who or what is RBCP?
to Dr. Zeigler and anybody else who is new: we had spam issues you wouldn’t believe. It was an attack on the subconscious. It was a virus and we were dying slowly because of it. That’s why they made it so it was so difficult to sign up and stuff. Christ, when I joined in 2008 I remember it being not hard at all. But the spam… damn, that was just ridiculous. They need a spam block, similar to add block. (I realize that won’t work)
I believe I remember reading something somewhere about the “problem of the internet” and it’s this:
Being able to share information with people around the world this quickly and this vast an audience is great but comes at a price. There are what millions, billions of websites? It’s becoming more and more difficult to get the attention of people especially with a more obscure form of entertainment like prank calls. So we should think that Jackulator is not the only possible missed gold mine but there are probably tones of other “missed goldmines” out there that we’ll never even hear of. Plus, prank calling haa the bad reputation from all the harassers, so people pass it up. Thinking we’re just more of the same. They don't see it as any interesting art form.
You know I was reading about Frank Garret, and it sounds funny at first, but if you read the whole article, it sounds like the end of his life was really screwed over from that whole thing. I don’t know if it’s true or not but if it is; that’s bullshit. He was called so many times that the FBI got involved. I know it might sound hypocritical of me but I get annoyed if somebody bothers me on the phone twice in one day. He was called waaaaaaaaaaay too many times.
I have to say, like I’ve said many times before;
Why do you feel you always need to work on the board before making a new call?
There are already probably tons (maybe hundreds? a thousand?) of clips we rarely hear already on the board. I can think of two right off the bat:
“So be it” –from a Few Good Men, very simple and useful quote but I never, NEVER hear this.
“It’s difficult for me to express myself when I’m on the verge of exploding in my pants.”
This is such a gold quote and you’ve never used it once. Except you did use the first part “It’s difficult for me to express myself” but cut it off.
Every time I watch a Jack movie I hear good quotes that I do not recognize from the board. All I’m trying to say is it sounds like you’re making more work for yourself that is unnecessary.
As far as animations go; I’ve recently discovered that there are a bunch of really talented artists on YouTube making cartoons regularly. I actually contacted one about this but I doubt anything will come of it. I’d try to find one that likes prank calls in the first place or appreciates them and could get interested in doing that themselves
I just happened to find one I love “speedosausage” on youtube because he did a tribute video to another game commentator/comedian I like.
I definitely can agree to imagining hilarious animations to these calls. It’s gold, I tell you, gold.
The thing is to do a real good animation is quite a lot of work. Depending on how detailed; taking much longer than making a prank call and even putting a small soundboard together.
that vent video was pretty funny Dr. Zeigler. I always forget about those
and happy 9000 posts Jackulator Your post count is OVER 900000000000000000000000000000000
that’s all I have to say about that. I shat myself on the couch.
