i hate cats

I really hate cats. I am a dog guy for sure, but I am not indifferent about cats. I hate them. One time, while back, Mike posted a video about funny cat shit. Even though I hate them, I can admit, they are sometimes funny, or sometimes cute. Especially when squeezed into bottles.
Well, this guy […]

Saw

I nearly shit myself when I watched this teaser trailer for the upcoming independent horror film, Saw. There is a lot of buzz about it since Sundance, but I hadn’t heard of it until today. Unfortunately I have forgotten who’s site posted this first. Sorry. You have to see this. Seriously. Since then, I have […]

half-ton hog

A farmer poses here beside a half-ton feral hog that he shot and killed. I thought it was trick photography. It isn’t. The I thought it was something from Lord of the Rings. It wasn’t. This shit is real. Real scary.

I am Lisa Simpson

I don’t know exactly what went wrong. I was sure I was going to be Duff Man, but instead, I took this Simpson’s personality quiz, and I am Lisa. Goddammit. Lisa Fucking Simpson. The most annoying character. I would have take Otto, or Homer, or even Mo… You try.

rowdy clergy epidemic

Clearly not as bad as our Catholic priests molesting young boys, Cambodian Buddhist monks still make the news this week after being reprimanded for poor behavior. Apparently, these monks have been scolded for”fighting with slingshots and petrol bombs at a temple, molesting a boy, and for beating a man and stealing motorcycles.” Awesome! I love […]

The future of the web… and the world

For most of you, this article will mean nothing. Less than nothing. Nerd talk, for nerds, by nerds. So, unless you already know what RSS and metadata mean, don’t bother. Trust me. I almost punched my own face for knowing what this meant.
For those of you who do know, this article is a fascinating, […]

krispy kreme

We all know the dramatic story of Krispy Kreme’s stock. Those of you who are lucky enough to live anywhere near a Krispy Kreme store, know the delicious wonder of their glazed donut, warm, gooey, sticky, deadly. Yes deadly. You know that like Pringles, once you pop, you can’t stop. Only fear of premature death […]

John Kerry’s war record in serious question…

Matt Drudge is breaking the story about “Unfit for Command,” a new controversial book, by swift boat Vietnam veterans completely bashing Kerry’s war record. Some of the points are astounding. Of course, the Kerry camp will deny all charges and claim Bush is behind it. I, as usual, don’t know what to believe. In all […]

James Brown is fucked

This is some funny shit. There is very little better in this world than fucked up celebrities making fools out of themselves. James Brown is fucked. Enjoy this “interview.” I wish all musicians answered questions only with lyrics from their own songs.

pencil sculpture

I am a talentless hack. My art is made with tiny little pixels on the screen of a laptop computer. It’s made of nothing. It’s made of a concept of millions of 1’s and 0’s ordered in such a way that they look like something on a screen. But they are really, really small, […]

I’m rich, beeotch!

That’s right. Dave Chappelle, funniest motherfucker since Chris Rock was funny, signed a sweet new deal with Comedy Central. Since his ratings are through the roof, and he is universally regarding as “fucking funny”, his 1st season DVD has sold like 1.5 million copies, and I don’t know a single person in the world, including […]

creep

Here’s a beautiful, animated video for a really great rendition of Radiohead’s Creep. This acoustic version of the song is brilliant, and is perfectly complimented by this animation style and vision. I love this little guy. It’s about 6MB, but it is worth the download time. Really. Watch this.

Ever since I found Real Ultimate Power, I have been worried about random ninja attacks. They are more common than you think. Now, finally, the answer to my prayers.

My department’s intern Michael, a.k.a. YFI (young fucking intern), doesn’t really do much except surf the internet. Today he finally found something useful, addictinggames.com. As expected, this site is filled with links to some pretty great Flash games so you can waste time at work.
One of the games turned out to be one of the […]

holy sweet nerdness batman!

