• Video of the Day: Inside the International Space Station

  This video looking at life inside the International Space Station was made well before the station's toilet broke in May and wee particularly enjoyed the dining scene at the end.   Read More...

• Barack Obama's Manbag Could Make the Bad Dressers Bitter

  Donatella Versace has designed her new men's line with one man in mind: Barack Obama. But some people worry the manbag and pastels might turn off blue collar voters. What do you think?   Posted Jun 27 2008, 11:37 AM by Emily Farris with | with no comments Filed under: video, fashion, Barack Obama, presidential candidates, clothes, voters, donatella versace, bitter

• If a Wardrobe Falls on a Stripper and No One is Around To Hear It....

  This video of an earnest stripper (exotic dancer?) had us thinking, "why is it so funny when strippers fall down?" It also had us thinking it might be fake, but either way, it's pretty hilarious — though we hope no amateur strippers were harmed during filming.

• Video of the Day: Do You Really Want to Hurt George?

  Important topics for the U.S. Department of State on Tuesday: Iran and Boy George's Visa. Unfortunately we can't embed the video but you can watch U.S. Department of State Daily Deputy Spokesman Tom Casey comment on the state of the pop star's status, and quip, "Do you really want to hurt him?" We think they do. [Video]  Related: Sloppy Seconds: Why Should The Gays Thank Tila Tequila?

• Good Question: What Were Paul and Julio Doing Down by the School Yard?

  We always wondered exactly what Paul Simon and Julio were doing down by the school yard. Whatever mama saw, it was against the law.

• It's the End of the World As We Know It

  Since freaking out about turning 25 a while back (we know, we know), we may or may not have had a few panic attacks related to death and dying. Normal, right? We mean, we don't want to die. Who does (the chronically ill and suicidal folks aside)? However, we're totally okay with the idea of dying in the apocalypse, because we wouldn't miss out on life. Read More...

• This Video Makes Our Fingernails Sweat

  We're sitting here in 90-something-degree heat wishing our new air conditioner would have been delivered yesterday (indstead of tomorrow) and thinking about how it's too hot to carry the old one up from the basement. So, watching this little girl spin around in the dryer (at, what seems, the behest of her father) makes our fingernails sweat. Seriously, they're the last frontier. We're sweating in places we never thought we could sweat. We just hope they had her on air dry and not permanent press.   Posted Jun 10 2008, 10:34 AM by Emily Farris with | with 1 comment(s) Filed under: video, summer, sweat, bad parents

• Video of the Day: Slip Slidin' Away

  While we'd most definitely pee our pants in this AquaLOOP water slide in Moarvci, Slovenia it would be worth it for the trap door drop and the loop. Plus nobody would notice with all the chlorine.  Posted Jun 06 2008, 12:12 PM by Emily Farris with | with 1 comment(s) Filed under: boobs, video, video of the day, summer, slovenia, water slides

• We Bet You (Like Us) Thought The Pussycat Dolls Couldn't Get Any Worse

  Before you jump, we want you to take a second to think about what could possibly make the Pussycat Dolls worse, and by worse we mean trashier and less talented. Actually, though, after watching that video we think they're all on par. (Did they really say "I want to have boobies?") Read More...

• Video of the Day: Yes, Jon Lajoie, We Will Totally Show You Our Genitals

  We'd do pretty much anything this guy asked us to do. Including let him put his penis in our college degree. We could probably rig something. Seriously. (Call us!) Posted Jun 02 2008, 12:12 PM by Emily Farris with | with no comments Filed under: video, video of the day, genitals, jon lajoie

• Tandi Iman Dupree is Our Hero

  We love talent shows. In fact, we're organizing one in our neighborhood for this fall. So we were a little disappointed to learn that this clip is not from a talent show but from the Miss Black America pageant in 2001. And while we don't care much for pageants, we hope she won this one if for nothing else but her entrance at 00:27.

• Video of the Day: Erotic Exercises

  This appears to be from some European Candid Camera-type show. It's ridiculous, but we've watched it about five times now just for the laugh track and music.

• Video of the Day: Sex in Video Games

  Via 61 FRAMES PER SECOND: I’m pretty confident that panties were not thrown at Mr. Floyd when he presented this video in his Media Theory class at Savannah College of Art and Design. You can just tell he's no Prince of Love. Passing judgment on relative sexiness aside, Mr. Floyd’s put together an accessible history, analysis, and compelling argument on the future of sex in videogames. The man makes a good point when he says that mature treatments of sexuality must come from game designers themselves. But, truthfully, the people who play games have as much responsibility as designers in introducing thoughtful sexual themes into games. Read more...

