more animated gifs!!!

The inspiration for my avatar...



Sweet crash from Hot Rod

Boob punch!!!

Since we're watching Superbad in my office today, i might as well post this awesome clip from it. I don't know if this clip was the cause, but there are a LOT of boob punching videos on youtube...seriously, it's weird. This clip is hilarious though.

This one goes out to Wade...

...who will probably never visit this site.

But because we both love GI Joe so much, i thought i'd post this throw-back Cobra Command costume...bitchin.

Animated GIF Test...start with a creepy one.

I hope this works...if it does, it will be the first of MANY animated gifs.

I love "Demotivator" posters

Usually they're excuses for porny shit or jailbate shots...this one's just kinda cute.

A double-amputee gets a mermaid's tail made for her!!!

Wowowow, this reminds me of that south park when kyle's dad becomes part dolphin. Except not as hilarious.

I love that 3D street art

This is a wicked video that showcases an artist named Edgar Mueller. This is one of a few amazing and massive things he's done.



Here are some shots from some other ones he's done. They're amazing.



Check out his site: www.edgarmueller.com

Sweet nunchucking action.

This is a wicked video of Bruce Lee playing ping pong with nunchucks. I'll let you decide if it's real or fake (i always hate when people go on and on about whether something's real or fake.)



This is another wicked video, from the same nokia campaign.

Must See! An all glass house with sliding exterior walls

amazing. this house is made out of glass, but has an exterior that slides over the rest of the house. Check this video out for sure!



I guess these people don't throw many stones...

This shit'll fuck up your eyes for sure.

I saw this in a small version on facebook as some stupid iq test. I looked for the photo for a long time but couldn't find it. Then, like all things, once i stopped looking for it, i found it.

I'm back with a vengeance! Snorting kitten video is step 1

A classic little bit of video-trickery. Good times!



Here's the opposite (not a cat snorting some fat english comedian):

Start your day off with a double knock-out

I've seen this kinda thing in MMA rings, but never with a golf ball...pretty epic.



Incredible Golf Ball Ricochet Accident - video powered by Metacafe

One of the greatest PSAs in history

I saw this with Emily as part of an "Accidentally Funny" screening at Toronto's Short Film Festival. We lost our shit, let me tell you.

Saved by a weave!

This is all over the internet, so i figured i should post it.

Another fetish that if you're actually into you're a f*cking weirdo

This is new to me, but apparently there's a whole site based on dinosaurs fucking robots...i know...amazing. There's so much shit on the internet and this just proves how weird some of it is.

Check it out: www.dinsosaursfuckingrobots.com

A cute dog video now to try to counter-act all the cute cat videos

This is Stains from a show about teaching your animals who's boss. this poor bastard loves cupcakes and these cruel people love torturing Stains. The result is comedic gold.

Hoping this is all part of evolution...

...There's been quite a bit of news lately about kids being born with certain "disfigurements" that would actually prove to be quite fortuitous for them, in the right situation.

First is an article about a boy in China born with "cat eyes." Apparently he can see as well in the night as we can in the day and is eyes freakin' glow in the dark! Bitchin. The full story is here.




Then there was the story of the kid born with twelve fingers and toes - all fully functioning. As far as advantages, i'm sure he'll kick ass at video games and cat's cradle...also, he'd be a great model for future GTA 4 posters.

Full story about "Baby boy born in bay area with 12 fingers and 12 toes" here.

Parenting FAIL

Although this makes me look forward to being a father...just think of how young and impressionable they are. Think of it as the opposite of not being able to teach an old dog new tricks...with young ones, you can teach them any trick you want!

The Leprechaun in Mobile Alabama

I can't believe i forgot about this video...an internet CLASSIC.

Judging from the amateur sketch, there's most likely a leprechuan or an acorn in that tree...

Funny People Trailer

The next film from Judd Apatow, looks pretty fuckin sad as well as pretty funny. Looking forward to it.

An amazing concept - stop motion with paintings

This 5 minute video was created by using over 6,000 paintings and shot at 20 paintings per second. Nuts. It took him 2 years to create and it's an amazing end-product.


Khoda from Reza Dolatabadi on Vimeo.

Fleet Foxes make some wonderful music and beautiful videos.

So beautiful, shit.

For Balders: Holy cow this video's so awesome. AW FUCK!


