Here's 132 episodes of "Weebl and Bob" in the original Flash format. Nearly all work. The ones that don't are left up for completeness but the thumbnails are accurate in those cases. I expect them to work over time as Ruffle updates.

It will be interesting in the next few weeks to see what happens with these sorts of items, where you can get DVD versions but the original flashes are all going to die. If I'm contacted by Weebl to remove them, then they'll all go down, of course.
Weebl has a patreon by the way: patreon.com/mrweebl

I didn't like my Fiverr username and to change it, you have to completely close your account. That's pretty chonky
Ha, it gets better. Because I closed my account, I can no longer use the credentials (google) to make the replacement account. The e-mail is literally dead to them.
This all has a very strong feeling of "find the server directives that do this username stuff, track it to a URL being called, and in a subdirectory called /extra/ is "thing-written-by-cameron-before-he-left dot pl"

I'm going to say the same except it was September 2010 and it was Jet Blue All-You-Can-Jet

I can't imagine I will experience another deal like that in my lifetime
I flew 30 times in one month for $700, people.
Oh, now I'm getting people telling me that's horrible. Well, you see, I'd just finished a movie (GET LAMP) and when I got this deal, I said "If you can put me up somewhere, and you are near an airport that Jet Blue flies, I will fly to you during the month and show my film."

Going to talk about people dying, skip thead if not wanted
There's a lot of discussion going through the twitters right now about Thanksgiving and a sort of horror and surprise that people are under the impression Thanksgiving is worth dying for OR that going to Thanksgiving is Freedom or that people are not aware of the risks involved.
For what it's worth, my various lines of work over the many years have put me in touch with a lot of footage of people dying, especially in weird situations (because that's what gets passed around the most). I've also handled/read a LOT of writing about unusual situations. A lot.

While I'm temporarily thinking about my whole home construction side, there's a documentary I saw called Stone Barn Castle: imdb.com/title/tt451271…

The real title should be "Adrien Brody Doesn't Know How To Hire a General Contractor".
It goes on for something like a year and quarter, he buys a big nutty house from a family, that used to be a tourist attraction, and remakes it so he can live in it. And he keeps going off to make movies, do other things, and it's clear he has no general contractor, at all.
And so most of the movie's drama is just "The contractors did THIS to the house/made THIS choice" and yeah, that's what they do when there's no general contractor. And then he mentions he didn't expect X or Y and YEAH THE GENERAL CONTRACTOR WOULD HAVE RESEARCHED AND PRESENTED.

Most of this I get (brother's a landscaper) except air conditioner. All I can come up with is house is (like most moderns) too big for the plot, and there's no room on the left side of the house to put the air conditioner, or putting it on the left would be too near a neighbor.
Someone pointed out in replies it might be a backup generator, not an air conditioner; still stands - you would normally want this on the side or in back but I bet the plot is insanely small and there's no other room.
From shot of back of the house, it's clear the most obvious place for this large item is where that red umbrella is on the left there. But someone didn't talk to someone and here we are.

I know, the inside is terrible with stuff but I don't care about contents here.
