The original's called Ridin'. It's by a rapper named...

Anyway: The video for White and Nerdy. It's based on a song I've never heard, but it's still awesome even without the reference stored away in my brain. I love the gangsters panicking and slamming their car door locks when he approaches. Keep a lookout for Donny Osmond and Seth Green cameos, and if you know where I can get a "Carl Sagan is my Homeboy" tee, SAY SOMETHING, DAMN IT. |
That was pretty damned hilarious. The other couple songs from his new album I've heard were pretty weak though in my opinion. _________________ Towards thee I roll, thou all-destroying but unconquering whale; to the last I grapple with thee; from hell's heart I stab at thee; for hate's sake I spit my last breath at thee.

I don't think I've ever seen him that clearly riled. His focus was impressive and his knowledge of figures amazing. I knew he was smart, but I've seen precious little beneath the rhetoric. |

OK, so it was definitely a little presumptuous of me to assume that I couldn't be backhanded by good flash animation. I mean, sure, good new flash appears on small sites all over the web these days; nobody can see it all. However, until yesterday I assumed I had seen most if not all of the large, high quality flash sites. Turns out I was wrong. I definitely missed at least one.

This is the most boring topic for a video. Sweet Jesus. Keep in mind this is the 8th video this dude has made on the subject of tee shirts.

German DEVO-esque band's music video. In English.. These guys are amazing. _________________ "You may not be aware of it, but we are in the middle of World War III.

See fruit flies fighting!
On their foodstuff,
Shoving and biting
And other rude stuff,
Oh-oh-o-o-o-oh!
At the late night sumo fruit fly picture show! |

Okay, this... it's free love 1971 rolling-on-the-grass bizarrely costumed... protein synthesis. I cannot describe it any better.
Wow.
The 30S ribosome is here represented by a writhing mass of cavorting students, beckoning a long chain of their cohorts, who have balloons tied to their heads. That, of course, represents DNA bases. |

Some Russian guy participating in my absolute favorite fucking sport, le parkour. I especially like his lines on the monkeybars and through the abandoned warehouse.
