I still remember "Taco teh wodoner dog" and a hilariously stupid flash animation with a catchy jingle called "Inspectar Urine". Alas... even though I found the page, I'm not set up to play flash animations right now. I'm not sure if Taco was Lowtax though, or someone else.
taoc teh wodner douhg was someone else.



A really really old video was The Big Day. Lowtax and I'm guessing some SoCal goons or Planetquake people were sitting around an office lounge, saying stuff like "It's the BIG DAY" and "I can't believe it's the BIG DAY" and this was cut with scenes of some punk rock looking dude in combat boots running through alleys. It all ended with pick rock dude, forums user bitter_HATE, running into the office and quickly beating up everyone.

Dumb silly humor and the joke is just "They got beat up on THE BIG DAY lol"

Here's a thing, apparently a withered shell of PlanetQuake still exists, and they still have Lowtax's old review of the Doom comic book. Back in the day PlanetQuake is why I followed him to SA.

Also, I still think "Hip Hop Operating System" any time I see mention of Linux.

As much as I don't wanna think about Lowtax and Shmorky I went through my teens watching the Flash Tub cartoons and, while flashplayer was on the chopping block, I ripped a bunch of their .SWFs from their pages to be converted into mp4s on my hard drive. Only the ones I really liked though.

I guess it's like the guilt that comes with watching Ren and Stimpy, but you can just pretend it was all Billy West.

I honestly liked the stuff he did with Shmorky like the flash tub and the gaming garbage stuff like dontrel dolphin, back when they worked well together and neither had gone off the deep end or at least could hold it together well enough in front of the camera. I liked them both better when all I knew about them was the funny stuff they made and knew nothing about their personal lives.

I still recall his Completely Libelous Review of Universal Combat with fondness, not so much for the article itself but for how he reacted to Derek Smart (Derek Smart Derek Smart).

My favourite Flash Tub was The Very Very Haunted House

The Hopkin Green Frog flash thing with the old timey detective was also fantastic, not sure that was Flash Tub though or whether Lowtax was even involved

RIP to the guy who died, he did some good things and some bad things, and the good things don't outweigh the bad things, but they exist all the same
