Hello pics, just wanted to say ive actually had the first good day in about 3 or 4 years, first job interview in years, and these videos still continue to help me through the bullshit of life. The world fair videos are my personal favorites, though the uh...um...crystal palace, i believe? Video, is the only to have made me bawl for whatever reason. Thank you for still uploading, because some of us are stuck in the past. Have a good day/night my guy!
@@morbidmanmusic i jokingly blame michigan, its a cursed fuckin state. Im only 23 and i legally dont exist to the government lmao. I dont even have dental records, not that theres much dental to record. It is what it is and we must struggle through it, hope ya catch a good break soon bud, have a good day/night!
i was actually in that world of motion place as a kid. I remember that car and have a picture of it some place. It had a stick in the center to steer it if I recall. The rest is a blank, I think I was like 4.
Is it interesting that during much of the twentieth century the incentive to put up with the harsh socio-political realities on the ground was based on the promise of a bright future for you, and your children, whereas today, the shriven themes that have sunk even Star Trek's original model optimism, are of such low, dystopian a nature? It's more than interesting and significant.
At time index 14:40 love all the languages, many of them are slang languages like valley speak hahahaha...(stops laughing) WAIT what language?? What is that made up language that the computer will convert my English too?? In the mid 1980's my letter can be in....KLINGON??? From Star Trek??
I’m going to need an update on Mark. Did he get the sales numbers to Karen on time? Are his fish fed? Did he have to pay for his pizza?? Has he bought groceries yet????
Well, Hope you're sitting down. Mark did not get the sales numbers to Karen because the pizza delivery guy turned out to be Tony, who works for the guy that runs the numbers racket in town. Mark was supposed to get "the numbers" delivered at 10:00 pm to Tony's boss. As you can see he was goofing around still at 11:00. Sadly, Tony roughed him up pretty bad and he needed to be hospitalized, so his fish starved to death. Karen was fired for negligence,which she said was just fine with her as she was being payed only 80% of what the men were. She now runs a nice cupcake business. Addendum: Pizza co. Double charged for pizza. And Mark's refrigerator and computer were rentals and were repossessed for non-payment the next day.😜
@@mybachhertzbaud3074 Finally, I can sleep soundly knowing the full story. I'm thrilled for Karen success, finally doing what she loves, she deserves it. As for Mark.. well, hopefully got himself together. I wonder what he's up to these days..? 🤔
With luck I may be able to provide updates. I have been sending several "Alexa" devices to his address which he mistakenly assumes he earned as a valued Prime account holder. Unfortunately, so far, he has been doing little more with them than repeatedly turning on and off lights,requesting something called the "Gummy Bear" song and trying to get Alexa to date him. I will continue to monitor.😜
@@mybachhertzbaud3074 uh oh, I’m guessing Mark saw the movie “Her” and got some ideas. That’s good of you trying to track him down. In the meantime, I’m going to try really hard to resist looking up the gummy bear song bc I’m sure it’s something super annoying.

Just keep those bobby pins up and the babies away from the outlets. It'll be fine.

This channel's a work of art.
Sorry I missed it last night... Can't wait to watch tonight though. Falling asleep is so much better with sleepcore! Thanks, picsandportraits!
This is amazing! Love your videos, don't stop making them.
"Air conditioning" sounds like one of those overly complex, expensive, and superfluous inventions that will never catch on.

I like how you balanced GMs bullshit with some cool train stuff.

So cool thanks!
I wonder why sending audio messages over email never took off.

It's not the only ST reference Xerox makes: One of the destinations available as a destination selection is "NCC 1701."

Nice observation! Glad you didn't let us miss that interesting aspect. I was about to walk right by oblivious.
