Nobody is a bigger fan of Google than me, but it does seem silly to put all of your information seeking eggs in one basket. Up until now, there hasn’t been a single good alternative that I have seen. Until now…
Clusty is a brand new, still-in-beta, search engine that delivers your search results in “clusters”, […]
The National Review online has a fantastic interview with a long time Pixar employee, Craig Good, about how and why Pixar really, really works. Sounds to me like the absolutely perfect creative environment, and their culture, philosophy, and eye for talent have them leaps and bounds above everyone else, ever. This is a must […]
File this under “why didn’t I think of that” yet again. Clever little blogger makes a website dedicated to cool-ass t-shirts. I love cool-ass t-shirts, so preshrunk.info and I are new best friends. I’ll be ordering many, many of these, and unless you do too, guess which one of us will be cooler. Yeah, the […]
Man, I love a cool t-shirt, but I have never been obsessed with sneakers. I know a guy who has really cool sneakers. You could say he collects them. He has many pairs but I guess I never asked him how many. He buys “special editions” and “limited editions” and suede ones, and camoflage ones, […]
One of the reasons I go to work late every day I possibly can is that I absolutely HATE being packed into the subway, with inconsiderate people rubbing up against me, breathing on me, coughing, and hogging the poles with their backs and asscracks. I fucking hate it. When I get into work around 11am, […]
A friend of mine shared a deeply personal story of tragedy and triumph via email recently. He’s a good writer, and usually very, very funny. This one isn’t really funny. It is long though. I got his permission to post it here. Names have been changed to protect the innocent… You might enjoy it, or […]
Say what you want, Pimp My Ride is a fantastic show. However, West Coast Customs are talentless hacks. They turn beat up messes of cars into straight-up cheesy ghetto-mobiles, much like the way Monster House destroys people’s homes. They put the dumbest add-on shit in those cars, mount TV’s anywhere and everywhere, install multiple Playstations, […]
There isn’t much to say about this video except that it scares the shit out of me and delights me at the same time. This video is a must-see. I mean right now. NOW!
UPDATE 1/11/05!! According to Snopes.com, this video is an excerpt from a Japanese Powerade commercial from last year. I find it hard […]
Our good friend Witold has another feature on TheMorningNews starting today. “The Bear” is a fantastic gallery of photos of his little 2 inch tall bear that he takes with him around the world. He has posted a handful of these picts before on his website witoldriedel.com, so you might recognize some of them. But […]
I posted about preshrunk and cool t-shirts the other night. I thought I should also show you this awesome site that Gil shared with me earlier this week. In case you don’t know him, Gil has the best t-shirts. Threadless.com is a site where designers submit their t-shirt designs, and readers vote on the best […]
Superficial has links to some fantastical celebrity sexy picts tonight. Well, they always do, really, but tonight is special. Special because, finally, Kirsten Dunst had a nipple slip in St.Barts, and some saint was there to snap a picture. I know she has a head like an ugly pumpkin, but that body is booming. I […]
These photos on eBaum’s are fantastic. I have one somewhere of me and my friends piling shit on top of my sleeping roommate. I am searching everywhere but I can’t find it. It’s not quite as funny as these drunk prank photos, but its pretty good.
Anyway, go look at these. Some of them are genius, […]
Marius Valdes is a phenomenal artist. I WILL be buying some of his paintings this week. I smile just looking at these, and I can use that kind of vibe at work, so I am going to decorate my office in Valdes. I am very excited. Go see his work, now!
[thanks kiernan!]
Alien Loves Predator is a pretty funny web comic. Toys of Alien and Predator live in an apartment in NYC together. Even if you don’t think its funny, the photography and compositing is pretty great. Enjoy.
eNos emailed me this today. Hilarious. Its from some show on comedy central, but I’m not sure which. This RedSox Mastercard commercial is, well, priceless.
[thanks eNos.]
I found this video of Rodney Mullins tearing up the street on his skateboard. In case you don’t know, Mullins is 13 gold medal winning pro skateboarder who is completely ridiculous. This video proves it. So dope.

