911 Calls

So it's been a while since we posted. We've been working on a new site design, and really just working on other things besides this here blog. Our one faithful (read: bored) reader is bugging the shit out of me to do some updates so here you go...

These people have no idea what 911 is meant to be for. I think these people should be billed out the ass for calling an emergency line for dumbass reasons. It is funny though.

New bachlor party prank...Blue Midget

This has to be right up there with the best bachelor party pranks ever.

...here's the deal... the group hired a midget (little person) for the trip (personally, I didn't know you could hire a midget but I guess you can get anything these days), painted him blue, and then handcuffed him to the bachelor. They were locked together for 4 days... non-stop. They ate together, slept together, showered together and hit the bathroom together. Considering it was a bachelor party they may have done some other things to together. I don't know.

Here's a spoof on the iPhone's new visual voicemail feature which let's you listen to messages in any order you want to.

What really happened to Kurt Cobain

Anyone who followed the investigation into Kurt Cobain's alleged suicide already knows most of this. For those that don't here is a good article on why many believe Kurt's death was not a suicide.

FTA: Kurt apparently had 3 times the lethal 225 mgs dose of heroin (1.52 mgs per liter) in his blood system and intravenous puncture marks in both arms. Medical experts will tell you that such an amount, when injected directly into the bloodstream will leave you incapacitated and cause you to lapse into a coma within seconds, if not kill you instantly before the needle can even be removed from your arm. It's common for deaths of heroin overdoses to be found with the needle still sticking out of the arm. That's how quickly one lethal dose can kill a person, let alone three.

More FTA: It's hard to believe that Cobain injected himself with an insane triple lethal dose of heroin, pulled the needle out of his arm, carefully put away that needle and the heroin paraphernalia neatly back into a cigar box a few feet away, rolled down and button his sleeves, then picked up a Remington 20-gauge shotgun, placed it in his mouth and discharged it.

That's only the tip of the iceberg. How about the part where they couldn't find any fingerprints on the gun he used, the shell box next to him or the pen he supposedly used to write his suicide note.

There are many reasons why those close to Kurt don't believe he took his own life.

[OSF] Effects of Drugs on Spider's Webs

Best. Thesis. Ever.

So you're sitting there playing pong on your Atari 2600 thinking about how much the controller sucks. You could move up to a more modern console, or you could think outside the box as Jennifer from New York University did.

For her demo, Chowdhury made a video of herself and a partner playing Pong. He stands behind her with his hands near her shoulders, and she reaches back toward his hips. When he touches her left breast, the paddle moves to the left. The sensor in the right bra cup moves the Pong paddle to the right.

Let me break this down...

Playstation 3 wireless controller < Boobs

Xbox 360 wireless controller < Boobs

Wii motion sensoring controller < Boobs

That's how I'd score it anyway.

Drunk Redneck Women Falling Down

I was going to save this and post it with a "drunk people" collection, but this is great by itself and I just couldn't wait. There's nothing funnier than a drunk person doing a faceplant, and this video has a LOT of those.

Here's a fact you may not know, Bob Dylan wrote every hit song in the past 35 years. Don't believe me? Here's the proof. I just keep thinking about Dylan sitting there in '66 pickin' rump shaker on his old 6 string.

Remembering Chris Farley

I was just browsing around youtube this morning and came across some old Chris Farley clips. It's hard to believe it will be 10 years since he died in December. I can honestly say that he's by far the best physical comedian I've ever seen. Here's a few clips to bring back some memories. Matt Foley Clips Some Dancing Clips Impressions Fat guy in a little coat Outtakes And one I hadn't seen before playing Christian Laettner in the best play that ever was.

Japanese Kid's Beer Commercial (Kodomo no nomimono)

No idea what they're saying here, but this is weird enough anyway. Apparently this is fake beer in Japan that's marketing specifically for kids. They've been out for a few years. Bottles, cans, and six packs...wine, champagne, and cocktails. Must be fun to be a kid in Japan! Anyway watch the video and read the link, there's some great pictures there. [CScout Japan]

Barney featuring Elmo - Money Maker (Pharrell featuring Ludacris)

NSFW: Language From the "ridiculous Barney music video remix" files comes Money Maker...featuring Elmo. A lot of the Barney remixes are pretty crappy, they just throw together clips. This, like the Tupac one, is really well thought out.

[OSF] New Black Sheep video - Whodat?

