Eight Videos
Another week, another batch of weird and, hopefully, entertaining videos. For those of you on a non-Flash friendly device please visit the playlist on Youtube and cross your fingers that someone will come up with an HTML5 friendly method of embedding playlists someday. For the rest of you, enjoy the embed above or just visit the individual videos that pique your interest below:
  • How To Get A Guy To Notice You While You're Having Sex With Him - obviously a bit of NSFW subject matter and illustration here but, man, it is perfectly absurd and hilarious. The cooking illustration made me lose it. via Mixel.
  • Children Enjoy Dinosaur - if this happened during my childhood it would either be a moment I relived forever through nightmares or through joyous recollection.
  • Admiral Ackbar - Penetrate It - quick little behind the scenes puppetry of everyone's favorite Star Wars weirdo.
  • Crater Face - short film animation with some feel good vibes coursing throughout it. The end is sweet and, oddly, a little brutal too. via Josh.
  • Casa de mi Padre trailer - I don't want to know if this trailer is real or not. I have decided to believe that it is and await the full-length release.. whenever that may, or may not, be.
  • Star Trek: TNG: The XXX Parody - this is completely safe for work (especially more-so than that Onion video). Honestly, aside from the bad wigs, this is an entirely accurate portrayal of the show.
  • Scooter Computer and Mr. Chips - a previously unreleased Schoolhouse Rocks short about computers that was, I assume, created to quell the public's fear about the forthcoming computer overlords. The best part is that the musical interludes feel like a subversive Pink Floyd b-side that it's lying to you.. Mr. Chips knows he will be sentient one day.
  • Pop Tart Cat! - an exercise in endurance. How long can you make it through this video?
BONUS
  • Zwack - yea, I posted it yesterday but go watch it now if you were putting it off for a more appropriate time (like right now).
  • Paper Record Player - really phenomenal project.
  • Concept Camera: The WVIL - detachable lens that still works remotely. I can foresee this actually happening as long as the battery recharging process wasn't entirely cumbersome. The proposed UI is rather neat too.
  • Nicknames - not a video but look at that illustration. Ridiculous.
Have a great weekend! Tomorrow is Record Store Day - so don't miss out on any / all festivities going on in your area.
