    What really should be preserved is the entirety of Homestar Runner.

      It probably has been by someone since it is all on YouTube now, and I think they have revived the site to most of the old functionality (I could be wrong, I’d need to be on PC to really check). The things that YouTube can’t preserve is the stuff like the mouse over Easter eggs etc.

    12 badgers doing calisthenics while a mushroom and snake occasionally appear on screen, known as “Badger Badger Badger” or “The Badger Song.”

    Somehow that description just doesn’t do it for me. Im not sure what would, but its not this.

    I mean, really, most of Weebl’s stuff should be preserved: Amazing Horse, Magical Trevor, Crabs, Telephone Dog (“Hello, this is dog!”), Russian Dancing Men, a ton of others I’ve forgot.

    I got my friend with that one back in the day. It was Flash so much harder to detect a loop than a video. I told him the ending was hilarious and he managed about 20 minutes of badger badger badger badger badger until he figured it out.

      And on the opposite end there was the Demented Cartoon Movie, which was half an hour of nonsense and non-sequitors in an age where most animations were a few minutes long. Flash movies didn’t have a progress bar at the bottom, so anyone you sent it to was stuck watching the whole thing just hoping it would please end already.

      It’s physically painful to watch today. My fellow Millennials act like Gen Z invented brain rot while ignoring that we grew up with this.

    Have they preserved where the sound gets increasingly out of sync with the video the longer you watch it? Because most archived versions don’t have this.

      Flash’s terrible audio syncing makes it hilarious that the most popular indie rhythm game was built on one of Flash’s direct successors.

    Chances are pretty good that it and Mr Weebl’s other animations are preserved in their original format (i.e. Flash SWF files) at the free Flashpoint Archive project.

    At least some of the old Jib-Jab stuff should be there also, which were some very amusing political parodies and such.
