French Bulldog and Man in Underwear Dance to T.I.

french bulldog danceThis is totally one of those videos where you go, "That guy is so awesome! He must be such a fun time!" until you're actually dating him and realize that he's been in that same pair of underwear for four days and this dance routine is what he does when he wants you to make him some Totino's Pizza Rolls.

 

Blind Film Critic Reviews Scream 4

blind film critic reviews scream 4So, Scream 4 is apparently a thing, and it's getting lots of mixed reviews (a 53 on Metacritic and a 57% on Rotten Tomatoes). You should ignore all that, though, because those reviewers saw the movie. Instead, you should check out this Scream 4 review by blind movie critic Tommy Edison, who just heard the movie.

Based on the lack of dialogue and the huge amounts of screaming and dramatic music, Tommy concludes that the film fell short in the character development department. The female characters, in particular, basically just complain and scream. Tommy hopes they looked good, at least! Sure, there's some comedy to this review, but it's also amazing how much you can learn about a movie without the visuals.

Dear filmmakers, if there's not enough dialogue to let a blind critic follow the plot, you might be leaning a bit too heavily on images.

 

Baby Penguin Gets Tickled, Has Best Possible Reaction (The One)

baby penguin gets tickledThis video of the Cincinnati Zoo's Cookie the penguin may be a year old, but it's getting some viral traction now, and understandably so.

The only thing cuter than a baby penguin walking around your office wearing teenie booties on his feet is a ticklish baby penguin doing the same thing.

They've disabled embedding on the full-length original, but I've hunted down the highlights for you guys to check out.

 

Cute Baby Raccoon Plays in the Bathtub

cute baby raccoon plays in bathtubRaccoons can be mischievous little creatures when they're knocking over trash cans and destroying your kitchen, but they sure are cute when they take a bath. This little guy's name is Tyrone Biggums and he is grabbing at the water coming out of this faucet like he thinks he is somehow going to pluck it out of thin air.

Tyrone is cooler than most of his fellow adorable raccoons because he has his very own Myspace page. So not only is he hip in the tub, he is hip on the web as well (if this were 2007, anyway).

Ah, I don't care if raccoons make horrible pets. I want one!

 

Encyclopedia Dramatica Goes Clean, Becomes OhInternet

encyclopedia dramatica becomes oh internetEncyclopedia Dramatica has long been the internet's source for finding out what's happening on 4Chan's /b/ without actually reading /b/, but it looks like this often-vulgar compendium of weird internet culture has been shut down and cleaned up. The new, sanitized wiki, OhInternet, scrubs out the racism and gross-out content ... it's like Know Your Meme, but entirely user-editable.

We love Know Your Meme and its team of meme experts, but Encyclopedia Dramatica always covered the unpalatable stuff that KYM won't touch. That's not to endorse personal drama, immature flame wars, bizarre porn or racial stereotypes at all, just to say that they're undoubtedly part of the internet, and ED was one heck of a fascinating study of that part of online culture.

OhInternet will never fully take ED's place, but it is run by one of ED's original founders, Girlvinyl, who has high hopes that the new, clean site will take off and grow its own community.

Amazing Beatboxing Cellist Covers Julie-o by Mark Summer

beatboxing and cello at the same timeI cannot play the cello and I cannot beatbox (although I have been known to try at some parties). The guy in this video, on the other hand, does both of these things very well ... at the same time. He is covering Mark Summer's wonderful piece, Julie-o, with a fresh twist.

I was pretty impressed within the first minute of this guy simply playing but then he starts to beatbox along with the song and I was absolutely blown away! This guy multitasks better than I handle single tasks. If I owned a cello I would probably bury it in my backyard after watching this video.

Cute Kittens Playing With Shadow on the Wall

If you need a cute kitten video to cheer you up (and I am sure that you do with the last day to do your taxes fast approaching), here is a video of three cute little kittens trying to play with a shadow on the wall. It kind of reminds me of the way cats can't help but chase laser pointers. You're never gonna catch that shadow, little kittens! But you should keep trying because it is completely adorable!

 

BBC Human Planet Parody - 'The Douche' (The One)

the douche bbc human planetEvery episode BBC's Human Planet takes an in-depth look at how humans have evolved over thousands of years in order to inhabit Earth, but comedy group Random at Best noticed one topic they've neglected to cover: the douchebag.

So you could tune in to the real Human Planet and learn about things like organ systems and environmental issues, or you could just watch this parody and gain a deeper understanding for hair gel and fist-pumping. It's your call.

 

Girl Makes Incredibly Realistic Animal Sounds

mel the girl who makes realistic animal soundsMel has a unique talent for making realistic animal sounds using her voice. She has a decent amount of variety in her act, too. She actually mimics a kookaburra. I didn't even know what kookaburra was until I looked it up, and this girl does a pretty spot on impression of one. She's like the Michael Winslow of animal sounds.

While studying in New Zealand, Mel's friends discovered her sound-making abilities and decided to make this video and put it on Youtube. It is pretty impressive!

 

Amy from Karmin Gets Our Vote for Best Lil Wayne Impression by a White Girl

karmin covers chris brown lil wayne busta rhymes... or maybe by anyone. In Karmin's cover of Look at Me Now, by Chris Brown feat. Lil Wayne and Busta Rhymes, Amy sings and raps all the parts with impressive vocal dexterity. Pay special attention to her flow on the super-fast Busta Rhymes part in the middle of the song, because she totally kills it. George Watsky and Mac Lethal had better watch their backs -- we've got a new fast rapper in internet-town.

 

The Cast of Doctor Who Reads Celebrity Tweets in American Accents

doctor who cast matt smith reading tweets in american accentOur pals at Buzzfeed managed to get a sit-down with the cast of Doctor Who, and they did what any respectable American would do -- got Matt Smith, Karen Gillan and Arthur Darvill to read asinine celebrity tweets in the best American accents they could muster. If you've ever wanted to hear The Doctor struggling with a Sarah Palin quote, this is probably your only chance. The highlight of the whole thing might be The Doctor's lovely companion misprouncing "Ghostface Killah." Instant classic!
