20 Thoughts I Had While Re-Watching 'What Does The Fox Say?'

This music video might have gotten even weirder the longer I went without watching it.

20 Thoughts I Had While Re-Watching 'What Does The Fox Say?'

Just a few days under three years ago, in a much simpler time, a video was gaining popularity and circulating the internet with rapidly gaining frequency. So many words can be attributed to the viral video and its corresponding soundtrack: strange, confusing, funny, shocking; but one thing is for certain, no one will forget the first time they watched "The Fox (What Does The Fox Say?)".

For me, it was an ordinary day of my senior year, after classes had ended, but before musical rehearsal had started and students had a habit of playing music videos on the classroom projector. On the day in question, my attention was directed toward this unusual video, this unique mix of shouting and costuming; I had never seen anything quite like it before. Tonight, I am revisiting that moment and documenting it, all for you, the readers.

1. Everyone is standing around in animal costumes, but like it looks like a fun party.

2. Why isn't the singer in a costume? Is this some Gatsby situation where he throws the party just to watch his guests?

3. Is this a children's song? This is all information I'm aware of.

4. Does an elephant really 'toot'? Would we trivialize them that much?

5. Oh, now he's in costume and he's a fox, makes sense.

6. Don't foxes bark? Because they're related to dogs?

7. Why would you assume that a fox would make ANY of these insane sounds?

8. Who is this old man? What story is he reading this poor child?

9. Why are the lyrics across the bottom of the screen? It's not like we'll recognize this gibberish.

10. "Like an angel in disguise"? They have a weird relationship with foxes.

11. TBH their singing voices aren't terrible.

12. Why does this set look like the opening of the Twilight movie?

13. Omg they're floating...but it's unclear why. Or how?

14. This seems like a song that a middle schooler wrote for a science project.

15. THE FOX IS DANCING

16. WE KNOW ITS SOUND

17. And also this fox has some serious moves.

18. Aw, he has vanished into the forest again. Goodbye, fox.

19. This party got wild. Lasted until the morning and everything.

20. Wow, 2013 was a weird year.

I strongly recommend re-watching this one for yourself and taking a trip back to yesteryear. But, I warned you, it's pretty weird.

In honor of Mother’s Day, I have been thinking of all the things my mom does for my family and me. Although I couldn’t write nearly all of them, here are a few things that moms do for us.

Thank You on wooden blocks

1. Thank you for being the one I can always count on to be honest.

A true friend will tell you if the shirt is ugly, or at least ask to borrow it and "accidentally" burn it.

2. Thank you for accepting me for who I am.

A best friend will love you regardless of the stale french fries you left on the floor of your car, or when you had lice in 8th grade and no one wanted to talk to you.

Do as I say, not as I do.

Your eyes widen in horror as you stare at your phone. Beads of sweat begin to saturate your palm as your fingers tremble in fear. The illuminated screen reads, "Missed Call: Mom."

Growing up with strict parents, you learn that a few things go unsaid. Manners are everything. Never talk back. Do as you're told without question. Most importantly, you develop a system and catch on to these quirks that strict parents have so that you can play their game and do what you want.

"Friends" maybe didn’t have everything right or realistic all the time, but they did have enough episodes to create countless reaction GIFs and enough awesomeness to create, well, the legacy they did. Something else that is timeless, a little rough, but memorable? Living away from the comforts of home. Whether you have an apartment, a dorm, your first house, or some sort of residence that is not the house you grew up in, I’m sure you can relate to most of these!
