International comedy festivals are a fantastic way to discover hilarious comedians from all over the globe. I hadn’t heard of Britain’s Jimmy Carr before watching this clip from the Montreal comedy festival, but I won’t forget him in a hurry.
This video is one of the funniest I’ve seen in a long time. The problem for its star, P Diddy, or whatever his name is his week, is that it’s not meant to be. In fact, Puffy takes it completely seriously.
It’s just an advert for Diddy’s new fragrance, I Am King, but he seems to think it’s a movie, and that his acting skills in it are good enough to mean he could be the next James Bond. Oh, how wrong can one man be?
(more…)Black Friday may have now been and gone, with many of you eager bargain-hunters sporting the bruises to prove it, but Cyber Monday is still to come. This gives shoppers a chance to nab a great deal from the comfort of their own home.
Cyber Monday is the online shopping equivalent of Black Friday. Instead of venturing out to brave the crowds, why not just sit at home drinking coffee while buying everyone’s Christmas presents?
(more…)Louis Theroux is one of those journalists unafraid to step off the beaten path and talk to some really out-there characters. This is a snippet from his program focused on evangelical Christians.
Star Trek was a revolutionary TV show that brought sci-fi to the masses. And Star Wars then did the same on the big screen. But what would happen if they were to come face to face?
I love both Star Wars and Star Trek, and have watched them almost religiously all my life. So what better for fans such as myself to see Darth Vader and Captain Jean-Luc Picard come face to face in a battle of wills.
(more…)Not being American, or that interested in American football, I must admit that football fight songs, especially those to do with college football, have passed me by a little.
However, this one, called I’m a Ramblin’ Wreck from Georgia Tech, which clearly from its title is the fight song of Georgia Tech, or the Georgia Institute of Technology, is actually quite catchy.
(more…)Perhaps one of the most outspoken beatnik poets was William S. Burroughs. Most of his influential work covered, drugs, homosexuality, death, and of course, politics.
It’s a few days late, but here’s his controversial, ironic and classic poem ‘A Thanksgiving Prayer.’ Read out loud by the man himself.
(more…)The man in this video is Reverend Billy from the Church of Stop Shopping.
As you might guess, he doesn’t approve of Black Friday.
(more…)Fridays are hard. The weekend is so close, but still so far. But some adorable marmosets and some swinging soul music is guaranteed to make the day a little brighter.
The International Space Station is currently in orbit around Earth, with three astronauts living there at any one time, along with any visiting shuttles.
But with that many people in such a small place a once, there’s obviously going to be problems with storing enough water to keep everyone hydrated and happy.
Which is why NASA invented a water purifier capable of turning urine, sweat, and bath water in to perfectly drinkable water. Unfortunately, the tests didn’t always go fully to plan. (more…)
