When I was in NY cleaning out my apartment for the big move into storage, I stumbled upon a folder full of random papers and notes. I have no idea of the source and I have nobody to attribute this particular gem literally photocopied from a typewritten original - aka: not digital in any way. […]
The London Olympic committee, or whatever the hell it is called, just released the new logo and branding for the 2012 Olympics in London, including a video “brand animation”. I have seen extraordinarily mixed reactions to this including love, hate, indifference, and confusion. I will not be shy about saying that I absolutely hate it.
Love […]
Fox News’ Steve Harrigan subjected himself to “water boarding” performed by some retired military guys, and submitted in seconds to the “torture.” Below is a video of the report and segments of the technique being performed. Essentially they cover your face and breathing hole (nostrils, mouth) in increasing intensity, and pour water into the open […]
Swear Jar. Best beer commercial of all time? I think so.
F*cking awesome.
[thanks to kathlene for sending this along.]
hoops & yoyo are two Shockwave Flash animated characters created by the devils over at Hallmark (who profit from selling cards and gifts for EVERY tragedy known to man). I don’t know who is responsible for hoops & yoyo (apparently some dude named ‘Bob’), but man, this shit is genius.
Apparently, they’ve been around for […]
I really do love honey roasted, coated, whatever peanuts. That sweet AND salty, crispy coating is just one of my favorite things. For some reason, they are pretty hard to find here in Dubai. Today I was at a new “hyper” market in Festival City and I found a new brand. They turned out to […]
Fucking Etisalat monopoly bullshit. I am so fucking tired of this motherfucking place.
So as you know Skype and Flickr, two very important sites to my internet well-being, have been blocked for months and months. Add to that a host of other random sites that would just make me rather happier, plus 90% of the bittorrent […]
Britain’s Got Talent is Simon Cowell and company’s American Idol for Britain. Of course, “British” Idol would have been a good name, but this show bills itself as “any age, any talent” so I guess it is a bit different. In any case, the face below is Simon Cowell in stunned silence.
Wanna know why? Well […]
“Dude, don’t fall backwards, you could die!”
This is serious. You could really get hurt, I think. It’s really hard to tell without trying it for yourself. It’s also fucking hilarious. This is how to secure somebody, or yourself, to a tree without ropes or any other binding. God, I hope this is real.
Here’s the WW2 […]
Officer K. Madhavankutty, aka “McNutty,” is India’s top highway patrol cop on the popular Indian cop-drama hIpS (highway India patrol), basically reprising the role of our very own Officer Frank “Ponch” Poncherello from my childhood favorite, CHiPs. He rides a motorcycle and catches crooks, all the while singing and dancing and fake fighting his way […]
Warning: Very long post with lots of cursing.
I just spent the last two hours sobbing like a little girl while I watched a leaked BitTorrent copy of Michael Moore’s Sicko. I am a changed person, and there isn’t the least bit of humor in that statement for a change.
I am appalled, angry, sad, and sick […]
Isn’t the 3rd Commandment (3/10) something like, “You shall not make for yourself an image, whether in the form of anything that is in heaven above, or that is on the earth beneath, or that is in the water under the earth.”? (Got that translation from Wikipedia. I love the internet.) Doesn’t that mean something […]
An apparently tough guy from Tampa Bay got attached by a rabid bobcat in his backyard, so he did what any self respecting balls-of-steel man would do. He choked it to death, carried it to his neighbors back door, and tossed onto the patio.
I repeat. Balls. Of. Steel.

Die Hard recently got voted the best action movie of all time. I agree. Die hard “With A Vengeance”? Not so much. Bruce Willis is still one cool dude even though he is getting old and Ashton Kutcher is fucking his wife.
Some guys from Guyz Nite made the best tribute song and video ever. You […]
I know I’m a bit of a mac-fanboy Microsoft-hater, but even I’ll admit that the XBox 360 is great and the demonstration they’ve been given of their Surface computer is pretty friggin awesome. But you should check out this video if you’d like to know what some of the other fanboys are thinking…

Jason asked for it, so here you have it. Super-hot Jessica Biel posing in GQ this month. Absolutely stunning.
[from the superficial.]
Bangladeshi photographer, GMB Akash, took these amazing photos of local people hitching free rides on the outsides of their trains. He writes, “Due to Bangladesh’s large population, inadequate seats on the trains and poverty, it is quite common to see a thick layer of people occupying the roof of a train. Frequent accidents, which occur […]
There’s this girl I’ve been getting to know. She’s cute and fun, but we never see each other. Tonight we had a surprise IM and got to learn a bit more about each other. I went too far but it worked out in the end. Names have been changed, spells have been checked, but otherwise […]
Daft Punk’s video for their song “Harder, Better, Faster, Stronger” is…
Side note: It is frigging hard to take a picture of both of your own hands, even with a tripod.

Dramatic Chipmunk is by far the greatest 5 seconds of video ever recorded. The site that originally hosted it was blocked in Dubai, so I have only just seen this for the first time. I honestly almost fell out of my chair. Stunning, stunning cinematic genius.
God I love this. I have now watched it 37 […]
I’ve posted about hilarious dog halloween costumes before. But this one is my new favorite.

If you are like me, you have a misc drawer in the kitchen, and it contains an assortment of medications and other odd around-the-house items, like Duct Tape and shit like that. Here’s some advice. DO NOT under any circumstance keep the Neosporin next to the Krazy Glue. I just narrowly avoided one of the […]
