Benny Hinn – Dark Lord of the Sith

Looks like this televangelist has been under the tutorage of Yoda and turned to the dark-side, rather than the big guy upstairs. OK, so the bearded one can maybe throw some bolts of lightning or smite the odd heathen swine, but that pales in comparison to wielding a lightsaber and striking down his flock like [...]

Mega Crazy Slip & Slide

This behemoth of a slip and slide truly warrants the term epic. For that is what it is. But watching it is slightly annoying because you just want to be there having fun; slipping, sliding. Wonder how long it took to build this monster? And I wonder if they’d mind building one in my back [...]

“Nephicide” by JOGG

Those death-heavy-Satan-black-metal fans get younger every year. In my day you’d sacrifice children as young as that to Golthacultmicon, the slathering, unholy demon-god of metal who only spoke in shrieks and farted distorted guitar sounds. Now they’re the ones running the operation. Still, good to see the young ‘uns projectile vomiting blood.

Creating A Hit: 8 Hour Challenge

All those shitty pop hits that come steaming out of the hit factory like a turd falling from the sky and landing in your piano-shaped swimming pool. You could do better, right? That’s the reasoning behind this guy and his musician mate Dan Bennett aka Transit’s task to create a pop hit in under 8 [...]

Space: The Final Paper Plane Frontier

NASA might be able to put a man on the moon, but they haven’t launched a DIY weather balloon full of 200 paper planes into space yet, carrying messages from the world’s populace on hardcore SD Memory Cards, to the edge of the earth’s atmosphere–36,500 metres up–and paper-bombed Germany with them. That’s innovation!

Pale Kid Raps Faster! (Mac Lethal)

And so. The great rap battle of pale white kids 2011 begins. (Pale kid raps ‘fast’ was SO yesterday!) It’ll go down in history as a time of such cultural richness, of such fertile artistic abundance that the Italian Renaissance will be a barely remembered footnote to it. Paler. Faster. Gayer.

Natalie Portman Golden Globes Laugh Loop

Here’s something to try today, take bets with your co-workers as to how long they can listen to this on repeat in a single sitting. If they go over 3 minutes then they are king/queen of the internets. This is what the Golden Globes is all about; crazy laughter, Brendan Fraser clapping like Errol Flynn’s [...]

Now, If You’ll Excuse Me…

Where would we be without the supercut. We’d find ourselves with not much to do but watch pr0n and, well, watch more pr0n. Not such a bad existence. But sometimes your eyes need a break, just like your wrist does, and that’s where the supercut comes in. This one involves people excusing themselves. Now, if [...]

Boxes in the Hood

Boxes are, like, totally dope yo. Arts and crafts is just the most pimpin’ shiz you ever do witnizz and this song pays dues to that most gangster of containers, the box. It’s about time too, we be using them for all sorts of storage since, like, 40 years or so. Maybe 45. “If you [...]

Pink Ponies

All you social media gurus out there would do well to watch this video. Again. And again. Maybe take some notes too, because these guys totally owned when it came to sorting out an 8-year-old girl’s birthday party. They had a strategy, let hype build organically, and targeted the right people. Her friends. And then [...]

“Talk about get a life” Stephen Fry on Internet Trolls

Stephen Fry, the fat gay Twitter queen of the internet who’s actually a comic creation of PG Wodehouse, dribbles on about trolls and getting distressed by their trolling ways. Whatever Stephen, why don’t you take your iPad and shove it up your saggy buttock hole you jumped up piece of overstretched scrotum. Lolz.
