I almost forgot this thread, I will post one more message.

About my current age:
I recently turned 21 years old

About my age when I first discovered the gif on funnyjunk? I have no clue.

It was an unknown number of years later that I discovered an unlabelled mega folder posted to 8chan (insanely lucky)
Then I lost those files (bad luck)
Then I rediscovered them (once again from the mega link on 8chan. Which was quite difficult still, and quite lucky the link was still up at the time)
Then sometime later I asked a translator to help me find who the artist was from text in the video.
This led me to a nicovideo page which I then followed as a safety net in case I lost the files again.
Then I lost the files again which was the final time. (awful luck)
I checked my nicovideo account, and the artist was gone from my follows (insanely awful luck)
I think it has been... 5-6 years since I last saw the videos.

Sadly my description is likely too vague to be useful, I don't expect anyone to be able to help me, I'm sure the videos are lost forever. I've kinda lost hope I'll ever find them.
I am just very emotional because these videos were very important to me, and yet my backup attempts all failed :(
I tell this story as a way to vent my sorrows, and as a warning for everyone to make as many backups of important files as possible, more than you think you need.
