Just becuase he can say these things...

...doesn't mean he should.

Politics - Your Superficiality is Showing

Ridiculous arrogance by this Fox News-oh. Gets taken down a pegg.

I Jizzed...

In My Pants...

Those Guys off of that Development show Gets all Political

Politicomedy - Palin on SNL

This is the best approach they could have taken. Don't let her speak - just have her sit there and awkwardly smile while you take the piss. Bravo.

Politics - Obama Pie

Some dry pie-based banter from Obama



(thanks VideoSift)

Politico-Sports-Entertainment - Putin Will Throw You

When John McCain looks in his eyes he sees three letters... T.K.O.

Politics - Matt Damon commentates on Palin

Some enjoyable angry dryness.



(found through the A.V. Club)

Politics - Blair on Jon

Yesterday Blair appeared on the Jon Show. I am glad that Jon didn't shy away from the more difficult questions...

Part I
Part II
(stupid embedded links don't work)

Film - Bond vs. Bond

While reading about/listening to the new Bond theme from Alicia Keys and Jack White, I found this number from Joe Buxton (of Adam and Joe) - it's fantastic!

Politics - Whaaa?

Did anybody else also think that Tina Fey just got chosen as the Republican vice-presidential nominee?

News - Coincidence?

Comedy - A Nice Little Song

Comedy - Poehler gets her own show

This could be interesting - but does she have the chops to pull it off? Discuss.

Politics - Intellectuals are Stupid

What smarmy East Coast type thought this would be a good New Yorker cover illustration?

Media - Seth MacF and Google team up

The format of this venture sounds interesting - Seth's work could potentially translate to the 2 minute format well.

And there's even more good Seth news here...

Media - Can you believe this shiz?

Fox News gets criticised, so they doctor the photos of their critics to make em look uglier:

Media - The O'Reilly Factor in One Minute

A smirk-heavy mash-up.

Comedy - Which Steven was the ladies man?

I guess this answers *that* question:

Comedy - Patrick Stewart

Sheer class (pilfered from videosift.com)

Re: Death in the Ring

Ah Mike Awsesome - God rest his dead soul. Stupid shitty federations with amateur ring crews.

Incidentally M. Awesome is responsible for adminstering the single most painful looking bump I've seen in all my 48 years of watching wrestling [at 0:35]:



Skeleton on metal on concrete ftw.

Death in the Ring

A fun bit of pain

DEATH!!

Film - New Coens

This looks more up my street, friend-oh.

Comedy - Don't Mention This to Harrison

I like the stoned man's timing:


via videosift.com

Showbiztology - That's gonna be...

.. one creepy school.

Politics - Sweetiegate

Could this be the screwup to bring down Barack? Of course it could!

Music - Neil-o-vision

The BBC asked Neil H. Hannon to write an unofficial Eurovision entry. He does not, O my brothers, disappoint:

Games - The obligatory GTA IV post

Being angry and conservative just doesn't seem like a lot of fun.

Cultures - Drop the baby!

At least Jacko didn't actually do it...

Comedy - Conan's Successor

Is... this charming man...

Science-tology - Just when you thought you were safe in Mewnich

...think again! (I walked past the "exhibition" on saturday, there were strange guys handing out flyers to anybody who'd take them).

Art - Untooned

Now what do you think about that?

Politics - Pres Candidates on WWE Raw

It's a fix. You know Vince deliberately gave the best lines to McCain.

Media - Why the frig not?

It seems that even Radiohead are getting in on the social networking thing.

New Media - David Lynch on the iPhone

TV - Conan on Leno: Awk-ward

After reading this synopsis I'm not sure I can bear to watch the clips...

Eccentricity - How wacko is Jacko?

Decreasingly, but still sufficiently wacko, by all accounts.

Politics - Barack responds to Hillary's Vice Pres Offer

Damn, Obama got sass!

Comedy - Funny, Funny Samberg

What a shame he probably won't get to make another movie.

Media - Could Obama Actually Maybe Even Be the Antichrist?

