Aki Ra - Landmine Removal Enthusiast
Wrong.
Video.
Reddit.
The guy we see here is Aki Ra, who was part of the Khmer Rouge army when he was 9 years old. Twenty years on he's running around disarming landmines in Cambodia. He claims to have cleared over 10,000 mines in that time.
Seriously, balls of steel. Note that he shows the camera the detonator point, explaining that if that's pressed down the mine explodes... then gives it a couple of taps with the plate he just removed. Think your brutal riffs make you hardcore? Nope.
Abandoned Funpark Tour
Wrong.
Time-thief.
Video.
This is kinda sad, but also wonderfully creepy. Apparently when Hurricane Katrina was coming they shut down the park and enough damage was done that they never re-opened it. By now I believe it'll have been torn down completely.
It's Fucking Bedtime!!
Funny.
Wrong.
Video.
Well, I guess that's one way to get your point across... I can't help but imagine that it probably hurt when he landed though. Then again, I guess that's why I'm a boring person who doesn't fly-kick lights...
George Takei Points Out The Real Enemy
Funny.
Geeky.
Old-school.
Video.
As usual George Takei succintly points out the important details to us. I really do get excited whenever I hear that he's released another PSA, and this one will have a special place in many of our hearts.
Virgin Diaries
Funny.
Wrong.
Religion.
Video.
Well, this is awkward, are they trying to eat each other? Here we have a clip from an upcoming reality TV show about adults who've never had sex, and in the case of the couple getting married never even kissed.
Texts From Bennett
Funny.
Wrong.
Time-thief.
Weirdly enough, the guy who is rapping about pancakes below also provides us with entertainment by documenting the text messages of his cousin Bennett. His cousin is... well... ridiculous. Go see for yourself, seriously. It'll make you die a little inside.
No, I'm not sure if they're legit or if Lethal Mac is just trolling the internet, but damn.
Rapping And Pancakes - Together At Last
Funny.
Cute.
Video.
First he suddenly broke his stride to inform us that the pancake was done Rain Man-style, then he referenced Chuck Testa. From there on in he could do no wrong by me. Seriously though, the man can move his mouth!
Mario Responds To PETA
Funny.
Geeky.
Wrong.
Old-school.
Video.
Many of you probably didn't even see the unpleasant Super Mario Ripoff that PETA put up on their website, but I did. I even tried to play that abortion of playability... so this made me smile.
Daria & Jane Cosplay - Doing It Right
Geeky.
Cute.
Wrong.
Old-school.
Based on their Deviantart Gallery it would seem that someone has a thing for Daria. I've got to say I think they did a damn fine job of re-creating the look... No... seriously. It's like a condition of my probation.
Viking Horns FTW
Funny.
Cute.
Wrong.
Time-thief.
Video.
Aaah yes, the age-old Viking tradition of duelling guitarists... Good to see that the the old ways are still being taught to the younger generation. Also: VIKING VOLTRON!
Big Brother Is Watching You Fight In Bikinis
Wrong.
So... nine Turkish women were allegedly held against their will after being tricked into thinking they were contestants in a Reality TV show... They were told to fight each other, to wear bikinis and dance by the villa pool.
Why the hell didn't we think of the "Fake Reality TV Show" gimmick first?
Zelda Medley
Geeky.
Cute.
Time-thief.

Is there some sort of recognized condition that results in the desire to have sex with your video game heroes? I think I'm exhibiting symptoms over here... I mean... I... Damn you Mr Fish, damn you to hell!
