Flying Donkey Frightens Russian Sunbathers
No doubt Yakov Smirnoff would have something unfunny to say about parasailing donkeys in soviet Russia, but Russia is all capitalist now, so screw his worn out joke. This donkey flies for the free market!
Seriously. It was part of an advertising gimmick.
Ever since Sense & Sensibility & Zombies, it has been apparent that gawdawefully dull Jane Austen books can actually be made interesting with the addition of a heaping helping of something awesome. Jane Austen’s Fight Club seems to prove the theory. Though to be fair, I’m not sure there is anything so boring that a little Fight Club wouldn’t make it watchable.
Alt-text: “Dear editors of Homeopathy Monthly: I have two small corrections for your July issue. One, it’s spelled “echinacea”, and two, homeopathic medicines are no better than placebos and your entire magazine is a sham.”
I Have two small corrections for Randall: One, homeopathy’s primary tenant is that like cures like, so that to get pregnant homeopathically, you’d actually want highly-diluted morning-after pills. Diluted semen would be a contraceptive. And two, the other main tenant is that the more diluted it is, the stronger it is, so you’d actually want to water it down like 30,000 times, not just 30.
Yes folks, homeopathy is just that crazy. (via XKCD)
HuffPo sticks the words of so-called “conservative christians” in jesus paintings and hilarity ensues. I tell ya, republicans say the darndest things.
SEX AND THE CITY 2: Yap yap yap yap yap yap yap yap YAP bock bock yap yap hee haw zzzzzzzz.
The best movie review in the history of criticism has just been written about the worst movie in the history of cinema. I know I have a tendency to abuse superlatives, but in this case, it is totally warranted. Sex and the City 2 really is that bad, and this review really is that good. Click the annoying cunts in the desert to read it.
Seriously though, can’t wait for this to get Rifftraxed.
The funniest abortion comic you’ll read this week. (via Digg)
I’ve always been impressed by mashups the same way that a cave man would be impressed by a flashlight. I have no fucking idea how music works, so to me, mixing two different songs together is pretty much voodoo. Well the Australian comedy group Axis of Awesome (epic name, BTW) just took away some of the magic. As it turns out, about half the pop songs ever written use the same four-chord progression (fun fact - they’re all ripping off Pachelbel’s Canon in D). In this bit, they string together several dozen of them in a four-chord medley of win. Now, off to the internets to find more stuff from these guys! (via Digg)
These are the things that amuse me.
I am easily amused.