Even though this is a new track, I put it under Old School Friday because Black Sheep is one of the dopest old school crews still in the game (kinda...see below). Dres is one of my favorite rappers, and it's great to see him back with the old crew. Great track. Apparently Mr Lawnge has gone solo - but did (according to Dres) help out with the new project. Production guests include Bean 1, VItamin D, Show Biz, Kwame, and Lord Finesse. In the interview below (from 3/06), Dres says he's hoping to re-establish the group with Lawnge (now spelled Long). At least Dres is still kickin it with the Native Tounges crew, touring with De La Soul. [Interview with Dres] [Wikipedia]

[OSF] Peanut Butter and Bananas - Delicious Sandwich...Atheist's Nightmare Foods?

Anyone who knows me knows that I'm all for being open minded to religion, and actively exploring my personal spirituality. But man, some arguments (both for and against the concepts) are just ... oh, what's the word I want here ... well, nuts. Here's two old school (in Internet lifetimes) examples from the "for" category. Bananas: with Kirk Cameron Peanut Butter: with Chuck Missler (who?) Kirk Cameron "Debunked" (interesting):

[OSF] Kick-Ass Weng Weng Rap

Who's Weng Weng (pronounced Wang Wang), you ask? He's the baddest 2'9" B-movie star you never heard of...until now. According to Boing Boing referencing trashvideo he began his movie career doing underground adult films...nice. Also, he was in a video ["MoonBoy From Another Planet" in which he played a lovable three foot alien who befriends a poor Filipino boy] whos filmmaker sued Steven Spielberg for ripping off "E.T.". Also, he's a Guiness World Record holder (shortest adult actor in a leading role). The best part is, the rap is actually really good. Great lyrics. Classic: Put your hands low down where he can see 'em Then put 'em up high He's a tiny human being Guaranteein security to Philipino citizens, It's all the same thing to Weng Weng Guilty, innocent He got his own style, he's got a cute little smile In fact one time he even got picked up by a pedophile But kill that He's skilled at the art of attack He got a razorblade hat, a little gat, and a rocketpack He doesn't like booze so never pour him a shot of scotch Just give him a coke and you won't get a pop in the crotch His movies you love to watch, he knows that they all sweet WENG WENG IS DOIN HIS THANG THANG UNDER THREE FEET You want fight scenes? SURE! [Wikipedia]

More 300 Trailer Re-Cuts

So, a week or two or three ago (shut up, measuring time is stupid) I posted the 300 Anchorman clip. Little did I know just how many 300 trailer re-cuts there were. I still think the Anchorman one is the best - but I'll admit I haven't watched 1/5 of the ones out there. Here's two I did watch, because these movies are both awesome: Army of Darkness The Sandlot If you've got some time on your hands, check out the rest at [Arrogantics]

Saltwater into fire...and a cure for cancer?

So this guy from Erie came up with this idea at like 3 in the morning for curing cancer using radio waves. Genius by itself...but, when you add the fact that a by-product of this invention is that he can also set salt water on fire (thus making it combustible enough to be a fuel source)...well, I'll let the video blow your mind for me. It's too early to be witty.

That and a slick ass touch interface to interact with all your information.

Chill your beer FAST with science

This was actually on an episode of MythBusters, me and the Grand Chawhee (50 points if you know what that's from) tried it and like most science, it worked really really well. I'd explain how it works but then you wouldn't watch the video, and then what's the point of me posting it in the first place? So watch, you zoomer, and learn. GOOOO SCIENCE!

Easy Ways to Unlock your Car

So, it's been 6 days since the last post, and I refuse to let it get to a week, because that's the start of a downward spiral I don't want to get on.

Funny Cat Video

Alright, I'd like to say I'm posting this because there are girls that read this crazy blog, but the truth is, I find the strangest shit funny. And as someone who truly enjoys watching Kimbo bare-knuckle street fight (if you don't know what I'm talking about, wait for next OSF) you'd probably never expect that I'd really like a video about cats. Just cats. Well, I do, so shut up. What do you know anyway? This shit is hilarious. It takes a lot to make me laugh at the computer when I'm alone, especially more than once. Good job, random cat video.

[OSF] Tecmo Bowl making a comeback

The makers of the classic NES football game Tecmo Bowl and the superior Tecmo Super Bowl are in the process of making an updated version of the game for today's consoles. As long as you can still do this, I'm all in... Here's MJD's take on it from The Debriefing... Picture a night of Tecmo Bowl with your friends right now. You'd put the game in, and for about 30 seconds, you'd be a giddy young buck. Within a couple of minutes, though, you'll say to yourself, "Really, this is it? I run in zig-zags and have just two different buttons to press?" Then one guy will leave because he has to go clean out his gutters or his wife will leave him, and another guy will pass out behind the couch because this is the one night of the month he's allowed to drink and he overdid it. From there, another friend will ask if he can turn the game off and watch Grey's Anatomy, and the one guy who does want to play, the unemployed stoner who has played Tecmo Bowl for three hours every day since 1988, will call you a sissy because you're saying this whole thing was a bad idea. Let's hope the new game has more then 4 plays to pick from and maybe a hair better graphics. As of this post there's no real information on specifics of the game.

