Vidiots Link Fodder
 Oh for the LOVE OF PETE, would people STOP RICK-ROLLING ME, otherwise known as "Hilarious Muppets Bloopers." Still, that was an inventive one. And Bubbles still doesn't know what RickRolling is nor who Rick Astely is.

 Wow this is one cool robot. It can walk in snow and recover from falls. But it freaks me out a little as it looks like two guys facing each other carrying a heavy load.

 OK, the internet is officially weird. Magibon is a YouTube channel where this (21 year old) cutie stares at you bashfully. Is it just everyday pervie or some weird japanese thing? A little of column A and a little of column B, as my new favourite saying goes.

 LMAO. I couldn't stop snickering at this video of Team Fortress 2 griefing, as in being a pain in the ass while playing.

 OMG !! I love the lil red robot as he dances his way to victory !! Last video, FYI.

 This is one of those times where a Canadian posts about how dumb an American is and shakes his head. Yeah she is pretty much dumber than a 5th grader. No wonder this category is called Vidiots.
 Everyone is saying this Exoskeleton is either terminator or master chief but I cannot help but think about Ripley in Aliens. I understand that supplying it to the military gets the company more money but imagine what this could do for the warehousing and construction industry.

 "we do what we must, because we can. for the good of all us, except the ones who are dead." Arrrgh, I am humming the end credits song from a video game I haven't even played... yet.

 Now, is this live performance of Tank! , a theme from the classic anime Cowboy Bebop good for it's music or good for it's reference? I do think it would go over well in Vegas.

 After watching this video of Keepon, the robot that not only dances but also reacts to voice & eye-contact, I can imagine a group of those creepy dancing Santas getting even more creepy.

 It will force me to turn in my geek creds if I don't comment on Dungeons & Dragons 4th Edition but really all I've got to say is, "And you expected otherwise???" At least the video is pretty irreverant. P.S. As they abandoned the paper magazines of Dungeon and Dragon, the last scene on the video suggests they might abandon D&D hardcovers. There is a disturbance in the Force, to mix geek canon.

 Marmy !! You like Dick. No not THAT kind of Dick, the undead Richard kind, but he is a dick too. And you like Disney classic animations. So, you will love this:

 Bwah hah hah hah hah !! It's a A global warning about jealous computers. I love the dorm room vid with the LT attacking her leg, especially the GRAHHHH sound it makes as it jumps.

 Hee !! Before I played my first MMO, I feared to try because I thought I might end up like the bunch in The Guild. Luckily, though I did play a lot, I never did truly become addicted. In fact, I got so bored with WoW that I should get around to cancelling the account.

 I am sorry but this latest a-lister meme is something that makes me giggle out loud and have coworkers ask about the smirk on my face. Maybe if I had a Faceball, they would know. Also see the intro.

 OK, this almost made giggle out loud. It's an unaired Mythbusters episode called Do Pretty Girls Fart ? Yes, yes they do.

 If I could get Tigger to not run in sheer terror from the sound of the vacuum, this would be a good way to keep her constant shedding hair to a minimum When I mean constant, I mean constant. You could brush her for an hour every day and still be able to get a Sobeys bag full of loose hair from her each day.

 LMAO. I can imagine myself watching repeats of this Law and Order Special Letters Unit, while eating supper. It's not like anyone actually watches first run L&O. Heh. "Yeah but who listens to a talking piece of poultry." And the Munch Muppet is classic. ( thx Martine, that was priceless)

 I don't know what I like more, Heather's Nooooodly Arms or Aaron's bunny ears.

 Whaa-hoo. It's not Halo 3, it's Haloid, a homemade (not to belittle it) video of Master Chief vs Another Game Icon. It also has anime lesbian overtones (grindy grindy grindy) and just for nood, some choreo.

 Two things. They are not not wearing their blue helmets. And, the chicken on the right is named Romeo; he's a Canadian chicken.

 Meh. You can watch someone pull noodles live at the Pacific Mall. And they are pretty damn tasty to boot.

 You know, there are probably a few execs at america's "clean tv networks" that are actually hoping this 300 - PG Version will be produced.

 OK, the concept started as teenage girls with webcams sharing their daily life, mutated into kiddie-porn-esque sites dedicated to men my age sending them gifts in return for "more intimate" access and now has spawned a fictional collection of videos referred to as lonelygirl15. I think this would have been more fun as a massive campaign for a movie.

 Yeah, you too can get a body (looks down at expanding belly) like a full-on Spartan. The video shows the cast of 300 working out in a way that few gyms could do for you. I hate gyms and the idea of organized exercising but that looked kinda fun.

 OK, who told them you were allowed to have fun at work?!?!?!

