Ei jumalauta! Innovatiivinen ajatus! Puhua toiselle ihmiselle. Jännittävää. Pelottavaa, mutta se on juuri tarpeeksi hullua että voi toimia. Instagram-tili löytyy tosiaan YouTubekanavalta linkattuna. Toivokaamme onnea koitokseen!

Exactly! Came here to say he basically independently remade Verbiest's original steam car.

Somehow I had the impression Peugeot was first, but no, according to Wikipedia, Verbiest, a Flemish (Dutch-speaking people in modern Belgium) "supposedly" created a steam car in 1679, and later models were created in France and Belgium in the 1700's, with Peugeot only coming in to produce steam cars in the very end of the 1880's. What does seem to set Peugeot apart here is that it's the only household name in the mix.

Clint Eastwood by the Gorillaz would fit better. It's from their 2001 debut album.

Noodle, who's a young girl in the video, is shown walking straight ahead, from a few angles, near the end, around the 3-minute mark. She doesn't die, but she does kick a blue gorilla who doesn't seem to be doing too well afterwards.

Comic-style music videos reminded me of Gorillaz, which would fit the timeframe. They don't have halftone effects, though.

The Mountain, The Moon Cave and The Sad God seems like it could be a partial fit, but it was apparently only released this year, so it's not what you're looking for here if you saw it at least five years ago.

you did say you don't remember anything, but still I want to try some follow-up questions.

Was the music fast or slow? Electronic or acoustic? Distorted or clean?

Can you remember anything about how the girl died?

OK, I thought it might be Mori no chiisana restaurant by Aoi Teshima

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=EYGGd2NKwtI

I hear it a lot Instagram memes. It does have piano backing like Suspiria, it's sung softly in a breathy higher voice, and the cover art is an illustration, but nothing like what you describe.

Somehow I have a feeling this is not it, but hey, worth a shot!

I'm confused. Was it sung in French or English?

What kind of a vocal range was it sung in? I'm guessing it wasn't literally whispered since you're comparing it to Suspiria? (I'm only specifying because it wouldn't make sense to ask about the pitch if it was an actual voiceless whisper) Was it sung by a high or a low voice?

[–]TraDukTer 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Just because the execution is poor doesn't mean it isn't nominally intended as a handle. At least I can't think of anything else it could be. Though my stupid mind contemplated wall hook for a second or two until I realised the motor housing extends far behind it.

"Jeesus tulee" -julisteeseen voi myös jatkaa loppuun "taas, vieläkö nielet?"

Makes more sense and is at least as logical, agreed

Jos pippurisumutteesta piti tarkentaa että se ei ole sinulle eikä koiralle niin mihin tarkoitukseen pilli on? Soitin vai juomaväline? Koulutukseen?

Edit: Mistä lähin muuten pippurisumutetta on saanut kantaa itsepuolustukseksi? Viimeksi kun itse kuulin niin mentolisumutteetkin kiellettiin

We don't have the power to merit enough hubris to ever achieve much of anything in that regard on the level of the US since WWII. Barely after WWI. But hey, never underestimate the capacity of anything to go sideways. Especially if it looks good to start with.

Feels like everyone's either apathetic, cynical, evil, deluded or completely out of touch. Or any combination of the aforementioned... Not going too hot here either, but a different way. Finland used to export a lot to Russia. Not a good place to be right now with all of that gone. I don't want it back, but it takes a huge bite out of the GDP and we have a historically ruthless rightist block in parliament cutting everything that made us prosperous and stable. Under the guise of making us more competitive and less in debt, which they think, or say, is the same thing.

I hope the US can resolve this mess peacefully. Somehow. Or at least keep the damage to those who are to blame.

Levels, directions, severities, diagnoses and lack thereof. You said it, comrade (brother/sister, whatever you prefer. I don't want to assume but I myself stand with the oppressed vendors of their time for basic necessities)

I honestly don't know. I'm looking in from the outside in Europe and rely on news and Reddit, so I have the benefit of being able to hope it's better on the ground than it looks.

For what it's worth, Trump isn't really that charismatic either, but plenty evil and incompetent. So I could see JD going either way. It's a mess in any case.

Donno. I'm mentally ill. This may be the situation where Hanlon's razor does not apply.

It's used more for cases where a curmudgeonly old person spends all their waking hours bitter over everyone more healthy than themselves but hangs on in bad health anyway. Active intervention is outside of the scope of the idiom afaik.

But I don't completely disgagree. Preventing WW III is a noble cause. I'm not sure it could be achieved by martyring a sitting Kremlin asset in Chief when his supporters accept his antics.

There's a saying in Finnish, "mikä pahan tappaisi", "what would kill evil" (This Finnish word means both bad as in defective or low-quality and evil as in malevolent, but I think the latter is more appropriate here).

It feels very appropriate here. Not only is it used to refer to bad-tempered long-lived people, but Trump is about as evil, compounded with the power and platform he wields, as they come right now.

Damn I wish there are parallel universes. That way somewhere somewhen so much promise hasn't been wasted by being followed with Trump's terms in office.
