Drummer on high-speed

From Time Warp. I miss that show. Also this guy is sick fast.

One of my favorite INXS songs covered by Beck and Annie from St. Vincent

Turdbusters

This 100% legit and real commercial is from the town i grew up in. Stay classy guys.

Super Delicious Ingredient Force

Holy crap. For advertainment, this is awesome!

Debtris

A well done info-graphic about the size and scale of our worldwide spending.

Jellyfish – The MTV theme

Heard this the other day and it brought back major flashbacks. I remember watching MTV at the neighbor’s house when i would visit my grandparents LONG before I had cable of my own. They had one of those big click-button boxes for changing the channels. Thanks to Jason for pointing me to the band responsible for this piece of television history.

Polarbears jack up the science equipment

I like that blizzard cam runs away like a little bitch and also the disappointed face on the polar bear when he crushes snowball cam. awwww.

Matt Jaffe – Don’t Worry About the Government (Talking Heads Cover).

I don’t know how old this kid is, but he’s rocking this song and bringing a little something of his own to the mix too. Nice work and a solid cover!

Siskel and Ebert review MST3K

They don’t seem to get it.

Ben and Laura on Dr. Katz

My mind was blown recently when I discovered that Ben from Dr. Katz was H. Jon Benjamin and Laura was Laura Silverman. They were my two favorites on the show. When is Netflix streaming going to pick these up.

Extreme Pog Flashback!

I will admit, my post-college roommates and I played pogs as a drinking game way back in the day. We were never as lame as these folks though.
