This is a very well done video by the college humor team showcasing the similarities seen in nearly every video game on the NES. Basically, super boss has a pep-talk with his minions saying “kill him and I’ll wait here, but make sure you kill him so that he doesn’t get to me” – and as always the minions fail. You really can’t trust anyone in the 8-bit world; not even Mike Tyson.
Great cameos here from many games including Super Mario Bros, Mega Man, Metroid, Star Wars (Darth Vader), Ninja Turtles (Shredder), Wolfenstein 3D (Hitler), Aladdin (Jaffar), and many more.
During my day job I spend a lot of time tracking Google and the products that they release. When I first saw a video demonstrating Google Wave, I was intrigued by the product and had high hopes for it. Turns out that it just never really caught on for me and I hardly use it anymore (none of my friends were ever on it).
In the same vein as the above parodies, we now have a video from College Humor that parodies Google’s original wave introduction video. They did a great job when you compare it to the screen shot below. Might not be very funny if you’ve never used Google Wave, but worth posting for those who have.
Is it a stereotype when it’s true? This is literally exactly how Green Bay Packers fans are! I should know, since many of the people who visit this site are “Packer Backers”. I don’t really get the appeal of the Packers, but then again, I carry the weight of the tortured soul of a Minnesota Vikings fan.
If there are two things that I like more than anything else, it’s high fives and sports. If you wanted to add a third thing into the fold, it would be “mugging” for the camera. This video has all of this and more. Basically, two awesome dudes (more awesome than you and me combined) got paid to have a camera follow them around the Super Bowl festivities while high-fived each other. Sounds like a dream job to me.
There are some great cameos in this video… almost too many to count. Kim Kardashian, Tiki Barber, the Colts, the Saints, Don Johnson and Pamela Anderson to name a few.
Just watch it… and don’t take my word for it either! This was recommended to me by not one, but TWO Amandas!
I must admit, I have grown to love the show Jersey Shoreon MTV. I originally just watched it to make fun of it, but I have to be honest, some of these people are hilariously self aware know exactly what they are doing with the “jerz guido” look and stereotype. They are conscious of the fact people make fun of them, embrace it, and actually encourage it to a certain extent. It’s almost to the point that I respect some of these people for knowing exactly who they are in life. Most people can’t say that.
In addition, their publicity tour across America since the show aired has been pretty entertaining as well. I already linked to the Jersey Shore Christmas Story on Jimmy Kimmel (in that video, I called them stupid and said they “have no idea how dumb they look on TV” – now that I have watched several more episodes of the show, I am convinced that they know exactly what they are doing. I can’t help but respect that.
Not sure if Johnny Knoxville agreed to this video, but it’s a good one. The premise? A bunch of “slutty” women are in a bus to take part on his show, and the bus crashes. Chaos ensues.
I must warn you that there is some NSFW language, and just a tinge of nudity from one of the “sluts” – buyer beware.
Here is a decent video making fun of Tiger Woods starring the guy from NBC’s Community. It starts off a little slow and gets fairly creepy at the end… sort of like the whole Tiger Woods saga did…
For those of you who haven’t seen the Prank War Videos from College Humor, take a look at our previous post on the subject. Two guys from College Humor (Amir and Streeter) have been engaged in a prank war for the past several years, and each prank gets more and more bold.
This video features Amir getting back at Streeter by scaring the shit out of him during a group skydiving incident. It’s equal parts funny as scary (I would crap my pants if this happened to me).
In the prank, it is staged so that when Streeter pulls the rip cord on his parachute and it comes completely out of the pack. Then he is told that the safety chute won’t handle his weight, so they are going to fall to their death.
Pretty scary scenario if it were real… fortunately, he’s just getting pranked by his buddy.
I particularly love this video because my family had a Ford Taurus station wagon growing up, or as my sister called it “a grocery getter.”
Grocery getting aside, our family managed to get a lot of mileage out of this beast, and my sister was able to completely pimp out the stereo system, complete with a bass cannon! Damn that bass cannon was cool!
Anyway, the folks at the Onion do it again with their sarcastic perspective on saving money; just buy a really old piece of shit car. A Ford Taurus is a natural fit.
