Drunk Plant

noreply@blogger.com (Unknown) — Tue, 02 Dec 2008 16:45:00 +0000

Drunk plant is probably one of the funniest videos ever. Watch it -- you can fast forward to about 40seconds in to start. Nothing better than a drunk, sunglasses wearing, guitar playing plant.

CREEPY GAME

noreply@blogger.com (Unknown) — Tue, 18 Nov 2008 22:23:00 +0000

This is the commercial for the new karaoke type Xbox 360 games Lips. Probably one of the creepiest things I've ever seen...ever.

Brobee Song

noreply@blogger.com (Unknown) — Tue, 18 Nov 2008 18:40:00 +0000

I have no idea what this is. Apparently "Brobee" is some kind of kids show or character or something. What's important here is that you watch this video RIGHT NOW. Don't drink anything with watching your you WILL SPIT IT OUT do to hilarity. It's a "Brobee Party In My Tummy Remix" I have no idea what it is, just watch it.

Slovin and Allen

Watch this ridiculous "time machine" skit from Slovin and Allen. It is filled with pure hilarity.

The Truth About Sarah Palins Speech

noreply@blogger.com (Unknown) — Thu, 04 Sep 2008 16:10:00 +0000

Jim Kuhnhenn of the AP wrote a "fact checking" artcile on the statements made during Sarah Palin's and others speeched at the GOP convention. It's a rather interesting read when you cut through the rhetoric.

What Is This Thing?

noreply@blogger.com (Unknown) — Thu, 04 Sep 2008 14:31:00 +0000

What the hell is this thing? I saw it's picture on the video game site Kotaku. Didn't read that article, but I thought the smiling creature was hilarious. If you right click and save it, it says the file name is "sloth.jpg." I always thought Sloth looked like this:

The Sexiest Female Forms of the Summer Olympics

noreply@blogger.com (Unknown) — Wed, 20 Aug 2008 12:42:00 +0000

So a list of the 50 hottest female Olympians was compiled by some website called WebTVHub. The actual list is titled "The Sexiest Female Forms of the Summer Olympics." I guess we should have seen this coming. What I find funny is that it's from a random website (random to me at least) and not Maxim of FHM or something. You can view the entire list HERE.

Now I'm going to keep most of my comments to myself because, well, just look at the list. But I will say that I do like the pic of Katerina Emmons of the Czech Republic holding a rifle (I guess that is her sport), that's hot.

I also found THIS, The 26 Hottest US Olympic Women (I guess of all time). I have no idea who created this one, but I found it on CampusSqueeze.com.

EngrishFunny

noreply@blogger.com (Unknown) — Tue, 19 Aug 2008 15:59:00 +0000

I thought this website, EngrishFunny was legitimately funny, so you should check it out. There's a few crappy ones, but then there are one's that say "Please do not feed the fish with your private," which I imagine is good advice.

Though I would like to say it's a pretty terrible looking site with it's yellow and brown design.

Hot Coffee On The Subway

noreply@blogger.com (Unknown) — Tue, 19 Aug 2008 14:43:00 +0000

This morning I was one the subway, or should I say crammed into a subway car. It was completely packed. And what do I see in front of me, when I can't even lift up my arms? A guy attempting to drink Dunkin Donuts Coffee.

I don't understand why people buy coffee just to bring it on the subway. Can't you just get it at work or school or wherever you're going? Why do people think "Hmm I should get a scalding hot beverage and carry it with me for 20+ minutes in a packed space where no one can move, that's a good idea." Come on, what the F. Seriously, who thinks that? You can't drink it, you have to hold it, and you may even spill it on someone. And if you spill it on me I'll knock your block off. These are probably the same people who make awesome decisions like taking the elevator to the 2nd floor or bringing bikes on the subway.

President Bush Loves Ass

noreply@blogger.com (Unknown) — Thu, 14 Aug 2008 18:46:00 +0000

Apparently, Misty May asked President Bush to smack her ass. He didn't though, it's not like he's stupid and/or prone to poor decisions or anything.

High Police Officer Calls 911

noreply@blogger.com (Unknown) — Tue, 12 Aug 2008 20:43:00 +0000

Apparently in Michigan a police officer confiscated some marijuana and brought it to make brownies with his wife. This video below is from a Fox news affiliate playing a recording this officer made to 911. Why was he calling 911 you ask? Because he thought he and his wife were overdosing on his stolen pot brownies and that he was dead. Pretty funny stuff

The Earth Is Flat

noreply@blogger.com (Unknown) — Tue, 12 Aug 2008 18:34:00 +0000

A few days ago, there was a nice article from the BBC about people who think that the Earth is flat. Not people who used to think that...people who do think that...today. One of my favorite quotes from the article: "The space agencies of the world are involved in an international conspiracy to dupe the public for vast profit," says Mr McIntyre. "

I think I'm more amused by the claim that the space agencies of various countries are conspiring to create a conspiracy for profit more that the fact that these people are ignoring visual proof...let alone the laws of physics.

