Ah, XiaoXiao. Under the amazingly named `E:\Storage\Old\Fun\old\XiaoXiao` I have fight (xiaoxiao1).avi, XiaoXiao_City_Plaza.swf, and xiaoxiao2.swf - xiaoxiao9.swf


I'm jealous. My files from those days did not survive; too many hard drive failures and lost or destroyed CDs.

This is particularly sad to me because I dabbled in Flash animation too back then, since I was in art school at the time. None of my creations survived. Some were even acceptable work.


Archive.org has a lot of the old flash stuff, including Xiao Xiao.


Sure, but the files I'm talking about were never online.


Ah, that sucks :( Stuff I "created" is still saved, but it’s mostly angsty teenager poems.


Send us a file listing for `fun' :)


That has a *lot* of random images I downloaded. From street art, over those "priceless" memes people used to make. All in

The videos directly there are a bunch of internet famous things, some of them in German:

Basshunter_Boten_Anna_German.avi, PatchMeUpMusicVideoByRootKit-GeekVideo.avi, trafo-entkopplung.avi, wow_forporn.avi, fainting goats.flv, gangbang.flv, Gruftis1989.flv, hape kerkeling.flv, HumanCamera.flv, Wii.vs.PS3.flv, der_stack.m4v, hacker_packen_aus.m4v, 3dshot.mov, ACUVUE_Hearts_on_Fire.mov, AtheistenOnly - JesusVideo.mov, fsm-spotting.mpg, Stroh.flv.MPG, tetris.mpg, test.swf, theresheis.swf, blowdarts.wmv, einsteinthebird.wmv, FLURL-dot-com-30292-Mafia.wmv, FLURL-dot-com-50776-korn_mosh.wmv, FLURL-dot-com-51227-pop.wmv, getalife.wmv, hamburgertrick.wmv, insane.wmv, mariopiano.wmv, nintendochoir.wmv, SOAD_gremlins.wmv, supersoakerflamethrower.wmv, theglasstrick.wmv, TRANIX.NET-11-String-Bass.wmv

"gangbang.flv" is some French movie student project "Revenge of the Gangbang Zombies", not actual porn ;)

Is the first one the "Anna is a bot" song?

I had actually built a bot named Anna to trick friends on IRC (with AIML) so when I came upon the song it felt hilarious.


Yup: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1XK5-n4rR7Q


It wasn't until the mention of "City_Plaza.swf" that memories finally came flooding back.
