Some of these are comical, but as always, I make no promises that you will actually enjoy this.

The funniest knock-knock joke I've heard in a long time

I actually loled. I apologize. (Video: 56k a-okay.)

Records? Video games?

Why not both?

Living in the Police State

This is what I've been saying for years. (Video: 56k, worth it.)

Graffiti of my hero

The *other* JC - Johnny Cash.

Downtown Gary, IN

A modern-day ghost town. Why can't Michael Jackson come by with a few million dollars and renovate this place?

The solution to the whole music piracy problem.

Such an elegant solution; I feel like a weight has been lifted off my shoulders.

My new hero

13 year-old says first words in 10 years.

We forgot

The terrorists win.

Fia: we're in trouble

It turns out eating vegetables is murder, too...

Winners and losers

I wish this wasn't true.

Cheap gas

Thanks to LifeHacker and Google. Totally irrelevant to me, but tell me if it works...

Do you have $5?

Good causes that could use a few dollars (really, two decent causes, and one that is really good):

• McSweeney's needs some money, so they're having a sale


• Jesus Radicals' seminar is upcoming; they'll probably cover enough cash, so don't feel bad if you don't give.


• Help save Darfur. Seriously, this will be our generation's Holocaust.

Not as amusing as some posts, but something that was on my mind. Help if you've got a few spare bucks.

If you like Hebrew typography and found art

You'll love this.

St. John Coltrane?

Who knew?

Real-life Mario Kart

What dunces. (Video: 56k, watch)

Homemade music videos

Are almost always awful: 84% of them are anime, 7% are home movies, and the rest are tolerable. Here are two that are enjoyable and, as an added bonus, typographical:

• A misheard lyrics version of Pearl Jam's Yellow Ledbetter. Usually, these aren't as funny as the makers think, but this is enjoyable (to me.)


• A typographical version of Obadiah Parker's cover of Outkast's Hey Ya!, a song that should probably have a seven-year moratorium, but nonetheless is a fun cover. I can't tell if it's ironic or not - any thoughts?

Morocco has two options

1. Stop throwing hundreds of millions of dollars down the drain occupying others' land.


2. Keep their own citizens from being flushed down the drain themselves.

Fia - meat you can eat!

I may start eating meat again... in 15 years when they perfect it.
