HELLO EVERYBODYY, if you like the frog profile picture from 6:32 and want more information about it, the youtuber Bjiru made an entire video about it!!!! check it out XD: ua-cam.com/video/LS4yz39xxfo/v-deo.html
My dad was the palm tree, my mom was the butterfly, I was the dog, and my brother was the rubberduck on windows xp. Crazy how nostalgic these crushed images are.
15:18 Wait, it…it IS?! You’re telling me all this time as a little kid thinking ‘omg it’s the Texas tornado that’s our roller coaster’ I was RIGHT?!? I had no idea, I live in the area that’s from, Wonderland amusement park in Amarillo. Hell, the place was my first job. Never got to work that ride specifically myself, and unfortunately I can’t recall the time before they repainted the coaster to be red+blue opposed to white. I’ve rode that thing countless times, though. That profile picture was always close to my heart when I was younger, and it’s kind of crazy to know that it was taken just a couple miles away from me and used so frequently.
That "metal doohickey" is a jack, used for a game called jacks. It's not just one of those old timey games your grandparents played either, there's depictions of it inside the Pyramids in Egypt and possibly a prehistoric cave painting. It used to be played using the ankle bones of sheep and goats. The spinner thing is a gyroscope. It's like a top, but you can also balance it on its tip completely sideways and it won't fall.
Man that close-up flower gave me an amount of nostalgia I didn't even know was achievable. I literally had to pause the video and walk away from the computer for a couple of seconds to sit and think about it.
6:08 new part of the RUBBER DUCKY BACKSTORY : She meets the BOSS froggy :) and (PLOT TWIST)the Frog is her CHILDHOOD FRIEND 😱. So the frog helps her with this hard job :) the end
16:49 this doohickey is called a jack. They’re part of a game where you bounce a ball and try to grab as many jacks before the balls hits the ground. Even with that context it could never surpass toy robot!
15:46 i remember setting our family computer backround to this for the longest time, im fascinated by this weird little baby creature. i wanna know what it is and who made it so bad (im about to look it up lol). this video was so nostalgic hell yeah edit: it was made by gabriel h fermanelli based on a sketch by tomas dieguez and its named punga(? i cant tell if punga is a person or a company or a place or the name of the character or what) and according to the wiki the background is called rain of heroes. i love it so much, top tier
What I really love about everything from Windows XP to Windows 7 is the whole nature theme or everyday life for most of the backgrounds or profile pictures. They all feel so calm and relaxing same with the glossy backgrounds too, everything has this simple yet comforting feeling that reminds me of summer maybe it's just the feeling of nostalgic but I do miss little things like these when it comes to Windows as a whole. The backgrounds, pfp, games, other media like pictures, videos and music being already a default on when you first get them.
Yeahhh exactly, windows actually tried to have its own theme. Windows 10 is so boring, atleast windows 11 has a bit more pastel-abstract goin on i guess
Polygon i need 55 BURGERS 55 FRIES 55 TACOS 55 PIES 55 COKES 100 TATER TOTS 100 PIZZA 100 TENDERS 100 MEATBALLS 100 COFFEES 55 WINGS 55 SHAKES 55 PANCAKES 55 PASTAS 55 PASTAS AND 155 TATERS (also please let me view your basement i have NOT been invited)
I remember me and my brother beefing over the profile picture because our parents gave us an ultimatum to have a shared account on our first PC because they just couldn't be bothered to make us two and we were too lazy to make our own.....so it was literally war time whenever one of us used the PC after the other. I loved the astronaut and my brother always chose the skateboarder if anyone wanted to know over which two we fought over the most.
Jsyk the "metal doohickey" is a jacks from the game Jacks! It's a really old game I played (badly) as a little kid. Basically you have a container full of jacks and a small rubber ball, you kneel and spread all the jacks on the floor/ground, then you bounce the ball and try to pick up as many jacks as you can before the ball hits the ground again. Very simple but fun in the right setting - you might it c:
I love old computers, There’s just something about looking at an old computer that makes me want to have one. Frutiger aero and old pfps are just absolutely immaculate, Frutiger aero is a style that truly captures the point of joy and happiness in someone’s life. Which is why I always have a frutiger aero on my current computer, I even have one on my phone!
These metal walls creak. A masquerade of divinity. A sound in the distance? No. Only a scream. No light no sound. No memory. Fate does not feed the children to the dogs. We do. I feel so silly! :P
as a dark purple orb with green stripes (i live in australia) im glad we're getting some representation edit: i am no longer in australia what is this weird basement place
I love how everyone unanimously agrees that the zoomed in flower from windows vista radiated incredible nostalgia. The amount of memories that hit me the second I saw it man.
very good video! made me very happy to see all these profile pics again 😊 i haven't seen anyone mention it, so i'll note that 9:39 looks to me like a bonsai tree! it's a mini tree involved in an entire japanese art form, and i find it strangely cute for them to have a lil bonsai tree as a lowres profile picture
1:16 too be fair, that's exactly how that's supposed to work. Stock image companies offer a library of images that other companies can use after paying.
The "music thing" was a bass clef, Which is used by lower instruments (trombone, bass guitar, etc.) Clefs are used because different instruments are on different octaves and is difficult to read if they were all the same "range".
We do a quite considerable amount of mental trickery and mockery of those who are unfortunate enough to fall victim to our clever little traps of social teasing
12:34 I always remembered seeing that PFP on the school computer lab. This brings back so many memories of hopping of the computer to play CoolMath games or doing school work.
Hey Polygon, I really hope you’re doing okay! I love your content but I love the content creator more! Be sure to take care of yourself and be nice to yourself too!! c: OH BTW I went to lake Winnie and they had water wigglers and I thought of your channel 😭 I was so happy to see them in the wild
when i was like, 5 or 6 my family had a windows xp set-up on a dinky little crt monitor, the chess picture kinda sorta flashed me back to when i got a virus on said computer by playing on one of those "free super mario" websites also a big fan of the teto gasp at 1:30
I actually found out where the frog thing came from, in 1998, a company had a promotional campaign for a zoo. The animals that were made were types of toys that flip inside out and show a different animal. The frog, being the most sold with more than 800,000 purchases, was then admired by Microsoft 3 years later. Sources: (I just spread misinformation across the internet)
OMG I forgot about these! The little frog was mine on our family computer when I was about 6. I think I chose it because my baby blanket had little green frogs on it 🥹
THE MEMORIES SEEING THE XP FISH UNLOCKED the fish was the one i used bc my one personality trait when i was very little was my hyperfixation on the beach and sea animals, fueled mostly by the fact that my nickname was (and now my preferred name is) mar, which is literally just the first three letters of my birthname, but on its own literally means "sea" for some reason i had forgotten about that dude and it felt cool seeing someone love it as much as i did back in the day
also i distinctly remember our guest account had a picture of a plane instead of the default suitcase idk if it was the one shown here or one from the internet 🤔
Fun fact: when pingpong ball mentions lost media, both images of examples of lost media are both found!! The shrek 1995 test has been found in full and so have everyone knows that (which is now officially known as ulterior motives :D)
0:50 thats for a game called Jacks, you toss those little silver things, bounce a ball, and try to pick up as many as you can before the ball hits the ground.
i love it when i check back in on a youtube channel i haven't watched in a while and suddenly they're an radically unique and fun to look at anime esqe girl its a fun surprise
