Warm me up!
« on: March 17, 2009, 03:21:30 PM »
Before we record each episode of Brilliant Gameologists, we like to watch a funny video or read something funny-- we want to get in the humor mood and align ourselves and just get ready to hit record.

I use the boards a lot for inspiration, but I end up spending so much time searching that it defeats the purpose of something funny.

So!  Help!

Post something that we'd find funny-- something we can look at online.  A song, a youtube video, a college humor skit, a failblog post, a funny ebay ad... anything!

We won't look at it until we sit down to record.  If your post makes us laugh, we'll give you a nod and a thanks on the show and in the shownotes!

These CAN be things cross posted from the "fun on the interwebs" thread or any other thread on these boards, other boards, the latest viral thang-- just give us 5 minutes of pure entertainment!

Did you catch this video yet?  Not the absolute best quality video, but I thought it was freakin funny as hell.

The impression I got from the title was a wrong one. Definitely and unfortunately.

I think we may have had the same thought...  I too was disappointed by what this thread was about. 

But, nonetheless, I must say that I am quite partial to all of It'sJustSomeRandomGuy's videos. The newest one, with wolverine and Doctor Manhattan is particularly funny.

I was thinking she wanted a pair of woollen stockings, you pervert.

I think you are lying. I think you are lying, and that you should admit that you are lying. This is the Internet. No one on the Internet cares about woolen stockings.  They want filthy, steamy, raunchy sex. Preferably with multiple females. At once.    :P

And I think you should stop lying that I lie. I call shenanigans on your shenanigans!

You know, we could go back and forth like this forever. You and me, locked in an epic battle for all time, neither one ever giving in to the other.  Or, you could just admit that you were lying. I, personally, would prefer the latter, but, either one works for me.

Also, Bowen, I'd seen the third bit of that video before, but I never knew it was part of a larger video. (I refrained from saying anything about what's in the video for Meg's sake.)

I'll continue mentally disagreeing with you, but I stop spamming the thread.

The point of this is to find links quickly, so no banter.  Spam somewhere else please.

On topic, I recommend George Carlin. He has numerous clips on YouTube and you could theoretically find anything to suit your mood. This requires you to like bashing stuff and/or analysing language though. If either of those are to your liking, I really recommend you to look Carlin's take on the Ten Commandments, airline announcements and whatnot. Enough material for dozens of podcasts.

Sorry, Meg, I was just joking around... :embarrassed
In atonement, here's a video I found on StumbleUpon the other day. http://www.todaysbigfail.com/view/20090304

Um, we hail to Carlin as our patron saint of the podcast and have dedicated a few of our shows to him.

But this brings up another point-- actual links only please!  Again, the idea is to be quick!  I want to click, laugh, hit record!

In case you ever do a Star Wars related episode, the Robot Chicken Star Wars sketch of the Emperor on the phone with Darth Vader is a classic. 2 minutes 27 seconds.

Thank you!  These were the first two we clicked on when we recorded last night and you each are getting a mention in the show- awesome tastic!

Zero Punctuation! reviews Left 4 Dead

Zero Punctuation! has got to be the most amusing review site I've ever seen.  If nothing else, listening to the endless variety of Anglo/Aussie profanity-laced insults always leaves me chuckling with insane hellish glee.
