A Play On Words

Youtube is the basis of a lot of stupid shit. A large majority of the original material uploaded to youtube is made by annoying little teenagers who think the world wants to hear them bitch about how tough life is and say fuck 10 times. Another big majority are people who are really trying to create good entertainment on a budget. Then there’s that small amount of original material that is actually well produced and enjoyable to watch.

This brings me to a couple of videos produced by Radiolab, a nationally syndicated radio program produced in New York City, and broadcast on NPR (Nation Public Radio) stations in the United States. The videos are complex and poignant yet simple and inspiring. The first video was made last year and was simply title “Moments”. The video is a simple look at life and the moments that make it special.

The other and most recent video is entitled, “Words”. It’s a simple and thought provoking play on words. It’s very well cut together and makes you think as you watch it. You will probably have to watch it twice to catch what the filmmaker is doing here. These videos are exceptional and should really inspire the amateur film maker in us all.

By the way, did you catch the eight words that were being described in the video?

Fat Guy Dance Moves

I have a sneaking suspicion that this guy is faking these videos … but wouldn’t it be great if it was real?

With the hideously-tight shorts, the bulging belly, the lisp, and the atrocious athleticism, this video is begging to become viral. If it’s real, then I truly sympathize with poor little Cheryl the dog, who probably considers drowning herself in her water bowl after watching this moron flop around on the carpet. I’m thorry, I meant the “thick, blue carpet.”

Wow.

The Justin Bieber Show

I kinda wish this could actually become a series and warp the minds of Justin Bieber’s weepy, screaming fanbase.

Favorite part: the old man in the tub scrubbing his skin off. GENIUS!

Cluck, Cluck, Cluck: The Chicken Song

People love to post videos of their various talents youtube. It’s a great oppertunity for people to get discovered. Unfortunately, the people in the video almost always suck. Here is yet another example of some idiot make a fool of himself on Youtube.

Basil Marceaux Hits The Big Time

The other day Eric posted a cheap little ad campaign video of Tennessee gubernatorial candidate Basil Marceaux stumbling through his campaign promises. It looked like it was filmed in someone’s basement, and featured a mumbling Marceaux appearing as if he just suffered some sort of head trauma.

The guy has caught on thanks to YouTube, where people regularly laugh at him. So, of course, Jimmy Kimmel asked Marceaux to be on his talk show and become the butt of Kimmel’s jokes.

Marceaux is too stupid to understand that Kimmel is making fun of him and that the audience is laughing at him rather than with him. Marceaux also fails to elaborate on exactly how people will be “immune from all crimes” if they vote for him. Isn’t it scary to think that some moron can make people laugh on YouTube and suddenly, possibly, become an elected official??