• Video of the Day: Leave John McCain Alone

  We can rattle off all kinds of reasons we believe John McCain shouldn't be president, but we're kind-of tired of the age discrimination (though we did get a chuckle out of Top 10 Things Younger Than John McCain — nylons, really?). That said, we wouldn't be the serious investigative reporters you know us to be without reposting this 2000 interview clip that someone else found and posted on YouTube of McCain insinuating that by 2008 he should be shuffling off to the nursing home and not the White House.   Posted May 27 2008, 12:12 PM by Emily Farris with | with no comments Filed under: video, video of the day, john McCain, President, old men

• Video of the Day: What To Do With All Those Unused Condoms

  If you're anything like us you probably — sadly — have some unused condoms lying around. If you're anything like us you're probably also a little clumsy and spend much of your life in a bandage of some kind. If you're really like us, you have unused condoms lying around, get hurt a lot and hate seeing things go to waste. So, if you're like us you will find this video quite informative and useful.  Posted May 21 2008, 05:54 PM by Emily Farris with | with 1 comment(s) Filed under: video, video of the day, condoms, scanner emily is clumsy, clumsy

• What's More Distracting Than a Pink Elephant in the Room? A Flying Penis in the Room, That's What.

  We have no idea what the man was saying before the flying penis entered the room, even though we took two years of Russian in high school. For all we know he could be introducing the flying penis. But we somehow doubt it. Video after the jump. Read More... Posted May 20 2008, 09:24 AM by Emily Farris with | with 2 comment(s) Filed under: video, penis, russia, flying penis

• Baby Wee Wee's Wee Pee Erection

  (Forgive us if you've seen this before, it's rather old. But it's too good — or maybe just too creepy — not to share) When we first started watching this commercial, we thought it was like all the doll ads we saw as kids. We had the dolls that would "pee" the water that you "fed" them if you squeezed them hard enough. We did not, however, have a baby doll with a little baby ween that moved up and down and squirted pee high up into the air, or into this poor father's face, as it were. Click through for some stills of the potty trained Baby Wee Wee. Read More...

• Video of the Day: Dorothy is Not a Virgin Anymore

  We've received a few emails about the video "The Wizard of Ass: Dorothy is Not a Virgin Anymore." We were a little confused by it, until our dumbasses finally figured out that it is a fictional promo for Chuck Palahniuk's (Fight Club, Choke) fictional new book Snuff, about fictional porn star Cassie Wright (the "star" of "Wizard of Ass.").

• Some Facts About Jenna Bush's Wedding Set to the Tune of NKOTB

  The Associated Press has all the details of Jenna Bush's weekend nuptials, "an upbeat moment of her father's two-term presidency, which has been beset by terrorism, war and the current limp economy." Keeping with that upbeat theme, and considering that we're the same age as Jenna, we thought she might appreciate us setting a few of our favorite Jenna Bush wedding facts to the tune of New Kids on the Block's "Step by Step." After the jump: fifteen bridesmaids, political incest and corn as high as your thighs. Read More...

• Watching Too Much Porn? This Will Set You Right

  If they ran this three-minute disclaimer before every porno we ever watched, we'd definitely have healthier sex lives... and never want to actually watch porn. It's the video equivalent of a tub full of ice water, of hearing a twig snap in half-- in other words, the ultimate boner killer. NSFW, although the boring camera setup certainly is. We kept expecting this Gennifer Flowers wannabe to jump on the desk and reveal her sexy stockings. We're guessing this could be why we didn't do so well in sex ed class... Read More...

• Girl Crush of the Day: Leslie Hall

  If Paris Hilton can search for a new BFF on national televison, we can do it on The Internets, right? Well, we already did, and we found her. We heard about Leslie Hall, the rapper with a fondness for spandex, sparkles and sweaters, on NPR a few months ago and have seen her around, but for some reason we never made it to her website. But now that we've seen her on BoingBoingTV we're pretty sure she needs to be our best friend starting right this minute. Read More...

• The Montana Meth Project Scares Us Straight

  For reasons we're not yet ready to disclose to the world at large, we've been doing quite a bit of research on Crystal Meth lately. A friend told us about the Montana Meth Project—an ad campaign aimed at keeping kids off the stuff—and we think it's a little more effective than "This is your brain on drugs" or "I Iearned it from watching you, Dad!"