[OSF] I wanna know where da GOL' at! (Leprechaun, leprechaun)

So, these people in Mobile, Alabama think they've seen a leprechaun in their neighborhood. Some huge black guy has an Irish great-great grandfather that gave him a special leprechaun flute. Or, it "Could be a crackhead, got hol' ta tha wrong stuff. And it told him to climb up in a tree and act like a leprechaun." My favorite part, "who all seen the leprechaun say yeaaaaay" - the look he gives the camera after that is priceless. Yes, there's a rap remix. CLASSIC. Kick it, Mr. T! The same song above, but with a hilarious video starring little people dressed as leprechauns Another rap remix. I like the other one better. BUBB RUBB makes a comeback, remixed into the leprechaun video This one is so big, it's got a Wikipedia entry. And a nice little aside... he WPMI-TV news story featured an amateur sketch of the creature. Upon realizing the sudden fame of their story, the staff of WPMI-TV conducted an auction for the sketch on eBay, which garnered $1100 [Wikipedia]

[OSF] The price is wrong, Bitch!

This isn't totally old school for old school friday, but the clip at the beginning is. This is definitely up there with movie moments I could have never predicted. Sweet old Bob Barker kicking the shit out of Adam Sandler. I haven't watched The Price is Right for a while now, with having to work for the man and all. Nevertheless it's still odd to think about daytime TV without Bob Barker.

How can parts of Canada be "missing" gravity?

For more than 40 years, scientists have tried to figure out what's causing large parts of Canada, particularly the Hudson Bay region, to be "missing" gravity. In other words, gravity in the Hudson Bay area and surrounding regions is lower than it is in other parts of the world, a phenomenon first identified in the 1960s when the Earth's global gravity fields were being charted.

Bruce Bowen's greatest hits

I think by now it's clear to anyone outside of San Antonio that Bruce Bowen is a dirty player. A great defender he might be and off the court he's apparently a very likable and intelligent guy. On the court though, he does stuff like this. That's just the most recent occurrence. There's plenty more where that came from but I'd highly recommend this one.

Police officer overdoses on marijuana

So a cop in Michigan confiscated some pot off a random person on the street, took it home and made brownies with it. He and his wife then ate the brownies and thought they were dying. To cover it up, the guy blamed the whole deal on his wife. Classy. Here's the 911 call they placed when they were on deaths doorstep. Just in case you were wondering, there has never been a documented case of marijuana killing anyone. Ever. The cop has since resigned.

Scientists find magnets that repel sharks

A company named Shark Defense have found that a rare earth magnet may be the key to avoid getting eaten by Jaws. Since 2001, SharkDefense has been working on a chemical shark repellent. According to Herrmann, he and Stroud were playing around with powerful rare-earth magnets in 2005, when he dropped one next to their shark research tank in Oak Ridge, New Jersey. The lemon and nurse sharks inside instantly darted to the opposite wall. In testing at the Bimini Biological Research Station shark lab in the Bahamas, Stroud and Herrmann have found that sharks dramatically avoid magnets made from neodymium, iron and boron. The magnets even rouse sharks from tonic immobility, a coma-like state induced by turning them upside down. As you can see in this video, the sharks won't cross the line of magnets on the tank floor.

Xylitol can be harmful to dogs

So, anyone who's ever sent me an email forward that made no sense at all knows that I'm very big on debunking that kind of crap. Could Bill Gates POSSIBLY track and pay you for sending emails? WOULD he? Don't be ridiculous. Yet I still get that one sent to me, randomly, 8-10 years later [sigh]. If you're one of the guilty forwarders, I'm going to let you in on a dirty little secret: Snopes. Before you hit "Forward", go to Snopes.com, please, for the love of god. Save us all the time and bandwidth. However, some of them actually are true. This is one of them...a big one. As a pet lover, I'm amazed I haven't actually researched this before, but I'm glad I did now. Spread the word to anyone you know who has dogs...be VERY careful, especially with Orbitz and other gums (nothing against them, I love Orbitz, it just seems to be the most likely place a dog is going to get Xylitol from in most households). Xylitol is a sugar alcohol used in candy and chewing gum. It is also found in some pharmaceuticals and oral health products such as chewable vitamins and throat lozenges. It can also be used in home baking. While Xylitol is safe for humans, it can be harmful to dogs. The compound doesn't affect glucose levels in people, but when ingested by dogs it can cause a dangerous surge of insulin. (In as little as 15 minutes, the blood sugar of a dog that has eaten gum containing Xylitol may register a marked drop in blood sugar.) At higher doses, Xylitol is believed toxic to the canine liver. Just three grams of Xylitol can kill a 65-pound dog. [Snopes] [Wikipedia]

