Watchmen comes out on DVD today, so to celebrate the release of this amazing movie, I thought I’d embed this very hilarious spoof video that someone created. If you haven’t seen Watchmen yet, don’t worry, it’s nothing like this cartoon.

This is a photo I took in Himeji, Japan, and I thought it was a hilarious name for a tattoo studio. I think I’ll submit it to Fail Blog and see if they like it…

One of the things I’m looking forward to as a parent is being able to use all the great new technology out there for being a parent. This is clearly not one of those technologies.

There. Are. No. Words.

I saw this video over on Engadget and thought it was worth posting – it’s just too funny. First, it amazes me that journalists wouldn’t put their phones in vibrate mode out of simple courtesy. Secondly, to have it happen over and over again, without the other journalists in the room taking that as a sign to check their own phone is almost incomprehensible. And that guy at the end…I don’t know if I’ve ever seen something that rude happen on TV recently. It’s no wonder the Press Secretary rarely lasts for more than two years – talk about a tough job.

I thought this video was too funny not to share – and anyone that has a brother will know exactly what I’m talking about.

A few weeks back, when there was still some snow on the ground, Ashley and I went to Best Buy to pick something up. It was about 11AM, an hour after they opened. I was stunned to see the way people were parked around this one area. It was like some sort of “who can park the worst contest” – and everybody was a winner. You might expect to see this type of thing if there was a huge pile of snow, and eight hours later the snow is all melted and the cars look parked funny…but it was still a cold day and the snow wasn’t melting much at all. Weirdest thing I’ve seen in a long time. I should call M. Night Shyamalan, I think he’s looking for movie ideas…

I know this shouldn’t make me laugh (poor Owen and Beru!) but I had a laughing fit when saw this on someone’s Flickr account…so awful, but so funny when you consider the marketing machine of Star Wars in the ’70s where they released action figures for every guy in a costume who had even a split second of on-screen time. Remember all those robots from the Jawa sandcrawler? My cousin had all of them – and there were a lot to be had! But they never made Uncle Lars and Aunt Beru action figures in this particular incarnation…

Don’t ask me why, but I was wondering who did the voice of Augustus “Cole Train” Cole from Gears of War, because the voice sounded quite familiar but I couldn’t place it. It turns out the voice is none other than Lester “Mighty Rasta” Speight, better known by many as Terry Tate: Office Linebacker. If you haven’t watched the videos, they’re some of the funniest “corporate” commercials and short videos ever made – check ‘em all out. I only wish they’d made more of them – they probably ran out of stunt guys to take the hits from the 6 foot 5 Speight! My favourite Office Linebacker short film is below. Enjoy!
