So if you are old enough you might remember Bart the General, a series of bizarre Simpsons parody animations that were making the rounds on the internet something over a decade ago.

Here's the first part (https://youtu.be/Y_6Kp7q5tbA)

These were made by some guy who goes by the name Famicon or something like that. Well anyways, I found that he still has a YT account where he uploads this insanity (https://www.youtube.com/user/famicon2008/) and this account has a link to this website (http://www.ghxyk2.com/) which has a list of videos and other media made by some people who are kinda well known within these circles like PilotRedSun (Garfielf), MagicDweedo, thecatamites (Space Funeral) etc.

Some of the stuff listed here goes all the way back to 2000 and it would appear that GHXKY2 is not only the name of the website hosting this list but also a creator? Here's "his" Youtube" channel (https://www.youtube.com/user/GHXYK2/) and here's one of his videos (https://youtu.be/nvgllKWZiCA) uploaded by someone else, pretty bizarre cocks.

Some people seem to mistake this famicon's guy cocks for the one made by cboyardee who might or might not have anything to do with this.

The GHXYK2 site I linked earlier has this "VIP services" link that takes you to a page where you can send your mail address, probably to contact some of these people? I don't know.

Saint, a somewhat obscure YT guy who plays bizarre little games and was slightly popular on /v/ a few years ago seems to be on it too.

I just wanted to know if anyone has some insight on these people and their "ironic" work.

I know about these guys. They all animate in this style called "skat" animation. It's tricky to define it, but once you've seen a few videos you'll be able to recognize skat from a mile away. This could be attributed to the distinct program most use to make their c0ntent. I'm not gonna say what the software is, just that it wasn't made for animating. It's dead and it's been that way for years. The glory days were early newgrounds and later a small revival with the Dilbert videos. There's a playlist on YouTube called literally "Skat Animation" that lists the biggest collection of these weird cartoons.

The major faces of this extremely obscure and irrelevant community are PRS (which is by far the most popular), CBoyardee, Swee Neezy, GHX…, and Famicon. Famicon isn't one guy, from what I know. It's a collective of various dudes who've contributed to the channel with the main guy being GHX. Dweeds and Saint aren't really a part of this. While everyone I mentioned (except CBoyardee, he went to work for some video game company and is keeping low, or so I've read) is part of some thin Twitter circle, Dweeds just makes games and some other art, possibly in the aforementioned program. Saint while being his own thread alone, doesn't have anything to do with the rest. He's mostly a discord guy that digs for lost gems. There are more out there, but these are the ones who get any attention no matter how small.

There's nothing really to talk about here. Everyone is secretive and doesn't reveal much publically. The reason why I know so much is because of an unhealthy amount of time I spent digging around this "community" out of curiosity. I personally love this kind of internet spelunking and I think some of them are very underrated.

Very informative, thank you for sharing.

Why is this here? Are these guys even lolcows? It seems more like they, like cboyardee, just like making ironic funny stuff that's absurd.
