Happy Find… Forty Inspirational Speeches In Two Minutes

Posted on by sgottahurt

All this needed was the music from “The Natural” to send me completely over the top, but it does what it promises – forty tear-jerking, spirit-rousing, adreneline-pumping (can that be in the same sentence as tear-jerking?) mashed together speeches from films as diverse as “Braveheart,” “Street Fighter,” “Bring It On,” “Stand and Deliver,” “Swingers,” and “Galaxy Quest.” 

Simply put – it’s awesome.  I wanted to list it all, but it might spoil it.

Personally, I think Obama should try to use it at his Inaugural Speech.

Happy Find… Do You Love My Hair?

Posted on by sgottahurt

This song is a tribute to the age old question: what do women look for in a man?

(And my answer to the opposite of that question: a pair of drum-playing twins.)

(Thanks Dave)

Happy Find… Jizz In My Pants

Posted on by sgottahurt

Here’s the latest from The Lonely Island a.k.a. SNL’s Digital Shorts.   The other Dude is Jorma Taccone – he was in “Hot Rod” with Samberg. 

This one’s sure to explode. 

It will blow up huge. 

It’s like the second coming of “Dick in a Box.”

(And guess who the guy doing clean up in aisle three is…)

Happy Find… Misheard Pearl Jam Lyrics

Posted on by sgottahurt

I saw this one awhile ago, but awhile ago, I did not have a blog.  It’s the best of the videos pertaining to Eddie Vedder’s grumbling style of singing.  In this case, it’s Yellow Ledbetter. 

Here’s a little known fact: If Yellow Ledbetter, would Orange follow Yellow?  (That doesn’t make any sense.)

Happy Find… BoHe-Man Rhapsody

Some girl named Emmeline made this a few years back in Windows Movie Maker, so the quality isn’t perfect, but it’s a hoot nonetheless.  I had no idea MerMan was so talented.

Happy Find… Garfield Minus Garfield (Plus Garfield Elsewhere)

Posted on by sgottahurt

There’s a cool website out there called Garfield Minus Garfield, which takes Garfield out of his eponymous uncool strip.  The orginal is by Jim Davis; the reinvention is by Dan Walsh.  Sample:

It's like my life, except I don't have a cat...

It's like my life, except I don't have a cat... but neither does he...

 So I started thinking… since Garfield was unemployed, what if he took on roles in other comic strips?

(NOTE: I planned on making more, but these were quite timing comsuming for a lazy person like me.)

Happy Find… Shawshank Redemption As 80’s Montage

Posted on by sgottahurt

I can say nothing better than what’s to follow.

Lyrics from “Team America: World Police” song, Montage:

The hours approaching, just give it your best 
You've got to reach your prime. 
That’s when you need to put yourself to the test, 
And show us a passage of time, 
We're gonna need a montage (montage) 
Oh it takes a montage (montage) 

Show a lot of things happing at once, 
Remind everyone of what’s going on (what’s going on?) 
And with every shot you show a little improvement 
To show it all would take to long 
That’s called a montage (montage) 
Oh we want montage (montage) 

And anything that we want to go from just a beginner to a pro, 
You need a montage (montage) 
Even Rocky had a montage (montage) 

(Montage…montage) 

Anything that we want to go from just a beginner to a pro, 
You need a montage (montage) 
Oh it takes a montage (montage) 

Always fade out in a montage, 
If you fade out, it seem like more time 
Has passed in a montage, 
Montage

Happy Find… Maria Bamford

Posted on by sgottahurt

Don’t know what it is about Maria Bamford, but after watching this, I was wiping tears from my eyes.  It wasn’t that I was laughing too hard… it was because I was crying.

I first discovered Maria when she was on “Tim and Eric Awesome Show, Great Job!”

Happy Find… Abby Elliott And The Upright Citizens Brigade!

Posted on by sgottahurt

Since the video on my other post about Abby Elliott got pulled, here’s a new one.  It’s from the Upright Citizens Brigade Midnight Show (that’s the YouTube channel it’s from, ‘natch), and it also stars Steve Agee (from “The Sarah Silverman Program”) and Jeff Sloniker.  It’s safe!

Happy Find… The Muppet Whatnot Workshop

Posted on by sgottahurt

Ever see something you didn’t know you wanted because you didn’t know it existed and then when you finally saw that it existed you knew you really wanted it?  **deepbreath**  Well, I just found something I really want that I didn’t know existed.

I can design my own Muppet Whatnot.  What’s a Whatnot, you ask?  So did I!

Apparently, a Whatnot is to the Muppets what a Redshirt is to “Star Trek” – in other words, a stock character, that’s usually lifeless in the end (‘cuz Muppets ain’t real… right?)

I don’t know to what extent the personalizations can go when there are only three body types (the samples they show are fairly unique), but starting in February, it sounds like you should be able to design the Muppet online at FAO Schwarz’s site.

SIDENOTES: I designed a “South Park” version of me.  And here’s a Redshirt Whatnot.
