Happy Pico Day

Posted by CIEIRMusic - June 11th, 2022


First off, I'd like to wish everyone a Happy Pico Day. I can honestly say I never thought Newgrounds would ever have a day named after it's title character. Thankfully last year, I was proven wrong. I entered mostly for kicks, but it really brought the creative bug out of me. For last year's entry I basically tried to mix two holidays together, Pico Day as well as the years Pico has been around:


Basically making a Birthday/Pico Day cake that went hilariously wrong.


This year, I rolled the dice. I wanted to try to see if I could celebrate this and Piconjo Day at the same time with the same entry. Wasn't sure if it was against any contest rules, but even then the hell with it. These two have been around for a while they deserve a duo celebration. So thinking really hard and getting inspired by my last Piconjo song and the art that inspired it:


I decided to do a sequel song to it. Originally I was trying to ask @Shintsukimi205 to create an art companion piece to make song cover for it, but so far I haven't heard from him. That said Shintsukimi, if you're still around I invited you as a manager and inspiration so even if it's well too late, you're still free to do that.


The song in particular was this:


It's basically a hypothetical face off between Shint's Anti-heroic interpretation of @Piconjo against Pico.


To close out this day, I would like to share my history with Newgrounds.


I first discovered the site at around 8 - 10 years old. Back then all it was was Assassin, Parodies, Porno and Pico. The latter of which interested me more. Specifically these:


At that time South Park was in it's infancy as well and I was already getting used to the raunchiness of that one along with Kenny getting killed constantly.


The other site I stumbled upon around that time was StickDeath. Which I have heard has since been gone. Those that don't know it was basically a site full of stick figure related flash animation and games. Much like Newgrounds it involved a lot of gore, sex and over the top comedy. It's also how I discovered Full Metal Jacket as Sergeant Hartman's quotes could be heard sprinkled throughout.


The only other site that seems similar at the time was also Killfrog, but I only watched it for the Dumb Ass Bass and Blues Clues parody.


Anywho, have a happy Picoday.

hapy pico day for you too

Thanks.

why does ur pico tribute from 2021 have such low rating

To be fair while I liked the idea and stand by it, I know not a lot of people woukd enjoy a picture of what is essentially just a cake. Unless you're a really good artist or a major cake fanatic, drawing a cake is a big example of what is known as lazy artistry. Since a cake in art is often just three rectangles put together in layers. The only thing unique about my cake is the color scheme. Plus some were probably ticked that all they saw were voice bubbles and no trio. Still. Tom liked it and that's what mattered to me at the time.
