Just in case you thought all humor had drained out of my blog today, here's a fine video involving bird poop, as you probably expected:

Have you seen that new All Bran ad on TV? No? Check it out below...there are some really great visual...um...metaphors...

You might say the strange words that are the title of this post were, collectively, the catch phrase for the whole trip to Atlanta this week. That being the case, I think it's finally time I shared it's origin, whether you like it or not :-)

That, my friends, is from "Tim and Eric Awesome Show Great Job" - a seriously demented show that typically airs on Adult Swim too late for me to watch. If you get a chance, look for their clip about child clowns, too. You may or may not regret it, depending on how many neurons are misfiring in your head right now.

The Sneeze made my day with the long-overdue return of "Steve Don't Eat It."

Call it derivative (hamster dance, anyone?), call it stupid.

I can't stop laughing at this "remix" of a portion of an Arby's commercial:

Sometimes Married To the Sea makes me smile.

The Non-Expert delivers a hilarious, musical entry today.

I ordered some pizza, but instead McSweeney's delivered a heaping helping of humor.

Sometimes I wish Anthony Bourdain was my uncle. Thanks to Kottke for the tip on this one, and be sure to click the menu to read the accompanying commentary from the hilariously cranky chef:

McSweeney's strikes again with a fine lampooning of Thomas Kinkade.

Nice find from swissmiss:

I found this gem via Coudal Partners' website (pardon some harsh language later on):

This short film is like an amplified version of how my mind works. Sigh.

Thanks to John Gruber for linking up one of the funniest ads I've seen in ages:

If you'd like to see the version that was too wide for my blog, check out the original.

What better way to celebrate 500 posts and over two years of reasonably consistent blogging than a post that sums up the very ethos of my website?

I just finished reading about the recall of an arm-wrestling video game in Japan on the BBC News' website. Apparently some unlucky folks are breaking their arms on the device, and while "Even women should be able to beat it," according to a company spokesman, the game is being removed as a precaution.

I think I'd rather watch Over the Top anyway :-)

Now I ask you, seriously. Who would want to use the first floor?

You know, sometimes I feel like I know my buddy Patrick's co-workers better than I know my own. Maybe it's the common interest in general Interwebs Geekery that fosters such a notion.

Anyway, one such co-worker is Phil Barbato, and he writes a comic strip. Check out Patrick and Trey immortalized in the latest edition (and click the image to see the whole thing):

Ze Frank linked up to this hilarious and very well done parody of a speech from our president:

I'm no baseball fan, but I still have to laugh at the so-called broken home run record by Barry Bonds. That's why I love this t-shirt design from Busted Tees:

One of the funniest editorial cartoons I've seen in quite some time:

Thanks to Dan Cederholm, I just laughed my butt off (and was thoroughly amazed) because of this YouTube clip he linked to in a Twitter posting:

I think this speaks for itself:

Thanks to Fake Steve Jobs for pointing out this hilarious parody:

Couldn't resist:

They call me the Hiphopopotamus.
I got flows that glow like phosphorus, poppin' off of the top of this esophagus.
I'm not a water-dwelling mammal from Africa that's moved to the metropolis and been taught how to break dance.
Where did you get that preposterous hypothesis?
Did Steve tell you that?
What's he got to do with it?
What kinda of rapping name is "Steve"? Steve?

I've found myself quite into the musical comedy duo, Flight of the Conchords, lately. They recently landed themselves a show on HBO (as of last night with four episodes). While the television production is fairly funny, it appears mostly an attempt to rehash (so far) their songs in the context of a strange sitcom.

Where they really shine, in my mind, is on stage such as this performance of "Albi the Racist Dragon":

Some of their stuff has some profanity and some lewdness, but on the whole these guys are funny because of genuine wit. Be sure to look for "The Hiphopopotamus vs. The Rhymenoceros" on YouTube as well.

Take that, Apple!
