I wouldn’t lie to you.

This is totally dope. I, for one, welcome our new Korean rock star overlords.

Poked around looking for a good Jeremy Lin video. I’m sure some are in production right now, but until then, enjoy this little sketchlet from the College Humor folks and a similarly-themed David Letterman Top 10…

Hope you liked it. I’m off to the Linternational House of Lin Cakes.

LFMAO, in more ways than one…

Anyone out there know why or how this happened? More dramatic readings of song lyrics from the Cagemeister por favor!

You’d punch this guy too if he said you didn’t walk on the moon and you actually did. Walk. On. The. Friggin’. Moon.

And so, let this be a lesson to anyone who would mess with a retired astronaut. One of these days, Buzz Aldrin is gonna punch you in the face!

Our space program chose the hotshots with the right stuff and this video is stone cold proof. Come to think of it, I’d love to see a t.v. show where retired astronauts solve crimes and kick ass. Forget Chuck Norris. The quickest way to a man’s heart is through Buzz’s fist! And I’ll swear to that on a Bible.

The headline says it all.

This is amazing, funny and disturbing all at once, which I count as quite a coup. These kids are probably too young to have seen Jurassic Park. So this is some genuine velociraptor terror.

People who follow the work of British comedians Ricky Gervais and Stephen Merchant may already be aware of their friend, Karl Pilkington. Pilkington first rose to stardom on the Ricky Gervais podcast, where each show rapidly becomes an exploration of his odd and wonderful mind. So truthful, hilarious and insightful are his observations of day-to-day life, a scheme was hatched to star him in a travel show.

Now two seasons have been completed of An Idiot Abroad, and I highly recommend you seek them out. It is a travel show about someone who hates to travel; cultural anthropology as performed by a man who would rather sit at home and whinge about his boiler being on the fritz. On the DVD for the second season, I chanced across the strangely-titled bonus feature Pilko’s Pump Pants.

Beyond being something that must be seen to be believed, this is something I still don’t believe, even though I’ve seen it. Everything I’ve been able to Google about this makes me think this is 100% genuine. Whether it is or not, it is pure genius.

Momofuku! Magnolia?

Some lyrics…

A long, long time ago
On the world’s largest interconnected network of computers
Those LOLcats used to make me… laugh

And I knew I could make a joke
And not be sued by nasty folk
On the RIAA’s behalf

Then along came SOPA / PIPA
The internet’s very own grim reapa
User could not edit
Ars Technica and Reddit

Tumblr, Gawker, Hacker News and Something Awful sang the blues
And every login was refused
The day the LOLcats died

Why, why are laws a thing you can buy
They got paid off, should be laid off, re-election denied
Our web mean more than lawyers, lobbies and lies
So speak up before the internet dies

Speak up before the internet dies

The clever musicians in the band Walk Off the Earth figured out how to cover Goyte’s “Somebody That I Used To Know” using only one guitar. Watch and be impressed.

But this isn’t their only fun video. To get onto Tastes Funny, you need style, class, gumption, wherewithal and… puppets.

And here they are covering another internet star’s original composition – The Gregory Brothers’ “Backing Up”…

And now, to end on a completely non-musical note… Or maybe it is musical, in the sense that musician often end up bored in hotel rooms with nothing to do. I wonder how many in that situation have invented a new sport? And of those, I wonder how many chose the sport ceiling kicking.

Tim Tebow to Jesus Christ…

Harrison Ford had never actually seen the Indiana Jones movies, until recently. A cameraman was there to capture his live reactions…

That video might be fake. Or maybe this one is…

If you are going to have a man with in a jetpack introduce your local news show, perhaps it is best not to do it live…

Glad to see John was okay and eventually able to ride it up into the skies. Keep practicing, buddy. Near water.

Another found footage masterpiece. There’s no way that Kristen Wiig didn’t study this woman in detail — she seems to be the ur-source for most of Wiig’s characters.

If you don’t believe me, check out the SNL Digital Short that mocks 80′s exercise videos…

After a crash – no one is hurt – some snowmobile riders find themselves alternatively chased by and chasing their snowmobile. Pretty amazing footage.

The music totally makes it. Can anyone identify it? Is it from a “Legend of Zelda” game?

If you’re like me and grew up watching Full House, then you probably have a soft spot in your heart for Michigan-born comedian Dave Coulier. Coulier played Joey, one of three ‘dads’ to the Tanner girls on the show. Bob Saget played their genetic father, and John Stamos played the ‘cool dude’ uncle, Uncle Jesse.

It all seemed very innocent on the surface, and until I heard this song parody of “Jesse’s Girl” by Kris Fried and the Knights of the Standing O, I was missing the erotic subtext. As you’ll see from this video, there’s a reason evolution hasn’t bred out funny guys in favor of cool guys. It all hinges on… Uncle Jesse’s Girl.

You’ll have to wait a bit for it. At first it appears to be any other Thai talent show audition… But once she (he?) emerges from those tiny lungs, you’ll appreciate the contrast.

Be sure to watch all the way to the end…

As we settle down to enjoy the pagan holiday that was co-opted by Christianity, a reminder of how ignoble ideas can be embedded within noble ones…
