What if...?

Ok, so when I'm using my computer, I'm a Windows guy. I know, there are better alternatives out there (Apple, Linux, abstinence), but after being raised in a Windows environment, I just don't have the time or energy to re-educate myself on a completely different platform. That being said, I AM a sucker for Apple's gimmicks, gadgets, and simplistic design. That's where Microsoft falls short... They try, and they try, but they just can't seem to pull it off...

What if Microsoft were to redesign the iPod packaging? Check out this cool little video to see:

It's Peanut Butter Federline!

Any of you loyal readers know I have many obsessions, of which two are:

Fucking classic!

Thank you! Thank you! THANK YOU!

The Ketchup Effect

I know, I know... I've been slacking... But I do have a good excuse!

I was out of town this weekend (click here to see the pictures), celebrating the housewarming of Irish and G.Med... Then, yesterday, Comcast screwed me, yet again, and left me without my cable modem service (we'll save that whole thing for another day)...

Today, I return! And, it's with good shit!

I know I heard this one as a joke when I was younger, but seeing it as a video made me cry both tears of pain and tears of laughter... Check out The Ketchup Effect:

"Damme," That's Bad!

Damn! I thought I was bad...

Little Michael

Holy slacker, right?! I know - I've been a bit of an absentee blogger over the last week, but I'm gonna do my best to remedy that situation. I hope to have a bunch of stuff up before I leave for O-Town this weekend.

In the meantime, I figured this little bit of fun below would be a good start to wedging my way back into your hearts. Normally I'd come up with some witty quote or anecdote about why I think it's funny, but this one pretty much speaks for itself. Enjoy:

Mr. & Mrs. JT

I know - I've been slacking... More posts coing in the next day or so...

On a quick note - I just wanted to wish my most heartfelt congratulations and best wishes to the new Mr. & Mrs. JT (Jared & Jennifer Tacher) on their wedding last night... There was much love in the air, and the newly minted bride and groom couldn't have looked happier! In fact, click here for all of my pictures from the wedding:



I'll be back later with more fun!

The Empire Brokeback

Who would have thought that a movie about two gay cowboys would spark so many parodies? (And they're good ones, too!)

This one, by far, should hit the biggest part of my crowd... Please enjoy

Splat!

Behold! The video revolution has begun! (Or at least drifted over this way...)

What better way to start embedded video on LBCapt.com/FluxW.com than to laugh at the expense of some poor dude with no coordination, and who just happens to be "festively-plump"? Enjoy:

Boo!

Everybody loves a good laugh. Some will take it by any means necessary - like at the expense of a poor child.

Today, I am one of those people. This is just that damn good:

Mitch in iTunes

Mitch Hedberg hasn't gotten a lot of respect lately. That's why it made me happier than shit to see that while introducing their new Comedy genre subpage, Apple's iTunes has decided to make Mitch the centerpiece of their top banner:

If I...

Well, it's Valentine's Day again... Bleh!

If anything, I did get to start my day with not just a laugh, but an honest-to-goodness GUFFAW! What brought this burst out from my soul? Check out this quick little ditty, titled "Love Song," from Stephen Lynch's new album:

"Yoda One For Me"

Speaking of V-Day, I stumbled across another collection of faux Valentine's Day cards, and while I'm still a bigger fan of the Law & Order: SVU cards, you MUST these check out - especially if you are one with The Force:



And on a quick Star Wars based tangent - It's been a while since I posted a classic T-Shirt that made me laugh out loud... It's time to break that drought:

Gary Troup

I can't believe I'm giving Spammy credit twice in one week... What is this world coming to?

I'll make this one short and sweet... For all of the LOST-philes out there, did anybody notice the following during this past week's episode?:

  • The waitress serving Sawyer and Gordy in the diner was Kate's Mom.

  • The manuscript being read by Hurly was titled "Bad Twin," and was written by Gary Troup.

Who the hell is Gary Troup, you ask? Why should I care?

Gary Troup was supposedly a passenger on Flight 815. But here's the kicker:


(Credit to Spammy for that one...)

