Hard to believe, but August is just about over—which means that Labor Day is around the corner, and all over the country, people are zipping up their backpacks, heading back to campus, and in some cases slithering their nubile 18-year-old bodies into Catholic school knee socks and short skirts. But we digress! Since school is rearing its ugly head (not for us—we dropped out graduated with honors some time ago), we figured we’d make it easier by reminding you how amazing education could be. Yes, we counted down the 50 best (to us, at least—no Dead Poets Society schmaltz around these parts) school movies in existence. What’s #1? We can’t tell you, you’ll just have to read on and find out…
There aren’t many 7′1″, 325 lb. behemoths you can laugh at when they’re in a fighting mood, but NBA funnyman Shaquille O’Neal is one of them. This past weekend, footage of the NBA big man fighting 5′10″, 154-lb. boxer Oscar De La Hoya for his Shaq Vs. television show leaked, and it’s hilarious (one of them is really, really big and the other one’s kinda normal size, you see, and that equals laughter). We doubt that the Golden Boy checked out our posts on Shaq’s greatest emasculations and scariest moments, or he would never have put his pretty little face in such danger. And that’s fine by us, ’cause it’s one more big laugh for us. Now check out the rest of Shaq’s funniest moments.
We don’t normally endorse sexist stereotypes about women, but there’s one that’s actually kinda true: broads aren’t funny. A chick who can genuinely make you laugh is harder to find than Joe Jackson’s love for his kids, but that doesn’t mean they don’t exist. Case in point: we recently caught a screening of Funny People (in theaters this weekend), and a young actress named Aubrey Plaza caught our eye in her hilarious role as an awkward/sarcastic stand-up comedian who Seth Rogen has a crush on.
With her combination of comeliness and funnilyness, we think Ms. Plaza (who also stars in Parks & Recreation) is that next chick. Check out her competition in a countdown of The 10 Hottest Girls Who Are Actually Funny…
Our talented homies over at SWAY Studios (who did the digital effects on our groundbreaking April/May shoot) put together this video of cover subject Kanye West. The video features a digitally-enhanced Mr. West dancing like a crazy person to “Puttin’ On The Ritz.” We’re not sure how Kanye would feel about the computer-generated dance moves, but we had a good laugh. After the jump, watch a bonus video that features Sway’s take on “The Making Of The Kanye West Complex Cover”…
When news reporters hit the streets for live reports, they’re always vulnerable to public harassment. Cameras make people do stupid shit, and when you add alcohol and adrenaline to the mix, the stage is set for all kinds of on-air fuckery. The recent Spanish news clip of a soccer fan laying imaginary pipe to an unwitting reporter is just the latest example of a civilian manipulating a live news camera.
Whether out of anger, perversion or drunkness (or all three), on-air reporter attacks are always funny. That’s why we’re bringing you the best news-crashing moments on live television…
Last night, local NBC New York news anchor Sue Simmons said “What the fuck are you doin’?” live on air during a promo for the 11 O'clock News (Thanks to ANIMAL for the heads up). We were shocked, but not that shocked, really'this is only the latest in a long string of embarassing on-air mistakes that prove our news purveyors could use a little extra media training. Whether they're having tourettes-like outbursts or just straight flubbing their words, it's fun to watch professionals screw up. Always looking to laugh at others’ misfortunes, we scoured YouTube for some past LOL-worthy blunders made by newscasters. After the jump, watch last night’s fuck up and five other newsroom classics.
