"The Joy of ASCII" by Jo Luijten Is a Strange Homage to Bob Ross (Video)

His version of Bob Ross has an uncle who grows marijuana.

It's strange, but we dig it. The Joy of ASCII by Jo Luijten refers to the famous PBS painter Bob Ross and it's one of the craziest videos we have ever seen. The artist is rendered in this tribute as a purple-faced, pixelated character rocking the trademark afro. However, instead of using paint, the artist uses ALT commands and a personal computer to create art. Also, Ross in this version uses the colors Viagra Blue and George Clooney Grey. He even has a Dutch uncle who farms marijuana. Watch the video below.
