Despite having seen the clip many times, I never made the connection that “chickadee” is what those birds are called. Now I feel like a right tit.
Also, I believe the mouseover text may have mixed up Kate with Cindy or Ricky, although to be fair those lines really start blending together if you haven’t heard the song in a while, and to be fairer, who among us can say we haven’t let our imagination get the better of us as we scramble to come up with ways in which we are similar to Kate Pierson?
I also like those birds that go ‘birdy birdy birdy birdy’ but they’re american so I don’t think they gave us the English word.
NAR you didn’t say music video NOR clip. But speaking of audio clips… I read a lot of these comics to myself, but this time I had to record it. As always, take 1 was a lot better than take 5, the one I recorded. https://jumpshare.com/s/fY0vxunRSMs9tkSO3ZZp
You wouldn’t believe how good take 1 was. So.. extemporaneous.
Nar: You’re right. Cindy is a Pisces, Kate is a Taurus.
Also, wow, Wonderella! Blast from the past there.
Cold: That Haywood accent is hilarious! Not how I imagined him*, but funny in its own way. It’s the kind of thing the Northern Cardinal will never achieve, just saying “birdy birdy birdy” all the time, as they do.
*Gravelly without a drawl, speaking with intensity somewhat, but not alarmingly, quickly.
Ahhh more like Col. Hunter Gathers.. Funny, I actually have to stop myself from speaking somewhat, but not alarmingly, quickly when recording stuff. Part of fatigue I reckon, unconsciously trying to get it finished sooner.
Cold: Okay, that’s actually awesome. That is up there with Xindaris’ take on Solar Pleasure Juice. Mountain Time can truly bring out the best in people.
And yes, I agree I totally didn’t say clip and embarrass myself like the time my friend called me on my handy and asked me if I eventually wanted to come to his party. I imagined a fancy occasion with guests raising their glasses shouting “one shot!”, so I thought I’d show up in my best smoking. But I clearly got my informations mixed up, because when I arrived, everyone was casually dressed in their baskets like they were on a camping. They looked at me as if I’d pulled up in an oldtimer. I went into the water to change (my friend didn’t have a dressing), and took off my jacket so I just looked like a salaryman instead of a jolly. In the end it was a great party though — there was a coffeeshop around the corner, so we spent the night blowing and watching movies on the beamer.
(Bonus points if you get all 15, and I sure hope there aren’t more than 15 in there this time.)
Awkward situation I’ve just been exposed to for the first time: wanting to compliment someone for perfectly nailing the execution of something for which your only real frame of reference is your own work without coming across like a self-promoting jackass.

Goddammit. Music video, not clip. I am not passing for a native English speaker today.

I believe the phrase you’re looking for is “Grape minds think alike”
