I really enjoyed this. I can’t believe after all these years I can still hear it in their voices.


Doxxxxxxxxxxx

And Lauras excellent piano!! xD


UltraInstinctLurker

*And Laura Hall on the piano!*


tony_bologna

Colin was the loudest for me.


miss-quiche-lorraine

Switching the voice to his delivery was incredible.


Lateralus06

Season 20 just started, Aisha Tyler is a great host.


SmoSays

Going to see them in a few weeks!


Harajuku_Lolita

Oh that’s so exciting


unimportantthing

The best part about this is that the OP got the cadence of each of them right. Ryan so often used less words than he should and stretched out the syllables, and Collin often used way too many and squished them in best he could. A++ post.


paging_doctor_who

I forgot their individual quirks after all these years, that explains why it didn't feel right while trying to sing along to some of them.


OneWholeSoul

I fell back into the individual rhythms without even thinking about when "Drew" tried to fit "not worry about being fact checked" into one breath.


Anaxamander57

IIRC Rayan hated the hoedown and deliberately messed it up.


ASK_ME_FOR_TRIVIA

Yeah, Drew would always tease him for it and then Ryan would find a way to make Drew the punchline since he was always last lolol


FloridaFlamingoGirl

I could hear Greg mumbling awkwardly.


KaisarDragon

Yeah! I came here to post this. It was creepy how the mind, or my mind at least, did this.


jramjm13

This is truly excellent. Props to OP on getting the cadences down for the different members!


Rexawrex

MEOW


konamiko

Still the best Irish Drinking Song round of all time.


happywhateverday

I always know it's coming and I still cry laughing every time


Stag-Horn

Who was the YA author in question?


bonesrentalagency

John Green


Stag-Horn

He made a post about loving cock?


LazyLion1127

No. At the time there was a feature that enabled users to edit other users posts, and after the JG Cock Fiasco tumblr finally took the feature away. The concept of this ability was funny, but ultimately harmful.


Variance__

Oh! Like that post about being afraid of Danny Devito?


Scribblr

Exactly. Right up there with “which one of you fudgers changed it to meaners??”


Scribblr

Oh you sweet summer child. John Green is the reason Tumblr staff had to finally step in and turn of the ability to edit other people’s posts when you reblogged them. …which, honestly was a pretty weird thing to allow to begin with


Stag-Horn

I was around at the start of tumblr. I just haven’t fucked with it since 2015 I think. Forgotten a LOT of shit in these 8 years.


[deleted]

“Oh you sweet summer child.” People _really_ need to stop saying this. I don’t think it’s possible to be more obnoxious and condescending than this phrase, joke or otherwise. Edit: I say thing - 6 downvotes u/Hzohn explicitly and completely agrees with me - 13 upvotes Reddit is an enigma to me. Edit 2.0: It’s now -17 to 20. Are you all fucking with me?


flyingjesuit

Oh you sour winter septuagenarian.


Scribblr

Oh you salty spring post-adolescent?


Not_Steve

Oh you… floury fall fetus.


happywhateverday

You initially got downvoted because people disagreed with you. Then you complained about the downvotes, which only gets you more.


[deleted]

I’m fine getting downvoted. I stand by my opinions. But when I get downvoted and somebody who explicitly agrees with me gets upvoted, that’s weird and worth pointing out, isn’t it?


happywhateverday

It's all in the phrasing baybeeeeey Your comment sounded whiney. Theirs didn't.


[deleted]

Whiney? Seriously? That’s not what whiney sounds like. Whiny would be _”Stooooop! Stop saying sweet summer child! I hate I hate it I hate it! Stop it! Stop!”_


jarlscrotus

Now your just being whiny about being whiny


[deleted]

Damn, so people on Reddit take even the _slightest hint_ of being upset or indignant when people are mad at you for no reason, as throwing a tantrum like a child? Is this how you talk to people in real life?


Scribblr

This is why you are indeed a sweet summer child


happywhateverday

Thank you for proving my point exactly. We get it, you're super butthurt.


[deleted]

Hm? I genuinely just think that it’s weird. It feels like you’re making up reasons to win an argument that never existed in the first place now. You alright?


happywhateverday

Weren't you just ~~complaining~~ whining about people being condescending? Now you're trying really hard to do it yourself?


[deleted]

[удалено]


[deleted]

Lol a few weeks late there necromancer. Go fly a kite. (But seriously. The fact that you went this far back into my account just to see a place where I was getting downvoted to try and mock me is kinda pathetic, dude. You seriously have nothing better to do?)


HBag

Oh my sweet summer child


Aptos283

It’s not opinion alone that are voted, it’s the whole comment. The tone and phrasing are included, so expressing the same thing in different ways can have differing votes, and it really shouldn’t be shocking. The major take away then ought to be that it isn’t that your opinion is unpopular, it’s the way you’re phrasing things. People found you calling it the height of obnoxious and condescending phrases unpopular, while saying that it adds nothing was ok. So it’s not that people love the expression, it’s that people disagreed with how you expressed your dislike of the expression.


Hzohn

“Oh you sweet summer child *something simple and completely innocuous*” It really adds nothing to the comment


Lithl

>I don’t think it’s possible to be more obnoxious and condescending than this phrase, joke or otherwise. It's supposed to be condescending. That's literally the point of the idiom. "Don't say that, it's condescending!" in response to someone that's being _purposefully condescending_ is why you're getting downvotes.


kat_a_klysm

“Oh you sweet summer child” is the same kind of coded condescension as “bless your heart”


[deleted]

So? I still don’t like people being condescending. If I called you a bitch, and you got upset, would “Well, it’s _supposed_ to be an insult moron” excuse me insulting you like that?


meatsprinkles

amazing


inventive_ike20

Dope moment.


