This guy is just all kinds of awesome, especially when he starts in with the headbanging.

ShamWow

I caught this gem on TV over the weekend.  The host sort of looks like Billy Mays and Ryan Seacrest had a kid.  I’m not sure why he is wearing a headset either…maybe he’s playing Xbox in between takes.

with 3 comments

Cracked has compiled 10 very unsettling PSA’s.  Here are my favorite two, but definitely check out the full list.

Smokey the Bear – Seems like a normal PSA, but then turns horrifying.

Boys Beware -  In which we learn that being gay is a disease sort of like smallpox.

Mary Kay propaganda film

without comments

This 70’s era Mary Kay indoctrination film just creeps me out.  Although I am somewhat partial to when Mary Kay makes her first appearance looking like drag queen Jesus.

Florida Senate committee passes guns-at-work bill

with 2 comments

The Florida Senate Judiciary Committee passed a bill that will allow people to keep guns in their cars while at work.  It boils down to a property rights vs gun rights argument, and I don’t really want to weigh in on it here.  Instead, I would like to focus on this unbelievably stupid quote from committee chairman Sen. Alex Villalobos on how this bill will reduce workplace violence:

 ”When somebody is murdered, which is already against the law, it’s a tragedy,” said Villalobos. “I’m pretty certain that there are going to be more tragedies but, before there are more tragedies, I believe there will be tragedies avoided.”

Yeah.  Well said, Senator Villalobos.

The Ballad of Bilbo Baggins

with 2 comments

Recorded in 1967, Leonard Nimoy sings about Bilbo Baggins while … stuff … happens around him. I’m not sure if this should be classified as nightmare fuel or insanity fuel.

The zany antics of the SuperFriends

without comments

I prefer to think of the SuperFriends as a surrealistic masterpiece, instead of an incoherent mess.  How did the Legion of Doom do anything?  In this first clip, they fight worse than the Three Stooges.  And why doesn’t Black Lightning have any pants?

This second clip makes me wonder how the SuperFriends ever prevailed at anything.  Compare, for instance, Aquaman’s  jet ski to Black Manta’s bad ass ship.  Also, take note of how Aquaman floods the entire west coast while trying to put out a fire.
