I was very happy to explain this joke because it got me listening to Enya again.

e: I've been to more of the places in the clip for that vid than I care to admit to.

It's literally been 24 hours since I didn't get a joke because I had never understood the song it was based on. Both times have involved really good songs that maybe people aren't used to.

I didn't know there was a watermelon / pickle joke based on this song by Cab Calloway

If you regret watching either of the songs I've posted then I'm sorry but you're officially broken and should go back to the store you were purchased from and ask for a refund.

My favorite Gritty story is the one by a person who was on the team that designed him and the reveal was apparently a super tense nail-biting moment because they put a lot of hours and marketing money into this and there's a chance it could backfire, but then this happened:



and he instantly became a sensation.

Brinkmanship

I forget who pointed it out, but a goon made the excellent point that when Gritty was investigated for allegedly punching a teenager, all of the media commented on the story as if it was the character himself who was accused of wrongdoing. Not "The Flyers employee who wears the Gritty suit may have punched a teen", but "Gritty may have punched a teen."

Gritty is a force of nature and I love him.

The first time I saw Gritty was a video of him shooting someone point blank with a t-shirt cannon, the second thing I saw was swathes of anti-fascist anti-capitalist memes featuring him

So I'm old and stupid and not really good with phones. How do I make this work?

I got Google to show me the horse, but how do I get it to show up on my camera? (Samsung J3 running Android, if that helps).

I ask because I'm going to an art gallery tonight with a life sized sculpture of a horse, and can't resist the idea of getting a picture of that with a Google horse.

I'm not familiar with that phone, but it will likely depend on if the phone can do AR stuff.

Google at the home screen, not in a browser. I have no idea if doing it in a browser works but I know doing it from from the home screen does. From there:

If one of those buttons isn't there, you're out of luck.

After you press the second one it will pop up the camera. Or it may ask for permission to launch the camera. You should say yes. If it doesn't ask but also doesn't work it may be you'd previously denied permission, in which case you'll have to Google how to reset it.

Britain had a mascot accused of loads of ridiculous stuff: https://medium.com/whatahowler/how-cyril-the-swan-became-the-uks-most-notorious-mascot-5422b59c1342

quote:

How Cyril the Swan became the UK’s most notorious mascot
Beginning in the late ’90s, Swansea City’s mascot was accused of all manner of fowl play, from inciting riots and head butting a referee to attacking other mascots and even a rival coach, all while saving the club’s financial fortunes. Then the nine-foot-tall bird became the prime suspect in a serious assault.

I believe you need Google Play Services for AR, which you may or may not be able to install if it's not there by default.
