this was an attempt to turn the dyatlov pass incident into a meme repeating itself in every phenomenon, like we have seen with ice box

in itself, it's a rather uninspired song parody. the hope was after 100 more dyatlovposts, it would become funny retroactively

however, on honest self-reflection, i never really had the intention of seeing this project through to completion

and this is perhaps related to certain flaws in the dyatlov pass incident itself, flaws that make it unsuitable as a general meme
Show this thread -
in particular, unlike e.g. icebox plums, the dyatlov pass incident is not a story with agreed-upon canonical elements
Show this thread -
we do not know what happened during the dyatlov pass incident. that is why it is famous in the first place!
Show this thread -
it has its advantages as a very general meme - namely, the contrast between its sinister tone and the tone of most songs
Show this thread -
however, it also has the flaw of being too obscure
Show this thread -
to illustrate my earlier point about canon: when i speak of waking beasts, the reference to the incident becomes less clear, not more
Show this thread -
because, for all we know, the dyatlov pass incident wasn't perpetrated by cryptids at all
Show this thread -
on top of this, as westerners, we don't know how to pronounce the word dyatlov. it's two syllables, i guess, but which one is stressed?
Show this thread -
all this adds to a sense of awkwardness that destroys any momentum that i might have imparted on this forced meme

you have my humble apologies. i pray that this flaming trash heap of a content may light your own path toward excellence
