United Breaks Guitars

Fri, 10 Jul 2009 11:42:08 -0500

Here's a good way to get your consumer complaint handled: Make a viral video. That's what Canadian musician Dave Carroll did after his guitar was broken by some United Airlines employees while he was changing planes in Chicago. Carroll went through a months-long ordeal to get it fixed, but never settled with the airline. So Carroll made "United Breaks Guitars," which as of Thursday night had more than 700,000 views. That's in a matter of days. The Chicago Tribune ran a story Thursday. Now it's gone nationwide. Right now, someone at United is really wishing they'd just given Carroll some travel vouchers.

Ridiculous informercial for the Colgate Wisp

Fri, 10 Jul 2009 10:03:51 -0500

A not-real commercial from Black20.com for the tiny toothbrush-on-the-go. I think I may steal this line for my Facebook page: "Life is about fun and watermelon. Make it last."

Elderly Russian women sing Britney Spears

Fri, 10 Jul 2009 08:00:46 -0500

Best rendition of a Britney Spears song ever. This apparently is a commercial for a language school in St. Petersburg (Russia, not Florida).

Stockholm Flash Mob Tribute to Michael Jackson

Pretty cool video coming out of Stockholm-- a flash mob pays tribute to Michael Jackson by dancing to "Beat It."

Fox and Friends host: "We keep marrying other species and other ethnics"

Thu, 09 Jul 2009 11:45:17 -0500

Ahh, Fox and Friends. Always a source of enlightening infotainment, yesterday's show was a doozy. Host Brian Kilmeade decided to wax philosophic on his idea of racial purity and eugenics as he declares, "The problem is the Swedes have pure genes. They marry other Swedes, that's the rule. Finns marry other Finns; they have a pure society. In America we marry everybody. We will marry Italians and Irish." Apparently Mr. Kilmeade failed biology 101. And high school biology. And middle school biology... Thanks to my buddy Vinod for passing along this gem.

Michael Jackson's face in a tree stump

Thu, 09 Jul 2009 10:21:34 -0500

One woman in Stockton, California, believes that she can see Michael Jackson's face in a tree stump. Of course, a local television reporter must investigate.

Thu, 09 Jul 2009 10:02:32 -0500

Bruno (Sacha Baron Cohen) appears during the Today Show's 8 a.m. hour this morning to discuss his new movie and quest for fame. It goes about as awkwardly as you might expect. Watch and cringe:

In honor of 7/8/9: a stupid movie

Wed, 08 Jul 2009 16:31:46 -0500

Why was 6 afraid of 7? Only this Cracked.com movie dares to answer it in this hilarious parody of "number-based" horror flicks we've all seen before.

Reality show contestants say "I'm not here to make friends"

Wed, 08 Jul 2009 12:06:47 -0500

The greatest cliche of reality TV show is the old "I'm not hear to make friends." Whether it's fighting for $1 million on "Survivor" or a chance at romance with one of the women rejected by Poison singer Bret Michaels, reality show contestants must keep their eyes on the prize (even if it is the love of Ray J). The second most overused phrase on reality shows: "I'm keeping it real."

Cat sitting on a bed

After a long day have you ever found yourself sitting on the edge of your bed with your head down and wondering what happened to your life? Imagine if your cat did the same thing.

Avant garde "Single Ladies"

Tue, 07 Jul 2009 10:01:03 -0500

The clown mask is the face she presents to the world to hide her pain. Until the pain becomes too much and she has to take the mask off.

Michael Jackson is ALIVE! Or a ghost? Or both? Who knows.

Tue, 07 Jul 2009 07:56:58 -0500

Look, we're all bummed that Michael Jackson is gone. I remember watching and re-watching an old VHS tape of a Showtime special on the making of "Thriller" when I was young. But some people are convinced that Michael Jackson is still among us, whether in corporeal or non-corporeal form. Here's two competing videos on the matter (warning, many people are using Michael Jackson survival videos as an opportunity to Rick Roll you). First, is the human-shaped shadow moving in the background just some random person's image caught by a light, or Michael Jackson moonwalking in the afterlife? Second, does Michael Jackson's body move while being flown to the morgue?

Rap tribute to Billy Mays

Mon, 06 Jul 2009 13:50:17 -0500

Billy Mays kind of revolutionized the infomercial personality. Without him, we would never had cared that Vince "Shamwow" Shlomi pummeled a prostitute. He also seemed like a decent guy with a good sense of humor. In that vein, here's a rap tribute to Billy Mays, set to Ice Cube's "Today Was a Good Day".

Evian rollerbabies: cute or creepy?

Mon, 06 Jul 2009 12:09:08 -0500

Could Evian be reviving the "dancing baby" phenomenon? God I hope not. This video is kinda neat, kinda disturbing with its CGI plastic "babies" on roller skates with their cold, dead, lifeless eyes and android-like skin.
