Some other vids I've especially liked of what I've watched so far

I was blown away by "There Is No Ship" because it had to create a visual canon for the Steerswoman novels from scratch and I couldn't stop laughing from about the ten-second mark of Bugs Bunny and Daffy Duck's "Asshole."

"Asshole" was another favorite once I watched it! The editing is amazing and what a combination of source material and song.

Another one you should check out if you haven't already is the one about the bridge.

Oh, my God, it's a paean to storrowing.

I never heard of that before (though I obviously know the concept), and I am delighted to know it!

I was once in a moving van that had to make a last-minute wrench into an inconveniently located parking lot in order to avoid putting ourselves onto Storrow Drive and setting ourselves up to be a headline! Realistically I should have understood that the phenomenon would exist in other cities, but I had never heard of the Can Opener Bridge and was incredibly entertained.

I first became aware of it as a thing because I used to live a couple of blocks from a low railroad overpass in Illinois, which I would walk past to work, and one time I walked by when a semi had just can-openered itself despite all the warning signs. I thought about running home to get my camera (this was long before the days of ubiquitous cell cameras) then decided that it obviously wasn't worth it, but I still think of that now and then when I see video of it happening elsewhere!

Understandably!
