Family video of child driving prompts probe
A YouTube video showing a 7-year-old boy at the wheel of a sport utility vehicle -- with his family cheering him on -- has prompted an investigation by Quebec police and family services, police said on Tuesday.

One more example of truly horrendous parenting, in my opinion. And the parent is so amused--thinks it's so cute. "OK but that's not a nice word..." (She says after she encourages the kid to say it and laughs.) Now leave Mommy alone while I go post this on the Internet for the world to see. Nice.

This video is a piece of crap and I know that because I made it. The animation is so bad that it doesn't even move. It's just a series of stills. - 2 years ago

I saw a woman holding her toddler trip, throw/drop the kid, and then land right on top of him on the sidewalk! While I'm sure it wasn't intentional, the city had to fix that piece of sidewalk. lol
YouTube is the best - but how sad was it that the girl was filming her drunk mom to put it online? Ah, family. ;)

ok, this is a response coming from someone that doesn't have kids. i agree that it is whack to video tape your kids doing things they shouldn't and letting whatever happen, them fall, say funny bad words...in the case of the kid that was doped up at the dentist, that it purely other people trying to make money off something funny. the father simply video tapes him in a safe environment acting funny. the father DID not start making the shirts with the sayings on them or anything like that. purely other people trying to make a buck off someone elses kid. sad...sad that someone of you people dont realize that.

I have a cute anime picture that a friend did of ME! We grew up in Okinawa, that should explain ... and I like swords... uh and he made it. But it isn't the worst anime. And it's not animated.
About this week's V V F S... I sent you a message.
Of course it was GREAT.
Hey is my chick still on your wall? I keep looking. It means alot to me. I miss it. Besides it makes you look sexier/hotter/cooler (choose one or all!).Yeah I'm sticking with that story.

I actually have a fundamental problem with youtube videos, or any sort of entertainment like this (along with wrestling/extreme fighting) that people get of kick out of. It just seems really barbaric. I know people don't mean it to be that way but what is this really saying about our culture? It just seems really immature and kind sad.

I could be completely, horribly wrong here, but I think when he asked people to send him videos of bad animation, he meant directly. Animation he can feature and comment on, not animation for you to feature and comment on.

Do the animations have to be FROM or just on the internet? :P
I was going to suggest those animated Zelda: The Wand of Gamelon cut scenes (horrifying yet hilarious at the same time!), but then I remembered those Brazilian Pixar ripoff movies, words cannot describe these piles of whale feces
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1kRSbsh_1WU
Just look at that epic race.Also this one is very terrifying. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=e1BZ9XaxLx0
I'm not entirely sure how these actually exist, it just doesn't seem possible for anybody to produce and release something so gosh darned awful.

waltsar:
first off, waltsar, me not moron. Secondly, after having carefully considered the implications of posting "Rejected" i thought that it perhaps had something to offer, in the way of conversation, about the relationship between the technical process of animation and content, or rather, the viewers perception of that process manifest. i believe he asked for bad animation, which is fairly open ended. didn't think i'd need to spell it out. I am a Don Hertzfeldt evangelist, of sorts. So, shame on you for your knee-jerk reaction to assumptions about my relative intelligence.

The most awesomely bad animation I know comes from Joel Veitch of rathergood.com. Here's the link to one of his standalone things, but you could also check out his epic Tales of the Blode saga, of which
is the sixth and possibly best episode.
(note. I originally had the video as embedded content, but it had no pause button so it just looped obnoxiously. this is a repost of the comment)

I dont think the issue is with youtubing the video...I think the issue is creating merchandise like the tshirts and selling the video. Trying to cash in on it is where some people draw the line.

i think "numinant" meant that it was a bummer that the parents had to exploit the hilarity of that video beyond just having other people enjoy it. the whole t-shirt thing seems a bit much.
