I assume the point of this is just kind of a collection of found footage that people have labelled ASDF? If so, it could do without the third video on the playlist, which is offensive as hell.

When I saw "asdf" I thought "Oh man, I don't know what this is but I bet I'm going to love it!" but now I'm just kind of confused. Which I guess I like okay.

Tempting to just leave it at that, but I think there's stuff to see here and things to say about it.

Yeah, I pretty much said 'that kid is offensive as hell' when I watched the third one, and it made me wonder about the rest. But I'm glad I finished watching them because it's a fascinating, very tiny window into the early days of uploading video to the Web. These videos were all posted on YouTube within the first year or so of its existence, 2006 and earlier. There's kids doing dumb things as they ever have, shout-outs to MySpace, vlogging, dancing, music, and all kinds of things, mostly pretty short.

Is this a stunt post without the stunt?
Also once the idea was in my head to just type 'asdf' in all the text boxes on the New Post page I couldn't shake it.

I wish that "I pretty much said [...] mostly pretty short" was the article description, because it makes so much more sense of why this is up.

asdf, though. I can see the appeal.

Kid juggling knives is either going to go blind, or kill his dog.
