100 Boring Videos (call for montage) July 26, 2008
Posted by Nalts in : Online Video , trackbackAre you really, really bored? No- I mean SUPAH FREAKY bored? Okay then here’s a challenge. Make a montage out of these nearly 100 video replies to my “bore me” challenge (where more than a year ago I invited people to make 30-second videos that reach into their inner bore).
I’ll feature your montage here on the blog and my youtube channel page. It might be funny to select a handful of the best and return to them a few times as you rotate through the rest.
Here’s the collection. Get rippin’ and editing!
I had forgotten about this contest until Chris sent me this YouTube Poop version of my video (youtube poop is when someone mixes up your video to make it even stupider).
Watching Chris’ video made me realize why Starbucks people don’t understand me. My wife sometimes wants half caffeinated and sometimes defaffeinated, and the words started to blend together. So when I say “half caf decaf” I mean “half caffeinated and half decaffeinated, or “50% caffeinated.” Now I realize they’re hearing a contradiction (I want half caffeinated… no, I want defecaffeinated) and they’re seeking clarity. As they pursue clarity about the caffeine I’m too busy thinking about whether I’ve translated the size correctly (Tall/Venti) and trying to remember how many pumps of vanilla and what the french term for hot milk is (latte).
- “A loaf of bread, potato milk and a stick of butter.” That was one of the most-quoted lines from Sesame Street when I was young. It’s a little cartoon African American girl trying to remember her grocery list, and she says it over and over… “A loaf of bread, potato milk and a stick of butter.” We found out later that there was no such thing as potato milk, and it she was saying “container.”
- The Alligator King’s 7th son was saying “daddy, it appears to me that you could use a little help” and not “Daddy- apestamego you could use a little help.”
- And The Electric Company intro was not “H You Stay.” Oh screw this post. I need to do a 1970s kid show nostalgia post.
Two years of anxiety ordering my wife’s Starbucks, and now I find out why the whole thing breaks down.

Did you run out of ambien too?
I don’t think he ran out of Ambien as much as he forgot to take his Ritalin.
That was one of the most misspelled and rambling posts you have ever made, Kevin.
How come my “Bore Me” reply isn’t in there? I know it was REALLY boring, and like 9 minutes long, but come on!
Do I want to make a video montage from nearly 100 boring videos?
Umm… no.
What nutcheese said.
I didn’t bother reading this, it was too boring.
Hey, xjasongarciax, that’s usually my line!
Nalts: Have you seen this one? It’s not bad:

pretty good, not boring at all, should be longer
“pretty good, not boring at all, should be longer”
I actually thought it was a little on the long side. But as a mash-up, I thought it was pretty god.
I’m thinking of changing my name to “Deux cent quatre-vingt dix-septieme etage”.
What do you think?
Two hundred and ninety-seventh floor? Am I missing something?
Let me guess: Was it a melted pocketwatch?
How can anyone mix up the words potato and container?
Tramadol….
Buy tramadol. Tramadol….
