Bacon Rocket
Mar 8th
What do you get when you cross bacon with a rocket? A bacon rocket of course. Some resourceful chaps from the UK (I’m assuming) decided to find out how well a rocket made out of bacon would fly. Not very well, it turns out. Maybe ham? Someone jump on it. Honestly, I don’t get the whole craze about bacon. Maybe because I was never raised on the stuff. I do know a few people who would kill over bacon. Something for everyone, I suppose. The song was fun though. “Bacon and rocketry, in perfect harmony!” [via Geekologie]
Germaphobe
Mar 7th
Here’s another video from the Fully Sick Rapper. I really love this guy’s stuff. His videos and lyrics are kind of weird, and the beats are sick. Here’s to the guy getting better, but hopefully even if he does he’ll continue making videos.
Mega Shark vs Airplane
Mar 5th
Somewhere, someone thought it would be a great idea to make a film which involves a giant, and what i can only assume is magic, shark. Oh, and a giant octopus too. Can’t forget that. It stars Lorenzo Lamas of Renegade “fame”, and although I haven’t seen it and probably never will, I can assume it’s probably a horrible, horrible movie. Now, I don’t mind watching movies that are cheesy and over the top, but from the following clip, this thing looks neigh unwatchable. I don’t even think the MST3K guys can make me want to watch something as stupid as this. Check out the clip of the magic shark eating an airplane after the jump. [via Boing Boing] More >
Tuberculosis Rap
Mar 3rd
Fully Sick Rapper, aka Christiaan Van Vuuren from Australia has been stuck in quarantine for TB for months. In order to not go completely insane, he started making his own rap videos.
I was eventually let out of hospital on the 2nd Jan, but then brought back in on the 18th Jan and diagnosed with a more serious form of TB… As a result, I have been back in quarantine since the 18th Jan, and all up now I have spent 55 days on the inside of a single room in hospital… This is starting to take it’s toll on my mental stability, and this song is about the impact (or lack thereof) it has had so far.
Now I don’t know whether or not I want him to get well. I’d like to see a few more of these. P.S. Chris, it’s a Clonetrooper helmet. [via Boing Boing]
Obama Caught Lip-Synching
Mar 3rd
Oh, how the mighty have fallen. Something like this I can believe happening to Ashlee Simpson and probably a slew of other “artists”, but Obama? America’s sweetheart? Simply unbelievable. I don’t know how he’s going to recover after this. With all the controversy and plummeting approval ratings, America is going to have a hard time trusting daddy ‘Bama going forward.

Ted’s Birthday
Mar 2nd
Improv Everywhere are a group of people who are responsible for some of the most hilarious pranks around. They’ve brought us hilarious stunts such as Slo-Mo Home Depot (my personal favorite), the Best Buy prank, and certainly not least No Pants Subway Ride. In this prank they pick out a guy at a bar at random and pretend it’s his birthday. I would say more, but check out the video for yourself. They actually did it a few times. You can read all about it at their site. [Improv Everywhere]
Epic Beard Man Documentary
Mar 2nd
Well, I guess by now this is getting a little long in the tooth, but I might as well post it because it’s new and semi intriguing. Someone went ahead and did a two part documentary. I haven’t watched it yet because, well, because I’m lazy. But I gather it’s about the fight, his plans for the future, maybe a cage match, and a world tour. Who knows? Either way check it out. And be sure to look out for the full line of EBM gear. Hats, lunchboxes, cereal, stuffed animals, etc. Second part after the jump. [via Boing Boing]

N. Korean Traffic Girls
Mar 1st
Apparently in North Korea, they find it’s much easier to have women direct traffic instead of stop lights. The traffic girls, whose uniforms were designed by Kim Jong himself, use robotic movements and can only turn counter clockwise. Check out the videos for a nice glimpse into weirdo N. Korean society. Two more videos after the jump. [Super Punch]

Amazing Bread Flinger
Feb 26th
Now I know why most companies want to outsource everything overseas to India. It’s not because of the reducing costs, or increasing business focus, or reducing risk. It’s because they can do this shit. [via Boing Boing]
Juggalo News
Feb 25th
Whether you’re a “gangster Juggalo ninja, or a “whack pussy bitch”, I’m sure you can agree that this video is pretty fucking hilarious. Whoop Whoop and all that shit. Don’t miss the hilarious scrolling ticker at the bottom.
Also, make sure you check out the Juggalo Name Generator while you’re at it. Apparently mine is Super Balls. That just begs the question of which of my exes they talked to for that one. Super Balls OUT!
