one intentionally designed mob from mob psycho 100 to be a super generic schoolboy nerd character and somehow looped around and made one of the most recognizable characters in shounen
even if you don't know what mob psycho 100 is there's a good chance that enough bullshit from it has bled through into your periphery that you'll see this half assed sketch I just made and be like "oh, that guy. yeah.":




where does the mobness lie?



like am I crazy, or...?


how is it so powerful

Toni Basil's real name sounds like a TTRPG spy named Toni Basil had to make up a fake name in the middle of a conversation

in my travels (google) i learned that toni basil's HEY MICKEY is actually a cover of both this swedish song:




and this wholly unrelated song:

just learned "In the Hall of the Mountain King" was written sarcastically



this puts it in the company of "Cum On Feel the Noize" and "Fight for Your Right" in the pantheon of songs where somebody went "duhhhh duhhh duhhh haha that's what those idiots over there sound like" and the world responded "wow that's an awesome song. that's your best song, actually. in fact this is what you're famous for now, forever"

and yes I did click cow pats and yes he meant exactly what I thought he meant

the only other Grieg song I know is Morning Mood. you know it even if you don't know you know it, it's the one about the sun rising peacefully over a placid meadow or something
it's definitely not about fighting a group of monkeys with a tree branch in the Moroccan desert right that would be silly

that's for the public to decide

the one-time passcodes to log in to my school account (for two-factor-authentication) are 7 digits long, and memorizing them made me realize,

do you remember the rhythm that everybody used to use for pretty much every phone number?
doot-doot-DOOT, doot-DOOT, doot-DOOT
it might just be an American thing but I know I'm not crazy, because I remember a comedian, I think Jim Gaffigan, doing a bit about it, how it's like impossible to catch a phone number the first time if somebody doesn't use that rhythm. then he goes like "yeah the number is seveneightsixTHREE one s arhahrlahlaha" and he was right it messes with your brain

I've been realizing that I don't instinctively use that rhythm anymore, and I don't think anybody else does either. I feel like I haven't heard it for a really long time
but also, when I make a conscious decision to use it to memorize the 7 digit codes, it's the best way I've found to not screw it up or have to read it again

PART THREE: my possibly unfalsifiable hypothesis is as follows, as such (and thusly): the phone rhythm was borne out of the necessity of everybody constantly memorizing 7 digit numbers. we all subconsciously gravitated toward this rhythm that, for whatever reason, resulted in the fewest mistakes when memorizing or copying specifically seven-digit numbers in 20th century American English, and now that we don't have to have a bunch of 7 digit numbers memorized anymore (because phone numbers are 11 digits now, and because they're all stored in our fuckin thingies anyway) that muscle has atrophied

this would mean you have ancient forgotten knowledge for mastering an extremely narrow problem within. if you ever need to remember a 7 digit number for any reason, you have within you what might be the globally tested and honed best way to do it

or it could just be that the hyphen is after the first three numbers