Paris Hilton Mocks McCain

noreply@blogger.com (Unknown) — Wed, 06 Aug 2008 16:58:00 +0000

John McCain compares Barack Obama to Paris Hilton stating he's simply a pop culture celebrity. Now Paris Hilton shoots back in a video on www.funnyordie.com. I don't much care for Paris but I think this was a nice shot (good job Paris' PR folks).

FunnyorDie.com does have some pretty clever and/or funny videos if you look around.

Schlitz Returns

noreply@blogger.com (Unknown) — Wed, 06 Aug 2008 15:45:00 +0000

Beer lovers rejoice. The holy beer nectar or Schlitz is back (thanks for the news MSNBC)!

Apparently Schlitz' formula had been changed numerous times which resulted in the grossness that everyone associates with the beer. I think though, that a lot of people associate some "funness" with it from their college days...I could name of ton of people I know that do...probably because it was ridiculously cheap. Apparently this stuff is selling out in Milwaukee and stores are creating waiting lists! And by the way, what a ridiculous ad that is (posted above)!

Schlitz is a badge. Wear it proudly. Next time you're at the bar do what Farva would do and order "six Schlitz'."

And now, once again courtesy of MSNBC, I present to you, a brief history of Schlitz:

1849: German immigrant August Krug opens a small restaurant and tavern in Milwaukee, begins to brew beer and turns it into a brewery.

1850: Joseph A. Schlitz, 20, immigrates from Germany and works for Krug as a bookkeeper.

1856: Krug dies, leaving no offspring, and Schlitz takes over management of the brewery.

1858: Schlitz marries Krug's widow, Ann Marie.

1861: The brewery is renamed the Joseph Schlitz Brewery. Schlitz runs it with Krug's four nephews, the Uihlein brothers.

1871: The Great Chicago Fire destroys many of that city's breweries, giving Schlitz an opening to expand his business.

1875: Schlitz travels to Germany and is presumed dead when his ship sinks in a storm. Since he had no children with Krug's widow, the Uihlein brothers take over the brewery.

1893: The company introduces the slogan "The Beer That Made Milwaukee Famous."

1902: Schlitz surpasses Pabst as the world's best-selling beer after selling 1 million barrels that year.

1912: Schlitz bottles its beer in brown bottles, marking the first time a brewer does so. The dark color prevents light from spoiling the beer.

1920: Prohibition begins. The brewery makes soda, malt syrup and candy. It survives because the Uihlein brothers have extensive real estate holdings.

1934: Prohibition ends, Schlitz resumes production and retakes No. 1 sales spot.

1953: Strike by Milwaukee brewery workers hurts brewers like Pabst, Blatz and Schlitz, which lose market share to rivals such as Anheuser-Busch Cos. Inc. of St. Louis.

1954: Schlitz briefly rebounds to again be the world's best-selling beer.

1955: Anheuser-Busch takes over the top spot, which it still holds.

1975: Immediate family management of Schlitz ends and distant relatives and outsiders take over the operation.

Mid-to-late 1970s: Schlitz still sells well, so the new owners try to make more by shortening the fermenting process. But the beer has no foam and is flat, so managers add a seaweed extract. But that turns solid after sitting in bottles for a few months. Schlitz sales fall and the old formula is gone.

1981: Production of Schlitz ends in Milwaukee when workers strike.

1982: Detroit's Stroh Brewery Co. acquires Schlitz and sells off many of Schlitz's plants to pay for the acquisition. It focuses on promoting Schlitz' secondary brand, Old Milwaukee.

1999: Pabst Brewing Co. buys Schlitz from Stroh.

2008: Schlitz reintroduces the classic formula.

To Serve and Eject

noreply@blogger.com (Unknown) — Mon, 28 Jul 2008 17:39:00 +0000

Well it looks like we get two posts today, because this video I saw is absolutely appalling. Apparently Friday night was an NY Critical Mass bike ride. Well the video below shows a cop running into a bike rider and shoving him off his bike.

