I don't know what to call this sort of thing, but it's so common online. It's like oh, that's.... sort of neat I guess, but 90% of the appeal is in how tedious and long it must have taken. Like I don't want to just call it silly and a waste of time. But it's like wow you made the largest stack of popsicle sticks ever... cool?

You know, a FRIEND of mine did that when his dog got stuck in a lake last winter. Worked great until he grabbed the dog's collar and pulled it up on the ice. Then the ice gave way and he went into the drink. Which was only about 2' deep, as it turns out. But as he was laying on the ice instead of standing, he went fully in instead of you know just getting his legs wet.

I personally have no direct knowledge of any of this.

I feel like this is in direct response to the last post where people got pedantic on the definition of a script and if it was actually done in it's entirety.

Someday when I have money (and someone to commission one of these for), it'll be a great gift. And I hope it's the goonies