Some dudes with a video camera, in Chicago I think, were in the right bat time, right bat channel, and accidentally grabbed some footage of the new Batmobile on the street during movie filming. It’s pretty cool looking. The best part of the video is the guys talking in the background. It’s hilarious. And awesome.

me koko, me koko

Everybody and CNN is running the story today about the famously articulate, ASL sign language speaking gorilla, Koko. Her over-1000 word vocabulary and cleverness allowed her to tell her trainers last month that she had a toothache. She described the pain as a 9 or 10 out of 10, and pointed to her mouth. She […]

tamagotchi connection

I am sure most of you remember the little digital pets that took the world by storm just a few years ago. Tamagotchi cost $10 or $15 and was ridiculously addictive and fun. I had one. It died. In any case, a new modernized version is on sale in NY and LA this week. This […]

bowman

Bowman kicks total ass. It is one of the simplest, best flash games I have played in a long ass time. You can’t believe the satisfaction you get when one of your arrows goes straight through your opponent’s head. Try turning on the wind and wall preferences for some really challenging fun.

My intern, YFI, came through again. Here’s a new, great, but really, really difficult flash game. Create your character, use your mouse, kick some ass. Oh, I love illustrated violence. Love. Madness Interactive, found on Flashplayer.com is awesome. Go play.

backless g-string invented

I am pretty psyched about this. There’s nothing quite like a nice ass-crack cleavage to brighten up an otherwise boring trip to Bond St.
A concerned mom decided it was thoroughly unsanitary for her daugher to go commando out of concern for showing a little t-back. So, her and her husband spend $300K to develop […]

480lb couch woman

At first you might want to laugh at the 480 pound woman who died in Florida a few days ago. Emergency workers were trying to remove her from the couch she had been FUSED to after not getting up for 6 years. Years. I chuckled to for a second. Until I read the “husband’s” […]

Some people are way smarter than me. I know it’s hard to believe, but it’s true. Take this guy for instance, Brian Gardener, he tore apart a few PSone’s, a few 5 inch LCD screens, a few PS controllers, cut them up, rewired everything back together, designed a new case that he had prototyped out, […]

Those of you who came to my birthday party this year at the Sunburnt Cow probably met the owners and loved the place. Heath, Chris and Chris are celebrating the one year anniversary of the grand opening this weekend. For those of you who don’t know the place, it’s an awesome Australian bar, lounge, and […]

One time I did steroids and took my clothes off and prematurely ejaculated

The following story is Rate R for strong language and sexual content. Parental guidance is suggested.
When I was 18,19,20, and 21, I was a gym rat. Somehow, deep inside, I found the energy to go to the gym 5 or 6 times per week. A typical week at 19 years old included 16 credits or […]

This is great advertising. Not only does the USA suck at the Olympics, we suck at advertising. These two ads, for lube, are winning awards in Europe. In this country, people are praying for the people who made these. I need to move.

This one for KY. “No box is too small for KY.” Brilliant.

The following story is rated R for mature language and sexual themes. Reader discretion is advised.

super cop meets super criminal…

..unbelievable results.
As if from a Jet Li/Steven Seagal movie, the action unfolded in China yesterday. A man, let’s call him Dr. Doom, took 2 children hostage and demanded money for their release. This led to a four hour standoff with police. That is until SuperCop tethered himself to something, using something, and climbed out on […]

tarantino’s got a blog

Quentin Taranino has a blog, and it’s pretty good. When you read it, you feel like an insider and friend. He responds to emails and comments too. Well, if it’s for real… Many people think it’s fake. I don’t. But if it is fake, it might be even more genius. Anyway, read it.

30 second movies, by bunnies

Angry Alien is a genius website by a hilarious animator, who made five 30 second abridged versions of some popular movies, where all the characters are bunnies. These are seriously funny. Jaws is the best so far, but Alien, Titanic, The Shining, and The Exorcist are not far behind. You should also check out “Amy’s […]

monday night football no more?

Well, it appears the end of an era in near. ABC is hemorrhaging money out of Monday Night Football, paying the NFL $550 million a year for the rights to the games, and earning only $400 million in ad revenue. Not good. It seems that Disney may hold out longer because they make so much […]

Thanks to Witold for pointing this one out. ESAO.net is absolutely gorgeous. Her (?) work is really incredible, from paintings, to drawings, to illustrations, her talent and vision is equally bizarre and beautiful. The flash interface to her site is really well done - clever, creepy, and a little bit funny. Go there.

9-11 WTC toy, how clever

This is really sweet. Some toy company created and shipped this little beauty out to a store in Florida. I am psyched that our children might play with such a thing. If you doubt this is what we think it is, please read this article and notice that the toy’s serial number is “9011.” That […]
