japanese library torture

This is an older clip of a Japanese game show set in a library. It is set in a library because they need to be quiet there. Unfortunately, the game is a series of torturous things that happen to the person who draws the torture card and they then have to be quiet through their punishment. Meanwhile, their competitors also have to be quiet and not laugh while the punishment happens. Its kind of like being at school and laughing while passing notes, though instead of notes people have to do icky things.

a day with the police

This is a repurposed clip featuring cops that was used in the MTV2 show Wonder Showzen - which is like Sesame Street on crack (but in a good way). Lets hear what interesting things the Wonder Showzen kids have to say about the police:

tetris theme song

This is an interesting musical performance of the tetris theme song. It is done by 3 people while blowing glass bottles to conjure up the sound. Good times.

what's my line dali-ized

This is a clip of the 1950s game show What's My Line featuring artist Salvador Dali as the guest who the panel had to guess what he did - blindfolded. It is really funny because Dali is so multi-talented that he would agree to most questions and ended up confusing the panel.

indian superman and spider girl

This is a clip of an Indian Superman flying and dancing with his lady love Spiderman girl. They fly, they get invisible, they fight crime, they make out, and I think the best part is about 4 minutes in when they land in the middle of what looks like an audition for the Thriller video and have a bit of a dance party. The green screen cloud dancing at the beginning is pretty funny too. Check it out.

squirrels gone wild

We all know about the infamous Girls Gone Wild where wasted ladies lift their tops for the camera - but did you know squirrels had their own version of the show? Well they do - and its pretty strange...

hamstar wars

OK. I don't know exactly what is going on in this video but here is my interpretation: There is this Japanese show where they act out Star Wars with hamsters and a kitty cat as the dark lord of space who is plotting to get the hamsters. People who are involved with the show give the animals voices and speak for them, There is also this random bit where they make the hamsters squeeze into tubes and another where they are tightrope walking - both just for kicks. This has to be the strangest and yet most amazing 7:44 of the day. Enjoy!

face dancing?

I really don't know quite what to call this... This guy is showing how expressive he can be - in synch with music.

polka party

Polka Dick is a Funny or Die web series where clips of an old Leonard Nimoy show gets re-edited and polka-ed out. Instead of taking on intergalactic menaces, Leonard is spreading the word that "You can't Polka and use that..."

how to ride a bike

This is a really clever fake instructional video. It is supposed to show how to ride a bike and is really funny and made to look like it was a found video from the 80s. I bet you can pick up some swell tips.

another odd japanese commercial

Here we have another weird Japanese commercial. This time, we have a Little Red Riding Hood in the forest where she encounters woodland animals and proceeds to do a little dance. Then she encounters a raccoon and, well... watch and see.

your studio and you

This is a video that Trey Stone and Matt Parker (of South Park fame) were commissioned to do in 1995 for Universal Studios. It is made to look like an old timey video but is really funny and has lots of cameos. The two parts are here.

hidden innuendoes

This is a clip from a British children's TV show called Rainbow. This wasn't a typical "for the kiddies" episode as it was a special sketch produced for the staff for Christmas. They really got into their theme - pretty much every other sentence is some sort of sexual innuendo. How many did you catch?

behind the fake music

Remember Behind the Music? That was the VH1 show that followed a band from its humble beginnings to its happy (and usually destructive) time at the top, then through its plunging fall. The video below is a really well done parody of the show following a band you have never heard of. The beauty of it - they hit all the story arcs that one would expect from a Behind the Music episode.

talking to your cat about drugs

There comes a time, as a parent, when you must have certain difficult discussions with your children pets. This is a video documenting one dad's talk with his kid cat about the dangers of using drugs. Catnip is a gateway drug, you know.

get your music vest

You are about to witness the single greatest ad for the single greatest technology-meets-fashion accessory EVER. Behold, the MUSIC VEST. Seriously folks? The commercial is beyond amazing for a myriad of reasons but I want the name and number of everyone who ordered one of these so I can call them and ask them what they were thinking.

w.t.h. bruce?

This is a video of Bruce Springsteen (aka THE BOSS) singing a rockin' tune with his band about Microsoft Vista. I don't know if this was a commercial or something that was produced for a conference but what the hell?? This is really strange. Though I do love the shot of the guy in the suit totally rocking out. Rock out, little buddy, its ok.

The rest of the video is fun with balloons. Good 'ol harmless pranking.

square dance

I'm sorry - what is going on here? It is the official video of the "Square Dance" song by Kibe Loco who appear to be a comedy troupe of some sort. Check out their spiffy new dance - I am sure it will catch on like wildfire.


Where can I get those shoes??

This is another funny skit from Whitest Kids U 'Know - this time they examine the hard times of being a ninja on the first day of class. Let's ponder this a moment, shall we?

surfing pup

This is just random enough to post. This is a video of a dog who likes to surf. At the beginning he is riding along on his owner's board then we see him rocking his own boogie board. He certainly surfs better than I do!

twirling bear

A bear in a Japanese zoo is entertaining the crowd by twirling a stick like a kung-fu master. He looks to be having more fun than our ice skating friend.

...Or this guy will rap at you! This is "Devistatin' Dave the Turntable Slave" performing The Zip Zap Rap and telling kids to stay away from drugs. Don't smoke that Coke, ok?

Have you ever pondered what animal mascots do when they aren't working? Well apparently they booze it up and try to take out one another. Here is a clip of that in action - complete with freaked out kid.

How do you think animals act? A group of French people decided to take on just that very question and act out how some of their favorite animals act.

how to make a viral video

This is a video based on this article for Tech Crunch. It outlines ways to make videos become super popular on the internets.

laser cats - in 3D!

This is the second third installment of Laser Cats from Saturday Night Live. The selling point of this skit (to Lorne) is that there is 1 magical scene in 3-D!! My favorite part is the laser puppy fighting with the laser cat. Adorable to the max!

akon calls t-pain

What happens when 2 rappers call each other? Lots of vocoder effects of course!

Instead, I am out buying flowers...

that's not right..?

I am 99% sure this is for some comedic act - but it is a little creepy. Here is a duet with a guy and a kid and the guy is getting his pedo-on - licking him and the like. The kid is laughing so it must be a joke, right?

youtube flashback: the smiths

Ok, so I haven't done one of these in a while so I guess it was time for another. This time, we have a lovely assortment of videos from the ever-loved The Smiths. Moz was definitely rocking some crazy do's back in the day. Enjoy!

I don't know much about this photo except it appears to be a beaded spider web. It kind of reminds me of one of those poor spiders on drugs.

baking bread is like making love

Remember my last bread-making video? That was quite amazing but this next one takes it to another level. I don't know who he is but he seems to be a blissed out Mystery-wannabe of the bread baking world. He made a loooong video to tell you that baking bread is like making love. Click the pic to go to the video and hear him tell you all about his theory.

say it ain't so, rocky

Did you know Sylvester Stallone was in a porn flick? Well, he was, and it was called The Italian Stallion (though originally titled The Party at Kitty and Stud's). We saw this trailer last year at the screening of the Daft Punk movie and found it quite amusing - hopefully you will too!

the art of the foley

The guys over at Human Giant decided to spoof Foley Artists who are responsible for making enhancements to the sound on film. They do things like sizzle water on a hot pan to make a sound similar to a downpour. Let's watch Ken Prescott do his job, shall we?