Fleet Foxes - A Take Away Show from La Blogotheque on Vimeo.

Beautiful video

A short and sweet video that does a beautiful job of combining digital effects and some nice and subtle camera work.


irregular flow from 4khz on Vimeo.

Yeah...good beats.

This shit is catchy and with a positive message. It's nice to dance too. And that's good exercise. Not that exercising is good...

A poet AND stripper?! Wowowowow.



And...a little less funky...turn up the volumptuous on this one...

Another great public television video

When you combine the deadly arts of public television, shitty band and either the 70s or 80s, you've got a killer combo. This is just one of those amazing examples.

Quote of the week

After working so hard over the last couple of nights to unlock all the characters for Street Fighter 4, i must say that possibly the best highlight was when Akuma came leaping over these huge statues, landed in the arena and told me:

"My fists bleed death"

Amazing. Simply brilliant. Video games that are originally Japanese and then translated into English have given us some of the best quotes ever. I must say, the most entertaining is from the intro to the 1989 game Zero Wing. This is the intro and it's fuckin classic.


There's lots of remixes too...but they kinda suck.

A PSA is a great way to start your day.

This one is particularly fun. Maybe this'll convince all you smokers out there to put down the cigarettes and pick up a mic...or something...

American Apparel "branding" is amazing to some and awesome to others

And ridiculous to pretty much everyone.

If you haven't been to their site, you should. The homepage features a collection of photo series, most of which showcase employees wearing some of the more popular designs. For instance, there's a slideshow of some busty employee (all models are employees) showing off the Light Aqua Tank Thong...from all angles to be sure. There's also a new series that pushes the boundaries, even for American Apparel, that shows "Irene in Red Leg Warmers" and NOTHING else. And that's just a taste (so to speak).

Their print and poster ads have been another contentious issue, highlighting underwear, socks and leggings by having their models wear nothing else. One of my personal favourites is an ad for a thong shot with the models ass in the air with the camera close enough to capture some hairs that her brazilian waxer missed. I can't find it online, but if i do, i'll post it. Here are some other "racy" ads.







Like it or not, these ads have been successful. They've garnered quite a bit of controversy, which works wonders for the company. They've taken on the immigration policies in the Unitited States in their ads and have even done what they called "social parody" by using an image of Woody Allen (and were quickly sued for $10 million by him). It's a weird company, one that's given us a new look at branding, the role of the corporation in politics and society and the manipulation of what can only be called propoganda to define themselves. I've been really interested in their ads and, mostly, the reaction to them.

Check out the site...www.americanapparel.net and they've also got a youtube channel.

I had a sad realization today...

Pretty much every day, my mind goes on these tangents in which i envision these really strange things happening to me. They go on for a long time and almost always involve an argument with some random person, friend or stranger, or me getting terribly injured and the events that would follow. For instance, today i pictured myself taking this little shortcut over a couple of stones that i use in the summer when leaving the subway station. Due to the ice and snow, however, i imagined myself slipping and falling forward, slamming my teeth against the cold hard rocks and destroying four or five teeth in the front of my mouth. I imagined the embarassment of people watching as i spit the blood and teeth out of my mouth, asking them to call an ambulance while i call Scott at work to tell him i won't be on time today. It was really graphic. My mom would say I watch too many scary movies and that's probably true.

The sad realization i had is that these are my daydreams. I don't lie on the side of grassy hillsides watching clouds go by and daydreaming about eating icecream while catching butterflies. My daydreams are about me getting horribly injured or how i would handle myself in an argument. Random. And probably really revealing.

I've learned that there is some weird shit on the internit...

Like:

1. Women who dress up as Santa and have animal masks on that walk around in their room and show you their iPhones. To be honest, i'd say the weirdest part about this next video is that she DOESN'T get naked...



2. "Wet look" - I don't know if this is purely a sexual thing or just an aesthetic, but what i have learned from my research is that satin and leather are favourite fabrics for wet look...i can understand the satin...but leather...seems uncomfortable. and tight. This next video is like a late-night sex-talk commercial but with big-bootied women in tight pants standing knee-deep in the ocean.



