But I never got how "fair use" can be so misunderstood. It's really not complicated.


Yeah, why is everybody so fucking stupid! Gah!!! Why can't people just know everything I know, it's not that hard!!

okkie: There's a difference between not knowing and misunderstanding. This is what "not knowing" looks like:

Isn't that fair use?


By contrast, this is what "misunderstanding" looks like:

Yeah, that pretty much falls under fair use actually

Sumotori Dreams is actually hilarious to watch, it's too bad they didn't show more of it.

OMG scene footage stolen! :)
Just kidding, i think it's cool for someone in the scene to get a few seconds in the air of such a hugely popular show.

Or we could start sending demoscene greeting cards to Conan, like finnish people did a few years back. In result Conan did some pretty nice tributes and jokes about Finland and he also visited here =)

kurli so you think with enough spamming we could get Conan O'Brien to show up at breakpoint and film jumalauta boy dancers?

enough post cards and conan would be one of the jumalauta boy dancers!

Gargaj: Supposedly he looks like our then/current president (who's a woman):

But if i recall correctly it didn't start from there, but from the "Conan O'Brien hates my homeland" skit (making fun of all the countries in the world, in alphabetical order), and escalated into loads of fan mail, the president look-a-like thing and Conan's visit to Finland plus a special episode of Late Night with just footage of Conan in Finland.

so... "Conan O'Brien hates my subculture", anyone?

the demoscene wouldn't have a chance against goths, emos, and infuriated twilight fans.

you mean finland had the upper hand against france by default? :D

NOW LET'S START A FURIOUS POSTCARD CAMPAIGN AGAINST CONAN:

"STOP HATING OUR SUBCULTURE WITH YOUR UNCREDITED SUMOTORI DREAMS CLIPS, PS. TIMBALAND ALSO STOLE STUFF FROM US"
MA PANTS IS OFF!

let it be known that the occurence of sumotori dreams within the bounds of obrien's show "fucking owns" as such
and yeah, this is like the coolest thing that ever happened to the little shitty thing nobody cares about that we call the demoscene, ever. congrats!

wtf, did the most shameless self-plugger in the demoscene just call me "capitalist scum"? ahwell, fair enough, i don't think stalin got his job by not telling everyone how awesome he was.

but anyway, cool stuff nevertheless, and some demoscene exposure is always nice. i just think it's sad how many tv presenters make their best jokes on other people's funny material - be it conan o'brien or any random other similar showdude. i mean, the fact that sumotori dreams is funny is the only reason that that movie is funny. the same holds for 90% of comparable jokes made on other talkshows (in europe just as much as the usa). i'm like, since when does collegehumor.com have more budget for selfmade sketches than MSNBC? and how does my thinking that make me a capitalist pig? i just think conan o'brien is a lame ripper.

So, demoscene is now officially part of the US pop culture.

YEEEEEEEEEEHAAAAAAAWWW
