White Ninja is a blast from the past! I'm sure I had a bunch of favorites, but this one jumps out at me:

TIL barbecue can be spelled with a Q

[–] ExLisper@lemmy.curiana.net 10 points 2 weeks ago

Off topic but barbecue comes from Spanish 'barbacoa' which comes from Taíno language used in Caribbean. Natives there were eating grilled meat with spices. The Spanish took this recipe back to the old continent and it spread.

The common American abbreviation is BBQ.

I thought the Q was because of the pronunciation (barbe-queue)

Sometimes I hear Bs as Rs.

As someone who grew up in an area and family with a strong bbq culture, im surprised it can be spelled with a 'c' lmao

That just looks wrong imo

What the fuck did I just watch!!!! That was a horrifying animation from a truly deranged mind. You'd better empty the grease trap or I will haunt this grill!!

The most memorable videos are the ones you can't forget if you wanted to

TBH I haven't seen (or sought) White Ninja in years, beyond that one "c'mon, do something" poking with a stick meme that escaped into the wild.

[–] ExLisper@lemmy.curiana.net 2 points 2 weeks ago

I'm sure lots of people remember it and go back to it regularly. Like... dozens!

Wait is this the guy that did the one of the guy with a stick saying "cmon do something"?

[–] ExLisper@lemmy.curiana.net 8 points 2 weeks ago (1 children)

Yes, the "guy" with a stick is White Ninja himself.
