Wasn't "aphid" one of the random tags on a LG15 video? Maybe this person took their name from that, or maybe they are somehow tied in?
Indeed it was. I went to the sticky on the tag board to find
zeutheir:
Aphids
These are those little bugs that feed on the underside of leaves...or Master Shake after being beaten in a quiz night tournament.
MasterShake being a character on Aqua Teen Hunger Force...a show on Adult Swim.

*stab in the dark*
Operation Aphid: Extreme Deforestation Devision
...or just the first part as a "cool" handleish thing?

OK, you lost me (I'm new remember). I am not a shill. I can even send you a link to an article I wrote about the subject. And I am not suggesting an "official link" -- more someone who is following the whole saga and took their name from a tag that was used. And no, I can't tell you the song or "hook you up." Geez, what does a person have to do to prove they are genuine around here? Me thinks the suspicion has gotten out of hand.

Didn't you notice guys? The track in the background (music) appears to be something backwards
I don't have the software to switch it around, however. Could one of you be so kind as to either point me in the right direction of such software (free please, I'm a poor college student), or look into this for all of us? Because it's killing me, and I'm sure others would be curious as well.

I personally will attest to grellen not being a shill now

Thanks, covedweller. Appreciate the backup.
One more thought -- "Op" could refer to "optical" -- an optical aphid? One who devours images? Just free associating here...

Another thought -- "Op" could refer to "opinion" as in the Op/Ed columns in newspapers. Not sure that's helpful but just wanted to throw it out there.

What's with that video looking EXACTLY like an Adult Swim bump?
I mean, exact same font and everything.

AHH did anybody notice that for awhile there was a line at the top of the description that read "Did Hannah do what Hannah said" or something odd like that? it struck me for obvious reasons, so i decided to see if anybody was talking about it on this board, but by the time i finished and went to find the direct quote again to point it out, IT WAS GONE!
i swear i'm not makin this shit up.
any ideas?? biblical reference? reference to me? haha

and that whole adult swim connection seems to point to this being a fan creation. cuz how random... but those folks at AS are pretty clever people. i'm an AS expert (as in i watch way too much) and i'll b around if you guys need me.

it's unlikely that it's an AS connection -- that is a popular font, and text videos are popular on YouTube.
although didn't Bree say she was an AS fan? lol.
I've seen that page look different refreshing it on YT. server issue?

If this was all connected to Adult Swim I would jizz myself.
