Spit Take Hilarious Half-Life video fan fic

I think this has been posed here before, but it's hilarious enough to bear repeating.

Oh, man! There's a whole series of these! Apparently they were fan fics written by a 9 year old boy and posted online. Other artistes found them later and animated them.

I was about to say these sound like stories my son would write. I feel for the kid though.. i wonder if he has seen these, and if so, if he was happy someone took the time to do this or sad that they made fun of him.

Is this really how Second Life avatars look and move? I think I would rather play with a room full of haunted Victorian dolls than these things. Funny, but creepy.

Wow this thing even has a TV Tropes page.

According to Tropes, only the first is genuine. The sequels were written by others in the same style.

Ah well... still hilarious, though!

It's not Second Life, it's Half-Life.

Half-Life is a video game series. A kid wrote a fan-fic about it, posted on-line, and it was discovered by those with the ability to made a parody of it using a mod that let them animate their own scenes.
