Well I'm stupider for having watched that. The one responsible for this is known as ZealousDemon. (I may or may not be referring to the Flashtrash) posted by Space Coyote at 8:27 AM on April 22, 2003
What is it about "All Your Base" that won't die? posted by McBain at 9:00 AM on April 22, 2003
AYB won't die because it's the "Where's the Beef?" of the modern era. Now pardon me while I rinse out my ears with something caustic. posted by djeo at 9:05 AM on April 22, 2003

People talking about it ;) posted by carter at 9:11 AM on April 22, 2003
what an incredibly lame flash animation. it's just a bunch of still images -- not even well-chosen ones. it somehow manages to be derivative without actually deriving any of the original's infectiousness. horrible link. posted by donkeyschlong at 9:12 AM on April 22, 2003
What utter crap. Posting for the sake of posting. Take a vacation, Mr. P. posted by xiffix at 9:14 AM on April 22, 2003
"Where's the beef?" died. "Wassssuhhhhp" died. AYB just keeps coming back. posted by McBain at 9:44 AM on April 22, 2003

Wow. MeFi Flash snobbery. How unusual.
I thought it was timely. Not brilliant or even well done, but it had to be done, didn't it? Not the worst thing I've ever seen. posted by mooncrow at 10:06 AM on April 22, 2003
If that was not the worst you've ever seen, I fear for the safety of your mortal soul, mooncrow... Postroad, keep this sh*t off the front page. It's worthless. posted by JollyWanker at 10:09 AM on April 22, 2003
That was really cool. posted by nyxxxx at 10:10 AM on April 22, 2003

Postroad, you asshole.
Looking past the who all your base thing, and the fact that it was as simple as simple gets in terms of animation... something about it got to me in parts... something about all of those soldiers in a conquered land saying "All your base..." reminded me of imperial domination.
You all can be too quick to dismiss. It's depressing sometimes. posted by dopamine at 10:33 AM on April 22, 2003
oh MY GOD!
Lighten up, people! If we can't enjoy AYB to the tune of 1992-era 8-bit bass beats, then there really is no hope for the future.
I mean, if you really don't understand, then I suggest you watch this. posted by kaibutsu at 10:56 AM on April 22, 2003

I'm far too lazy to look it up for a post like this, but this was definitely posted in the comments of one of the old iraqfilter threads... posted by Espoo2 at 12:10 PM on April 22, 2003