"Bad Twin" is actually being published in May as a tie-in to the end of the second season of this phenomenal show... Click below to view the Amazon.com pre-order page for it:

Drinking On The Job

So, I was browsing the web yesterday, and noticed that Dave's Daily has bestowed onto us "14 Reasons To Allow Drinking On The Job." I just have two questions:

1) Do we really need 14? (Yeah - why not?)
2) Why didn't I think of this first?

At any rate, please click below to enjoy Dave's list. I think you'll find it accurate, inspiring, and thirst inducing:



A toast to the list! Oogy WaWa!

"Unnecessary Censorship"

I actually stayed up after the Super Bowl (yes, admittedly to watch Grey's Anatomy - "Code Black!"), and caught my first episode in a long time of Jimmy Kimmel Live. In doing so, I thankfully was able to catch a part of Jimmy's show that will now rival Jay Leno's "Headlines" and Conan O'Brien's "Secrets" in my late-night viewing - "This Week In Unnecessary Censorship." Brilliant!

Brought to us by ABC, The FCC, and, of course, Jimmy Kimmel - please bask in the glow of this special Super Bowl edition of "This Week In Unnecessary Censorship":



-El Capitan

Tidy up.

My cousin Matt sent me this one - been meaning to put it up for about a week now...

I'm pretty sure this ad for Ikea never aired on televesion - at least not on this side of the pond...

Just remember to always pick up your toys...

Yet another quick fix for a good laugh when you're having a lousy day - or if you just needed a laugh in general...

Ginger Kids Redux

5) If a Ginger Kid bites me what should I do?

If you have been bitten by a Ginger Kid immediately wash the wound with soap and water. If you have alcohol or peroxide apply it to the wound. Then call your local poison control for further assistance.

As first seen on South Park (and on FluxW.com), click below to visit GingerKids.org to learn more about the plight of these poor youngsters and their day-to-day struggles:



Look! Even BRR did everything he could to get rid of his Gingervitis:


(Before & After)

Every day 1337 children are born with gingervitis in the United States alone. Not only do these special people have to struggle with a life long disease in which there is no known cure, they are often the target of ridicule and jokes. The only way we will ever find a cure is if we work together.

Somebody's Hungry

While it is cuter than shit, and funny as all hell, this is certainly NSFW (a.k.a. Not Safe For Work)...

Kill Bill vs. Super Mario

When I was working on my Four Things post, I SO should have put Kill Bill, Volume 1 as a movie I could watch over, and over, and OVER again...

Some genius has taken the fight between The Bride (a.k.a. Black Mamba - a.k.a. Beatrix Kiddo - a.k.a. Mommy) and Go Go Yubari, and added in sounds from the various Super Mario titles from the old school Nintendo days...

As always, click on the image below to bask in the sheer intensity and hilarity!

Oh, those commercials...

Well, the Big Game is in the books, and the Steelers have claimed their FIFTH NFL Championship. Congrats to them, as well as Big Irish and Master Ei El (he's notable!), both of whom are big Steeler fans!

Looks like ESPN has saved me the hassle, and posted ALL of the Super Bowl XL commercials in one place...!

My personal favorites:

  • Stick - FedEx (Caveman vs. Dinosaur - NOT on ESPN)

  • Superfan - Bud-Light (The streaking sheep - bloody hilarious!)

  • Slainte - Anheuser-Busch (All the different ways to say "Cheers" - Reminded me of Tripp's old wallpaper... Oogy WaWa!)

  • Druid - Emerald Nuts (Somebody here said it - So strange that it was hilarious!)

Super Bowl XL

It's officially Super Bowl Sunday, and what better way to kick off the big day than with a list of the "Top 25 annoying Super Bowl party guests":

8. Guy in the Dan Marino jersey.
There is always a guy in a Dan Marino jersey.

Eight? Really? Without hesitation, this would be my #1... Let's get one thing straight - Dan Marino is a cock (a rude one, at that). Argue all you want, but you'll never convince me otherwise. Even most Dolfans (at least those who have met him in an everyday situation) can agree with that...

After you're done laughing your ass off at that one, take a gander over to SuperBowl.com, and read up on today's Xtra Large matchup:



As for those commercials... (I have a feeling there's gonna be lots of content for days to come.)
