i know what you’re thinking: it’s a cyriak video with teddy bears, pigeons, and fuel-efficient cars, how could it not get completely bat-shit loony brilliant halfway through? and you’d be totally totally right.

seattleites christopher bange, cory calhoun, and ian fraser remade the ‘perfect strangers’ opening shot-by-shot, but this time setting it in seattle instead of chicago. i love this idea! hopefully it’ll inspire other remakes in alternate cities. who’s got duluth, guys??!
with all the time i spend watching cats on the internet, you’d think i would just get one already. but why buy the cat when you can get the lulz for free?
i overheard my future self saying this to my future cat: “i told you you can’t go outside and kill lizards until you’ve practiced your yodeling for at least another hour.”
funny short from the ramsey bros:
has anyone here ever hitchhiked? if i offered you a ride, would you accept it? would you pick me up if i were hitchhiking? what if i just needed a ride? no seriously, i just need a ride somewhere. can someone come pick me up?

it really doesn’t get more heartwarming than this:
a 4-year-old boy runs away from home, gets drunk, and then breaks into a neighbors house to steal their christmas gifts, one of which was a girl’s dress which he was wearing when the police found him wandering the streets, bud light in hand. i don’t know about you guys but this kid sounds like a real firecracker to me.
three minutes later the hose was sedated when its timer ran out. it refused to be taken in until an additional four quarters were deposited.
methinks someone spent their weekend getting rabies shots.
never let those bushy tails fool you: new york squirrels are fierce, ruthless vampires that will eat your face off if they smell food in your mouth.
people are going all crazy over this video but honestly, laughing without smiling is not that special. what’s more amazing is that he has managed to imitate exactly what i sound like during sex, and you can bet your butthole i ain’t smiling then either.

if you thought american television was awful and expoitative, you probably haven’t seen japan’s Panic Face King. in this episode, some terrible person thought it would be funny to put a guy in a room under the pretense of interviewing people for a documentary. then all of the interviewees suddenly get picked off by an unseen sniper. fearing for his life, the interviewer does what anyone who thinks he going to die does: he crawls around on the floor trying to find a slim chance of survival.
comedy gold, right???
all the while in the background you hear the laughter, the laughter, god the demonic laughter.
japan, seriously, this is more fucked up than your street fashion.
brandon hardesty, why on earth did you ever put baby shampoo on your mouth in the first place? and why do i think it’s so AMAZING?
i love how he makes no attempt to not look like a complete dufus at every second. and the sound effects are pretty charming too.

the anne frank museum in amsterdam is now in possession of the only known existing footage of anne frank as she leans out of a window to watch a wedding.
the 20-second footage was filmed by a neighbor on july 22, 1941, just a year before the frank family went into hiding. it’s sobering to think that anne only had a year left to do something so simple as lean out of a window.
fortunately i’ve never been unfortunate enough to have to endure a colleague’s smooth jazz, but only because i had the foresight to choose a career in the music industry, where smooth jazz is easily grounds for termination.
mike stern however was not so lucky and wrote this clever animated short, distraxion, about the tyranny of smooth jazz in the workplace, the not-so-silent killer of morale and self-worth.
this short film by will hoffman is so beautiful in its simplicity. without being mawkish, hoffman does a great job of documenting the consequence of the inconsequential moment, that fertile interim that marks the transition between one state and another. those moments can be asymptotic in their insignificance, but they are never nothing.

so in observance of this, i will post the next cutest thing which is al franken drawing an amazingly accurate map of the united states…BY HAND! as far as i’m concerned, that is the fastest way to get yourself elected to the presidency in 2012.

jarbas angelli saw a newspaper photo of birds on 5 tiers of wires and set it to music using the birds as notes. the result is surprisingly beautiful and melodic proving that the birds are composers and didn’t knowsers!
