The Lukeywes Rebellion

Salon.com has a great article on Lukeywes1234, your average nerdy kid posting videos of himself on YouTube.

Well, he was average, until YouTube suspended his account and, as retalliation, the internet prank community 4chan elevated him to the status of a god:

And 4chan then took it up a notch, declaring Jan. 6 YouTube Porn Day. The idea? Simple. (To nerds, anyway.) Set up fake accounts and upload videos of porn mixed with more innocuous subject matter. (The words “Jonas Brothers” appear in the directive.) Set those videos to private. Then, today, go live. In your face, YouTube! You shut down Luke — we’re coming at you with bare breasts! Not, perhaps, the kind of tribute the young man himself would have wished in his name, but this thing is bigger than him now.

Yes, it’s really that juvenile. And yes, Luke’s resemblance to YouTube folk heroes like the Star Wars kid and the Numa Numa guy, as well as the response that seems straight out of the great Boxxy eruption of 2009, makes the whole affair feel a little contrived. Much of the response to Luke is just an old-fashioned, bandwagon-jumping excuse to game the system, and there’s an undeniable undercurrent of snark in the elevation of a guileless boy to YouTube “god.” But in the midst of the attempted pornrolling (for what it’s worth, I’ve been trawling YouTube all day for examples, and it’s a lot easier to find real porn just about anywhere else) and faux outrage, there’s a sweetness to the whole insanity as well. A boy puts up videos of himself, shot by his grandma, posturing as hero, and in the process actually becomes something of an unlikely hero.

BONUS: Here’s Lukeywes’ original ghost hunting video directed by his grandmother. If you’re looking for a Lukeywes tribute that is tripped-out and scary, check this one.

Jesus Cradling a Baby Velociraptor

I’m still tracking down the source of the above photo, but I had to post it for now because in many ways it needs no explanation.

I don’t think it’s related, but Cracked.com has this image of Jesus as a velociraptor:

I’m no expert, but I’m fairly certain it’s better theology to imagine Jesus preaching to the dinosaurs, but not being one.

Star Trek Mashups Extravaganza – Merry Christmas

Very cleverly done.

I think this may be a trend, because I also found an orginal Star Trek/A-Team mashup:

The same guy as the above, huckbone, also made a Love Boat/TNG intro:

As long as we’re on The Next Generation mashed up with other classic tv shows, here’s a mashup with Dallas:

If you liked that, you might also like the Voyager version or the Battlestar Galactica version. Still can’t get enough? How about the Star Wars version?

And what would a mashups chronicle be without the Brokeback Mountain parodies? The first one makes use of the new Star Trek movie…

Awkward Questions About Jesus

Merry Christmas!

As you celebrate this baby Jesus birthday, take a moment to think of how your Christmas tree feels. How easy it would be for the tree to just reach out and… well, enact “treevenge”?

This is a clip from a short that’s actually called “Treevenge.” It’s been doing the festival circuit and is now available in full online from Twitch Film. The filmmakers are also responsible for another holiday favorite, “Hobo with a Shotgun.”

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.