3. CFNM & CMNF - Short for "Clothed female, nude male" and "Clothed male, nude female," this is another recent discovery for me and, frankly, i don't even know how i found it. It's definitely porn, but searches for it on youtube return hilarious results. One conclusion i've come to in the last 4 or 5 minutes while searching youtube for a video that's not too dirty is that with CFNM, often it's about humiliating the male involved. And then there's CMNM, "Clothed male, nude male" which is the gay equivalent.

Here's a video for CFNM that's most likely NSFW:
(thanks to the user named "cfnmdudefreak" for this wonderful contribution)


And then there's this: CMNM which stands for Chuc Mung Nam Moi and is incredible karaoke...

I think it was Steph who introduced me to Dimitri Martin

Think of this is my thank you. He's pretty f-in funny.



This is a much longer version

Killshot trailer

...looks okay. BUT, it's got a *killer* cast...Mickey Rourke, Thomas Jane, Rosario Dawson AND the punk long-haired kid from Third Rock from the Sun?! Wowowow.



Also, they totally say that the killers come from the Toronto Mafia...so that's pretty wicked.

I'm totally stealing this from Caroline...

...but it's a good trailer, so i'll add it. It's for a movie called Franklyn.

She likened it to Dark City meets V for Vendetta and i'm likely to agree. I also loved Dark City, if you haven't seen it, you really should.

This trailer gets a passing "Quaid"

I like dennis quaid, i don't care what the celebrity rags say. And this movie actually looks kinda good in an "End of Days" meets "Seven" kinda way. Despite my enjoyment of dennis quaid, if you gave me a movie that had morgan freeman, arnold Schwarzenegger and brad pitt in it, that'd be awesome.

This is a trailer for The Horsement

i love horror movies

and this is supposed to be a great creature feature. I'm dying to see it. We should all see it.

I love movie trailers.

I've always wanted to go to the theatres and watch, like, 2 hours of trailers. So i created it...this is the third so far, but there'll be more.

This is the hardcore answer to that bullshit Paul Blart.

Observe & Report:

My posting this will prove those who say i have terrible taste in movie right...

but i don't care.

New Transformers Trailer

Looks way better than the first one. You can actually see the fuckin transformers in it...

Christian Bale-itis is contagious, apparently.

I wasn't going to post this, but people in the office are talking about it so i felt i should.

Straight and narrow or your soul gets cast...

In keeping with the theme of old-school hip hop, after i "discovered" tcq, i soon fell in love with Slick Rick. How can you not? Here's this ugly-ass dude with terrible teeth and an eye patch, who's singing is so, well, slick, that you're willing to look past all his external failures and believe that women truly are all over him. He's inspiring, really. He's got a good story too...in the early 90s he shot some innocent dude and his cousin and went to jail. Then in 2002, he was arrested by the Immigration and Naturalization Service (if a name ever spoke to north american xenophobia, it's this one) after performing on a boat in the caribbean. because of some legal bullshit, he was supposed to be deported but ended up just staying in jail for 17 months while being repeatedly refused bail. Pretty wicked.

Anyway, this is a great video...

Can I kick it?

Yes, i can.

I'm so embarassed to admit this, cause i'm kind of a music snob (as some people have called me), but i didn't discover this song until the end credits of a show called Fastlane that me and a few friends were obsessed with in 2nd year. Ever since, i've loved this song and find it one of the best songs to listen to in early spring when people are happy and walking around and the sun isn't just a welcome respite from the cold but is actually a truly warming sensation. You know, when you can smell the warmth and the changing seasons. Best time of the year.



For those that are curious, here's the wikipedia entry for Fastlane
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fastlane_(TV_series)

By far the sexiest thing i've posted

The other day my parents were wondering, given my total canine up-bringing, why i'm so obsessed with cats and funny cat videos. Other than the much greater number of hilarious cat videos, i couldn't offer a truly satisfying answer.

This video explains it all. Now that i've seen it, it's all so clear to me.

Clearly a video game theme today...

...i just got back from NOT getting street fighter 4, so instead of reading the manual obsessively, i'll just check out some other video game stuff. This is an old video of a fake mario level with hilarious commentary. It gets old, but watch until you're bored.

Amazing dancer at a sports game...

...this has to be fake, but it's about the most inspirational thing i've seen in a long time. Next time i go to a local sports team's game, i'm pretty much sure i'm going to have to get drunk enough to do this.

