Things That Make Me Happy

[tahnan]

I should post something substantive, but until I do:

1. Where The Hell Is Matt? - You might have seen it already, but if you haven't...it's beautiful. It really is. Apparently, Matt is just this guy who travels and dances badly, and had made a video of himself dancing in various places around the world. This one is the same thing, with other people joining in. And as a concept, it's stupid enough to be funny...but it's just brilliantly beautiful, because I'm maudlin.

2. Youngme - Nowme - It's just a silly little competition, some sort of zefrank thing, and I don't even know what zefrank is. But this one involves people posting two photos: one of them when younger, and a current photo that attempts to recreate the earlier one. And somehow I just find it really joyful. The care that people put into recreating these old photos of themselves is really cool. Also, it shows dedication and cleverness, and I like dedication and cleverness.

Anyway, I should head to the coffeeshop to work.

thanks for posting the youngme - nowme link -- loved that! some of them were hysterical, and the ones with multiple people (especially the one of the four people holding hands, and the baby who turned into the mom in the other pic, etc, etc) were really touching. and i love matt dancing, too - my faves are the DMZ and the anti-gravity! :o)