This looked completely unprovoked and from the video you can see that no police officers or bystanders were in any danger that would warrant force like that. I can't see any defense that could be used here. The original article goes on to say that the BIKE RIDER was arrested and charged with attempted assault. Now I'm all for police leeway, letting them do what needs to be done for the job and giving them the benefit of the doubt, but this is a blatant abuse of power and things like this should not be tolerated.

Now I don't know the whole story, but from looking at that video, it's my opinion that that cop should be fired and charged with assault. (Update: even if the police were on the lookout for this guy I think they could have handled it differently, unless he was the anti-Christ.)

15 reasons Mr. Rogers was best neighbor ever

noreply@blogger.com (Unknown) — Mon, 28 Jul 2008 16:22:00 +0000

*image from Wikipedia

This morning I was shown an article about Mr. Rogers. I decided to repost it here because Mr. Rogers is wacky and is always funny. The real reason I decided to repost it was because of the #1 reason which is hilarious.

The article comes from CNN via Mental Floss magazine so be sure to visit those sites .

Full article below:

Here are 15 things everyone should know about Fred Rogers:

1. Even Koko the Gorilla loved him. Most people have heard of Koko, the Stanford-educated gorilla who could speak about 1000 words in American Sign Language, and understand about 2000 in English.

What most people don't know, however, is that Koko was an avid Mister Rogers' Neighborhood fan. As Esquire reported, when Fred Rogers took a trip out to meet Koko for his show, not only did she immediately wrap her arms around him and embrace him, she did what she'd always seen him do onscreen: she proceeded to take his shoes off!

2. He made thieves think twice. According to a TV Guide piece on him, Fred Rogers drove a plain old Impala for years. One day, however, the car was stolen from the street near the TV station. When Rogers filed a police report, the story was picked up by every newspaper, radio and media outlet around town.

Amazingly, within 48 hours the car was left in the exact spot where it was taken from, with an apology on the dashboard. It read, "If we'd known it was yours, we never would have taken it." Mental Floss: Memorable commencement speakers

3. He watched his figure to the pound. In covering Rogers' daily routine (waking up at 5 a.m.; praying for a few hours for all of his friends and family; studying; writing, making calls and reaching out to every fan who took the time to write him; going for a morning swim; getting on a scale; then really starting his day), writer Tom Junod explained that Mr. Rogers weighed in at exactly 143 pounds every day for the last 30 years of his life.

He didn't smoke, didn't drink, didn't eat the flesh of any animals, and was extremely disciplined in his daily routine. And while I'm not sure if any of that was because he'd mostly grown up a chubby, single child, Junod points out that Rogers found beauty in the number 143.

According to the piece, Rogers came "to see that number as a gift... because, as he says, "the number 143 means 'I love you.' It takes one letter to say 'I' and four letters to say 'love' and three letters to say 'you.' One hundred and forty-three."

4. He saved both public television and the VCR. Strange but true. When the government wanted to cut public television funds in 1969, the relatively unknown Mister Rogers went to Washington.

Almost straight out of a Frank Capra film, his 5-6 minute testimony on how TV had the potential to give kids hope and create more productive citizens was so simple but passionate that even the most gruff politicians were charmed. While the budget should have been cut, the funding instead jumped from $9 to $22 million.

Rogers also spoke to Congress, and swayed senators into voting to allow VCR's to record television shows from the home. It was a cantankerous debate at the time, but his argument was that recording a program like his allowed working parents to sit down with their children and watch shows as a family. Mental Floss: Forgotten kids shows sure to give you nightmares

5. He might have been the most tolerant American ever. Mister Rogers seems to have been almost exactly the same off-screen as he was onscreen. As an ordained Presbyterian minister, and a man of tremendous faith, Mister Rogers preached tolerance first.

Whenever he was asked to castigate non-Christians or gays for their differing beliefs, he would instead face them and say, with sincerity, "God loves you just the way you are." Often this provoked ire from fundamentalists.

6. He was genuinely curious about others. Mister Rogers was known as one of the toughest interviews because he'd often befriend reporters, asking them tons of questions, taking pictures of them, compiling an album for them at the end of their time together, and calling them after to check in on them and hear about their families. He wasn't concerned with himself, and genuinely loved hearing the life stories of others.

And it wasn't just with reporters. Once, on a fancy trip up to a PBS exec's house, he heard the limo driver was going to wait outside for 2 hours, so he insisted the driver come in and join them (which flustered the host).

On the way back, Rogers sat up front, and when he learned that they were passing the driver's home on the way, he asked if they could stop in to meet his family. According to the driver, it was one of the best nights of his life the house supposedly lit up when Rogers arrived, and he played jazz piano and bantered with them late into the night. Further, like with the reporters, Rogers sent him notes and kept in touch with the driver for the rest of his life.

