Links to Fun Websites and Videos

[Michael]

This is the place to share or post a link to funny videos or websites that are really cool, fun places to visit, or are funny themselves, or have lots of jokes or some silly games, or just about any kind of interesting website.

Please remember to read The Rules regarding the posting of links to websites before you start posting links here. No adult content please. Just good clean fun!

Text stuff and naughty words are generally okay.

If you are easily offended by tasteless or silly humor, this is not the thread to see!

Have Fun!

Here's the first one... it is from Cracked Magazine (online). I loved this magazine when I was a kid.

If websites came with warning labels (http://www.cracked.com/article_16525_if-websites-came-with-warning-labels.html)

Here are some more...

immanuel, n. (from im-, not, + manual, guide or rulebook) A set of instructions for doing something that kant (q.v.) be done.

I didn't know people actually believed the spider one, and that "10% of the brain" has always annoyed me. I've previously said to people that say that, "if that's the case, wouldn't being shot in the head be preferable to just about anywhere else, what with the low chance of it hitting anything vital?"

Are you kidding? I think I first heard about the "8 spiders swallowed" when I was a kid.

And I always had to wait for a hour after eating before going swimming!!!

Good point about the brain though!

That link makes me think of Penn & Teller's Bullshit which is a great show in my opinion other than when they focus on political subjects which they treat with knee jerk libertarianism.

It's a good place to see videos, live performances, and interviews with some good indie bands. It's not the kind of music I listen to exclusively but it is a good place to discover new music.

An interesting and amusing 'scientific' approach to six common sexual myths.

http://www.cracked.com/article_16780_6-sex-myths-as-explained-by-science.html

I found it very interesting because I've always argued that it was quite logical (evolutionarily speaking) that men would tend to fall asleep immediately after sex.

I agree. I don't know why, but cats are funny. Seems that dogs used in similar type caption-photos just aren't quite as consistently or hilariously funny.

I guess it is the assumption that cats really are smart and ought to be able to talk that makes it work.

Seems that the changed meanings of the words "gay" and "boner" since the 1960's is the source of much humor, but still, some of these comic pages just have to be setup for this kind of humor...

I'm atheist, my wife a Jew and we volunteer at two Christian charities feeding those in need. We've rural and I'm unaware of any local atheist charity with the nearest temple being 45-miles away complete with leadership and a congregation far too progressive for my wife's conservative taste (their idea of a cantor is a fund-raiser for Israel complete with a guitarist/singer appearance by an Israeli on tour).

After volunteering at Jewish charities for years during our prior residence in Las Vegas we're now in the land of fundamentalist Christians and semi-fallen Catholics. I wouldn't give a dime or drop of sweat to their foreign ministries as they all spend most of it on education related to pro-life dogmatic positions, including US government aid. Teaching abstinence to starving people in exchange for food greatly offends my sense of morality.

If I can't determine exactly where my charitable contribution to society is going, especially if it might contribute to large overheads supporting a belief system, I don't want any part of it.

It was an ad for McDonalds.

He's not for drugs, but a few ounces of pot is OK. :lol: If he wasn't batshit crazy, I'd appreciate his endorsement.

Really? I'll admit it is mildly amusing (and very brief), but it didn't seem that funny! :ummm:

I've seen some pretty funny animated .gif files that are pretty damn funny (and also very brief).

Honestly, I have no idea why I love it so much. Something about that particular clip just cracks me up.

That's beyond me. Other than the sleeper people present seem to be concentrated on a single focal point (film, lecturer?). What makes it funny? When I saw the URL I was wondering if public libraries had opened their doors so homeless Asians could sleep there.

Just looked at who's online and now I understand.

There are homeless people in Siberia. Russians aren't affected by the cold. The fur hats and giant coats is just what's in style.

Wow. That was awesome, weird and disturbing all at the same time! :erm:

Only in Russia (I hope). Someone could get accidentally shot for that here in North America! (Unless of course they were transit cops which normally don't carry guns).

Actually, that's an "animated gif" - not all .gif's are animated.

[Margot]

Ah. I see.

But isn't an animated gif also a .gif? I mean, I see where I was wrong, but, well... All animated gifs are .gifs, even if not all .gifs are animated, no?

More importantly, the fucker is moving, correct?

Sorry, didn't see before. I have no idea, actually. lol Maybe some opposition activists trying to make a statement... And trying that with a male policeman would not end well for them.

Yes, all 'animated gifs' are .gif files, but not all .gif files are animated. :)

In case you are curious, the .gif format originates with Compuserve back in the early 1980's and is an acronym for Graphic Interchange Format. It was one of the earliest 'high-resolution' image formats.

For those seriously into trivia, the .jpeg is also an acronym: Joint Photographic Experts Group - it is a famously 'lossy' compression format. Btw, the old .tiff (common with Mac-types) stands for Tagged Image File Format.

For anyone who was around computers in the 1980's and early 1990's, image formats were a serious and complex issue.

More importantly, the fucker is moving, correct?
Hence the descriptive label "animated" (aka "animooted" on Chan boards).

Though most traffic jams end up on freeways, so you wouldn't be able to do that much.

I've been studying this topic for the last few years.

Suffice it to say that massive multi-lane roads are the absolute worst for traffic jams.

It would appear that Moscow's roads were designed for maximum congestion.

No surprise that's what you've got. :shrug:

This is our cat Georgia talking to me (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Js7xRZkwwi0) when I got home from work last week.

One of our friends said she sounds like a Mogwai. :lol:

[Margot]

Yuri, who is currently curled up in my lap, thoroughly enjoyed that video! He's the only cat I've ever had who will watch a computer/tv screen like a person.

My mother's cat loves to watch tv, but only if it is a nature/documentary with animals in it. :shrug:

Cat will sit on the floor about three feet in front of the tv to watch those kind of shows and ignores everything else.

I also had a friend whose cat liked watching hockey - though the cat was trying to catch the puck and would block the screen so you couldn't see the game! :lol:

Simple Truths:


SIMPLE TRUTH 1

Partners help each other undress before sex.

However after sex, they always dress on their own.

Moral of the story:

"In life, no one helps you once you're screwed."

SIMPLE TRUTH 2

When a lady is pregnant, all her friends touch the stomach and say "congrats".

But, none of them come and touch the man's penis and say "Good job".

Moral of the story:

"Hard work is never appreciated"

[Greendruid]

These are my new favourites for a while. These are not for the faint of heart - there is vomitting in every one of these, sometimes with close-ups of the process, sometimes just sound. It doesn't last long but it might gross some people out. The versions of history are so funny though and the actors' responses to the voice overs are hysterical.

Drunk History 1 - Alexander Hamilton (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6V_DsL1x1uY)

Drunk History 2 - Benjamin Franklin (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YjZR1Rjj_p0&feature=related)

Drunk History 2.5 - Benjamin Franklin likes to :erm: (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ABFQ-T3uAVI&feature=related)

Drunk History 3 - Oney Judge (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bqzUI1ihfpk&feature=related)

Drunk History 4 - William Henry Harrison (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CDukCTcITLY&feature=related)

Drunk History 5 - Fredrick Douglass and Abraham Lincoln (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ipV2u-MxlFc)

Indeed, that's a lot of snow you got there! :erm:

I have no comment about the locals...

(look on the brightside - at least you don't have polar bears wandering into town down there!)

That looks like soooooo much fun! I'd seriously consider doing something like that. He looks like he's making a good bit of speed too - probably 150kmph or the likes, maybe more. It's hard to tell but that last scene where he zips over the tourists looked pretty fast.
