‘This’ is Hip-Hop
This must be from the late 80’s or early 90’s, but it is a video that teaches ‘hip-hop’ to white america. Now, ‘yes’ this is a badly produced video, but honestly, I think they had the best intentions.
Enjoy.

Ikea Heights
IKEA Heights from DaveAOK on Vimeo.
“Friend of Epic Fu and general good guy Dave Seger is one of the creators of Ikea Heights, a melodrama (read: understatement) set in an Ikea store in Burbank, California. And I mean they literally film the show in an Ikea store without the store’s knowledge, and with customers milling about.
They produced the show for Channel 101, the grandaddy of all funny video sites created by Dan Harmon and Rob Schrab that keeps on chugging along and discovering new talent. This is episode 1 of Ikea Heights. Check out the others on Vimeo (Episode 2, Episode 3, Episode 4) or at the Channel 101 show site.”
Goes to show that Guerilla film making is not only for the streets ….

iThe iPad is a Comedy Gold Mine
College Humor goes in again at Apple and their recent iPad device – which we all know, is such a bad name for a product, but I am sure we will get used to it – just like we got used to the ‘Nintendo Wii’.
Funny Double Entendre, pt 2
Funny Double Entendre’s, pt 2
All about ambiguity
Part 2 of the ‘Funny Double Entendre’ series (check pt.1 here), this time these are some funny newspaper headlines that are in a desperate need for an edit. The main literal problem with these headlines is the ambiguity in some of the word(s) – without the proper context, the headlines have multiple meanings.

Include Your Children When Baking Cookies
– the ambiguity lies in whether we put our children in the oven with the cookies, sounds like circa 1940’s Nazi Germany

Something Went Wrong in Jet Crash, Experts Say
– really? Could the fact that jet crashed already lead one to a conclusion that ‘something went wrong?’

Drunks Get Nine Months in Violin Case
– ‘Nine Months’ need to be explained – are the drunks put inside the violin case for a pregnancy term?

Couple Slain; Police Suspect Homicide
– newspaper headlines should be ran by at least three different copy editors
Black Belt Jones
Black Belt Jones
Afro Martial Artist
This is some funny shit straight out of the Blaxploitation film genre of the 1970’s. Now, we all have heard of the more popular Blaxploitation films like ‘Shaft’, ‘Foxy Brown’, and even ‘Dolomite’, but there were tons more – this is one of the ‘more’. Enter ‘Black Belt Jones’ – a martial arts fighting afro brother that has unique/funky way of fighting crime.

These are the bad movies that are so bad that it is actually ‘good’ – don’t ask me how that can be, but it happens. These days, bad movies are just bad.
Happy Festivus!
Festivus Greetings!
Spawned from a Seinfeld TV episode in 1997 as “A holiday celebrated by those frustrated with the commercialism and pressure surrounding the Christmas/Hanukkah season”, this secular holiday seasons has gained traction and is now practiced by millions of people across the world – I am sure seriously and jokingly. But really, this holiday is interesting to me nonetheless because I am sure it expresses feelings that many of us feel during the Christmas season; with the family members, shopping tribulations, awkward social dinners & parties, and so on. One could easily dub some of the elements of the Festivus holiday with a dose of ‘reality’; as the elements allow one to get as Young Jeezy said, “As Real as it Gets”. Enter the Rituals:
Airing of Grievances
The celebration of Festivus begins with the “Airing of Grievances”, which takes place immediately after the Festivus dinner has been served. It consists of lashing out at others and the world about how one has been disappointed in the past year.
– oh man, I am sure that many secretly wish & desire that they can do this – everyone can relate to this as I am sure there are many people you want to air out, fighter jet style, to let them know what you think of them and how they have disappointed you over the year(s).
Feats of Strength
“As described in the “Festivus Book”, the head of the household selects one person at the Festivus celebration and challenges that person to a wrestling match.[8] The person may decline if they have something else to do, such as pull a double shift at work. Tradition states that Festivus is not over until the head of the household is pinned in a wrestling match.”
Other Festivus rituals include the Festivus Dinner that usually includes a subpar dinner, and the Festivus Pole; which replaces the ‘Christmas tree’ with a simple, simple, simple facsimile (minus the trimmings). There are even books and a website to support and promote this holiday (http://www.festivusbook.com/), and on YouTube many people have recorded their celebrations to share the world.
Even a company is making a business out of making a ‘Festivus Pole’, SMH
In all, I am sure the creator of Festivus, which is one of the Seinfeld writers “Dan O’Keefe”, never thought that this holiday would be what it is today, but I guess when you connect with what people are feeling, anything can happen …. Happy Festivus to all!

Poor Tiger
This story keeps unfolding and getting worse for Tiger Woods, but with most public tragedies come some creative humor – at the expense of some.
