Kittens vs. Vacuum Cleaner

Kittens vs. Vacuum Cleaner

We have no idea why these kittens are hanging all over this vacuum in the first place. Maybe it sucked up some Tender Vittles. Regardless, they get a rude awakening when they hit the power switch.

Casey Jones The Movie

Casey Jones The Movie

Trailer for Casey Jones, a short film directed by Polaris Banks that creates a more in-depth, yet faithful origin story for the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtle’s vigilante buddy. Watch the full movie here.

Splinter Cell: Lightbulb Assassin

Splinter Cell: Lightbulb Assassin

Freddie Wong only slightly exaggerates the actions Sam Fisher needs to take in order to remain in the cover of darkness. Or maybe the fluorescent tubes are more deadly than the bad guys with guns.

Auroras from Space

Auroras from Space

An extraordinary view of the Northern and Southern Auroras captured from the ISS as it orbits the globe, making Earth look like some far-off alien planet. Another awesome clip here.

The Minigun

The Minigun

Everyone’s favorite gun-toting Russian is back – with a vengeance. He whips out the big guns – literally – firing a 4000 round-per-minute M-134 minigun. Watch him go all Rambo around 2:00.

Past and Future Logos

Past and Future Logos

Stock Logos lines up the past logos of famous companies and then predicts what their future logo might look like, tongue firmly planted in cheek. The “future” Nokia and Gap logos are priceless.

The Darth Knight

The Darth Knight
Bid

Worlds collide in this awesome cosplay mashup between the Dark Knight and the Dark Side of the Force. We like to imagine that Luke Skywalker is wandering around on Tatooine dressed as Robin.

Buttered Popcorn Air Freshener

Buttered Popcorn Air Freshener
Buy

Archie McPhee has a special air freshener for food lovers and cinephiles,  bursting with the yummy scent of fresh buttered popcorn. Needs to be bundled with a softdrink-scented air freshener.

Tom Selleck Mustache Montage

Tom Selleck Mustache Montage

Anyone who thinks Tom Selleck’s mustache is one of the greatest contributions to American television will be thrilled after seeing it in the cinematic world in this amusing montage. (Thanks Jason!)

Impression Inception

Impression Inception

(NSFW: Language) Comedienne Tig Notaro’s stand up on Conan. She starts off slow but eventually gets to her pièce de résistance – an infinite joke. Also, awesome clown horn.

Reconstructing Brain Waves

Reconstructing Brain Waves

Researchers at UC Berkeley recorded brain activity while subjects watched YouTube videos under an fMRI, then reconstructed what they saw using a computer algorithm. Total Recall, here we come.

Cat Crosses Bathtub

Cat Crosses Bathtub

Cats can pull off parkour and even superhero moves. So why is this cat so hesitant to go across a simple bathtub? Because the tub contains cat kryptonite – water. The tension is unbearable.

Chop Cup

Chop Cup

Yes, we’ve all see the old cups-and-ball trick a million times before, but in this particular case we’ll make an exception and watch it again. We assure you this does not end the way you’d expect.

Cookie Monster Cupcake

Cookie Monster Cupcake

Ok, so it’s just a cupcake. But there’s something just so right (and ever-so-slightly mind-bending) about this dessert that’s eating another dessert before your eyes. Plus, Cookie Monster.

The Inevitable Auto-Tune

The Inevitable Auto-Tune

We figured it wouldn’t take long before George Lindell, the Reality Hits You Hard Bro dude would get Songified by the Gregory Brothers. The whole world asked for it, so Foom! here you go.

Channelling Eddie

Channelling Eddie

We were pretty impressed by yesterday’s Freddie Mercury vocalization, but this guy from Santiago, Chile wins the award for the least likely person to pull off a convincing Eddie Vedder.

Operation Smile

Operation Smile

This little girl is rendered stunned and speechless when she sees herself for the first time after her cleft lip was fixed, thanks to the awesome folks at children’s charity Operation Smile.

Where’s Waldo? The Movie

Where’s Waldo? The Movie

This isn’t the first Wally/Waldo fan movie… trailer thing we’ve seen, but while the other one cast him as a hero out for revenge, here he’s just an annoying prick who drives a man insane.

The Beardly

The Beardly

A website dedicated to the greatest of growths. The Beardly uploads pictures of men with majestically maned chins along with snarky advice and funny “beardreavements”. Hairless gonna hate.

Summer Feelings

Summer Feelings

Ahhh. Life on the French and Italian Alps. You know the scenes in movies that show the hero’s perfect life just before things go horribly wrong? This is exactly like that, except nothing goes wrong.

FIFA 12 Demo Bugs

FIFA 12 Demo Bugs

A montage of the wonky physics in the FIFA 12 demo. It kinda makes us wish that the actual game would have an an option to keep it broken so we can do the hilarious kickoff pileup ourselves.

Watermelon Carving

Watermelon Carving

Halloween is just around the corner, so you’re probably thinking about carving some pumpkins. But while Summer is still fresh in our minds, this watermelon seems much more refreshing.

Channelling Freddie

Channelling Freddie

At first, we thought Marc Martel was lip-syncing, but he does the most uncanny impression of Freddie Mercury’s smooth and powerful vocals. Or maybe he’s just a medium for the dead. More here.