And this shiz isn't even on Fox News...

Comedy - Kimmel vs. Silverman

and here's the response:

Comedy - Daniel Plainview on SNL

Watch There Will Be Blood, then watch this.

Politics - Huckaboo on SNL

Funny sketch, but isn't he admitting his irrelevancy now?

PS. He's still a dangerous loony.

Theatre - The Space Meets the 'Blum

This looks ace.

Film - The Coens are at it again!

Oh boy oh boy oh boy!

Politics - Mitt's the Pits.

NY - Mob involvement in construction and waste disposal?

Well I never!

Incidentally, while researching for an appropriate picture to go with the above story, I came across this cheeky little number (click to enlarge):

Games - GTA4 updates

The full GTA4 website is now live. I'm gonna have to decide which next-gen console I'm gonna buy soon, ain't I?

Science-tology - More Cruisal Nuttiness

Comedy - Comedic crossovers

Comedy - Arrested News Is Not Really Big News

Exciting, but this is still a ridiculous use of news reporting resources.



Why can't we all be as sensible as Montel (Vontavius) Williams:

Science-tology - Battling the geeks

Nancy Cartwright? Nooo!

Social Experiments - Stopping time

(thanks to guy at work for the link)

"News" - Nice Bit o' Satire

Mysterious Traveler Entrances Town With Utopian Vision Of The Future

Eccentricity - Vintage Mr. Tom Cruise

Aah remember this?



Our first clue that something was not right...

Comedy - Conan vs Colbert

Science-tology - Leaked Mr. Tom Cruise Video

Yes, it's reached the look-and-point stage by now, but really, what would we or the Mew be without our creepiest cult leader stroke hugely bankable superstar? This is his acceptance video for the 2005 Scientology "Freedom Medal of Valor".

There's some fabulous mad-eyed context-free laughter about 4 minutes in.

Stay tuned til the end to see Tom's leather suit, and the phrase "one billion people of earth".

Cone-oh - David Letterman Hands Over To "The New Guy"

From 1993, lads.

Technology - Fun technology fun

Doctorate students in Human-Computer Interaction and lovers of all things cool and computer-interfacy rejoice, because you're in for a treat:

• firstly, a short Guardian video reporting on some exciting new gadgets from the Consumer Electronics Show 2008 in Vegas (fun game controllers! self-driving cars!)

• and here you can find some fun Blue Peter-style videos for you to enjoy, created by the chap who seems to be writing his Doctorate on the Wii.

Great job!

Music - For all you aspiring Leses out there...

... here's an interesting article.

Politics - New Hampshire Primaries

Obnoxious analysis from Eugene Mirman:
(shamelessly pilfered from John Hodgman's blog)

Film - David Cross and the Chipmunks

Here's an interesting Onion AV Club article dissecting the more dubious career choices that David Cross has made recently.

http://www.indie1031.com/user_assets/audio/404779_JJJ121407WalkHardPODCAST.mp3

Very funny podcast above featuring UCB members, SNL cast and the Sex Pistols' own Steve Jones.

Late Night - What's With the Beards, Boys?

Seems like the Writer's Strike has turned some of our returning hosts into charming hoboes:

Music - Radiohead's Scotch_Mist

On New Year's Day, Radiohead broadcast (on the Internets) a concert, pre-recorded in their bedroom, in which they perform all the songs from In Rainbows. 'head-fans, check it out, it's got funny poetry an' shit...

Elections '08 - Jon Steward

Comedy - "Lost your wheel?"

The science is in: there are more male comics than women...

Politics - USA '08

A nice build-up to the elections in Iowa.

Music - Radiohead speak

to the Guardian about In Rainbows.

Politics - Huck n' Chuck

Huckabee's ascent hasn't gone unnoticed over here. I put it largely down to his masterful playing of the media game. I've heard people saying this video alone could win him the Presidency:



His views ARE still loony conservative though. DO NOT BE FOOLED, ironic humour fans!

