just wanted to share some pics I took earlier when I was vibing in my room.
Half of my belongings are not easily accessible to me so I recently brought this little TV back home from storage, i’m keeping it here on the floor in my room temporarily and I was vibing with this little moment and took these pics :P just wanted to share :)
I can’t be the only one who feels like the actor for Conrad in the new Doctor Who episode Lucky Day looks so much like younger Paul McGann!
they’re not exactly identical obviously, but man there are so many little moments in the episode where I just straight up see Paul McGann lol. it’s in the eyes… and also the face shape, and some of his mannerisms. They could cast him as a young 8th Doctor in an 8th Doctor spin off series and I wouldn’t be **too** upset (I mean, it’s blasphemy to even consider an 8th Doctor spinoff WITHOUT Paul McGann, but unfortunately he isn’t getting any younger and if Paul were to return he’d likely only play an older 8th doctor wearing his 2013 NOTD outfit, whereas for me personally I would just LOVE to see a return of the 1996 TV Movie 8th Doctor’s costume design, it’s my favorite!) what do you guys think?
how much longer before “dubstep nostalgia” starts trending lol… I predict it’ll probably be soon ¯\_(ツ)_/¯ idk lol, drum and bass came back in 2021 (and has kind of stayed back since) and i’m not complaining, I adore Jungle / DnB, even if it’s spawned a new subgenre called “Breakcore” it’s still basically just Drum and Bass.
Are we going to have “Dubcore” next? or some kind of dubstep resurgence? haha
Here’s a question I have for the entire internet. I posted this originally on Reddit, several subreddits actually, and I’m too lazy to rewrite this just for YouTube, especially since I’m genuinely unsure if anyone will even see this lol, so I’m just going to copy and paste it here! Feel free to share your thoughts on this topic! :)
**Why do we add the extra “oh” when quoting others verbally?**
(I posted this on another subreddit and I’m posting it here to broaden its reach and see if i can diversify the input and responses I get to this question on different subs, I value feedback and I’m really curious about this topic)
So, to preface this I want to just make it clear that I’m a native speaker; I’ve spoken English my whole life. I came to this sub to ask this question because I didn’t know what sub was the best place to ask this. So as I said in the title, I’ve noticed for many years that when people quote others in conversation, they add an extra “oh” to the start of the quotation. This may very well have been a phenomenon that has been around for centuries or more, but I swear I only started to really notice it in like 2017. Again, I’m not saying this phenomenon started in 2017, I just became conscious of it then and I’ve even tried to stop myself from doing it too! So I’ll give you an example or two of how this phenomenon usually plays out:
*I confronted Jane about what she said to my friend and she was like “oh, I’m sorry you have such bad taste in friends!”*
*when I asked the store clerk if they had this in my size she said “oh, sorry no, but the store across the street has plus sizes”*
So these are some stupid random examples, sorry if they don’t make the most sense lol, but they perfectly demonstrate how the “oh” gets used in conversation. Typically I hear the “oh” immediately after “was like” as seen in the first example. Usually people quote someone as “and they were like, oh- [etc…]” or “and he/she was like, oh-“
I’ve noticed that a lot of the time it’s used in a kind of negative connotation, like usually when someone is upset with whoever they’re quoting, but it’s not exclusively used in a negative context. I’ve noticed that this phenomenon is not present in literature or film / television, or at least I haven’t found any examples yet, but if there are any examples in media I would imagine it would most likely show up in reality television or documentaries, or just anything that is intended to portray candid human interactions (I’m not suggesting reality TV is genuine, just that it’s likely to attempt to come off as candid so these kinds of things might appear there.) but I don’t watch reality TV, nor do I watch a lot of documentaries so I can’t confirm this with absolute certainty. Anyway, at least in professionally written and produced media I still haven’t noticed the “oh” phenomenon. I also want to add some more personal context here: I’m from the United States, specifically South Florida, and I’ve considered the possibility that this might be some kind of local colloquialism, but I very seriously doubt that the “oh” phenomenon is exclusive to my locale. I still thought that was worth mentioning though, in case I’m wrong.
I have some theories on it, I think it’s probably just a filler word like “uhm, erm, er, uh, like” etc. but it’s use case is what makes it interesting because unlike those other filler words, this is like a specialized filler word that almost serves to indicate “I’m quoting someone” when used in conversation. I find that so interesting! As I mentioned in the first paragraph, I’ve even caught MYSELF doing it before! It really just comes out so naturally, and I’ve never seen anyone around me question it or point it out. Though I also want to mention that once you notice it, you can’t really un-notice it lol, or at least I haven’t. It’s gotten to the point where it actually starts to annoy me after noticing it for so many years, which is why I try to stop myself from doing it, even though I know that’s just silly and not necessary. I don’t think the “oh” phenomenon is a bad thing, I just kind of find it a little annoying how prominent this invisible social contagion is IRL. I actually got quickly annoyed by it back in 2017 when I started to catch it in almost every conversation lol, I found it cringe for lack of better term, because I just kept questioning it each time I heard it. I guess I want to figure out how it started. Because if we really were quoting people verbatim with the added “oh” then it would make me ask “why do we English speakers seem to always start verbal responses to social interaction with the word OH?” but that’s not the case. In example 2, the store clerk most likely didn’t actually say *“oh, sorry no…”* in reality she probably just said “sorry no…”
Then there’s another thing, which is probably a clue as to how this whole thing started; and that is the fact that sometimes we DO start our verbal responses with “oh.” But that’s usually only in a few certain contexts, idk how to describe it. I guess to clarify what I’m saying here, I’ve caught the “oh phenomenon” used more in cases of people quoting others when I was there to witness the interaction they’re quoting and I KNOW the person being quoted didn’t start their response with “oh,” or even sometimes there is video or audio proof of the quotation and it can be observed that the person didn’t start with the “oh.”
