Woo Smosh! Did you know smosh.com at one point in time was pretty much a NewGrounds clone @Adehm, with a Flash Portal and forum and everything NG had at that time? Before they started making their iconic videos. It's on the WayBack if you're curious, first few years of the site.

Chuggaaconroy I need to check out...

Very cool story on the profile pic... random acts of kindness really leave an imprint hmm, inspiring... and that ChuChu Rocket story!!! XD Glad you made it through that alright!!! Wonder what the guy who stopped you wanted, sounds like a potential spontaneity mugging that didn't really go how they planned it, but maybe they were just about to ask what you were doing there; help you out...

Nature's great though! Gotta get out more.

Just learned Molokhia was banned in Egypt for a while, interesting dish.

Learned quite a bit here! Never heard of Visual Snow Syndrome before either, sounds frustrating...

Nice interview y'all. The short Vocaro snippets above sound great too, gotta check more of that music.

@Cyberdevil

No I didn't, I did not even know they had a website till now, which is kinda funny cuz im pretty sure smosh.com was shown in the iconic smosh intro every single time.

Chuggaa is a classic, a lot of youtubers you may be aware of, probably grew up watching him too. His Super mario sunshine, Mario galaxy and Luigi's Mansion playthroughs are the ones I like to come back to.

To be fair, I was kinda heading in their general direction, while my head was down to my phone, so maybe that one guy thought I was gonna walk into him, but idk, I felt like I was far enough to avoid walking into him.

@Adehm

They also have an account here if you haven't seen it, before they started making videos there was @Smosh ;) That site's been through a ton of iterations, gotta link in case ya don't go looking: https://web.archive.org/web/20040101075419/http://smosh.com/

Now compare that to for example: https://web.archive.org/web/20040804002801/http://newgrounds.com/

Ah the playthrough thing is something I never really got into, but good to know about. :) nigahiga was my jam back in the day, apart from Smosh of course, stuff like: https://youtu.be/6tDRBb0apDg

Mhm it could've been! Probably a wise call though. If they actually were about to try something you might've caught 'em off guard by just not reacting at all; not seeming to care about them.

Makes for a good story anyhow, all well that ends well, and it's got that ambiguous element to it that makes you wonder! Just like the best movies do.

Good read. Adam was great to work with. I'm very thankful that Newgrounds makes it possible to find and team up with talent.
