Katie Couric Pretends Lil Wayne Is Not A Crazy...
I took the title of those post directly from Videogum because it can’t be said any better than that. Another choice quote about the video: “There’s nothing creepier than a crazy person who speaks in complete sentences.”

This Is Funny When I'm Drunk
I have no idea if this is regularly funny, but I’m drunk and I found it funny. Thanks to Jamie, I think.

Hey Baby, Watch Me Pull A Rabbit Out of My Pants
This falls into the same category as the creepy seduction via hypnosis video, but the women are decidedly more conscious. They are, however, unable to stop you from stripping them naked without permission. Were the 80’s always this creepy? Thanks Matt W.

Life's a LARP, Then You Die
Sometimes you get the short end of the mana stick. Thanks Lim.

I Must Watch This Movie
It’s called Hard Ticket To Hawaii and from this short clip it is the kind of movie you’d make if you had access to meth when you were thirteen. Meth and buff dudes and rocket launchers and blowup dolls. Thanks Matt W.!

Parkour Champion
If you’ve been following the comments on this site, then you’ve probably already seen this, but it’s worthy of its own post. Thanks Brian G.

A Prank For The Day Before The Prenup Expires
This is a man with a lot of balls and a lot of dedication to the lulz. My favorite part is him using the “I love you”s to really work that wax in there.

The Wookie In The Cupboard
The title of this post is supposed to be a play on The Indian in the Cupboard. You know you loved that book, so don’t pretend you didn’t. Moving on, if this doesn’t at least get a smile out of you, you have no soul. Thanks Eric!

How To Get Your Name In The Sexual Predators...
I can’t believe someone ever made an instructional video about this, but apparently they did. This has to be one of the creepiest things ever. It’s basically a how-to guide on using hypnosis as a daterape tool. The peanut gallery comments help to lighten the skin-crawling feeling you are bound to get.

Sure, They'll Probably Ride Safer, But At What...
If this blog ever teaches you even one life lesson, let it be this: Don’t leave your children alone with a man in a pink shirt that reads, “Ride Safe and Love It!” This video is a bit long, but at least watch the first 3 minutes. After that, you’re on your own. P.S. You probably noticed a few small changes to the site. I’ve changed the color of the links for...

Ninja Cat Fail
I’m sure we all remember the Ninja Cat. It was one of the defining videos of the internet for 2008. As you know, whenever the internet makes something funny, there is always somebody ready to duplicate it for no good reason. They usually fail.

This Can't Go Well
This stunt goes wrong, but maybe not the way you’d expect. I love that while summing up the situation, the camera man doesn’t sound the least bit concerned… just disappointed.

Playing For The Other Team
As you sit around on a Saturday afternoon watching Air Bud: Golden Receiver on TBS, do you ever wonder what the moral must be like on the team that is being beaten by the dog? Now you don’t have to. P.S. If/when I create a sport, I am going to put an ass-load of stipulations about athletically proficient animals and physics defying compounds/devices.

More Harsh Stand-Up Comedy
What happens if you’re white and you want to do offensive comedy, but can’t really make too many racial jokes? Well, there are a few other options.

From Now On Velcro Shoes Mandatory!
This is a clip from a reality show I’ve never heard of called The Principle’s Office. These guys are obviously trying to put the principle in an awkward position, which they do by putting themselves in awkward positions. It’s funnier than it sounds. And always remember, it’s not gay if you don’t make eye contact. Thanks Eric! I don’t ever want to know...

The Original Star Wars Trilogy, Retold
This is a pretty hilarious video of a girl that’s never actually seen the original Star Wars Trilogy trying to piece it together from what she has seen. It’s a lot like Drunk History, but this girl is less drunk and more ignorant. The accompanying animation is really what elevates this to lulz status.

A Song About Boners
The Whitest Kids U Know are back for Season 3 of their show at the end of January. They also have a movie coming out in March. This is going to be a big year for sketch groups with movies, apparently. Anyhow, here is a helpful new song about boner awareness.

Frisbees Are Serious Business
This clips starts off a little slow (though still pretty awesome), but be sure to stay until the end. Thanks to everyone who submitted this (Ben C. for his “friend” Nate and also separately from Matt W.)!

Yo Dawg, I Herd You Like Dreams
Okay, this isn’t my one post for the day. This is a bonus from a conversation I just had over AIM. Eric: I forgot to tell you, I had a dream that I found a funny video and so I showed it to you and we sat and watched the whole thing and while we were watching it, it wasn’t as funny as I had thought and it got to the end I was like, “that wasn’t very funny” and I...

Worst Dating Video Ever.
Well, this definitely satisfies the WTF stipulation of this blog. There is no nudity or cussing, but if you work in an environment where you want people to have the impression that you are sane, then this would be considered NSFW. Thanks David E. for the mail-in suggestion! I really hope this isn’t you or someone you are related to, David.

By Far The Most Offensively Hilarious Thing You...
A Japanese man in blackface doing a Louis Armstrong impersonation, and a crowd responding as if they believe this man is delivering a performance on par with the actual Louis Armstrong. The thick Japanese accent is really the icing on the cake. Have I mentioned before how much I love Japanese entertainment?

Go To Hell Chip. We Need A Catchy Towel Tune.
This is Microsoft’s new infomercial for a music creation tool, complete with a “happy” slider to cheer up all you emo pratts out there. My advice for your next ad, MS: if you are so keen on hitting that huge jingle-writer demographic, try to get John Stamos and Dave Coulier to be in the next ad. I seem to remember those guys needing help getting their pancake jingle off the...

Look At How Funky He Is!
Apparently this was the coolest thing you could possibly be doing in 1989. I wouldn’t know because I’ve never been cool, but it seems pretty hip. Just FYI, for all of the internet-sluts that read this site, you’ll probably have already seen this. It’s pretty old, but it’s definitely one of the forgotten classics. The “Top That” rap from the movie Teen...

Who Doesn't Love Racial Standup Comedy?
I’m a sucker for some good standup. Probably because I envy the courage it takes to get up on stage and just talk for a while. By yourself. Here is Derrick Comedy and 30 Rock’s (writer) Donald Glover doing a little standup comedy. Not for the easily offended… but then again not much on this whole blog is.

If You Watch 24, Say "Hell Ya!"
Yes, this is the third time around with the Everyday Guy raps, but it’s still funny… and now HD.

Yes, one of the motorcycles crashes. No, it isn’t all that dramatic. Yes, keep watching the video until the end. From Failblog.

My Real Son Died of Dysentery
Okay, I understand that this site doesn’t exactly promote extended attention spans, but everyonceinawhile an article comes along that is so great that I need to have faith that at least a few of you out there will take the time to read it. Right now, that article is “No Son of Mine Plays Oregon Trail Like That.” Enjoy. Thanks Jamie.

Kickin' It, Like Chun Li
I have to admit, these videos are less hilarious and more just awesome. Rap songs about Street Fighter II from the perspective of Balrog. Thanks to Chris W.

You’ve seen them go hardcore on the drums, now watch Bert and Ernie throw down the rhymes.
