If Cartoons Were Real

The Inevitable Christian Bale-Mel Gibson Mashup

Lots of netizens had the same idea:

I prefer musical remixes…

I’m sure there are many more on the way. The squirrel warrens of the internet must be hard at work auto-tuning the choisest phrasery of MC Mel. We have a team here at Tastes Funny who will stay abreast of Apocalyptophonecall, and respond instantly as the dance beat versions go viral.

But let us just say that to stand out in the flood of remixes, you’re going to have to be Passion-of-the-Christ-like in your sacrifice. Do it for Mel! Do it for America!

Gibberish English Proto-Rap

By popular demand, I am posting the subtitled version of Adriano Celentano’s 1972 hit gibberish tune, “Prisencolinensinainciusol”. The subtitles are a best guess…

I have no doubt that this is what American English sounds like to Italians.

The Ballad of GI Joe

I have been assured that this is better than the movie.

Girl Scared of Horse

A girl finally decides to confront her fear of horses. Um, doesn’t go so well.

Most Bizarre Movie Trailer: After Last Season

Huh? Huh again? Huh to the nth power?

You can read an interview with the filmmaker here and, yes, he’s serious. Also, this movie cost $5M to make.

More clips are available on the movie’s website.

Daily Show: We Don’t Torture

Economic Crisis Political Humor

The one thing the Daily Show doesn’t mention is that torture doesn’t produce reliable intelligence anyway, which has always been the biggest irony of this whole thing.

Is it an accident that, since this aired, Obama is thinking maybe some people will be prosecuted after all?

UPDATE: Legofesto has been trying to get the word out for years…

The Humor of Parallax


Great photo set of forced perspective fun.

These are some of my favorites.

The concept behind this technique is known as parallax.

It was used to great comedic effect on Kids in the Hall with the ‘I’m crushing your head’ sketch.

Master Killer Resume

I was applying for a job at NBC via an online program that uploaded my resume then scanned the contents and generated a list of past experience. Little did I realize it was looking past my resume and scanning my soul.

Dramatization? Really?

So if this medicine doesn’t cure GTBH (Giant Teddy Bear Head), how do I cure that?

A Portrait of the Artist as an Auto Mechanic

I saw this business card in an auto parts store in New Jersey. I guess the publishing industry really is going downhill.

The Best of Microsoft Songsmith

Microsoft made a program called Songsmith where you sing some vocals in and it uses an algorithm to create matching music:

But as a Microsoft spokesman said recently, Songsmith is being “used in ways we haven’t quite imagined.” People have been taking the vocals from hit songs and then adding Songsmith backing tracks to them. The results are funny, bizarre and sometimes disturbing.

Here are some of my faves…

The Police’s “Roxanne”

Beastie Boys’ “Intergalactic”

The Eagles’ “Hotel California”

The Beatles’ “Sgt. Pepper’s Lonely Hearts Club Band”

Funniest iPhone App Reviews

Apple has recently closed a loophole that allowed people to comment on iPhone applications even when they haven’t bought the program. As with Amazon’s Tuscan milk reviews, this has lead to a number of hilarious fake reviews and some bizarrely earnest ones. A selection of our favorites…

1. TouchScan: “It works and ended my marriage”

2. Koi Pond: “Smoke marijuana before use”
I am high and it sounds really awesome

3. Shekar Yadav haters: “The developer’s a tool.”


4. WritingPad: “Every time I tried writing my name Shaun, it changed it to Satan.”

5. Constitution for iPhone and iPod Touch: “I give it 3/5 stars. That’s a good compromise, right?

(History tip: The three fifths compromise in the constitution declared freed slaves and Native Americans would be counted as 3/5 of a person.)
