Best Player On Haifa, Israel’s Basketball Team: Jermaine Jackson

Posted: 28 Mar 2011 08:35 AM PDT

Last night I was scrolling through the guide on my cable box looking for something to watch. On the YES Channel (The cable network for the Yankees) there was a show airing called “Inside Israel Basketball.” It looked like something that had the potential to be groundbreakingly silly, so I put it on. I learned immediately is that the best player on Haifa’s professional basketball team is this guy:

His name is Jermaine Jackson. Hahahaha. Israel.

Guy With 2,747 Toothpicks In His Beard Explains Everything At The End Of Video

Posted: 28 Mar 2011 07:56 AM PDT

There is currently a video going around of a man who inserted a record breaking 2,747 toothpicks in his beard. The first minute and five seconds of the video are just that, a man putting the toothpicks in his beard, and we can charitably give the guy a 6.5 out of 10 for the effort. Where the video gets amazing, however, is just after the one minute five second mark when he very suddenly starts answering every question you could possibly have about what just happened. Most videos on the internet, no matter how short, will usually leave you with a couple of questions. This video leaves you with no fewer than six questions and they are all answered IMMEDIATELY. Ten out of ten for the answer section.

“Jesus, where is this guy from? And who on earth would take the time to shoot this for him? How long was he growing that thing for anyway? Does he still have it? And is this guy at all aware of how intense his accent is as he goes bald?” – You, but don’t worry. You’ll know soon enough.

Thanks, Buzzfeed.

When Richard Simmons Is Doing In-Flight Safety Videos, Maybe It’s Time To Lose In-Flight Safety Videos?

Here’s an instantly-viral in-flight safety video from Air New Zealand featuring Richard Simmons and a team of aerobic dancers teaching you how to stretch your way to safety! While I’m in favor of making any legally-mandated safety measure as ridiculous and gay as possible, when we’re at the point where Richard Simmons has to disco-stretch our safety instructions just to get us to not tune out the safety video for an additional few seconds, it miiiiight be time to just do away with airplane safety videos?

99% of the people seeing this will be people who’ve flown before thinking “Hm, what an amusing twist on that old boring obligated thing they always do,” and 1% will be people flying for the first time who actually need the safety instructions saying to themselves “What in the f***ing f*ck happens on these airplanes???”

I suppose as long as it’s saving lives, which it definitely is, the Richard Simmons video is totally harmless:
