Ok…this may be gross to some, funny to others, and kinky to a few.

Whatever the case, I laughed when this was the first video returned on a search for ‘pimple’ in Youtube.

Looks pretty rational to me. Even if the car did actually go by, he was standing next to it, not in front of it. However, I’d still be willing to bet Kobe Bryant actually *could* do that stunt, thought I’m sure the shoes would have nothing to do with it.

A very catchy tune by a very cool band. And a cool video to boot!

Not sure why, but I really dig this band’s singles, ever since Portions for Foxes came out. I’m gonna try to catch them next time they come through Asheville!

Man, did I wish I was black.

This song’s beat is still emblazoned upon my mind, as it forever shall be. Don’t forget the follow-up song, Roxanne’s Revenge.

I kinda felt obliged to post this, since it’s the Mother’s Day weekend and all. Thanks for the link, Tony

I know every one of you has spent at least 3 minutes of your life wondering what Grimace is. I hate to think how many collective hours (days? weeks?) that is for humanity to have wasted. The big purple thing that hangs around Ronald McDonald had a gangsta’s roots, apparently. Somewhere along the way, Ronald must have slapped him silly with a big greasy french fry and converted him from the Dark Side. It looks like Ronald chopped off four of his arms in the process, because these days, Grimace only has 2

This story details more about this amazing video, but the video itself is pretty darn incredible. In short, lion cub is rescued and raised, then set free in Africa. The humans set out to find the cub a year later, who has since become head of his pack, and this video tells the story of what happened next.
