Christian Bale lost it on the set of Terminator Salvation. You would think it would be directed at director McG, but… it wasn’t. The Director of Photography, Shane Hurlbut, was fiddling with lights during an emotional scene (in T4… SRSLY?) and the Batman removed his cowl and bit down hard.
Thank you to the dearest Madame Librarian for bringing this light into my life:
Original rant with “explanation” here.
On the drive into work, I was stuck behind one of these vans:
Like this, but old and dirty, so not like this.
I was bumming a bit, then I noticed a face staring back at me. The shades in the rear-tinted windows looked like eyelids. The license plate was its teeth/tooth. The break lights were rosy cheeks, and the rusted deadbolt was a nose. The ladders, or whatever the junk was, on top made up the face’s hair.
It made me smile.
(Not So) Artistic Representation
This is like a “Twilight Zone” episode in 18 seconds:
And this like an episode of “According to Jim” in 1:45 minutes, but 1000x funnier:

Duh-duh-DUHDUH! Introducing a pair of lovely sites, Fuck Yeah! Ryan Gosling! and Fuck Yeah! Anne Hathaway!
Gosling’s is a bit Fuck Yeah!-ing-ier than Hathaway’s, but you may think differently. The basic premise is this – take LOLcats, get rid of the cats, add the respective “Hey girl/dude” tagline followed by normal English, and eliminate the stupid LOLspeak. Voila! Some samples:
I feel the creators of these sites are missing out on some other celebrities (although I do love Orson Welles’ quotes on each home page). For example, what about a Fuck Yeah! William Shatner!
…or even a Fuck Yeah! George Clooney!
…or especially a Fuck Yeah! Julie Bowen!
And then there’s always this guy:

The wunderkinds wonderbreads Vistapushers, um, developers at Microsoft have developed a retarded gay lame program called Songsmith. If you’re brave enough to watch the research team’s demonstration video about the product, be my guest and click here.
For those of you wise enough to trust me, which isn’t saying altogether much about either of us if you do, all you need to know is that Songsmith is a music making program. And I use “music making” in the loosest sense.
The premise is this: you hook your mic up to your pc and open the application. You sing a made up song however you want, and the program will create the backup music for you. Srsly.
The fun part is that there’s a YouTube channel by azz100c that contains plenty of famous original vocals run through the program. A few of my favorites are a folksy version of “Eye of the Tiger” by Survivor, and to explain the sound of Billy Idol’s “White Wedding” would spoil the fun.
(Thank you again ever so much Videogum… you rock!)
Watch this and tell me you weren’t effected by it in some way you robot:
It’s like the Long Island Ice Tea of emotions – you get your Aaaaw, then you get your laugh, then you go back to Aaaaw again. The only ingredient missing is a puppy sneeze.
It’s courtesy of Cute Things Falling Asleep. Creator Nick Malis had this to say in Time:
“I once rated a baby a 2, and the mother wrote me and said, ‘I think my baby is more than a 2.’ ” Malis refused to change the rating. “My attitude is this: I didn’t make your baby a 2 — you did. It just happens to be a 2. That’s what it is; I’m sorry.”
Man, I need to see this baby. I found one that combines the same attributes as the above pooch video, and it has 2-rating… but I’d venture to bet that there is more than one ugly sleepy kid on the TripleDoubleU.
I’m just afraid to look.
This could be will be the greatest film ever. It’s set to arrive here in May. Not sure if it will come in theaters or on DVD, but Magnolia’s handling the distribution, so it could be a simultaneous release.
And I’m all about the simultaneous release. Like when you’re helping to hold a fridge or a heavy cabinet, and you both let it go on the count of three… yeah, just like that.
Thank you dearly to Filmdrunk for bringing this video to my attention. If you haven’t seen it before, you haven’t seen anything. If I had this kind of focus, imagine what I could accomplish in this world. Sure, I might tip over the edge of a piano with no one there to catch me, but still…
BONUS: And for Venessa, a follow up to an old Happy Find – Episodes 2 through 4 of “My Best Friend is My Penis.” Plus Episode 1, if you missed it.
This one’s not quite so much a Happy Find as Meh Find. Damn this song for getting stuck in my head in the first place, and damn it again for getting remade into something more tolerable. It’s like getting a butterknife stuck in my head as opposed to a mace. (via IDLYITW)
Vodpod videos no longer available.
Okay, these are pretty old, but I’ve had a very busy day. Accept my apologies or I will sick either of these monster on you… or both.
If they combined forces they’d be the Bedridden Monster.
P.S. For the record, my lack of effort on this post is pretty much up to par with both these clips.