I love Alec Baldwin

and he loves his wii. This is a great skit from SNL and it kinda makes me thing of Balders...he has a wii, he loves Wario Land: Shake It and he's almost "beat it."

I'm so glad Alec Baldwin has been able to rise against the ridicule that his last name provokes to become a pretty damn funny guy.

Street Fighter 4 Review

If you didn't think i was obsessed before, my posting of the review should prove it to you.

Big day today!!!

Street Fighter 4 is out now! For a taste of why i'm so excited, check out this video.



Fun fun fun!!!

Happy Valentine's Day Motherfuckers!

Another really great game

RaidenX, a top-down scrolling shooter is a lot of fun and not super hard. Granted, i've only played the first level...

i'm only including the link because the game is too loud even when not being played, so it drowned out all the wonderful videos and stuff.

here's the link

http://www.freeworldgroup.com/onlinegames/gameindex/raidenbig.htm

Great game...great game.

HELICOPTER GAME!!! On my BLOG

it's the new roflcopter.

Post your best score, i'm dying to know how good people are at this game.


Free Flash Games

He's Joaquin out of my heart...

I actually don't care much for either Joaquin Phoenix or David Letterman, but I can't help but be interested in JP's latest whatever-the-fuck-you-call-it. He's pulling his own Cat Stevens and it seems he's feeling pretty damn pretentious about the whole thing too. This interview on letterman has to be the most awkward thing i've ever seen.



On a side note, that new option of being able to add little notes to a youtube video is a horrible addition.

You wanna dance like Swayze?

You cwayze!

This video has it all...amazing hair, patrick swayze and patrick swayze's mother! Amazing.

I'm so tired. I'm so tired.

But i want to be so excited. Be so excited.

When fridays roll around, i'm often so tired from the preceding week nights out that i'm mildly zombie-like. The solution? Caffeine pill addiction! I considered it, but after witnessing what happened to Jesse Spano when she developed such an addiction, i've decided to just drink a lot of coffee. But, for those who enjoy a good old freak out put to music, here's a good example. And then after that we'll have a little number from Allison, the poor girl who was addicted to enhalants. Let's watch.



And here's Allison

The sneezing panda for anyone living under a rock who hasn't seen it...

...here it is..

awesome cat

This one goes out to Saeed

He asked me to dedicate this song in particular to him...sooooo here it is.

.rec you-self

This is a spanish horror movie upon which the new movie Quarantine is based (aka stolen). It looks wicked and quarantine looks okay.

I'm dying to see it...caroline...?

wicked motherfuckin movie preview - Ong Bak 2

The first one was great but this one looks even better!
Tony Jaa fights in all sorts of stylez, looks awesome.

A great campaign and a great cause

Check out www.spreadthefeeling.ca

We're no longer donating peanut butter jars, but it'd be great to get as many Peanut Butter Hearts sent.

And check the site again soon for your chance to make your own peanut butter art.

Another AWESOME music video

Great music and awesome visuals...a good party song for sure.

Toots and the Maytals - Funky Kingston


If you ever wanted to see what it would look like if superman and spiderman (played, in this instance, by a woman) danced together...this is the video for you.

I love when good music and good art come together

These two songs by fleet foxes with videos done by Sean Pecknold are perfect examples of just that.

Some advertising is great...

...like this unaired Bud Light ad...hilarious.

For the love of hack

i used to be a huge hacky sacker and i always had hopes of becoming really good at it. It seemed like all the really good hackers were in really good shape, but they had the shortest shorts...these guys below are really good at this Chinlone stuff...

See more funny videos and funny pictures at CollegeHumor.

There's a musician in all of us.

accept this guy.

and this guy...

My go-to party song

Whenever i'm at a youtube party and people are putting on music videos from youtube to dance to, this is the one i always use. *I wish* i could listen to it all day....

Fuck, damn Universal Music Group doesn't let youtube offer embedding...but here's the link.

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=icr0eW1fRSs&feature=related

I was at a little get together...

...and i was told that Bon Iver is the best shit ever. So i checked it out and it is pretty good. Great melancholy shit. Here's Flume.



This is "For Emma"


And "Skinny Love"

Two more cat posts...

...for now. I should do a daily cat post. I should also get a cat, so I can have a justification for my obsession.

Clearly I ♥ cats (thanks to caroline for that heart)

This one goes out to Saeed & Kaezad

But it's only possible because Steph found it.

