06:07 AM  
So does this mean we get a couple of greens before school, and a bunch after homework is done and before bed-time?

/What time is dinner at Drew's
//Might be best time time to submit vids

gilbyguy: STORM: I'd rather... just...[music] ...sing!
DREW: Stop that, stop that! You're not going to do a song while I'm here. Now listen lad, in twenty minutes you're getting married to a girl whose father owns the biggest headline composition firm in Britain.


JEFF: You'll get over it, Drew.

Finally, a mature FARK admin on ONE of the tabs.

now just a troll.say it aint so,troll.say it aint so.
 
2013-09-04 01:37:57 AM  
I submitted this with a better headline.
Who the hell is Drew Curtis?
If the Video tab is hurt, just put it down like the Music tab and get over it.
Storm?  Who's running this place, Gwyneth Paltrow?

bigpete53: Calling CPS. No child should be exposed to Total Farkers.


I question the wisdom of exposure myself, but it does thoroughly explains the level of depravity throughout. It's not everyday I lose all respect for a man I thought was intelligent.

Brilliant!

xanadian: Drew: Nothing can possibly go wrong with this idea

Having a 10-year-old of my own, I'm betting it'll be awesome.

EviLincoln: So we can expect lots of videos about minecraft?

Like I was saying.  Having a 10-year-old of my own......


To my 10yo, Minecraft is so last year.  Clash of Clans rules.

The permaban for linking Drew's kid to 2girls1cup is going to be totally worth it
 
2013-09-04 05:26:46 AM  

Half Right: Drew: we've just turned it over to a 10 year old.

I think the world would be a far more interesting and fun place if this happened more often.


I think that's asinine.

A three to six year old? Hell, the world will be freaking INSANE.

10 years seems to be around the age where kids lose their imaginations and develop their egos.

Drew: At any rate, if the video tab starts to look like we've lost our minds we really haven't, we've just turned it over to a 10 year old.


This could be epic.

Thank god someone mentioned this for the 483,584,692nd time. It's still just so dang funny.
