Fanboy Admission and Genetics
I was a super nerd growing up (still am).
All I wanted to do was watch cartoons and draw 'em.
I loved cartoons that were based on personalities - iconic characters, even if they weren't fully animated.
I was especially obsessed with the Flintstones and not only drew them but acted out stories about them in the back yard with my neighbors, Jeff and Phil. I actually got in trouble for

Maintain Guts
By the way I have an idea on how to share some of these animation clips with you guys
to make some user-generated mashups of silly scenes to music lines
any music you like
all the animation is timed to beats and even the dialogue is rhythmic - it sounds as bouncy backwards as forwards
You could make some fun loops I'll bet
maybe I'll start a youtube channel if anyone's
