Woohoo! I'm famous!

Take a good look at this GIF, which made the front page of Memebase. Look familiar?

The best part, though, may be the fact that both the flyer and the surfer were the exact same Ducklett.

  1. Well, congrats ! Since nobody gave you credit, technically, you're not really famous, but whatever.

    Any thoughts on Paper Mario Sticker Star ? Or you just don't really care about this particular series ?

    1. Well, if I can suggest anything, you should definitely play it as a standalone game rather than a sequel to Paper Mario 1 & 2. It focuses much more on puzzle-solving than battling.

      But the real fun is in the exploration part. I'm not sarcastic, this game will really surprise you. Definitely worth it. We got it before Japan too, and that's something that almost never happen these days.

    2. Yeah, I'm aware it's almost as much of a departure from the first two games as Super Paper Mario was. I don't know that much else, though. And I'd like it to stay that way, so no spoilers, please?

    3. Well, I kinda take offense to that. I know I tend to ramble a lot, but I didn't have any intention to say more than I already had. It was probably useless to say it to you of all people, but... ya know... it's currently having a quite rough reception from the fanbase, so it was just in case you had already heard somebody bitching about it. Do you really think that what I've said is "spoilerish" ?

    4. Nonononono, this is a misunderstanding. This wasn't just for you, it was for everyone.

    5. Oh... well... this is awkward... I apologize. I've been feeling down a little bit lately and I tend to be way too much on the defensive when I do.

  2. Ha, it's always debatable whether making the front page of Memebase is a good thing. I wonder if the submitter thought the owner of the original video would see the GIF and realize it was his.

    1. Somehow I don't think he did. I mean, this is just some random footage of someone flying while surfing. Everyone's done that at some point.

      Besides, it could be worse. I mean, the footage that made it there could've been Lance's Charizard critting my Lugia to oblivion...

    2. Don't give them any ideas. That could be next.

    3. ^He's got a point. I guarantee you have at least one fan who will jump at the chance to make a meme out of you. With a little video cherry-picking, you could be Sucking at Pokemanz Guy.

    4. Well, if somebody tries to make Slow into "sucks at Pokemon guy" they are gonna get SLAPPED, at least metaphorically speaking...
