Vacation begins… enjoy some crazy-delicious tunes.

Video Spank Bank Friday

School’s out and it’s time to enjoy summer. In particular, guys in tiny swimsuits (can we pass a law banning board shorts, please? Especially, if you’ve got a rockin’ bod.)

This bit of summer relief is Kerry Degman, a Southern boy who makes my pants get tight.

Enjoy.

Monday Memories

How many hours in the late 80's/early 90's did I waste playing this game? I used to think that it would be harder for the graphics to get any better.

Holy Freakin' Crap!

Check this out! If it actually works, it will change video gaming forever.



...IF it works (it's Microsoft, so I'm sure they'll find a way to f*ck it up.

Let’s Class this Place Up!

I don’t post enough political commentary on S&T and I think it’s time to change that. I know this isn’t timely, but Sarah Palin continues to push for the Republican nomination in 2012, and I think we should get a look at how she could really handle foreign relations.



Yep, folks… that’s about as classy as it gets around here. Huffington Post is that away, kids…

It Takes Only One…

Let’s get this party started!  We’ve got a long week ahead and on Monday, you need something to make you smile.

Yeah, this guy looks like a tool. Is he stoned? Just a freak? Who knows?  But watch what starts to happen around 1:15…

As with so many cool things, this was found at YesButNoButYes. 

“Worst Day of My Life!”

American Idol finally ended last night, so I no longer have to hear about that crap any longer. I’m thinking the cover of Entertainment Weekly and People… then we won’t hear about this guy until he appears in US Magazine spread on “has-beens pulling tricks under the overpass for drug money.” Another bright spot is I don’t have to hear or see Ryan Secrest for another nine months.

No reaction videos yet from this year, but I'm sure they looked something like this—but probably a lot more gay... well, a little more gay, with a lot more gay guys:

Oh, kids… you haven’t seen Mega Shark vs Giant Octopus, so there’s still time for you to have a worse day.

The Always Lovely Hazel

I love infomercials. They are amazingly bad, yet addictive to watch. The items they sell are often substandard and last about as long as the infomercial.

I have been sucked into just about everyone of them (Enzyte, being one major exception). They promise the world, but rarely deliver. The GT Xpress? Burns the outside while leaving the inside cool and raw! Mighty Putty? Works… but smells like gasoline. The Hanger Cascader? Nope. Still takes up too much space. Riddex Plus? When a field mouse runs to it, you know it’s time to call the exterminator and toss that piece of junk. But the ads are so convincing, I feel the need to buy them.

The Magic Bullet is by far the best infomercial. Mimi and her Australian husband hosted a party the night before and in the early morning light, the people that were too drunk to drive home are gathered around the kitchen to watch them make breakfast… and lunch… and snacks… and drinks. This is how Scientology works, isn’t it?

My two favorite characters are Verman and Hazel. Verman is a pudgy, bald guy who partied too much the night before—he can’t even show up in clothes, he’s still in a robe… oh, Verman! Hazel is exactly as you’d expect: New York-ish, 50-ish, horn-rimmed glasses, with cigarette dangling from her lips—with a huge ash that never falls off!

I had no interest in ever buying one—but I have watched this infomercial at least two dozen times. It’s freakin’ addictive! However, in a moment of weakness, I did finally buy one. How can I resist the power of Verman and Hazel?

Watch and see if you can resist…

Part I


Part II


However—before you buy, note one important thing—it’s a piece of sh*t.

Oh. My. Gawd.

Behold, the greatest film to ever come from the director of the worst films you never saw—such as Monster Island and America's Deadliest Home Video—comes (wait for it...) Mega Shark vs Giant Octopus!

You don't believe me, do you? I wouldn't believe me. But, we have video... video so deliciously bad, so excruciatingly horrific, I feel I must share it with you. [Warning: the scenes contain sad special effects and Lorenzo Llamas]

Sign, Sign a Song/Sign Out Loud/Sign Out Strong


Who knew ASL could be so hip ‘n hot, with a beat you can dance to?

“Teabagging” + “Dick Armey” = Comedy Gold!

Another reason to love MSNBC (which I used to think of as a bunch of douchebags, but now I think they’ve got a pretty damn good sense of humor).

What Storm?

Sean Chapin’s* terrific response to the National Organization for Marriage video trying to scare the Christianists:



This is beginning to blow up in NOM’s face—it’s now reported by the HRC that they auditioned actors, not real people, for their ad. They can never win on the truth, can they? Just keep perpetuating the lie and hope it catches does not honor God.

And on an even brighter note, from Joe. My. God.: it’s only a matter of time, why fight the inevitable? Gay marriage is coming:

*Contrary to what one friend noted, I did not post Sean's video because he's really cute... however, truth be told, it didn't hurt. I've been crushing on this guy for years...


Update: I sent this note to Sean this morning. Spread the word, people--this video can effect change.

Sean,

I was having drinks last night with a friend when the subject of your video came up. She and I have had several debates on gay marriage and she’s had a hard time reconciling her religion to gay marriage. Yesterday, I sent a note out to all my friends to watch it. She did…

…and she finally got it!

It blew me away. I’ve been discussing it with her for so long, we became broken records: repeating the same arguments over and over. However, your video got her to look at it from outside herself; it’s not about her, it’s about other people loving each other.

When she said “I wish I could take back my vote [for Yes on 8]”, it gave me hope that this conversation could be going all across the country. One step closer—one vote closer—to equality.

I thought you would want to know that your video is having a positive effect. Thank you again for posting what needed to be said.

Best,
-Chris

Another update: He got mentioned in Time Magazine (he's the first link on the spoofs in the second to the last paragraph)! AWESOME!

Best Movie Ever?

After watching this trailer, I'm thinking, "quite possibly."

Spank Bank Friday

Today, we’re going with a video… I’m sure none of the guys (the gay ones) will complain.



Note when the assistant tries to tap out, he doesn’t let go. Yeah, you show him who's the boss…

I Like Bananas, Too!

This guy is pretty good, for a "straight" guy.



He can protest all he wants, but I still think he’s a ho-MO-sexual…

All This to Meet Tyra Banks?

Simple, elegant message. Sure, it’s selling Coca Cola—but it’s deliciousCoca Cola—however, the message is more important: tough times only make us stronger—enjoy your life, as those are the times you remember most.

For those of you who are dead inside, don’t bother watching. For those of you with a heart… grab a Kleenex!

I had a feeling it went down like this…



...using the tray as a bat: genius!

Thank you, Jimmy Kimmel!

Polishing the Raised Scepter of Love

One of the best monologues, ever. Not only is it brilliantly--and hysterically--written, the look on the kid's face is priceless. I'm not sure it held up to its early promise, but Weeds has always been an enjoyable show to watch.
