AI Thread Summary
The discussion centers around the website badgerbadgerbadger.com, which features an animated loop of badgers dancing to a repetitive chant of "badger" and "mushroom," interspersed with the phrase "snake." Participants express a mix of confusion, annoyance, and amusement regarding the site's content, with many noting its catchy nature and the difficulty of getting the song out of their heads. Some users liken the experience to a psychedelic or nostalgic trip, reminiscent of the 1960s. The humor is described as nonsensical, with discussions about its potential psychological effects and cultural references, including connections to magic mushrooms and broader themes of absurdity. The thread evolves into playful banter, with users sharing their reactions, debating the site's meaning, and joking about the hypnotic quality of the badgers, ultimately creating a sense of community around the shared experience of the site.

What a thread for this thing! Guess this flash has made quite an impression.
Upon seeing how popular this got, I felt it might be worth while for me to search for new fun droning animations...maybe about weasels? I figured there must be hundreds of worthy competitors for these badgers. I was wrong. Searched high and low, and I can honestly say this is by far the best one(kinda sad) It's got the best beat, certainly the most hypnotizing, and even its edjucational value is head and shoulders above the rest(really sad).

So anyway, kudos to whoever made this thing.

This reminds me of TNG episode where Riker [spelling?] bring back the bio-optically coupled [LASER] game that makes the crew slaves to an invisible master. Zanta is our Typhoid Mary! Zanta, I hope you're happy; you've got half of PF hooked on Mushroom Music.

Too late! (it was cherry - my favorite). What's that multi-colored VW van doing in my driveway? Why are there badgers oozing out of the gas tank? OOOOOO...LOOKY! There are mushrooms growing out of the headlights! I'll go pick some for my friends!

Zen badgerism meets mystic mushroom. Reminds me of my variable black light strobe - at 20 flashes per second (accompanied by appropriate water instrument), any flourescent poster would become vigorously animated, badgers et al. However, "Magic Eye" mind holographs now make for the best clean high - or any visual effect for that matter (or is it all a conspiracy?)

I've been gone for, what, one or two days and there are already two more pages here! You damned fools, it not funny! You'd think you'd all have jobs, but no, you're just a bunch of brainwashed fools saying badger; badger. And I have proof too!: many of you have changed you signiture to reflect this thread!
PS: tribdog: If the name Gale17 means she is 17 yrs old, you'd better shutup or she might be able to sue you.
Gale17: Are you one of like, what, two females on this whole website? What's that about?

I do have a job- but I was thinking of quiting to devote more time to my badgering:wink:

And gale can't sue him for making comments on the internet. Even if she was underage(which she isn't- age of consent is 16 in most states) I've never heard of someone being sued for making comments on the web. It's all in good fun! And there a quite a few females: loren brooda, kerrie, gale, entropia, tsunami- I know I'm missing someone...

So I've finally managed to turn an intellectually stimulating, soul searching, revolutionary site, and reduce it to 3 little words

Badger badger badger

*sits back and sighs in contentment*

My work here is done
 
  • #63
I didn't know kerrie and tsunami were women; I don't even know who entrophia is! Anyway, I haven't heard of it either, but with all those frivalous lawsuits...I bet the ACLU would back her for some reason too! (The age of consent doesn't matter, it'd be a harassment case, not a Kobe, I mean, rape case.)

Which is why one upright walking, hairy, bi-pedal creature who had the foresight to elicit descriptions of the site did not succumb to the game. I saw that episode, too.

I wrote that episode while I was badgering.

I think I'm the only single female though. The only teenage one too. But it'd be dumb to sue tribdog, I've gotten worse than his few comments. sides, i love attention...

I wouldn't touch that one with a 10 foot pole while surrounded by a barbed wire, electrified fence. Nice try :wink:

Gale's 18- and as far as I'm concerned, so are they all:wink:

Running joke between Zantra and myself that has evolved through many threads.



I can complain about your photo if you like.

Ya I hear her mom kind of looks like that patricia girl, but that's just a rumor:wink:

Ambiguous by name, but not hermaphroditic, at last pit stop.

Oh, yes, and the Japanese sometimes give the badger human male attributes. With a name like Booda, one learns these things.

The badger site appeal reaches from the young set to the strung-out.

Old running joke between Zantra and myself. I once confessed I thought Patricia Richardson who plays the mom on Home improvement was very attractive. Zantra made a snide response about The Freudian Oedipus Complex. I have played along taking every opportunity I could find to show interest in mother figures. The joke has been on him: I am older than Patricia Richardson. For some reason he just assumed I was, like 20 or something.

Ya well there are more young people than mature people on here. Eventually I figured you were older, but I figured why kill the
joke? hehe. Anyhow, that's what that comment was about Gale:wink:

She's a babe! On the show, she had a down-to-earth "realness" that I also found attractive. :smile:

Hmm, instead of 'rock, paper and scissors' how about 'badger, mushroom and snake'?

She's adorable. I like the way she laughs.

I've always had a thing for Betty White myself. It really comes down to her and Angela Lansbury.
