THIS VIDEO WOULD'VE BEEN BETTER IF IT HAD ACTUAL JEWS IN IT

More specifically: Get a really famous Jewish comedian (I'm thinking Mel Brooks, Howard Stern, Sarah Silverman, Jerry Seinfeld, Joan Rivers, maybe?) to shout the "JEW!" part. Unintentionally hilarious, it's Benz and Jewman, "I Might," and they're both kinda sweaty:

YOUR STRATEGY FOR PURCHASING JUNG'S 'RED BOOK'

This is for your own good, trust me, Mr. Psych Major: C.G.'s shiz is down to like $115 on Amazon, but seriously, don't buy it now. Wait like six months until dudes start selling it to used bookstores so they can get money for weed.

HTC wants You to know that You are doing things ...

... and in a much more deliberate and '90s-spoken-word kind of way, Soul Coughing once wanted You to know that it was 5 a.m. and You were listening to Los Angeles, and that You you were going to Reseda to make love to a model from Ohio whose real name You didn't know:

Man, that video and that song have not aged well.

No, it's not a schieze-film festival. It's information provided by this promotional video from Blahzay Blahzay, a favorite around Your Cesspool Parts. Blahz is back. We love some Blahz. I think we even have the "Danger" CD single in the vault. And yeah, we lied about going on hiatus. Suck it. Video:

HIATUS (?)

This postseason-baseball thing is dry-humping some of the life out of me. Or maybe it's Other Stuff that is dry-humping some of the life out of me. Or maybe it's the Crack. Oh well. In the meantime, here's a picture of Pedro Martinez and Nelson de la Rosa:

TOTALLY UNRELATED BONUS: Interview with Vincent Locke, the guy who makes album covers for Cannibal Corpse and also illustrated "A History Of Violence." BLOCKQUOTE, YO:

The only hard part is not being able to let my kids see some of the artwork. There are times they can’t come in my studio. Since I work at home, they often come and go and see what I’m working on. But there are definitely times where they need to stay out, or I work out a way they won’t see it accidentally. Some stuff is not for kids, right?

END BLOCKQUOTE, YO!

I WAITED FOR THE DVD

Hey pals, I am recently and totally enamored with the intro to Aqua Teen Hunger Force Colon Move Film For Theaters. It makes me feel the same way I felt when I heard thrash metal for the first time. I can't remember that moment, but I can remember what I felt like. It was the '80s, maybe there was chocolate milk involved. Vision Street Wear, maybe? A Chevy Vega? Your mom? One of those little smoke bombs that you buy at the drug store in late June? A scraped knee? Spontaneous erections? It's this. Mastodon did it:

STUPID AWESOME BONUS: "Guitar Hero" custom:

HILARIOUS DUELING PRESS PHOTOS: ROB T. vs. DEV B.

BIOLOGY WILL GET U EVERY TIME

Yer Poppa complained loudly about the fact that many of the Phils' first-round playoff games were on the boobtube at inconvenient times -- like, uh, 2:30 p.m. on a Wednesday, when even Your Friendly Office Bourbon Fiend might have a hard time saying "I gotta get LUNCH" with a plausibly straight face. Now I'm wondering if all this prime-time October baseball action is only a mirage of convenience. Because on Monday night, I fell asleep well before Jimmy Rollins hit that double, and I awoke only to the sound of TBS announcers pulling their tongues out of their tracheas. Dude, I'm an old man, and an 8:07 start time only guarantees that I gotta guzzle some PG Tips or a Mt. Doo-Doo to stay awake for all 9 innings.

IT'S ALSO VAGUELY 'GOATSE'

Y'know when you're telling a joke about somebody being born, and you cup your hands tightly over your face, and you push your face through your hands, and it kinda looks like somebody coming out of a vagina?

Sometimes you just gotta do the muh-fuckin' Chilly Willy. This snippet has a Great Recession theme. I think Chillz gets to keep the booster seat, however. It's a metaphor of some sort:

NOTE: Chillz is slightly more verbal than Curious George.

"Camel ranching" sounds like a sexual euphemism. Suggestions for the definition are welcomed. Mike Rowe gets to camel-ranch, apparently:

MARKETING DEPARTMENT MAKES COMPASSIONATE CHOICE

There are many, many possible reactions to this ad: Disbelief that Imus still has a show; laughter at the fact that a business news channel hired him; general pity; complete indifference; and so on. Behold:

But here's what I'm thinking: THANK YOU THANK YOU THANK YOU, GENIUS FOX NETWORK PEOPLE, FOR NOT MAKING ME LOOK AT AN ACTUAL PICTURE OF THAT NASTY OLD FART. The hat is skeevy enough, but I guess they had to put some sort of signature image.