WWE - Behind the scenes

A piece from the Guardian... Savs, did they give the reporter more access than normal or is this the standard thing?

Music - dear Mules members...

make sure that Ed doesn't see this, otherwise it's off to the unemployment office for you lazy meatbags..

Elections '08 - America flips a coin

I just don't know what to make of Huckabee - a charming Evolution-denier? Waa?

Comedy - More Sein-oh

Why's he gotta act like a jerk all of a sudden?

Interviews - Seinfeld

I surprised - does he really think of himself as an A-lister?

Simon Pegg - Strange choice?

Perhaps not, he's a geek after all..

Comedy - Letterman & P. Hilton

Well she was dumb enough to show up...

TV - Emmys: Outstanding Comedy Writing nomination clips

Interviews - Michael Cera

There is a children's improv now? That's like potential for cruelty squared...

Commerce(?) - Bauer Shills!

YES!

YES!

Music - Subterranean Homesick MEWs

The potential of this is enormous.

Use it for some excellent things, and show us them.

Films - Hating Apatow

What's this guy's problem?

Music - DIY Chartage

Really interesting article by a dude who wrote a song and tried to get it in the charts for as little money as possible, using all the powers of the internets.

Did you know that you can get your songs listed and downloadable on iTunes for only 25 British sheets? I think Children's seminal "Lady" album deserves to be on that database... particularly 'Jake Grab Hold'...

Monkeys - Get your hands off me, you...

dirty ape!

(I wasn't sure whether to go with the Simpsons or with the Colbert reference, but in the end, I felt that the former was more timeless...)

Joy - Thank You, Guitar Centre

...and thank you again to the makers of Dean Guitars for this wonderful promotion:

Society - Miss Teen South Carolina 2007

Ok - I'll give her the benefit of the doubt and put it down to nerves:

Comedy - Branson hates Colbert...?

Most confusing start to a feud I've ever seen...

Mickey M - America Hater or Bad Documentary Maker?

Probably just a bit of a Dean...

Bill Murray - Golfcart Shenanigans

Oh boy, I sure hope this was all in order to prepare for another a complex, emotionally dislocated, man-child role...

"Have a good trip home, a safe trip,"

Dean

When "it seemed possible that Dean could target Houston...teacher-astronaut Barbara Morgan had to skip a conversation with schoolchildren"

Comedy - Best "Walker Texas Ranger" Clip Ever?

Politics - Craziest O'Reilly Moment Yet

He's like a human car-crash... just can't look away...

Media - Jonnie and Steve in court?

Defending Google, no less. Sounds like a bit of a gimmick.

Chuckles - "Who Said It:? Vice President Dick Cheney or Phil Leotardo From The Sopranos?"

1. "Except for the occasional heart attack, I never felt better."

2. "You sound like a damn politician with all these excuses."

3. "What can you do—throw money at the problem?"

4. "He's never won anything, as best I can tell."

5. "Next time, there won't be a next time."

6. "You couldn't fuckin' retire?"

7. "Principle is OK up to a certain point, but principle doesn't do any good if you lose."

8. "First off, it wasn't an offer. It's my position."

9. "Everyone knows that you're not really a man unless you own a gun."

10. "I'll take that Discman and I'll ram it up your box."

11. "You want compromise?"

12. "Go fuck yourself."

Dick Cheney: 1, 2, 4, 7, 9, 12

Phil Leotardo: 3, 5, 6, 8, 10, 11

Games - Wii Fun

This clip is very Conan-esque:

ReligioScience - "Don't Make Me Hug You..."

Dawkins is challenged by one of his own, somewhat fairly, I'd say:



The guy who spoke, Neil DeGrasse Tyson, appears to be quite a legend:

Politics - Score one for John Edwards

Edwards hones in on a criticism that Mickey M made in Sicko: that Hillary is the puppet of corporate lobbyists. See Hillary Squirm.

Politics - More O'Reilly Fun

Art? - David Cross's Tattoos

Some original skin-art, to be sure...