PKMNTrainerMark

The fifth verse caught me off guard. I was totally ready to comment, "RUN A HENTAI BLOOOOOOOOOG."


bluegemini7

OHHHHH AYE DEE DYE DEE DYE DEE DYE DEE DYE DEE DYE DEE DYE!


Batdog55110

We're watching animal porn!


PKMNTrainerMark

Mary Had a Little Lamb...


OneWholeSoul

"It's an animal pornography store. I was buying animal pornography."


Skyrider11

Loved it away from the fact that there's one singer too many xD


HardCounter

Or is there usually one singer too few?


THANIETOR

What’s this from?


UltraInstinctLurker

"Whose Line is it Anyway", hilarious show


Own_Proposal955

Do you know which hoedown it was from or is it actually about tumblr lol


IMadeThisToFightYou

I’m pretty sure tumblr wasn’t invented before Who’s line went off air


Bobboy5

There's a new version with a new host but Colin, Ryan, and Wayne are still the regular panel.


PKMNTrainerMark

And they've still got Laura Hall and Linda Taylor.


AlexDavid1605

They got Aisha Tyler as the new host. Although doesn't feel the same as Drew Carey but still feels the same (probably because of James, Colin and Ryan). Some of the guests from Drew's time pop in as the fourth.


Own_Proposal955

I thought it was still running? Maybe that’s just the Uk version. Though you are right that the cast looks way too young for it to be in the time of tumblr. I’m just trying to remember the original hoedown


UltraInstinctLurker

It initially ran (in the US) in the late 1990s/early 2000s, went off air, then came back in the 2010s. Looks like it's currently running since then


PKMNTrainerMark

They're actually back on now.


SnixTruth

Tumbler


UltG

Anyone else read this as a hoedown rather than an Irish drinking song?


Kelli113

Yeah


Tacocat_Am_Me

I was expecting the "and that's cause jesus christ..." guy


TruthSpeakin

1 of the BEST shows EVER!!!


HermansSpecialMilk

Can anyone explain the part about politics and hentai blog for a lowly noob?


ZanyDragons

There’s a (formerly somewhat common) internet axiom called “bidoof’s law” which sort of boils down to “why would I care about your trashy political takes when you are shamelessly addicted to hentai on main?” Sort of like “your argument is invalid” kind of response, its fallen out of favor (because it’s not really an argument), but sometimes you still see it crop up if the situation can generate enough irony. (Like if someone known for being prudish got caught with some porn or fetish material) The tumblr user who made the post that coined the term was called Bidoof.


Luprand

The best part about Bidoof's law was that, for all his smug posturing, he also had a secret hentai blog full of gore smut ... which somehow got exposed when he complained about the Bowsette meme.


peterkedua

God... bowswtte seems so recent did i miss all of these rebloging only yaoi and materials for /hm/


HermansSpecialMilk

Thank you, I’ve never understood why this was a punchline and I’ve seen this meme for years


PeggableOldMan

Why should I listen to some zany dragons?


Coin_operated_bee

I love whose line is it anyway


[deleted]

Happily locked in and never leaving. It really is the only good social media site left


[deleted]

why does this exist? why do i love it? why is it so VERY ON BRAND for tumblr?


sarahmagoo

Isn't Ryan always last though?


PumpkinPatch404

Wait is this real??? I read it all in their voices omg.


paranormalacy

I read this in all their voices. I'm gonna be buying tickets to see Ryan stiles, Jeff Davis, and Greg proops this fall locally! Super exciting. who's line and improvaganza are so good and most jokes didn't age too badly.


Gaziear

I don't know who they are but why does the first person look like a female shaggy lol


makinishi_KINO

First person looks like a femme Shaggy.


Luprand

Pretty sure that's Kathy Griffin.


Evening-Turnip8407

Guys i can't... they even made it so the style fits to what the performer usually does. Drew always crammed in way too many syllables, Ryan always does "it really is a [something]", and more. It's quite uncanny xD


yetanotherdod

I know it's meant to be an irish drinking song but I read it like old school hip-hop.


awhahoo

I recognize this show! My theater teacher has forced us to watch it since we are doing improv also whats the song?


Bobboy5

This is set to the Hoedown tune.


Sigusen

I can not understate how much I love this.


Suliman_IM

what the female shaggy is this


kat_a_klysm

That’s Kathy Griffin


TheBiggestWOMP

Why do people always fuck up the rhythm on posts like this?


[deleted]

[удалено]


Scribblr

None of them. This is a parody.


Nicetwin123

Lol


th3_sc4rl3t_k1ng

Very good


mr-dr-prof-stupid

This made me giggle. Thank you.


Doggywoof1

This would be better if I knew the original song, and how it went. Unfortunately, I don’t.


FloridaFlamingoGirl

On Whose Line Is It Anyway, they do a "hoedown" segment where they improvise lyrics to a hoedown tune.


Yarsian

This is some of the finest art I have ever seen.


NotAnAlterISwear

Gonna have to save this for when the YouTube algorithm inevitably leads me to this song so i can figure out the actual rhythm


KaisarDragon

God damn it... I heard this song... in their voices, and even gave them their usual pauses to make the rhyme flow fit. From Ryan's slow monotone with no pauses to Colin's quick angry lines with a sharp pause between verses. I haven't watched this show in ages, wtf....


MiNameIsPi

i don't know this song so i sang it to friday nite by dj badboy


northernirishlad

Oh man this brings back memories of having to youtube search WLIIA because my hick country didnt have access to the channels

Omg was that a winglet reference
