Paul F. Tompkins Talks To Ty Burrell About Drinking And Obviously Watch This

Paul F Tompkins Ty BurrellHere’s the first installment of a new Paul F. Tompkins webseries called “Speakeasy” where the comedian sits down with guests to discuss the prides and perils of drinking (you can watch the trailer for the series here.)

It’s a sponsored webseries for MadeMan.com, but for once, it’s nice to see a sponsor have the internet-wherewithal to just say, “Hey, let’s let this comedian and other funny people talk and we’ll film it cause that’s actually something people would watch.” I mean, it’s not “Jennifer Aniston water commercial” legendary, but what in culture is or ever will be again?

Here’s Episode One, with Paul talking to Modern Family star (and future Mr. Peabody) Ty Burrell:

Vladimir Putin Scores Game-Winning Goal In Hockey Shootout; Goalie’s Family Lives

Here’s a clip of newly-reelected Russian President Vladimir Putin participating in an exhibition hockey game between a team of Amateurs (Putin’s team) and a “Legends Of Russia” team of former Russian professionals.

The game went into a shootout, and sure enough, Putin himself scored the game-winning goal on a decent backhand move against a goalie who was definitely trying to stop him to embarrass his country’s president in front of everyone. On a totally unrelated note, the goaltender’s body remains completely uranium-free:

Perhaps some shades of Homer ‘beating’ the Stonecutters with his “Royal Sampler”?

The Weirdest, Greatest Avengers Review You’ll Ever See

By now, we all pretty much know the critical consensus on The Avengers: Super-fun, super-crazy, and a little scattershot but in a chaotic and entertaining way. The reviews themselves, however, are usually incredibly boring and repetitive, and rarely contain upside-down talking chin people.

Instead, check out this video entitled “Two Chins Review The Avengers,” in which two weird, sentient upside-down chins explain in chinly detail why they loved the movie. It is entertaining and fittingly internet-nonsensical (though their observation that Ron Howard really knows how to make a movie is SPOT ON):

Obviously Watch This Tina Fey Between Two Ferns Clip

Here’s a clip of Tina Fey sitting down with Zach Galifianakis as part of his upcoming “Between Two Ferns” Comedy Central special. It’s two minutes long and obviously great and you should be watching it right now but I’m gonna type some more so it looks like I did something.

Here’s some more words to pad this post cause I am doing work! Really, just watch the video. Gonna go eat a sandwich. Got my sandwich. Eating the sandwich now. Good sandwich!

Video thing watch please:

My work here is done! Such good work I did here, copying and pasting that code and it being already great. Will be mailing the internet my invoice this afternoon (it’s still Invoices@NetBucks.info?)

Watch Comedian Hasan Minhaj Completely Dismantle The Ashton Kutcher PopChips Ads

Ashton Kutcher PopChips Indian AdLast week, Ashton Kutcher starred in a commercial for PopChips as a brownfaced, Bollywood-ish Indian character declaring the chips to be “The Bombay”. The ads were promptly taken down after a number of negative responses, and PopChips semi-apologized, saying the ads were only meant in good fun.

Here’s a video response to the ads from comedian Hasan Minhaj, who makes a compelling and hilariously passionate case for why the ads aren’t just regular commercial stupid, but they’re actually offensively hyperterrible, both on a quasi-racist level and on a “basic comedic logic” level.

The video response itself is, ironically, really funny (language NSFW):

“Kickboxer: Just The Kicking” Is One Minute Shorter Than The Movie Kickboxer

Kickboxer Supercut

Do you love the Van Damme movie Kickboxer, but just can’t stand all that boring down-time between kicks? (I know I begin a lot of posts with jokey, specific hypotheticals, but this time, I COMPLETELY FEEL THIS WAY).

Good news! Here’s every single kick from the movie Kickboxer kicked together into one kickin’ Supercut (kneeings included!) Basically, if you took this video and added the scene where the sensei drops the coconut onto Van Damme’s abs from a tree, you would have the entire movie Kickboxer:

My review? This punches ass!

Parents Love Watching Their Babies Almost Get Eaten By Lions: Exhibit B

I haven’t yet been blessed with a child I can take to the zoo and put in YouTube videos, so far be it from me to make any blanket statements about parenting. That being said, based solely on the laughter in this new lioness-trying-to-eat-a-baby video and last year’s classic lioness-trying-to-eat-a-baby video, it seems pretty clear that some part of every mother and father delights in the possibility that a big cat might come close to eating their baby. Oh, and us. I guess the rest of us like it, too. Now, I’m not saying anyone would get the giggles if a lion actually ate a baby but…just listen to those guffaws. Look at those fangs. The prosecution rests, Your Honor The Internet!

Hugvie The Robot Hugging Pillow: A Perfect Investment For The Forever Alone

When preparing for the rest of your isolated, touch-less existence, it can sometimes be a pain in the you-know-what figuring out what supplies you might need, other than heavy-duty Kleenex, soft sweaters of indeterminate color and lozenges for when your voice withers from alternating bouts of hysterical weeping and disuse.

So thank god for the Hugvie, right? It’s like hugging a human, but without all those complicated emotions and nuances and hands. If a loved one calls (a terrifically rare experience!), Hugvie even has vibrators that responds to the tone of their voice. That way if your mother is upset at you for buying a new robot torso instead of leaving your apartment occasionally, you can feel her heart beat quicker with hopeless love, and an ever-growing fear.

Did I mention the vibrators? I did, didn’t I?

Drunken Kickstarter Video Is The Only Honest Kickstarter Video

Drunk Kickstarter VideoHere’s a Kickstarter video from Brendan McLoughlin and Jenn Dodd, in which a drunken finance-seeking individual desperately attempts to raise money for his ambiguously artistic cause.

It is, without a doubt, the most accurate Kickstarter video ever recorded.

Unfortunately, this Kickstarter-parody does not itself have a Kickstarter donations-link, so I just smeared a wad of hundreds into the embed on my screen:

Mom Who Took 5-Year-Old Tanning Has A Lot Of Explaining To Do. Mostly About Her Face.

“Your honor, the prosecution seeks to prove that New Jersey resident Patricia Krentcil took her 5-year-old daughter tanning. The prosecution now instructs the jury to please just look at her face! Just look at it! Case closed, your honor! We can all go home early!”

The most bizarre part of this video, though, has to be Krentcil’s offended tone. “How could anyone think that I would do something insane and tanning bed-related? I have never heard anything more absurd in my life! I have to end this interview now. These gallons of furniture varnish aren’t going to rub themselves into my skin!”