Rev. Jerry Fallwell Dead

I'll leave commentary to other bloggers. I've learned to try to keep my mouth generally shut when it comes to religion, especially the "Moral Majority" (what a stupid name). Nobody wants to hear what I have to say, and those who do already agree with me about stuff. LYNCHBURG, Va. - The Rev. Jerry Falwell — founder of the Moral Majority and the face of the religious right in the 1980s — died Tuesday after being found unconscious in his office, a Liberty University executive said. Godwin said he was not sure what caused the collapse, but noted that Falwell had “a history of heart challenges.” [MSNBC]

[OSF] Bubb Rubb says: The Whistles go WOOOOO

Alright, so last week Old School Friday [OSF] kind of...fell apart. Mostly because my computer decided to do the same. But, here at work, Scally and I are running 8-Track Tuesdays (yes, we have an 8 track player, and yes, about 100 8-tracks...the Stones are on right now). So, I'll make up for it now, while I'm in an old school mood. This week's classic: Bubb Rubb and Lil' Sis and their whistle tips. This one was passed around for a while, then fell off for a few years, and came back with a vengeance this year. So, here it is, along with multiple remix versions. Freaking classics. My favorite part of the video, besides the whole thing, is at the end when he completely blows the stop sign and almost crashes (and you can't even barely hear his whistler tips anyway). ORIGINAL: REMIX: TECHNO REMIX: LUDACRIS REMIX: Who could forget Kailey? AND! A Bubb Rubb documentary/interview thing Chillin' at the Mansion: This is a short trailer for Bubb Rubb's DVD. I was gonna skip this one, but I love Prefuse 73, so I'll include it...entertaining, but not as funny as the other ones.

Would you pay $50 to watch a new movie at home?

How much would you pay to see a new theatrical release in the comfort of your own home? Comcast is trying to make the "simultaneous release" dream happen, but with prices being proposed in the $30-50 range per screening, the dream looks more like a Hollywood acid trip. Comcast COO Stephen Burke told attendees at last week's national cable confab that studios are interested, but that interest must be limited, for he didn't name names and the studios aren't talking. It is the first time we've heard some quasi-solid pricing details from a major player, however. My first thought was that $50 is a ridiculous amount to pay for one movie. But on second thought if you think about the whole movie going experience, paying $10 per ticket to get in, dealing with all the kids and waiting in line for food (and no beer). I'd much rather have a few friends over and charging everyone about the same amount you'd pay to get into the movie. [Read]

Heroes Spinoff

Heroes is launching a new series to tide watchers over till the new season starts. The new show has been ordered for six episodes, and will introduce a completely new set of characters. The coolest part: In an effort to make the show interactive (and, I'm guessing, to squash what is going to be some griping by "Heroes" fans who are unhappy that the original show won't return in September), NBC will ask fans to vote on which is the new characters is their favorite, and that character will then become a regular cast member on the original series. Also in the article is information about a few of NBC's other shows including Scrubs, The Office and My Name Is Earl. [Read]

A new type of theatre experience

Mark Cuban and his Landmark Theatres are putting a fresh spin on going to the movies, making the experience a little more adult friendly. “In our new Denver theater, we completely removed the concession stands,” says Cuban. “The original design had the traditional concession stand taking up prime real estate and dominating the look and feel of the theater. We decided that we would rather use that space for amenities, retail sales (movies, books, indie cinema related items), and ‘interstitial’ type entertainment that complements our ‘datenight for grownups’ concept in a lounge-like environment. Basically it became a place where you could go on a date, have a drink, food and be entertained before and after seeing a movie." I especially like the idea of being able to get a drink before of after the movie. That and being able to go see a movie and not feel like you're back in 8th grade. [Read]

Joseph Smith Sphinx (Mormon)

So, a friend of mine went to SLC this weekend, and came back with stories of the Joseph Smith Sphinx. Yes, it's real... The finished statues are likewise unconventional, even eccentric: a sacrificial altar, a shrine to Child's beloved wife Bertha, even a sphinx with the face of Mormon prophet Joseph Smith, Jr. Child, who shared the garden with thousands of visitors over his lifetime, knew that not everyone would appreciate his particular artistic vision. His primary concern, however, was that the garden would succed in making people think: "You don't have to agree with me," he said. "You may think I am a nut, but I hope I have aroused your thinking and curiosity." [Wiki] [PostMormon.org]

Barney vs Tupac - Hit 'Em Up

Another oldie but goodie - the dancing kids make this video.

