Imagine that it’s 2005 and your parents are arguing at full volume and your iDog is just fuckin jammin to the beat of your parents’ marriage falling apart.
One of my core memories was getting an iDog as a birthday gift as a snotty little kid, and try as I might to get it to dance to whatever music I had and my dad’s music it just sat there and chilled, but by GOD when my mom and dad started yelling at each other over Christmas break it started BOPPIN
I had this little Sega dog as a kid I got at a yard sale. It would bark and wag its tail whenever my mom was screaming at my dad. That shit is trapped in my head forever. Whenever I hear an argument, that bit-crushed dog bark plays in my brain.
THANKS FOR THE SHOUTOUT MATE!! I'm so glad you liked my i-Dog video. you're a huge inspiration - been watching since 2019 and I even referenced you in my most recent video! I'd love to get in touch, perhaps I can send some weird early 2000s goodies your way as well 👀
I had the generic white iDog when I was 6, but I poked the speaker out with a thumb tack for some dumb reason. :( The mike still worked though. I knew that the AA was called an LR6, cos I love science/engineering.
Dankpods, next April fools, you should say the ol’ “m8 this packaging is collectible, gotta super careful opening this” then proceed to spend the rest of the video painstakingly removing the packaging without damaging it
Hey, Dank, a pro strat to open up those packages: use a manual can opener. The kind where you turn the crank to cut the can open. It works really well on blister packaging too.
I really loved my I-dog as a kid despite knowing how trash it was. It was pretty indestructible surprisingly enough, so I was able to keep it for a long time and get some good use out of it. I ended up eventually getting rid of it though because it started to lose its charm and also it’s mobility, and I was getting a bit too old for it. Loved the vid, very honest and really humorous too
I kinda miss the time when every phone wasn't the same black featureless slab of glass. And I get why they are doing this nowadays, but still, originality is gone.
