Ok ok ok someone help me find a video I’ve been thinking about

List websites you’d watch funny flash cartoons on in like 2000-2010-ish

There was one really stupid one where there’s an exchange like this:

Man: would you like some cinnamon before ya go?

Man: Ha! It was actually basil you will now die of basil poisoning

And also:

“The seas parted and fishes died”

It was really really funny to my teenage brain.

The best Newgrounds fix ever is to paste ?emulate=flash on the end of a portal submission URL.

Viral Videos of 2004

I just remembered this random thing.

Back when people were sharing quirky clips on message boards and MySpace and such, I saw these two videos (probably both musical Flash animations) at about the same time.  One was clever and well-made, and the other was “Only in Kenya.”  Well, you can guess which one was the next inescapable viral sensation.

At the time, I was really annoyed that everyone was fixating on the cutesy lion loop when this much better video was right there, a video with an actual beginning and ending like a proper cartoon.

When I looked back on the “Only in Kenya” phenomenon a year or so later, I was unable to recall the other video that I’d actually liked.  That really bugged me.  I hoped I would run across it again, but I never did.  And so, ironically, one of my main memories of the so-called "Golden Age of Flash Animation" is the absence of a memory.

This is sort of bugging me again, now that I’m thinking about it.  I still feel like I’d recognize this video if I saw it.  Is there an organized database of popular videos from pre-Youtube Internet culture?