Another great death scene

This one's from City of the Living Dead. Skip to about 2:00 for the good shit.

Found it!

I LOVE when you find what you're looking for on the internet. Especially when it takes a bit of time and the use of the right words for searching. But shit, this is a great scene from Hatchet.

Another horror movie that's great.

Hatchet. It's wicked...gory (gorey?), cheesy...perfect. There's one scene i want to find, but until then, here's the trailer.

This shit's fucked...

Seriously. It contains one of the most fucked up murder scenes i've ever seen. That sounds twisted as shit. But i love my horror movies. It's from a movie called "Seed." I may post some "Hatchet" scenes too...wicked horror too.



I don't think the song is from the movie. In the actual movie, there's really visceral sounds.

UPDATE - added the original video...with the fucked up sound.

Keeping up with the cat theme...

...my experience with Roxie really turned me into a cat person. It's amazing that there are so many more cat videos than there are dog videos...telling.

Continuing the music theme...

...shit, i'm obsessed with this blogging thing. Here's a nice little video by a guy named Bill Callahan, a member of the band Smog...it's good shit.

Let's add a little diddy...

Played by The Bicycles, a band from Toronto, this is "Gotta Get Out." If anyone hear's that they're coming to town, let me know for sure.

All. Senior. Citizens. Should. Have. Life Alert.

Period.

Most companies should do music videos.

That's just a fact. What's key is that those in the video need to be
a) unhip as shit
b) hopefully really religious
c) old
d) musically untalented
e) ugly
f) fat (not necessary, but it helps)
g) stupid
h) lacking any senes of self-respect

Examples:





Not a commercial, but a PSA, which is just as good

I love Flight of the Conchords

And so should you...

Here's why:

Mer-motherfuckin-maids:


Sello Tape:


Leggy Blonde (wait for the end)


More to come I'm sure.

Here's a GIFt for everyone

I love animated gifs, they're distilled hilarity that continuously repeats. Now that i've mastered the blog, maybe i'll gif them a try...waka waka waka. Here are some videos of GIFs. I also enjoy sexy gifs, but i'm not going to post'em. You can find those at www.giftube.com ...or so i hear.

OMG i hearts the NOMs

Last year for halloween, i was going to go as a lolcat or loladam...i didn't. But this cat is cute.

Laughing at people is okay.

I think that's what one needs to realize in order to truly enjoy the majority of shit i'll be posting on here.

This clip has been enjoyed by most people and created a great degree of discussion when it first "hit the scene." People thought it was real and that the guy was an asshole. This clip explains it all, giving you a good sense of who "Boemerang" really is. It's all fake though, it's from a show called "In De Gloria." For those that are interested, there's an article about him on wikipedia... http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/In_De_Gloria



This is the longer version too, with subtitles. It features a guy with a deep voice that just sets Boemerang off. Wicked.

The faceplant that gave birth to my love of faceplants

Actually, that's a lie, i hate faceplants - they make me uncomfortable, just like watching skateboarders destroy their nuts or shatter their arms...

but this, this is funny shit.

Shit, i've always wanted to do this.

To the point that I've actually considered faking it. One day i will actually faint and now that i've said this, no one will put smelling salts under my nose.



as a kid, did you and your friends ever choke yourselves until you passed out? Me neither, but kids were doing it...

One of the funniest clips out there...

...the will arnett sex tape. Lots of Will Arnett and just the right amount of sex.

Unless i can fix it, you gotta click the link to see the video in all its glory.

Will Arnett - Human Giant SEX TAPE from Will Arnett

Oldies but goodies. Now you know...

...and knowing is half the battle.

If you laugh, you're a double racist...

...and unlike wrongs, it doesn't make a right.

Calgon, get me the fuck outta here.

We all have those days when the kids are screaming and all we want is a soft bubble-bath to soothe our frazzled nerves. Sometimes a bath isn't an option, so we enjoy beers or joints.

Consider this blog as your virtual Calgon, that'll take you away whenever you need it.

Holy shitz it's the internitz

Well, i have no idea where to start, but I'm here and I'm ready to share. There's a whole world of stuff out there that's hilarious, weird, scary and all that good shitand I'll do my best to bring it here.

There'll be some awkward stuff as I'm getting started - learning the ropes and such.

Let's do this shit.
