For real. That was from a world that hadn’t experienced 9/11.

I feel like Pets.com is the canonical example of febrile late-bubble ad spend: www.youtube.com/watch?v=sICSyC9u5iI

That’s a play off of Triumph the Insult Dog from the Conan O’Brien Show.

Oh yeah, I forgot about that. Good catch! en.wikipedia.org/…/Triumph_the_Insult_Comic_Dog

In 1999, after Triumph accused Pets.com’s sock puppet mascot of being a “rip-off” of Triumph on television shows, in print media, online, and in a letter, the company sent lawsuit threats and cease and desist letters to Smigel claiming “unfair competition, dilution and potentially tortious interference with contract in violation of federal and state laws” and the following year filed a lawsuit against Late Night and Smigel. The bankruptcy and closing of the company during the dot-com bust of 2000 ended the lawsuit. Triumph humped the Pets.com dog in a bathroom during a segment of Late Night as an act of revenge.

That cinematography though. Reminds me of the music videos you used to be able to make at Six-Flags.

Maaaan, I want my POGs back.

One of my absolute favorite features of the game “Hacknet” was finding these logs in various filesystems you hack into. Such a nice touch.

I made it a personal mission to copy them to myself before exiting the target. I distinctly remember the one about “duck stand-up comedy” too lol.

Keep calm and wipe the logs. :)

When I was a kid I thought this was the funniest thing. I’m happy that hasn’t changed. 😆

Shortly after that I got distracted with girls and impending adulthood, and stopped coding for a long time.

Now days it’s all on the level, no gray area stuff. 😇
