*literally ten minutes ago, sitting down to find stuff for the blog*
Me: “Hey, how long d'ya think it'll take before something crazy happens?"
Tumblr media
Meghan: “..."
Me: “Like, starting from here with them doing aerobics."
Meghan: “...three minutes... and twenty-six seconds."
Me: “Alright."

Meghan: “Oh?"
Me: “Did... did the background not change between cuts? Like, not even a significant shift?"
Tumblr media
Meghan: “..."
Me: “..."
Meghan: “...well... how long was that?"
Tumblr media
Me: “...seventeen seconds."
Meghan: “I was close!"

It's been 2+ months at this point.
Sitting in my drafts folder.
Waiting.
I know it was something I said in surprise while watching Ghoul School for the blog.
Tumblr media
…but dang it, I have zero clue what
"Pin-Eyed Shaggy and the Scooballet"
was supposed to help me remember.
Can't find a screenshot. Can't remember the instance. This will go down as one of history's greatest animal-ballet-based mysteries since that fez-wearing bear in a car.

I can only apologize for being a fool for so very, very long.
For all these years, I joked about such classic moments. Thought they were funny.
And then we adopted a Great Dane.
Tumblr media
Ha, what a hilarious tweening frame, look at Scooby's face w–
Tumblr media
...ah. No.
They just do that.
As you can see in this extremely-technical simulated composite image...
Tumblr media
…identical. A perfect match.
Clearly, the blog cannot go on with errors of this magnitude.
Tumblr media
Goofy in-motion runs?
Tumblr media
...
Tumblr media
...nuh-uh. Got nothin' on a reality.
Technical errors?
Tumblr media
Video at an incorrect aspect ratio?
Tumblr media
Nope.
I've experienced 11 different levels of face smoosh, and this is only #3.
Tumblr media
Wacky camera takes, classic cartoon hi-jinx, complete with–
Tumblr media
No. Art imitates life.
...and leg imitates tail, just doin' whatever it wants.
Tumblr media
So in light of our grievous misrepresentation of dog reality, SDM has no choice but to shut down.
...at least until the end of April Fool's day.
...which is in two hours and fourteen minutes. But still.

"...oh no. Did you remember those watches Scooby and Scrappy were wearing?"
Carl the Animator: “Yup, got 'em in the next scene."
Ted the Animator: “Phew! Thanks. Great continuity."
Carl the Animator: “C'mon, why wouldn't I have remembered?"
Tumblr media
Ted the Animator: “Well, only Shaggy ever really has one, and just occasionally…"
Tumblr media
Ted the Animator: “...so when they do their little 'synchronizing watches' bit…"
Tumblr media
Ted the Animator: “…I mean, it's not exactly a commonplace detail."
Carl the Animator: “You underestimate me, Ted. I was never one to forget a dog watch."
Ted the Animator: “Apparently so! At any rate, let's move on to–"

Ted the Animator: “There's nothing in this I'm not looking at. Nothing."

"...sauntering... butler octopus... passing by a vulture perch... about to serve tea and fudge."

"...yeah, can't really ask for more than that."
Question the orange toupee? Sure we can. Ask for more? Nuh-uh.

This was the first thing that popped up when I clicked the activity feed.
Only vaguely remember it happening, but got a good chuckle all over again.
That's the magic of doing this for nearly a decade – even I can be surprised by what past me found!
–Colin
The real magic of a walking loop is that for gif-making... well, you don’t have to use *every* frame, do you?
For instance, let’s say we take only frames of Daphne’s left leg extended…
Tumblr media
…and then… then, um…
Tumblr media
…well, it sorta speaks for itself
fred and daphne are sorcerers