I don’t know, this is something that has equal parts fascinated and annoyed me for a good amount of time and I’ve finally gotten around to posting this thought online! I don’t know how to search for this online tbh, I don’t know what specific words to search for about this topic to see if there are any studies or articles that mention this phenomenon so if anyone here has something that might shed some light on this, please feel free to share! Thanks for reading through this whole thing and I hope I’ve conveyed my ideas here as clearly as possible, it’s been hard to try and word this for me.
TLDR; in IRL conversations I’ve noticed for a long time that people add an unnecessary “oh” at the beginning of a quotation when talking about other people and what they said. I call it the “oh phenomenon” and I find it kind of fascinating and a little annoying. I’m just wondering how this phenomenon started; is it just a local colloquialism from where I’m from? Is it just some specialized filler word? Do people even notice that they’re adding the extra “oh” when quoting others? Are there any studies or articles on this topic? What do you think?
Hey guys, check it out! It’s been like 12 or 13 years since I last created a stop motion animation, and my closest friend inspired me to give it a go last night! Here’s “the bol” lol
The animation was uploaded to my secondary channel “457zim” because I created that channel all the way back in 2011 originally to share my animations at the time with my friends! So it’s kind of a “full circle moment” so to speak. It just felt appropriate to put it on that channel
I’ve been on a mental health journey over the past 2 years, and lately I’ve been healing my younger self; so now I’m releasing his music! This whole “album” is a collection of little songs I slapped together from 2017-2021 which for me was my senior year of high school and my first years of college :) I never released them before because quite frankly I never felt like any of them were to my standards (at the time) with regard to production value because they were ALL made using a Demo version of Reason, and it being a demo version I was never able to export the audio so each of these songs was recorded off of the Reason window sound output! Lately I’ve realized that I do actually want my talents to be recognized or at the very least shared, so I’ve decided to release this whole “album” of songs just as they are! The unfortunate downside to this of course is that they aren’t mastered properly, but I hope that my skills / talent as a musician can shine through these little “demos” (as I call them because I hope to someday in the future properly produce music and maybe revisit some if not most of these tracks!) Actually, two of the tracks in my album can be found right here on my channel! “Standby” - which is an interpolation of “Standby Lover” by Byrne and Barnes - is here on my channel, and has been ever since I first recorded it! As well as “Out There” having been featured in a video called “I found an old SD card from 2015…” so that’s how you know I’ve had all these little songs just sitting around collecting dust on my computer 😅 Oh! Also, those same two tracks and some more can also be found on my SoundCloud! But anyway, the best way to experience all this music I have to offer is by checking out my album! I’m particularly excited about two tracks: “On the Run” and “Ademia’s Lullaby.” These two tracks are very dear to me, as they are both intended to be used in the future as I work on my comic book series called “Amenthrus V.” For years I’ve been extremely over-protective of Amenthrus V and these two tracks for fear of my ideas being stolen online, but as I grow older I realize how ridiculous such a mentality is, and it’s mostly a product of my anxiety- which is a serious thing I struggle with. I’m so so so happy that those two tracks are now officially public and they can be enjoyed by people all over the world so please give them a listen! :) thank you very much if you’ve made it this far, and thank you for your support if you decide to check me out! My artist name is “Jake Hatfield” and you can find me on Apple Music, Pandora, Amazon Music, YouTube Music, and of course Spotify! Here’s the he Spotify link!! 😁😇
Edit: actually 3 of the tracks can be found here lol, I forgot that I used “~ High School ~” in my psychedelic color effect video from a few years back! :)

how much longer before “dubstep nostalgia” starts trending lol… I predict it’ll probably be soon ¯\_(ツ)_/¯ idk lol, drum and bass came back in 2021 (and has kind of stayed back since) and i’m not complaining, I adore Jungle / DnB, even if it’s spawned a new subgenre called “Breakcore” it’s still basically just Drum and Bass.
Are we going to have “Dubcore” next? or some kind of dubstep resurgence? haha

Hey, I dropped an album!!! :D
I’ve been on a mental health journey over the past 2 years, and lately I’ve been healing my younger self; so now I’m releasing his music!
This whole “album” is a collection of little songs I slapped together from 2017-2021 which for me was my senior year of high school and my first years of college :) I never released them before because quite frankly I never felt like any of them were to my standards (at the time) with regard to production value because they were ALL made using a Demo version of Reason, and it being a demo version I was never able to export the audio so each of these songs was recorded off of the Reason window sound output!
