More bands should do this. Maybe we could keep the barrier between celebrity and anonymous person lowered if we could walk down the street, stand next to Kate Winslet, and listen to Beck bang out a few tunes on his acoustic. Ra Ra Riot – Dying is fine – A Take Away Show posted by [...]

I can’t tell if his new show will last more than a season, but it was good enough to bring me back for another week. It wasn’t Chappelle’s Show brilliant, but it was pretty good. I get the sense that Martin is a real person, by which I mean that he seems like he’s being [...]

Compression artifacts look like shit. Unless a clever director is using them as an effect. Whoa. Dude.

Okay, I was going to post Funny or Die’s Best Virals of 2008, but Focal Bliss’s test footage of Las Vegas snow is beautiful and at least in my top 5 for the year.

So much. On its surface, it’s a Johnny Jonny Quest parody, but the show is everything I love and find ridiculous about superheroes and adventure series all rolled into one beautiful package. My favorite character on it is Doctor Orpheus, a parody of Marvel’s evil-thwarting thaumaturge, Doctor Strange. No one will find this as hilarious [...]

Some people can’t escape destiny. Gordon “Hell’s Kitchen” Ramsey knew what bad cooking was before he hit puberty: Get ready, ’cause I may post a string of these. I’m a sucker for videos lately. UPDATE: also, I should explain that I find little kids swearing to be hilarious. I know. I am twelve.

I’ve liked those French dance scamps since I first heard the sexy, growling beat of ‘Genesis’ on a TV ad. It took a while to find who did that smokin’ groove, because I rarely connect the music to the product, ubiquitous silliness like the freecreditreport.com ads aside (that’s French-Canadian Eric Violette, just for the record).

It was just like this, I swear: I want that final scream as a ringtone.
