if you havent go to http://www.redvsblue.com and watch the movies they got there under blood gulch chronicles. They are the funniest things I have ever seen and since I havent shared for a while here I thought I would show you all where I have been.

What does Dork mean?

Posted by John Lasher (Member # 968) on 08-09-2003, 11:54 PM:

I believe the correct spelling is with a C at the end, and it means a whale's naughty bits.

Dork = nerd = goofball = silly person
Dork (literal) = penis

What does that have to do with the Red vs Blue videos?

Posted by Phil Hill (Member # 371) on 08-10-2003, 04:44 AM:

Other Urban meanings....

Dork = Someone who farts in the bathtub and then breaks the bubbles to get the "drift".

Dork = Someone who goes around smelling bicycle seats.

Ummmm, Errrr, Mike, I think she is making a reference to the person that posted just above her post. [evil]

>>> Phil

I know that, Phil, I was just trying to figure out what she meant. Was it her attempt at being funny?
Actually, I know what she meant, I think. Since this series of videos is based on the graphics engine of the video game "Halo", she probably meant to say that it is a thing which video game and computer freaks like.
I, however, play rarely at the computer or at video game consoles, and I still liked these videos very much.
It is a very clever idea to use an existing program to make videos. The texts are very funny and there are many threads in the story which unfolds in the course of several episodes, and the threads come and go all the time.
In short, it is a very cleverly made and intelligent series of short movies.
Probably the intelligent part is where Rachel`s perception was overchallenged.

WOW. If a thread could take a right-angle turn, this would be it! [Big Grin]

Posted by Michael Schaffer (Member # 1204) on 08-10-2003, 05:34 AM:

Indeed, but I bent it back in the right direction.
You should really check these videos out. Also, the Apple commercial parody. It is very refreshing to see what some intelligent and creative people can do with how little technical means.

I took it to mean Christopher was a "dork" for mentioning the site. Okay, to get back on-topic, I guess I'll have to check that link. Never heard of this stuff.

[edit - after visiting link] Ooooh-kay.

Posted by Rachel Gilardi (Member # 1016) on 08-10-2003, 08:20 PM:

I did mean it to say Chris is a dork! [Smile]

He's one of my friends from back home...where we all were dorks...or geeks depending on perception. [Big Grin]

Just downloaded Episode 15. I have decided to sign up as a $10 sponsor to support the good work.
Wasn`t there a guy some time ago who shot a 10 minute short based on Star Wars characters, posted it on the net and then even got hired for some directing work?
