Hibbidy-Wah?! I Don’t Think They Thought This One Through

They being the award-winning chef,  Jeremy Schmid, and the not thinking this one through being naming your sausage company (and website) Little Boys!

Okay, it’s from New Zealand, but still… they sure do look tasty.

Ummm... or yum?

Hibbidy-Wah?! This Ad Played Before A Kid’s Movie?!

I didn’t see Harry Potter and the End of a Cash Cow Part II this weekend, but apparently in some theaters this ad was shown:

It’s a vast improvement over less fresh Summer’s Eve commercials:

It’s your move Massengill. Time to take this campaign…

…into the future:

Hibbidy-Wah?! Wait, We Really Almost Lost Detroit?!

Local musical acts and local tragedies are a lot alike – they usually suck.

But sometimes a near-tragedy can inspire a pretty good tune from a (former) local act.  I’ve written about The Victorious Secrets before (you might know them better as the Free Credit Score or Report or Whatever website commercial guys).  Well, the lead singer of that group started another group called Dale Earnhardt Jr. Jr. and they gave us this – We Almost Lost Detroit:

Upon further (little) searching, I learned that the above ditty is a remake of a song by Gil Scott-Heron and Brian Jackson:

And then I found out that the Fermi 1 plant did have a partial nuclear meltdown back in 1966, so we really almost lost Detroit…

If that happened, there would be no:

Mjusayin’…

Hibbidy-Wah?! True Love Takes Hard Wood

I caught a portion of this story on CNN one night while I was at the bar (where else would I be).  And there’s tons tens of videos of this “couple” on YouTube (unfortunately a lot of them are mocking the lovebirds):

Sightings of them walking along roadsides in New York are so common, they even have a Facebook page.

What’s amazing to me is that he’s been devoted to her for 25 years, and she hasn’t changed a bit.

 

Hibbidy-Wah?! Jack And Rose, We’ll Never Forget Ye, Mostly Because Ye’ll Never Let us

I don’t feel like trying today… kinda like how James Cameron didn’t try to be clever with his screenplay for Titanic:

Hibbidy-Wah?! Wait, I Know That Zombie!

Having grown up filming all kinds of skits on VHS, it’s nice to finally see my brother filmed in HD.

(SIDENOTE: I believe it’s his finest acting to date*.)

*He’s the slow doorbell ringing zombie.

Hibbidy-Wah?! What Does This Mean?! Please Someone Tell Me So I Can Sleep Tonight!

Wh.
At.
The.
Fu.
Ck.

I can find no other words than Hibbidy-Wah?! and even that’s not enough.

I might start crying.

The only possibly insight I’ve found in regard to this atrocity is another ad:

It's still not adding up.

Is it that the little girl on the store display is sad because she has a diaper rash, or her dad’s hands are rough from work, or–
hmmph
I don’t even want to go down that rabbit hole–
hmmph…
I wish I didn’t use any of those words above, like go down or hole
grrrrr…
Why does lube have to carry such a negative connotation?!
Aaaaaargh!!!

Hibbidy-Wah?! Can I Work For Lucasfilm Pretty Please?!

I don’t care that this building will be in Singapore, I still want to go to there:

*Jawas not included.

What’s weird is I wouldn’t care about anything Star Wars anymore if The Clone Wars cartoon wasn’t so good… and that’s exactly what will be produced in this state-of-the-art artists’ haven shaped like a Sandcrawler!

Son of a Sith!  It’s not fair!

Hibbidy-Wah?! WTF Is Wrong With Skittles Candy?!

I don’t know if these air on TV, but I’ve only just discovered them.

What they do they have to do with Skittles?  I have little idea.  But if these rainbow-colored, bite-sized candies made me trip rainbow-colored, bite-sized balls anywhere near the level the makers of these commercials had to be… I’d probably still not eat them.  I’m more of a Reese’s or Twix guy – their commercials only make me think of two things getting mixed together or pause.

Hibbidy-Wah?! The Difference Has Never Been Made So Clear (And Catchy)

Thank you, thank you, thank you Parry Gripp!  Now I know what makes a turtle a turtle and a tortoise a tortoise!

This is a real Blastoise.
