Into Every Life a Little Shit Must Dance…
Posted by: | CommentsDid your mother ever tell about the dangers of playing in traffic? Well, seemingly this guy’s didn’t.
The way the guy taking the video says “Oh, shit…” at the end as if he had to ruminate on the implications of what he’d just seen is priceless.
Assuming our little dancer survived, what do you think his next “Stupid Human Trick” will be to prolong (if that’s the right word) his fifteen seconds of fame?
Gay Gibson Starts a Slow Week

Protection Against Ramming Into Someone From Behind: Russian Edition
Posted by: | CommentsThis is apparently from a Russian car insurance ad. Kinda NSFW, if you care about that sort of thing (and let’s be frank: if you do, you’re in the wrong location).

Hitler Hates Cats and YouTube: Not Necessarily in that Order Edition
Posted by: | CommentsAnother Untergang parody about the removal of Untergang parodies. Sehr komisch, wie der Führer sagen wurde.
How long will this one last? Maybe a while, as someone at Reason claims the complainers have no case. Then again, who reads Reason, and in any case, YouTube may not care.
Movie Studios Should Bezahlen im Eigenen Blut
Posted by: | Comments
Keyser has complained in the past about asshole movie studies insisting that stupid little clips of their movies be taken down from YouTube. First, Titanic went down, along with the “but this ship can’t sink!” clip that used to appear at the end of a number of Lair postings on the economy. Then the rendition of “Over There” by Jimmy Cagney from the movie Yankee Doodle Dandy that was the perfect conclusion to a post on Afghanistan went down.
And now the assholes who own Untergang have decided to apply the Final Solution to all those Untergang parodies. (At least one wound up on the Lair. Pretty sure the one about Hillary Clinton hearing bad primary news is out there too, but God only knows where, if him.)
Apart from all general assholery of this, Keyser commented before that it’s not as if anyone’s not going to rent Titanic because of the little snippets on YouTube. Indeed, the clip from an old movie like YDD can only be good advertising. And how many people were impelled to rent Untergang because of those parodies? Surely, more than the number that didn’t rent it because they saw a clip of one scene with some goofy subtitles.
The world is truly run by idiots. And let’s see how long this one lasts:

Post scriptum. You know, it sounds like he says “in eigenem Blut.” If that’s so, correct the title of the post.
Jocular Bake-Off of the Day: Cerebral Brits Vs. Internet Puppet Vulgarity
Posted by: | CommentsIn one corner, we have Hugh Laurie and Stephen Fry making fun of British television intellectuals talking about language (or so it seems):
In the other corner, we have some puppet making fun of some sort of internet personality Keyser’s never heard and some sort of internet activity he likewise has never heard of (NSFW, if you care about such things, but let’s face it: if you do, you’re probably in the wrong place already):
Truth be told, though the British audience seemed to find Jeeves and Worcester pretty funny, Keyser didn’t laugh once. It’s just like Monty Python: some of it’s hilarious, and some of it totally isn’t (to Keyser, that is). This must fit into the latter category. The Mossberg thing is pretty stupid, but Keyser chuckled once or twice. Maybe that means he’s pretty stupid, too.
Guess we already knew that…

Keyser’s Not Sure He Could Pass This Test
Posted by: | CommentsChrist, this is more complicated than one of those competitions on Survivor! It is true that he gets a little assist at one point, but this puts the rodent brain in a whole new light.
Bet this guy wouldn’t have been taken in by Obama…
