The College Humor Prank War

Post author By web gangsta
Post date March 9, 2009

The guys over at COLLEGE HUMOR have had a lot of fun at each others’ expense over the years by pranking each other.

To date, there have been seven classic pranks, each one escalating in over-the-topness from the previous one. Let’s take a look at where it started, and where it has led to so far. Some things that you can take from the following videos are:

having a sense of humor is required if you work for a website called College Humor
don’t get into a prank war with people who are funnier and more creative than you are, who also have a seemingly unlimited amount of money and friends to assist them

Video Fun: Wedding Reception Dances

Post author By web gangsta
Post date March 4, 2009

We’ve all been to interesting weddings.

Some I’ve attended were memorable due to the groomsmen (they were all in a band together), the catering decorations (the official photographer was taking pictures of all the wedding guests licking the ice sculpture over the course of the evening), or the bride sharing with everyone about the types of tranquilizers she was on that day. I even have a tale to tell about what songs NOT to play at a wedding reception, but that’s a different story for a different day.

For now, take a gander at what these wedding receptions were like. They all seem like fun, don’t they?

I think what we can take away from this is that what you think is an original idea may already have been done. So if you’re thinking of doing a fun dance at the reception, try to be a bit original.

Video Fun: Baby Got Back

Sir Mix-a-Lot’s BABY GOT BACK has inspired a few other people to make their own versions of the song, whether it be a remake of the song itself or a different take on the music video.

Take a look at what I’ve found:

THE ORIGINAL

This is what a song would sound like if the lyrics were a literal description of what was going on in the music video itself. You can find more of these over at LITERAL MUSIC VIDEOS.

The Evolution of Dance, Part 2

Post author By web gangsta
Post date February 12, 2009

You may not know the name Judson Laipply, but you’d recognize his ORANGE CRUSH t-shirt and crazy dance moves from being one of The Most Watched YouTube Videos EVER, a little ditty called THE EVOLUTION OF DANCE. Let’s take a look, shall we?

I don’t know if you saw the announcement, but Judson has released THE EVOLUTION OF DANCE 2, with all new songs and new dances. I personally don’t find it as fresh as the original one was, but I applaud the addition of some moves that deserved to be in the first version.

Asher Roth: I Love College

Post author By web gangsta
Post date February 11, 2009

A friend of mine reminded me of this video that I saw a while ago but completely forgot about needing to share as well: I LOVE COLLEGE by Asher Roth. So I’ll give the inspiration credit to him, and post the video here anyway:

Some might say that this video is a college fantasy, dreamed up just for the song. Maybe it all depends on the school you went to, but mine was pretty darn close to this some of the time (or so I heard).

Not all the time, that would just be crazy talk.

Asher Roth promoted himself really big on MySpace before being discovered. For once, being Tom’s friend has paid off for someone.

A Bra for Men – The New Trend in Men’s Underwear

Post author By web gangsta
Post date February 11, 2009

A bra for men has become the hottest selling men’s underwear item on a Japanese online shopping site.

It comes in three colors: black, pink, and white. The reporter’s closing words at the end is pure understatement: “Today, I’m feeling a little awkward because I’m wearing a bra for the first time in my life.” Really? A little awkward?

Every Curse Word on HBO’s The Sopranos, ever

Post author By web gangsta
Post date February 10, 2009

Everyone knows that The Sopranos on HBO just wasn’t the same in its censored, rehashed version that was aired on A&E during its so-called “syndication”.

I know that they filmed the series with two scripts specifically for the syndicated market, but the softer censored version just didn’t do the original justice.

So here it is, a 27 minutes-long recap of every swear word used on The Sopranos, shown in chronological order.

UPDATE:

Looks like the original has been taken down. Try viewing part one, until it too goes away…