 Its a long download but it is worth it especially if you like giant robots.

 I realize this is a viral marketing (saying the phrase makes me wanna gag these days) campaign for sneakers but I still got a kick out of human skateboarding.

 Call me a dolt but I didn't think they would have regional Mac ads. The british Mac doesn't seem as smarmy as the US one. We should do a Canadian version with Joey DeVilla and that guy from Dotto's Cafe.

 Uhhh... ow.

 Watching Heroes last week I crooked my head and said, "Is that Christopher Eccleston?" Marmy perked up and sat down. I think she is now going to watch the show with me. But did you know why he really didn't stay with Doctor Who ?

 ZOMG (pronounced, as if it's supposed to be said out loud, Zoh Mug Gawd) it's a Ghostbusters shooter !!

 OK, we cannot see the angle of the hills in this video of icey road conditions but really, don't these people know when to just stop trying to drive??? I don't drive but at least I have sat next to my mother, during days like that, enough times and she knew when to take her feet off the gas and let the car come to a rest. Doofusi.

 Heh heh heh, it's Gollum & Smeagol getting their barry white on. ( via the count, our barry white)

 Speaking of videos from Japan, how about some milk?

 It's a walking penis, no it's a schmoo, and that's a gibbering mouther but has no mouths and that's kinda rude and it's all more than a little weird. It's a Microsoft Zune 2006 TV commercial ?!?!?!

 Yah I knew I would love a website featuring a daily monster. Part of my brain says the inevitable, "I can do that!!" and I have done that. But I don't do that.

 I want to have the city drawing memory of Stephen Wiltshire, such as when he draws Rome from memory, but I want to draw massive imaginary cities. Imagine detailed renditions of Minas Tirith or D&D cities complete with taverns, Inns, gallows, barracks, etc.

 I tried playing with Line Rider but really, I didn't get and I sucked. But this video shows someone who really gets it. I have this sneaking suspicion that this exact statement describes me and life, in general.

 I was saying to Marmy yesterday about how naive I was as a kid "playing guns" with homemade wooden guns and shouting out "Bang!" Today, kids can actually attact each other with harmless projectile weapons or even a not so harmless LEGO Flamethrower. Pretend war could be hell.

 Except for one little aspect of The Battle of Farador, that little video did remind me of recent games of D&D with old timers. ( thanks moooooo)

 My category name for linking to videos is ' Vidiots'. It really applies in this webcam related video. BTW, couldn't we just call them 'YouTubies' as they all come from there now? ( marmy, ya don't blog it, ya lose it)

 I was once known as Po but I was never known as Master Po and this one is for my friends who are right now just recovering from their latest martial arts class.

 The video for Harrowdown Hills by Thom Yorke is a beautiful piece of work that makes use of the photography technique called Tilt Shift.

 Really, I probably blogged this before but it should be under the xBox category. It's that non-existant Banned Xbox 360 Ad.

 I once had an idea to start a new blogging phenomena. Instead of posting photos or links or thoughts & ponderings, I would post little videos. Those videos would be those short lil captures of the world that are about all you can do with the shitty quality of digital video from a P&S digital camera. Oh well...
 See, if Transformers had always been done in hot CGI, I might have liked teh show.

 I guess the point is to show their creativity? Whatever it is, it's a coute vide by Coudal Partners called "Copy Goes Here."

 Yep, it's spring and there is nothing like a Knee in my Package. I refuse to use the lil captures of the video.

 Migawds, the video demonstrating Spore Gameplay is just astounding! Imagine a massively multiplayer (but not the way you think) where you can go from evolving a lifeform (multicellular) all the way up to running a multi-system starfaring race. This could easily replace WoW as a lifestyle. Warning, please set aside a half hour to watch it all.

 Didn't I see this monowheel
in about 3 different animes?

 This is a great lightsabre duel but i have two questions. What was the last power he used? What were they fighting over?

 The popularity of the Chuck Norris Facts (if you haven't seen the link already, shame on you) is so apparent, our little group appears to be Chuck Norris fans in public. Now watch Chuck himself read from the list.

 My favourite thing about Fear of Girls ?? The shrine to their original white box D&D set in the background. I also notice they refuse to play 3.5 and are still adamantly playing AD&D. ( via a paused metrogeek)

 Heh heh heh, they are Katamari Hijinks. I could hear the sound effects of cats and people as he tried to roll them up.

 i know his 15 second of fame are now officially over when Jeopardy asks, " What is WoW?"

 SPOILER ALERT. If you actually care about the secret in the latest Harry Potter book, do not watch this video of a man ruining it for a bookstore line. *snicker*
