WHAT'S A DONG?


2m read
·Nov 10, 2024

Hey, Vsauce. Michael here, next to a giant bird, which can only mean one thing. I'm in London, where even the pillows say "God save the Queen."

It's a cushion, Michael. Alright, look. I've got a bird trying to tell me what to say. That's right, in England this is a bird and this is a bird. Of course, I call her Hazel.

But I've got a piece of knowledge for you, Hazel. It's a new word and the word is DONG. DONG. Is that something you eat? No. It's things you do online now, guys.

Iambebeast recommended Musicovery, an awesome site with a mood pad. Mouse over the pad to choose your current or desired mood and it immediately changes. You can even focus it on a decade or genre within your mood.

But if you want complete control, upload your own favorite song to Pixel White, like you Ulication. The game lasts as long as the song you upload and the song's equalizer bars become the playing space.

Dizquier91 brought up a list of sites, where you can waste time like a professional. While I was there, I found Nooooooooooooooo.com. When something terrible happens, go there and push the button.

I also discovered ooooiiii.com. The title makes more sense after you go there. But if you want TheCasalex's computerception, play a game where you're on a computer.

Or Coachhere recommends a game with state of the art ASCII graphics. You're a Rafflecopter dropping WTF bombs on guys wearing roller skates. Too fancy? Well, play this even simpler game programmed to happen inside your URL bar.

Use the arrow keys to move the "O" to lasso A's and press the spacebar to kill as many as possible in 30 seconds. PointlessSites is another good collection of places. While I was there I found One Billion Mazes, a site that literally has 1,000,000,000 mazes.

If you solved one maze every single second, it would take you more than 31 years to finish them all. Speaking of long times, here's a YouTube video of a guy counting to 100 thousand and yeah, that says 74 hours.

41, 42, 43. 44, 45. But to feel really sad, play Platform and learn a life lesson. Videos, do you want more?

Well, this one is a really sweet playlist containing the first hour of MTV as it originally aired with the original commercials. And lately I've been working with Greg from Dr. Coolsex and getting into his WTF series. Each week we learn a little bit more about what happened or what's happen...ing.

You be the judge. And if you're in London, I hope to see you at Summer in the City tomorrow. And as always, thanks for watching.
