Radar Detector

If you like to inexplicably smile like an idiot, I recommend watching this.

Magic Window

Dave Wiskus — Thu, 29 Apr 2010 16:32:15 +0000

The best app demo video I’ve ever seen.

Gaga Roulette

Dave Wiskus — Fri, 26 Mar 2010 04:10:14 +0000

Not safe for work. But still somehow less offensive than the original video.

Academy Award Winning Movie Trailer

Link to video. Statement stressing my enjoyment of said video. Punchy closing line.

The Coolest Guy in the World

Dave Wiskus — Sun, 07 Mar 2010 18:25:33 +0000

I really can’t argue with that title.

Ocarina of Awesome

Dave Wiskus — Fri, 19 Feb 2010 07:30:43 +0000

Watching this makes me want one of these.

The Most Useless Machine Ever

Dave Wiskus — Mon, 04 Jan 2010 17:10:52 +0000

Wow. That’s useless.

Charlie Brown Kwanzaa

Dave Wiskus — Fri, 04 Dec 2009 20:46:32 +0000

As hilarious as it is offensive. Definitely not safe for work.

What Comcast Means to Hulu

Dave Wiskus — Thu, 03 Dec 2009 19:18:34 +0000

Fake Steve sums up the Comcast/NBC deal quite nicely:

That means NBC gets thrown to the lions, and two dying business models — a broadcast TV network and a big dumb cable operator — have found a way to sink faster, by tying themselves together.

Unboxing!

Dave Wiskus — Fri, 13 Nov 2009 17:56:06 +0000

Do you like seeing shit in a box get removed from said box? This is the site for you.

Mobile Homes

Dave Wiskus — Fri, 06 Nov 2009 23:00:39 +0000

Bizarrely honest.

The Syfy Channel

Dave Wiskus — Mon, 16 Mar 2009 03:49:30 +0000

What the fuck?

The main reason for the change, according to Bonnie Hammer, former head of the network and now president of NBC Universal Cable Entertainment and Universal Cable Productions, and her successor David Howe, is that the name “SCI FI” was too limiting.

Well sure. ”Sci Fi” might give the impression that they air programs related to science fiction, and not just endless hours of shitty snake movies, fake wrestling, and dipshits not finding ghosts.

Star Wars Retold

Somtimes the Internet makes me so happy.

The End of the Rickroll

Dave Wiskus — Thu, 27 Nov 2008 22:29:12 +0000

Nothing will ever beat this. Game over. It was fun while it lasted.

Letterman and McCain

Dave Wiskus — Thu, 25 Sep 2008 19:27:56 +0000

Remind me to never cancel an appearance on David Letterman’s show at the last minute. He gets really pissed off.

There Will Be Brawl

Dave Wiskus — Wed, 24 Sep 2008 05:00:06 +0000

Ever wish someone would make a gritty live-action web series about Nintendo characters? This is your lucky day.

In a Dystopian Mushroom Kingdom, corruption and avarice reign supreme. Even the greatest heroes of the land have buckled beneath the overwhelming will of the amoral elite. When a series of grisly crimes pushes an unlikely champion to seek the truth, a mystery unfolds that could completely destroy everything he holds dear.

For what it is, the story is strangely compelling.

Sarah Palin

Dave Wiskus — Fri, 05 Sep 2008 05:21:29 +0000

Jon Stewart, turning the mirror on Palin’s defenders.

Bigfoot

Dave Wiskus — Fri, 15 Aug 2008 23:13:42 +0000

TechCrunch reports on the Bigfoot press conference:

There were, of course, skeptics: “Why didn’t they [sic] hunters contact the authorities?”, “Why didn’t you give us more evidence today?”, “How did you manage to find a creature that has eluded modern technology and civilization for centuries?” they asked.

It wasn’t until I heard Biscardi’s response that I became a believer: “When was the last time you found a bear skeleton in the woods?”

Huh? What does that prove?

The Dark Knight for Kids

Dave Wiskus — Fri, 15 Aug 2008 21:40:34 +0000

This fan video is cute, but it’s also pretty good.