"Magic blue general arm lump?"
Carl the Animator: “…I know what all those words mean, but not in that order."
Tumblr media
Ted the Animator: “Seriously, watch. General guy finds chair."
Carl the Animator: “Ok, that's one word down I now understand."
Tumblr media
Ted the Animator: “Gets comfy."
Carl the Animator: “...not really another word, but he does have arms, so I'm counting it. Two."
Tumblr media
Ted the Animator: “At last, upon weighing his options…"
Tumblr media
Ted the Animator: “...he promptly grows a huge blue lump out of his arm."
Carl the Animator: “Ohhh! That."
Tumblr media
Ted the Animator: “Yes."
Carl the Animator: “Now I get it."
Ted the Animator: “..."
Carl the Animator: “..."
Ted the Animator: “...well?! What the heck?!"
Carl the Animator: “I thought he could use a shadow."
Tumblr media
Ted the Animator: “But it doesn't appear in any other– and it just suddenly– the shape and size is–"
Tumblr media
Carl the Animator: “Shhhhhh, there, there. Everything's fine."
Ted the Animator: “...but... but... but..."
Carl the Animator: “Just give yourself over to the power of the magic blue general arm lump."

Disinterested Mustachioed Man: equally gifted in the ways of nose, not to mention '70s collars

Just A Blank Frame They Hung Up: I'd think it was a mirror, but a vampire lives in the house and that would be rude

Floating Goat Head On Gradient: a decisive piece of social commentary, though I don't know of what

Wait What Oh No I'm Sorry Who Is That: seriously is he making a duckface too I'm very scared

So, I opened a box this evening, and am now full of regret.
Was photographing an event in a swanky old building.
It's near the end of the night, hallway is empty.
And there's this box.
Illuminated mysteriously, only by the old lamp sat next to it.
It's one of the random fancy items on display, but the latch sure looks loose– nope, touched it, it's totally loose.
And nothing says it's off-limits.
And nobody's watching.
And I crack the lid gently, cautiously, fearfully.
And I peer inside.
And it holds a replacement lightbulb for the lamp, plus some broken plastic doodad from the '80s.
So.
Where does regret come into this?
I completely forgot to take a picture, I was trying so hard not to laugh.
Sorry. You'll just have to take my word for it. I've opened Pandora's box, and it's actually pretty lame.

"…crap. Gonna have to redo this."
Carl the Animator: “What's wrong?"
Ted the Animator: “Just realized I forgot the door and doorbell-face in the wide shot. I'll–"
Tumblr media
Carl the Animator: “Wayyy ahead of you. Took care of it."
Ted the Animator: “...eh?"
Tumblr media
Carl the Animator: “You can relax, I noticed earlier and fixed it in the closeup."
Ted the Animator: “How?!"
Carl the Animator: “Made him look disappointed at the continuity."
Tumblr media
Ted the Animator: “..."
Carl the Animator: “It's lampshading."
Ted the Animator: “That is not what lampshading–"
Tumblr media
Carl the Animator: “And then he keeps staring with disdain at the button for not blending in with the background at all."
Ted the Animator: “..."
Tumblr media
Carl the Animator: “You're welcome."
Ted the Animator: “…I'd say it's the thought that counts, but I'm not sure thought ever entered the picture."

I leave the house. Puppy is happily sleeping in her cozy bed.
Shortly after, I return.
Tumblr media
"…stuff's laid out kinda weird... I guess when Meghan took you outside, you–"
Tumblr media
"..."

"...wait, what."
Tumblr media
"You! Yes, you! Miss Tiramisu! What even is this stuff?!"
Tumblr media
"...and more importantly, how did you acquire it in under half an hour unobserved?!"
After sufficient forensic examination, we eventually determined she managed to pull a roll of parchment paper through the top of her kennel.
...how a full roll of parchment paper got under her food container? The world may never know.

Tonight, we'll be having pizza.

If it looks anything like pizza looks in Scooby-Doo, I'll be less than pleased.
...actually, now I really want a "Hanna-Barbera pizza" recipe intended to replicate the weird, neon-topped cardboard monstrosities.