7. He was color-blind. Literally. He couldn't see the color blue. Of course, he was also figuratively color-blind, as you probably guessed. As were his parents, who took in a black foster child when Rogers was growing up. Mental Floss: Praise for the blind genius who invented cruise control

8. He could make a subway car full of strangers sing. Once while rushing to a New York meeting, there were no cabs available, so Rogers and one of his colleagues hopped on the subway. Esquire reported that the car was filled with people, and they assumed they wouldn't be noticed.

But when the crowd spotted Rogers, they all simultaneously burst into song, chanting "It's a beautiful day in the neighborhood." The result made Rogers smile wide.

9. He got into TV because he hated TV. The first time he turned one on, he saw people angrily throwing pies in each other's faces. He immediately vowed to use the medium for better than that. Over the years he covered topics as varied as why kids shouldn't be scared of a haircut, or the bathroom drain (because you won't fit!), to divorce and war.

10. He was an Ivy League dropout. Rogers moved from Dartmouth to Rollins College to pursue his studies in music.

11. He composed all the songs on the show, and over 200 tunes.

12. He was a perfectionist, and disliked ad libbing. He felt he owed it to children to make sure every word on his show was thought out.

13. Michael Keaton got his start on the show as an assistant. He helped puppeteer and operate the trolley.

14. Several characters on the show are named for his family. Queen Sara is named after Rogers' wife, and the postman Mr. McFeely is named for his maternal grandfather who always talked to him like an adult, and reminded young Fred that he made every day special just by being himself. Sound familiar? It was the same way Mister Rogers closed every show.

15. The sweaters. Every one of the cardigans he wore on the show had been hand-knit by his mother.

Pineapple Express Restricted Trailer

noreply@blogger.com (Unknown) — Fri, 25 Jul 2008 13:11:00 +0000

I guess I like to post movie trailers, so here's another one. This time it's the trailer for Pineapple Express, which I'm sure you've probably seen on TV already. For some reason though I can't find the trailer that's on TV and that's too bad because the "I made a mistake" phone marriage dialogue with Seth Rogan is great.

Below is the one I think is funny. Below that one is the restricted trailer which I don't think is as funny.

I Hate Preggers

noreply@blogger.com (Unknown) — Fri, 25 Jul 2008 12:33:00 +0000

I hate the word "preggers." As in someone stating that someone else is or looks as if they are pregnant, as in "Wow she's preggers." I'm not sure I can think of a word that irritates me as much as this.

This isn't even shortening a word or creating a slang term to hide the meaning from someone. It's just deciding to create some mashed word that looks the same, means the same thing, has the same number of letters and syllables, but for some reason is a new word. There is zero purpose to this word usage.

I heard that if you use the word you're 10x more likely to get thrown in front of a train. Seriously do not ever use this word.

Do you all remember the Macho Man Randy Savage? Of course you do. Well here's a promo of his from what I think is the early 80s. It is completely ridiculous and make ZERO sense. It almost sounds like he's reading random lines from random poems or something, or simply babbling offer words as they enter his head. Watch it, it's funny.

311

noreply@blogger.com (Unknown) — Wed, 16 Jul 2008 18:53:00 +0000

Tonight I'm going to see one of my favorite bands, 311. This will be something like the 12th time I've seen them. Funny thing is that the first time I saw them I wasn't really a fan and just went because a bunch of my friends were going. Well that show changed my mind - they are great and one of the best live bands ever. It's not that they have a particular "show" -- it's just the energy that's at the shows, ask and fan and they'll tell you what I mean.

If you're not a fan, I suggest you give them a try, summertime would work best and you can take pretty much anything of the Music or Grassroots albums first.

I'd also like to rep two of the bands I saw open for 311 years ago; 2 Skinnee J's and Shootyz Groove. And for the record Incubus fans, 311 is far superior.

Enjoy 311:

1,2,3,4 Monsters Walking Across The Floor

noreply@blogger.com (Unknown) — Tue, 15 Jul 2008 13:27:00 +0000

I have no idea why this is amusing to me but it is. A video of Fiest singing her song 1,2,3,4 - which you may know from the ipod commercial where she's in some bright blue outfit doing some odd hip/body shake dance move. Well now Fiest has redone the song for Sesame Street into a "counting is fun boys and girls" song which included the the glorious like "1,2,3,4 monsters walking across the floor."

I don't know whether I actually hate the video or love it. I can't tell whether I want to make fun of it or enjoy the fun that comes with learning up to four digits.

Video:
