I think people sometimes forget that the Crazy Frog was literally a TV ad spot for a novelty ringtone. Which is such an unbelievably specific bygone era that its easier to imagine it as some kind of internet meme animation.
And then it was so wildly popular that the creators overlaid some of the sound effects onto bestselling 1984 movie soundtrack song “Axel F” and it was SO popular that people just imagine the song was written for the ringtone ad frog. From when you paid for ringtones. On TV.
Wait, it WASNT meme animation?? I thought it was just like that gummy bear song 😭
So I have some news for you about the gummy bear song…
id rather you have cringy but honest interests than try and act like everything youve ever loved was in an ironic way cause you think that love for simple or useless or silly things is beneath you . pathetic! embrace existence with both hands coward
Nobody will ever be able to get inside my head. I can never know the perspective of another, even if I lived it my experience will be different because my life and attitudes and outlook are different. In a sense every being is unlike another. I can’t conceptualize something that is beyond my grasp and neither can you. A fish cannot know what it’s like to be human and we cannot know what it’s like to be a fish. My soul, or consciousness, or whatever you want to call it, can never be touched by anyone. Bodies touching each other and still you can never merge with one another. You are you and nobody can be you and you cannot be anyone but you. How lonely is that?
Yet.. Humans have a shared history, a shared experience. Perhaps we can look at the same thing and see two entirely different things but we can both look. We can share moments. We can share experiences. We are humans and our humanity is shared. Many things aren’t unique to humans either all living things share life. I guess in that way we are never alone. You look up at the same moon that wolves howl at. You smile and laugh just like humans did in medieval times. You swim in the same waters as fish and dolphins and sharks. You dance and you cry and love, just as ancient people did. You live on the same earth as turtles and polar bears and lions. Your sadness it isn’t unique, your anger it has been felt before, your happiness will live through the next generation.
Like I said in DM’s this reworded could do very well in a theological setting.