While some clever people note that you could celebrate by wearing a dress, skirt, kilt or other pants alternative, traditionalists will argue that such clothing is not in keeping with the spirit of the day.

Get Rid of Pre-Installed CrapWare on your PC

So, you're the proud owner of a new PC. You anxiously open the box, dumping out the contents, casting the instructions aside. You feverishly push your old PC off the desk and get the new one set up. On the floor lies a pile of plastic wrap and twist ties. Your brand spanking new PC boots up only to greet you with a plethora of pop up advertisements pestering you to pay for anti-virus software or sign up for a music service. Your desktop is littered with website links for 'special offers.' The system tray is already full of programs that continuously use your internet connection to make sure that you're 'up to date.' All of this stuff is placed on your new PC because the big companies like Dell, HP and others sell advertising space on your PC to put more money in their pockets at the expense of your time and frustration. The PC Decrapifier is a program free for personal use to help the average computer user combat this problem. [Read]

Top 10 8-bit games

A new kind of 'power plant'?

From a distance, as we rounded a bend and first caught sight of it, I couldn't believe the strange structure ahead of me was actually real. The tower looked like it was being hosed with giant sprays of water or was somehow being squirted with jets of pale gas. I had trouble working it out.

In fact, as we found out when we got closer, the rays of sunlight reflected by a field of 600 huge mirrors are so intense they illuminate the water vapour and dust hanging in the air. It is Europe's first commercially operating power station using the Sun's energy this way and at the moment its operator, Solucar, proudly claims that it generates 11 Megawatts (MW) of electricity without emitting a single puff of greenhouse gas. This current figure is enough to power up to 6,000 homes.

File this one under pointless:

Numerologists: Your moment is about to arrive. Mathematicians and lottery players: You may want to pay attention, too.

11 year old girl kills 2 home invaders

Two illegal aliens broke into a house in Montana where an 11 year old girl was all alone. Usually this is the start of a tragic story, but not if that little girl is a clay shooting champion who just happens to know where her dad keeps his shotgun. She ended up killing both men, one of which was carrying a 45 caliber handgun from a previous robbery in which they had killed the victim. [Read] EDIT It appears this is probably not true after all.

Michael Vick's meeting with Roger Goodell

This is a hilarious sit down between Atlanta Falcons QB Michael Vick and NFL commissioner Roger Goodell. [Read] In reality, this is what Vick had to say after the meeting with the big man: "After what happened Friday, and then what happened on Monday, I just wanted to crawl in a hole. I can't take it no more. I walk around with a smile on my face and act like I'm happy, but on the inside it's hurting. And it's killing me. I ain't got no more energy left for it." "The more I continue to do things and my name is in the media, I'm not going to get anywhere. I'm taking it upon myself and giving everybody my word that things are going to get changed around. Things are going to get turned around. I have a game plan for it. The company I keep, a lot of things gotta change, and I mean that from the heart". All I have to say on the matter is that actions speak louder then words. That, and as long as he's not injuring other people or animals, he should continue to do dumbass shit for us all to laugh at.

Thou Shalt Always Kill

This is a track by Dan Le Sac and Scroobius Pip. I know you've never heard of them, but the lyrics are dope and it's a great video as well. Here's an interview with them about the song...

Absinthe soon to be available stateside (legally)

Finally a way to legally purchase absinthe in the US. From the article... I sampled the 124-proof liqueur last week, while watching the National Basketball Association playoffs. When diluted with water and a pinch of sugar, the absinthe’s taste is strong and pleasant. And the buzz has an odd way of focusing the mind — I’ve rarely been so entranced by the swish of a basketball net. I've only tried absinthe once, and it was a homemade concoction which tasted like burnt ass hair mixed with dog shit. I didn't really feel any effects from it although I only managed to get a shot or 2 down. Let's hope this stuff actually works since it's almost $60 for a 750ml bottle.

Watch your noggin'