I got a great email today from a guy named “Dangerous Dave.” I love when I get shit like this, so keep it coming. Here is it in its eloquent entirety:
————————————-
from: dangerous dave
you are gay
i hope u die
i can tell by your site that you are pathetic
die
————————————-
Awesome, right. I think Dangerous Dave is a clever, […]
As expected, today was a HUGE day for Apple. Steve Jobs keynote speech this morning during this season’s MacWorld conference did not disappoint. In fact, it was scary how accurate the rumor sites were in the last few weeks.
The MS Powerpoint killer software, Keynote, now joins a Word competitor, Pages, in a new software suite […]
Here it is. The bottom line. Germans suck and it is mostly because they have zero taste in music. First it was David Hasselhoff - you know, the Baywatch/Knight Rider retard who had multiple #1 songs in Germany and is basically considered the greatest performer in the history of the world… Now, it’s Schnappi.
Schnappi is […]
Blue Christmas is an awesome SNL animated TV Funhouse skit by Robert Smigel. It’s a remake of Rudolph the Rednosed Reindeer where Santa refuses to deliver gifts to the Red States. Moby, Margaret Cho, Natalie Merchant, and Al Franken get involved. This is the famous animation where Rush Limbaugh wakes up next to a bottle […]
Many of you who follow my stupidity regularly may have noticed the awesome response I got from the nerd community over the Altoids iPod Battery Pack. As I described before, the tech blog community embraced the project and I was featured on boingboing, engadget, hackaday, and others. A short while later, what you don’t know, […]
The trailer for Frank Miller’s Sin City looks unreal. Robert Rodriguez directs this surreal, grungy, heroic, action, noir thing which stars absolutely everyone from Jessica Alba to Bruce Willis to Mickey Rourke to Rosario Dawson to Elijah Wood to Maria Bello. Could be the worst movie ever, or could be dope. Enjoy the trailer at […]
A guy named Josh emailed me a great question this evening. No, actually it’s not that great of a question. I thought I would share it with you all, as I often do, and maybe somebody out there can tell what the fuck this guy is asking about. I swear this is a real email. […]
Toshiba’s Japan site has a great little flash game that just might become your next cute little addiction. Help Tobby find his girlfriend and get her back from her bulldog captor. This is good fun.

A Colorado construction worker went to the dentist this week after complaining of a toothache for about 6 days. X-rays revealed that the problem was not a cavity, and not tooth related in any way. It turned out that the man had a 4 inch nail lodged in his skull, through the roof of his […]
VW makes a car in Europe called the Polo. We don’t get it here. It’s kind of like a smaller Golf. It’s nicely designed, about the same size as the old Rabbits, and relatively inexpensive. I’m sure the gas mileage is great. In any case, we’ve never seen ads for it because we can’t buy […]
After receiving much attention and many comments about the last version of the Altoids battery pack, decided to do something a little different for the next version. I was inspired by Griffin Technology’s TuneJuice emergency battery pack for the iPod. The elgant, little, white pack provides up to 4 hours of power to the iPod […]
I received and responded to one of the greatest emails ever tonight. It’s not the kind that I usually respond to publicly. Usually I respond to some idiot, and rip them apart for all of your enjoyment. This one was kind of touching to me, and I felt compelled to help this young girl with […]
A good friend of mine, who doesn’t do anything with the internet but surf it, has a band called Stock Car Diesel. They’re pretty good, and still very accessible. By accessible, I mean, they’ll still sleep with you, and you won’t need a backstage pass. They’ll be performing tomorrow night in Park Slope at Southpaw. […]
Another good friend of mine and former instructor is one of the owners of Five Points Gym on Broadway and Grand. They often sponsor and organize championship kickboxing nights in Manhattan. It’s generally very affordable, and very, very good. The fights are fast and furious, the crowds are small and under control, and the beer […]
The oh so sexy Bill Gates actually had a spread in Teen Beat magazine in the early 80’s. I can’t believed this never surfaced before. Boing Boing had this a few days ago and I didn’t want to repost, but 3 different people have emailed me the link, so now I feel compelled. Please enjoy […]
When Gratis Networks starting giving away iPods last year, I was skeptical. I also had an iPod already, so it never interested me. When some, including Kevin Rose, tested it out, the indeed received their free iPods after referring 5 friends who signed up for “offers.”
Well, the same company is now offering free Mac […]
Well, I have learned my lesson. I will stop praying to Baby Jesus for blog related requests, and start praying to Google. Instead of spending their time figuring out a way to eliminate comment spam on their own Blogger service, Google spearheaded an effort to eliminate comment spam for everyone. How? Well I’ll tell you.
Comment […]
The brothers over at JibJab have created their third installment of their George Bush parody animations. Hilarious as usual. Enjoy Second Term.

This is the funniest fucking video I have posted in months. I am laughing out loud at work right now. There are tears running down my cheeks. This video is a brilliantly edited series of outtakes from a Winnebago commercial in the late 70’s/early 80’s. I swear to god, it could not be funnier. I […]
It’s hard to believe this story is real. But… CNN is running a story about Christian groups issuing a “gay warning” over Spongebob video.
From the story:
“”A short step beneath the surface reveals that one of the differences being celebrated is homosexuality,” wrote Ed Vitagliano in an article for the American Family Association.”
Hahahahahahahaha! I always knew […]
Spike Jonze directs Bjork in the video for It’s in Our Hands. Filmed entirely in nightvision, in a fantastic set of giant flowers and the occasional giant bug, the video is awesome. Creepy, but awesome.

Tim Burton has a beautiful new animated film ready for Halloween release. Corpse Bride looks very much like The Nightmare Before Christmas, which is nothing short of extraordinary. Johnny Depp and Helena Bonham Carter voice act the main characters. I think this one is destined to be fantastic. Enjoy the trailer at Apple.com.
[via what do […]
Muppets Overtime is a beautiful animation, of muppets who have developed a bit of a life of their own. Fantasticly creepy and stunningly animated. I think you’ll love this.
[via screenhead.]
I read the script. We’ve seen the teasers, and the posters. You had high, or at least better than low, hopes for the Fantastic Four movie. I did not. I hate these fucking characters. I hate the Fantastic Four. Now I don’t feel so bad. In fact, I feel completely vindicated. The full trailer is […]
This is an amazing, amazing flash animation where you watch each line being drawn and colored in over and over again as the image transforms from one scene to the next, telling a great little story in the process. Watch it. Trust me.

Not the Law and Order bullshit you have all grown so fond of. Not CSI. Not Miami. The real deal. A veteran Chicago homicide detective pours his heart out on Craigslist in the “rants and raves” section, and it is a fascinating read.
“I’ve doing it for several years. I can think of roughly a […]
There is nothing “mini” about these helicopter miniguns. They fire so fast with tracer bullets they look like lasers. The destructive power of what are essentially just very fast bullets is awesome. I can’t even imagine how much fun it must be to man one of these - even just for training. Dear god. It […]
Stephanie made me morph myself. I was reluctant at first. But the fact that I want to fuck the asian version of her is sortof what changed my mind.
Upload a picture, align a couple circles, and morph away. Asian, black, young, old, no matter what you choose, the results are amazing. I chose a picture […]
I know you all are waiting for me to rip into Henry (henrypiglatin@yahoo.com) for his stupidity, but what you don’t know is that Henry posts on this site multiple time per day on various posts calling me stupid and racist and all sorts of things. For the most part I have said my piece to […]
More great VW advertising, only this time, it’s for real. Well sort of.
Gene Kelly pop-locks his way through the rain to his brand new GTI. The tag line, “The original, updated.” is brilliant. Enjoy this nice, little, modern dancing with an old, dead guy ad.

I have loved Terri Hatcher since her first appearance on The New Adventures of Superman. Her breasts too center stage on Seinfeld when she declared, “They’re real…and their spec-tacular!” But we haven’t seen her in a while, and she has gotten a bit older.
Of course, you are all aware of the enormous popularity of her […]
Can anyone confirm or deny the Soprano’s season starts in March? I hope so. For those of you who missed Chris’ Soprano’s parties last season, make sure you don’t this season (if applicable). We had some kick ass food and God Bless DVR. It gave us the opportunity to stuff our faces. […]
